This therapy belongs to the category of alternative healing methods. "Chakra" is a Sanskrit word and literally means "spinning wheel". Chakras are the "junctions" on our body; the "energy centres", all corresponding to a certain part of the body and the relevant body parts and organs. They are not visible and you will not find anything about them in the regular medical books.
When these chakras are being activated by treatment, the Universal Energy (also known as Prana) will be stimulated to move the chakra's faster and arouse a stronger energy at a higher frequency. This will induce the organs, nerve system and endocrine glands to do their work properly and without blockages due to emotions, piled up within you because you never dealt with them or faced them.
There are 7 main chakras, and every chakra has its own colour: (for more details about each chakra, see below)
| Name | Location | Colour | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | root or base chakra | At the very base of the spine | red |
| 2 | sacral chakra | Just below the navel | orange |
| 3 | solar plexus | between the navel and sternum, just below lower ribs | yellow |
| 4 | heartchakra | at the heart | green |
| 5 | throat chakra | at the throat | blue |
| 6 | "3rd eye"/brow chakra | between the eyes | indigo |
| 7 | crownchakra | juist above the top of your head | violet |
Details:
There are several methods of chakra-therapy, but basically they all have the same effect: stimulating the chakras with the help of Universal Energy and thus stimulating the relevant body parts and organs and bringing body and mind into balance; helping you to "grow" on your spiritual path and helping you to feel more energetic.
Treatment doesn't take much time. The client is sitting or lying down, fully dressed. Apart from the chakras, there are a number of other spots included in the treatment, several "acupoints", to complete the treatment. This healing method is a so called holistic one, meaning that not only the ailment, disease or problem is being treated, but that your whole "being" is taken into consideration; it works on a physical, emotional and spiritual level. So the whole being is regarded instead of just the symptoms.Working with Universal Energy can be done beside regular medical treatment, but not instead of medical treatment in a number of cases. It is a supportive therapy, aiming to improve and speed up the healing process or, if no special problems, a higher energy level. This method has shown very effective. You, yourself, can also work with and stimulate your chakras. There are videos, DVD's and books available on this subject.
