What is Polarity Therapy?
Polarity Therapy is an energy based healthcare system that acknowledges the story of your life is written in our body in the various layers of your tissues and your bio-energy system.
Polarity Therapy (PT) is based on the premise that almost all discomfort and dis-ease have their basis in blocked energy and that as everything in the body is seamlessly, connected, working with the body as one integrated whole, is essential to healing.
The goal of Polarity Therapy is to support the free flow of life force energy throughout the body-mind, to resolve discomfort, release tension, restore flexibility and to support you in feeling more at ease in body, mind and emotions.
- Energy Based Bodywork
- Energy Exercises
- Food Awareness & Natural cleansing protocols
- Self Awareness & Health Mentorship
The term ‘polarity’ acknowledges that opposite poles of energy must exist for energy to flow.

The 4 Pillars of Polarity Therapy
Bodywork: The most commonly practised modality in PT is Polarity bodywork which uses three qualities of touch that can vary from light to stimulating and deep.
Polarity bodywork helps the body dissolve deep physical & emotional tensions and the energetic patterns that accompany them.
Cleansing Protocols & Food Awareness: .
A toxic and congested body hinders free-flowing life energy so where appropriate Polarity Therapy can also include cleansing and rebuilding healthy cells and tissues with Living Foods
Movement: Where appropriate Polarity Therapy can also include the use of gentle restorative movement to keep the energy system working well after sessions.
Self Awareness:
The Polarity process provides an opportunity to slow down and be present in our body enabling obstructions to be gradually, gently and safely released, so we can connect with our deeper self and experience a deeper feeling of being alive.
What Are The Roots Of Polarity Therapy?
Polarity Therapy is rooted in the knowledge and experience of traditional systems of healing.
Over several decades beginning in the 1930’s Dr Randolph Stone DO, DC, ND (1890-1981) a medical doctor, osteopath, naturopath and chiropractor, based in Chicago, Illinois, searched for an understanding of the deeper causes of health and disease.
Much of Dr Stone’s explorations were inspired by his yearning for spiritual knowledge and disillusionment with the medical and bodywork approaches of the day, which he found to be overly specialized and mechanistic.
Recognizing they had a great deal to offer Dr Stone turned to the ancient cultures of the world and their healing arts that have been used and comprehended for thousands of years.
As a result of over 60 years spent travelling the world and extensive study, he realized that most ancient systems of healing are founded on a premise long forgotten in Western medicine – the premise of life Energy which is influenced by touch, diet, movement, sound, attitude, relationships and environmental factors.
Through studying energy based knowledge from around the world he was able to discern a detailed understanding of the energetic principles of healing and ways to apply them practically; resulting in a simple clear and accessible approach to wholistic healthcare that he called ‘Polarity Therapy’.

What To Expect
The first appointment includes taking a case history to get clear about the reason for your visit your medical history your health goals and to understand the whole picture including: way of life, nutritional habits, digestion, sleep patterns, work, environmental influences, relationships, and sources of stress.
After the consultation you will be invited to lay comfortably on a treatment table fully clothed. You will be offered towels and blankets to keep you warm and comfortable if you prefer.
In Polarity sessions we work with the nervous system, structural and energetic, aspects of the body, to release blockages and imbalances in energy flow that can contribute to pain and restriction on a physical, emotional, and spiritual level.
During sessions contacts that range from rocking motions to pressure and light touch are used to find tender and congested areas. As the movement of life energy is gradually restored the body no longer has to work so hard at holding tension and restriction enabling more energy to become available for the natural healing process.
Although each persons experience will be unique during a session clients often experience a release of physical or emotional tension and a deep relaxation of the mind.
This may also be accompanied by sensations such as tingling, prickling, warmth and streaming indicating that flow is improving and that frozen states are dissipating.
The therapeutic benefits will continue to unfold in the subsequent hours and days after your polarity session.
Polarity Therapy is not intended as a replacement for primary healthcare but as a complement to primary healthcare
“All energy blocks are expressed as pain because the current is interrupted there. Then the temple needs house cleaning and intelligent guidance in order to re-establish its own energy polarity current flow”.
“In this age of specialization with emphasis on chemistry, bacteriology and mechanical and surgery research, we have lost sight of the overall picture of man as a living being with lines of force working in fields of finer energy. “
