The energy field surrounds and permeates all living beings. It is the scaffolding for our physical body. Within the energy field of each person are seven major centers. Each of these centers energizes or vitalizes its related nerve center, endocrine gland, and internal organ system: the circulatory system. It is within this energy field that the cause of disease appears to be located. Through training, a practitioner can learn to work with areas that are weak or congested within the energy field, and by use of various balancing techniques, can bring the patient's energy field to a more flowing, healthy, harmonious state.
