What Is Energy Medicine?
Marcia Rowland practices Donna Eden's Energy Medicine. It is primarily an Eastern approach to health and healing, although it incorporates effective techniques from around the world. It works with the"invisible" or "subtle" energies of the body's nine energy systems (see sidebar). Just as we know that x-ray, magnetic, radio, solar, and other types of energies exist by seeing their effect, our bodies also have invisible or subtle energies as well.

Answers
What types of problems can Energy Medicine be used with?
Energy Medicine can be effective with virtually any problem—autoimmune diseases, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, eating disorders, hormone problems, back pain, muscle pain, and much more. It can even work to improve immunity, athletic performance, mental clarity, reading and comprehension problems, and reduce healing time from injury or surgery.
Our problems arise when our energies are not balanced. Balancing the body's energies has a powerful and profound impact on our wellness.

What will I experience in a session?
Energy Medicine is performed while you are fully-clothed, either lying on a massage table, sitting, or standing. Numerous modalities, including acupressure, touch, tapping, colors, magnets, and crystals, are used, depending on the nature of the problem. You will be given easily-learned techniques to do yourself at home.
Energy Medicine draws on the most effective techniques from Qigong, acupressure, Chinese medicine, and techniques from India and South America as well as many other parts of the world.

If I can't see the energy you're working with, how do I know if there is a problem? And if there is one, whether it has been corrected?
Through the use of testing chi energy through various muscles (applied kinesiology) I can show you where an energetic problem exists and demonstrate its correction. You will be able to see and experience it for yourself.
Back to Frequently Asked Questions
Can Energy Medicine be used with other treatments?
Because it works with the body's energies, Energy Medicine can be complementary to other treatments or used on a stand-alone basis.
Back to Frequently Asked Questions
Do you diagnose or treat disease?
No. Unlike the Western approach to medicine, Energy Medicine does not diagnose and treat disease. It identifies and corrects underlying energy system imbalances. When energy in all your body's nine energy systems is in balance and flowing freely, the result is optimized health, wellness, and increased joy and well-being.

What's great about Energy Medicine is that it teaches people to do what they can for themselves. The Five-Minute Daily Routine is easy to perform and has a major positive impact on your life. It's so easy that it can and should be done every day by all of us. Other easy-to-do techniques tailored to your body's particular needs will be given to you to help minimize the number of sessions needed, allowing you to be a part of your own healing process. Teaching you techniques for self-care empowers you to be in control of your own body and reduces the need for repeated visits over an extended period of time.

How many sessions will I need?
Although some people see results immediately, everyone is different. I will be better able to tell you after your initial session. Also, the more willing you are to participate in your home care techniques, the more rapid your progress will be.
Back to Frequently Asked Questions
Everybody is different. The first session will take about two hours. Subsequent sessions last from one to two hours on average. You can choose the length of your sessions when you schedule your appointments.
