Consultation
Every session - and the first session could take a bit longer, I sit down with the client and ask some standard medical questions to which I need as much information on, as possible. The more information the client gives me, whether it be any one of the 4 problems (physical, emotional, spiritual, or mental) the better I would know what to look for when I do the assessment, and the better I know how to treat the client.
Assessment
Where I scan the patient from head to toe, firstly down the middle, then on either side of the body. By scanning I mean I hold my hands a few cm's above the clients body, then run my hands down from the head, to the toes. With an assessment I am able to pick up problem areas - where there is a problem, the energy will feel warm, sometimes hot - depending on the intensity of the problem, sometimes cold. "Problems" as I refer to them can be either Physical, Emotional, Spiritual or Mental. Yes, our emotions can make our bodies physically ill, and emotions cause physical pain, discomfort and physical problems with in the body. Once a "problem" has been detected, I will discuss it with the patient to see if it resonates. If not, we will investigate further.
