Polarity 

VENUE: HINCKLEY

TUTOR: JAN BENHAM

Polarity is the science of balancing the life energy in the body. The entire body is viewed as an energy field with specific circuits and patterns or currents. These  currents originally built the body and continue to operate until we leave it. Disease occurs when these currents short-circuit or get blocked by our emotions and stress, pollution, the world we live in etc. All body currents have an electric charge, either positive, negative or neutral. By understanding the relationships of the different currents and their charges, we can then proceed to balance them with our mind, body and spirit. This accomplished by the gentle contact of our hands, using love, positive thoughts and attitudes, manipulations, exercise and diet.
In this course you will learn about the five elements ether, air, fire, earth and water, how to activate and balance them with gentle manipulations. This course gives added understanding to why the body works the way it does, why does one person respond to Thai yoga massage, whilst another person needs gentle lymphatic drainage massage or Qi drop therapy?
