POLARITY THERAPY Overview Information
Polarity therapy is a type of "energy medicine" that uses several techniques to alter energy flow and energy balance in the body.
Polarity therapy is used for fatigue, stress, anxiety, depression, osteoarthritis, pain, cancer-related fatigue, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.
How does it work?
Polarity therapy is referred to as "energy medicine" because it uses several techniques to influence energy flow and energy balance in the body. Practitioners believe that energy imbalances, disturbances, or blockages result in disease and can be corrected.

POLARITY THERAPY Dosing
Polarity therapists use a variety of techniques to manipulate energy flow and balance, the most common of which is touch or physical manipulation. Polarity therapy uses bipolar contact, which involves applying both hands to the body at once, with each hand on an "opposing location". Other techniques might include movements and exercise called polarity yoga, nutrition or dietary changes, and counseling. Some of these methods can include practices similar to reflexology, chiropractic, cranial sacral therapy, and others.
