HEALING TOUCH is a type of healing using hands-on energy-based techniques to balance and align the human energy field. It was developed by Janet Mentgen, RN, BSN in Denver, CO. circa 1980 becoming an internationally endorsed practice in 1996. It is a certified scientific program which requires many hours of training and experience. Techniques integrate conventional and alternative therapies to prevent and treat disease promoting optimal health. It includes analysis of physical, nutritional, environmental, emotional, spiritual and lifestyle elements to achieve an unlimited and unimpeded free flow of life force energy through body, mind and spirit. This energetic practice can be used anywhere, anytime, with almost anybody. There is no special preparation required. A quiet, calm environment promotes rest. Clients may sit or lay down (fully clothed) to receive a treatment which involves gentle hand contact, both on and off the surface of the body. The individual practitioner may use crystals, aromatherapy or other integrative techniques during the session.

Some reported benefits of Healing Touch are:
• Deep Relaxation • Pain Reduction • Increased Wound Healing
• Sense of Well-being • Reduction of Hypertension
• Enhanced Healing • Reduced Agitation
• A Sense of Clarity and Focus
REIKI (ray-key) is a natural healing technique that feels like a flow of a high frequency of energy into and through a practitioner, and out the hands into another person. Mikao Usui, a Japanese man, discovered Reiki around 1922. While seeking how famous healers like Buddha and Christ healed the sick without depleting their own inner energy, he experienced a very spiritual vision in which the meaning of life was made clear to him. He then spent three years discovering how he could attain this energy. He used this force on family and friends successfully so began its use on the public. He also found he could easily transfer the ability to access and use this energy to anyone.

Barbara Mader has learned this technique and uses it with expertise and gratitude. She aligns the energy centers in the body and fills it with the "universal life force energy" or "Reiki" for health maintenance and disease prevention.

ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD BALANCING; EMF. There is an electromagnetic field around all things that conduct electricity, including the human body. A human field holds all of the past and all future potential. EMF Balancing Technique is a new energy system designed to enhance and accelerate the integration of Spirit and biology so that you can improve your health and overall well-being and co-create the miracle of your God-self.
CRYSTAL THERAPY uses crystals as a tool for healing. The human body is a series of energy systems. Crystals are devices for adjusting and balancing these systems. Quartz crystals are used along with the Wheel of Life pendant to create powerful healing results. Many Native American Indian tribes including the Cherokee have used these tools for centuries.
FLOWER REMEDIES uses a system of healing designed to treat the person, not the ailment. The remedies address emotional imbalances that may block a positive state of mind. A positive mind promotes a healthy body. Barbara often combines the use of these "essences" when giving a Healing Touch session. They help restore balance and harmony within the subject.
SOUND HEALING OR TONING is one of the oldest forms of healing. It is used to restore the body's harmony and balance through the use of vocalizations allowing a healthy resonant frequency. No musical or voice experience is necessary as each voice is unique and carries its own healing qualities, from the sea lion's bark to the dolphin's shrill cry, and can be expressed solely or from within a group setting. Drums, bells, cymbals and other simple percussion instruments may also be used. A healthy body is harmonically balanced so that every organ, bone, tissue and other parts have an optimum resonant frequency producing a perfectly tuned being.
SRT - SPIRITUAL RESPONSE THERAPY is a system of researching the subconscious mind and soul records to quickly find and release the discordant, limiting ideas and replace them with loving, supportive ideas and beliefs. SRT provides an exacting, powerful, virtually painless and accurate way of changing the landscape of our inner and outer lives, enabling us to live our lives more freely. This "research," which is accomplished with the help of higher guidance (your "Higher Self"), includes finding past life energies, subconscious blocks, and negative soul programming. Once identified, these blocks and negative energies can be cleared from the subconscious, soul (Akashic) records, allowing you to heal yourself on all levels. SRT was developed by Robert E. Detzler, and has been used by thousands of students since 1988. With Spiritual Response Therapy, you use your muscle responses to bypass your conscious mind and negative programming to connect with subconscious and your guidance within. A pendulum is used as a movement amplifier and pointer as you communicate with your Higher Self using a special set of charts. You can replace old programs with positive energy and inner peace. The result of this work has assisted thousands of people to live clearer, more joyful lives.
SHAMANIC HEALING & JOURNEYING; Shamanism is the spiritual practice that our ancestors used to learn about their surroundings, to communicate with the spirits and to heal themselves. We are descended from shamanic cultures and because of this, we still have that link to our environment: the truth of our interconnectedness has never changed ... we simply fell asleep and lost touch. A contemporary Shamanic Practitioner and Healer blends ancient and contemporary wisdom. Using the techniques our ancestors used, the practitioner can contact the Spiritual beings of our environment, and, with the help, guidance and teachings of Spirit Teachers, enable a person to find their path to well being and wholeness. Journeying is a classic technique and is practised in one form or another by Shamans all over the world. Journeying enables you to send your Dream Body or Spirit into the Spirit World and is a powerful way of meeting with Power Animals, Spirit Teachers, finding answers to problems or to discover information and wisdom that can facilitate your personal growth and understanding. Soul Retrieval is another aspect of Shamanistic practice allowing an individual to recapture pieces of their selves lost during tramatic episodes.
