How long does a session last?
Your
first Bioenergy Balancing session will last 1 1/2 hours. This is
due to the fact that you will need to fill out a personal history/intake
form for your first session. This provides us with background on
your health and other concerns. Subsequent appointments are generally
1 to 1-1/2 hours depending on the amount of time you request.

2. How many sessions will it take
for me to achieve results?
Generally
people experience significant results after their first appointment.
Depending on severity of your health problem or emotional issue
and the number of times it may have been reinforced during your
lifetime, it may take several sessions to fully address the complexity
of a significant issue. For instance, someone with a chronic
health problem that has been in place for years may require a series
of appointments in order to unravel the many layers of similar events
that have intensified the impact now being experienced in the body.
Other matters, however, can clear up in one or two sessions.
Many people also come to view Bioenergy Balancing as a vehicle
for personal growth, and enjoy periodic appointments as a means
of self discovery. It is very revealing in a non-threatening
way, and, over time, it can significantly shift the quality of your
physical and emotional responses so they become more consistent
with your current, conscious intentions.

Do I have to travel to the BBC? Where is it located?
The Bioenergy
Balancing Center Ð East Bay is located in the Richmond Hills of
the San Francisco Bay Area in California, USA. All appointments
must be scheduled in advance. In-person appointments are available
at the Center. Phone appointments are also available and are similarly
effective. Since Bioenergy Balancing takes place on an energetic
level, and energy is not limited to the space/time domain, an individual's
energy can be "brought in" and work can be done on a remote
basis.

What results can I expect?
People's
experiences vary. Many people remark that the shifts they experienced
were subtle but profound. During a session an individual's experience
is generally one of deep relaxation, insight and release. Occasionally
an individual will tear up at the recollection of an event or memory
that has caused an energy blockage and is being released. The expression
of extreme emotion is rare, though significant events are, in fact,
released. After a session, people generally remark that they feel
like they have experienced an important shift energetically. We
recommend that people give themselves some room to experience these
changes and to allow them to settle in. People tend to notice changes
in symptoms and emotional patterns within a few days. Often when
a person returns for a follow-up appointment his/her initial symptoms
have cleared up so completely that they nearly forget the weight
these problems previously had. Now familiar with the results available
through Bioenergy Balancing, individuals are generally eager to
move forward into other health/well being matters.

How frequently should I schedule my appointments?
We recommend
that a person wait between two and three weeks between appointments
to let the results fully settle in. If you decide to come
more often, this is fine. Some people choose to schedule appointments
for every week, over a period of time, or every two weeks. You
can make that choice.

Do you talk about nutrition or supplements?
Yes. Given
the fact that Bioenergy Balancing is founded in both the Eastern
traditions of chi (body energy) and also Western principles of physiology
and biochemistry, we pay considerable attention to how the body
is using nutrients. Depending on a client's presenting concerns,
we often investigate food allergies, metabolic pathways and whether
the body is, in fact, using the B-vitamins and minerals it is getting
from food and supplement sources. We do not promote a particular
diet or regime other than recommending wholesome foods from organic
sources. When the body flags a problem with a specific food,
we trace and release the source of the negative association that
generally underlies such an allergy. If the body requests
specific supplementation we consult the body consciousness as to
the dosage, duration and time-of-day it considers optimum.
Nutritional supplements are in addition to the appointment cost,
though we recommend as few as possible. We think of them as
a jump-start to encourage the body to function better on its own.

Will it be uncomfortable physically or emotionally?
Generally
speaking, Bioenergy Balancing is not uncomfortable. No doubt
the process involves identifying and resolving matters in the past
which for some contain traumatic content. These issues, however,
come to the surface and unfold as a non-invasive conversation between
the body consciousness, the Practitioner and the client. The
dialogue, which occurs by means of muscle testing, is concerned
with precisely identifying how incidents are being held energetically
by the body. Therefore, the client witnesses the process from
a different perspective than if they were unearthing the past either
emotionally, as in therapy or physically, as in deep tissue massage.
A client often recalls the content of an incident and may
re-experience some of the emotion, but Bioenergy Balancing does
not rely on intense emoting as a means of release. Rather
the Practitioner works efficiently to guide the body in its release
of the "charge" or energy blockage. This is accomplished
through a gentle tracing of the specific meridians that the body
has identified as holding helpless feelings associated with the
incident.

What is the history/track record of Bioenergy Balancing as a healing
discipline?
Bioenergy
Balancing was originally created by Priscilla Kapel approximately
20 years ago in Palo Alto, California, USA. Priscilla developed
the work from her extensive background in massage therapy, Applied
Kinesiology™ , biochemistry, anatomy and human physiology.
Pricilla is the Director of the Bioenergy Balancing Center
in Palo Alto where she runs a full clinical practice as well as
a two year training program for Practitioners. Through her
clinical practice, Priscilla has honed the fundamentals of Bioenergy
Balancing while remaining open to discoveries that guide the work
into new areas of effectiveness. People who have experienced
Bioenergy Balancing first hand have attributed profound healing
results to the work. Bioenergy Balancing is a vibrational
healing art, however, and as such, it does not purport to be a fact
or data based discipline. Although there is considerable anecdotal
evidence about its positive effects, no scientific research has
yet taken place to statistically demonstrate results. Referrals
to this work occur primarily through word-of-mouth Ð which has resulted
in a booming practice for Priscilla and many of her (over twenty)
trained Practitioners.

Can Bioenergy Balancing work in conjunction with Western medical
doctors or other healthcare providers?
We rely
on medical doctors and other healthcare specialists to provide the
critical research, diagnostic and treatment services so many often
need. Bioenergy Balancing does not constitute treatment nor is it
medical or diagnostic in nature. It is not a substitute for qualified
medical, therapeutic, or chiropractic care although it can work
in a complementary fashion with any or all of these disciplines.
Our commitment at the Bioenergy Balancing Center East Bay is to
a relationship of partnership, respect, consultation and referrals
in the healthcare community, across all disciplines, to provide
optimum healthcare for people everywhere.
