FAQ's

What's the cost?
The Integrated Energy Medicine Training Program is made up of several different courses, each with their own individual costs. Please see our individual class pages for details.

What is Energy Medicine?
Energy Medicine is the delicate balance of the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual states. Whenever one of these is cut off from any of the others, the system is thrown into imbalance. This results in severe emotional and psychological states, such as depression, eating disorders and addiction, or it can manifest in the body as illnesses such as cancer, irritable bowel syndrome, and chronic fatigue, to name a few. Energetic imbalance also manifests subtly in the form of mood fluctuations, headaches, and other less serious issues.

What issues can be addressed with Energy Medicine?
The material taught in the Integrated Energy Medicine Training Program is used to enhance any healing practice. It provides the practitioner a greater understanding of the nature of imbalance and more tools with which to address that imbalance. In addition, the program provides a context for understanding the complexity of disease and the ways in which it manifests.

What are the prerequisites for participating in the program?

How can I apply the material I learn in this program to my daily life?

The Integrated Energy Medicine Training Program provides you with the tools and information to understand the energetic underpinnings of most interactions.

How can I apply the material I learn to my current healing or counseling practice?
The material contained in the Integrated Energy Medicine Training Program will inform you about your clients’ issues at deeper levels than you ordinarily would perceive.

By understanding these things, you will be able to better identify the source of imbalance in clients, in ways you otherwise might miss.
