Center of Energy Medicine provides holistic healing techniques designed to restore balance to the body, such as Reiki, Pranic Healing, Acupuncture and tapping fingers over specific meridians points.
EM uses subtle energy fields to assess and treat energetic imbalances within human systems, returning them back into homeostasis (balance). This may provide the key to understanding health and illness better.
Reiki
Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a noninvasive healing practice designed to unblock energy pathways within the body and facilitate its natural healing abilities. There are no known side effects and it’s safe for use on children, pregnant women, cancer patients and people who use energy medicine (EM). Energy Medicine employs energy-based therapies like Reiki or REMI Healing Arts as part of its holistic healing approach and may treat physical, emotional or spiritual conditions such as anxiety, stress relief or chakra balancing.
EM practitioners use light touch or hover over the body while concentrating their attention on each chakra – believed to be gateways to spiritual, mental and physical well-being – with energy healers believing if these centers become blocked they could lead to illness or stress. A reiki practitioner acts as conduit of life force energy that flows through your body connecting you to the universe.
There has been some research supporting reiki’s benefits, though its studies are too poorly designed to demonstrate its efficacy definitively. While its results may have been positive and many patients find it relaxing, further investigation should be performed before drawing firm conclusions about reiki as therapy.
2021 research concluded that participants receiving reiki twice weekly for six weeks reported significantly reduced levels of depression and anxiety compared to participants in a control group. They also experienced decreased blood pressure and pulse rates as evidence that the therapy had relaxing benefits.
At a session, those receiving Reiki lie fully clothed on either a massage table or chair and the reiki practitioner places his or her hands over at least 12 areas on or above their body, including over each of the seven main energy centers. A typical 60-minute reiki treatment typically lasts around an hour with practitioners discussing what they hope to gain from it with clients before placing his or her hands over these spots. Reiki does not require clients to remove clothing; thus making it suitable and safe treatment option for pregnant women, children and those diagnosed with cancer alike.
Face Readings
Chinese medicine sees the face as a representation of all Five Elements, which serve as the cornerstone of health and wellness. Each element corresponds with one season. Face reading can assist in recognizing imbalances within each season as well as emotional traumas from past experiences that contribute to mental, physical, or emotional imbalances.
Face reading combined with acupuncture and energy healing can reveal the source of many ailments and prevent their recurrence. For instance, digestive issues often result from an imbalance of either liver or gallbladder function; once discovered through face reading this can be addressed with appropriate treatments (acupuncture treatments, herbs or diet changes).
Face reading can be an invaluable asset in matchmaking, providing insights into communication styles, expectations, perspectives that could cause relationship difficulties or lead to breakups. Furthermore, face reading reveals which facial features make for healthy partnerships – this knowledge can aid dating, narrow down potential matches or address current relationships more efficiently.
Lauren will assess two close up photographs of your face taken without makeup in natural lighting and with neutral expression. Preferably one should be an image from the front while one from the side would also be beneficial. Furthermore, any facial treatments or products which could discolor or harm your skin must also be avoided prior to having a reading done.
Lauren Muney is a Ling and Golden Path Master face reader who trained with Lillian Bridges of Dr. Oz fame. She now teaches face reading internationally as well as locally at Virginia’s Center of Energy Medicine – she offers 30 or 60 minute online Zoom readings that are highly educational, entertaining, and fun – perfect for parties, icebreakers, and group events!

Classes
Energy medicine – which encompasses holistic methods that promote balance and wellness – offers students an exciting opportunity to develop the necessary skills necessary for working in complementary wellness environments. Students will develop foundational energy practices such as chakra theory, intuitive awareness training techniques and vibrational techniques.
Energy medicine rests on the idea that our bodies’ energy systems are intimately interwoven with physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of being. When therapeutic energy healing methods are combined with modern healthcare modalities for client treatment, positive client outcomes emerge. Music/sound therapy; therapeutic touch/healing touch; qigong; acupuncture; reflexology and craniosacral therapies are some examples of energy-based therapies used in energy medicine treatments.
Traditional allopathic or Western medicine typically focuses on physical aspects of human beings, while we now recognize that humans possess both internal and external non-physical attributes that characterize our energetic field (also called biofield), such as electromagnetic fields, biophoton emissions and voltage potentials across cell membranes which regulate ion flux. Our future in EM lies in merging biology and physics in order to understand why disruptions in coherence of energy patterns could indicate disease or aging – this requires developing technologies which generate objective empirical evidence in these subtle domains.
