Polarity Therapy

Polarity Therapy MapPolarity Therapy is a hands-on modality of bodywork that works with movement of energy in the body. It recognizes that we are all animated by energy, or life-force, and that energy needs to be flowing freely for there to be optimal health.

It recognizes that our life-force is imbued with intelligence that guides the functioning of our bodies and also the healing. By helping the free flow of energy in the body I can help the innate healing capacities to express.

During a session I, as a practitioner, use my hands on my client’s body to facilitate the movement of energy through different parts of their body.

Polarity Therapy can be of great benefit for:

  • symptoms of pain or tension
  • recovery from injuries/accidents and surgeries
  • regulating the fight/flight state in the nervous system
  • increasing overall vitality and wellbeing
  • getting in touch with a deep state of being
  • emotional healing and spiritual connection

History of Polarity Therapy

The founder of Polarity Therapy, Dr. Randolph Stone ( 1890 – 1981) was an Osteopath, a Naturopath and a Chiropractor and had extensive knowledge of Ayurveda ( the ancient healing science of India). He combined his knowledge of all of those systems into Polarity Therapy. Apart from using bodywork, Polarity includes self-awareness, diet and energy exercises to work with one’s own health.

More about Polarity Therapy

Since much of Polarity Therapy comes from Ayurveda, it includes the chakra system and the ayurvedic five elements.  Through the map of the five elements we can work on the physical, as well as emotional and energetic levels.

What does a Polarity session look like?

If we do not combine Polarity Therapy with Massage Therapy, then you do not have to remove any clothing.  You will be lying on a massage table for most of the session as I use my hands to touch your body with light or sometimes deeper pressure or use movement and rocking when needed.  The work tends to be deeply relaxing.

We might also be exploring emotional issues if desired and things to do at home to support your healing process.

I am a creative and ambitious person with a tendency to work too hard, fill my calendar with too much, and drink way too much coffee to get through it all. Overall I have a healthy lifestyle, but my stressful (and fun) lifestyle is hard on my nervous system. When I saw Ines, I was looking for an enjoyable massage that might relax some knots I carry in my calves and shoulders. What I received was far more than I could have imagined. I received the enjoyable massage for sure, but Ines also introdu…

Last spring I experienced severe low back pain for the first time in my life, where I could not sleep, I could not sit or work.  I went to see Ines for Ortho-Bionomy sessions to find relief.  I was expecting that fire must be fought with fire – that only deep pressure would make a difference to pain this intense.  When Ines started to work with subtle movements I thought I got roped into some Boulder BS, that this surely wouldn’t effect any change.  To my surprise I found that after 2 sessions m…

I was really pleased with the results of my 5-month old daughter having six sessions with Ines. Before we came in, my daughter, Cailyn, held her head to the right side much more often than the left and seemed to have a sensitive spot at the back of her head. At times she had a hard time calming down or going to sleep. After Ines helped to release some tension, we noticed her movements were much more symmetrical, the extra sensitivity at the back of her head was gone and there was a dramatic diff…

I got into a car accident in which I suffered impact from significant whiplash. I worked extensively with both a neuromuscular massage therapist and a chiropractor. After one year of care, I noticed that I had sustained injury. This is when I began to work with Ines. I specifically sought out working with Ines because of her combined expertise in massage, craniosacral therapy, and trauma re-negotiation. I knew that the combination of these three modalities, given from an expert practitioner, cou…

Before we started working with Ines, my son was experiencing some pronounced anxiety, hyperactivity, inability to follow classroom expectations and sensory processing challenges. Through cranio sacral therapy, Ines was able to significantly help reduce my son’s challenging behaviors. He was noticeably calmer, better focused and less anxious in the days following a session with Ines. We even saw improvements in his fine motor skills and a significant decrease in his emotional meltdowns. Our …

I started seeing Ines for massage therapy, but quickly found that she offers much, much more. I’ve continued working with her during a time of stressful life changes because her unique ability to combine massage with other powerful therapeutic techniques provides such a deeply nourishing experience. Ines is a healer with remarkable skill, insight and genuine warmth… her approach is empowering! This work integrates support for mind, body and spirit… helps me connect to my inner strengths……
