TELEHEALTH HEALING AKA DISTANCE HEALING IS DEFINED AS MENTAL FOCUS OR INTENTION DIRECTED TO THE RESTORATION OF HEALTH OF AN INDIVIDUAL NOT IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE SENDER.

How could mind-body medicine work in the first place, let alone make a difference when done at a distance (telehealth healing)?

THE MIND-BODY ANGLE

In mind-body medicine, we honor the impact of our beliefs, mindsets, stresses and emotions on our physical health…mountains of research support this connection! We know from the latest science, that our immune function is the most impacted system by stress and emotional swings. Telehealth healing can be an option for you to explore and make this connection from the safety of your own home.
Chronically stressed? Angry? Fearful? Feeling threatened by the financial and work uncertainty? Unsure what is safe to do?
  • Your immune system responds with depletion and under performance.
Feeling along and isolated in this lockdown era?
  • A sense of alienation and lack of connection has been shown to be the worst type of insult for the immune system – triggering reprogramming of the genes in the immune cells to both increase inflammation and debilitate your ability to fight off an infection.
BUT, we can talk to a counselor, a friend, a mentor and get a new perspective, shift our view, and feel a ray of optimism that becomes contagious…and this transformation trickles down to our cells!   We don’t need to talk in person with this supportive individual, we can connect by phone, email or watch a recorded message from them. The simple act of connection with someone by any medium shifts us into a productive stress response (as composed to a fight or flight stress response) and restores our immune function.  Mindset Intervention research studies have shown this is a FAST and lasting response that occurs within 10-15 minutes of a simple reframing intervention – people’s minds, emotional states and biology shift, clearing all the adversity of chronic stress including strain on the cardiovascular system and reversing the immune system debilitation. This response can also be triggered through telehealth healing sessions.
And this is what mind-body practitioners do…simple emotional and stress releases that we can coach people to do live or remotely with equal effectiveness. And when we don’t feel threatened and have a sense of support, we naturally relax, sleep better, heal and our immune cells re-engage with their jobs resolving true threats!

THE STRESS ANGLE

How could mind-body medicine work in the first place, let alone make a difference when done at a distance? Your autonomic (think automatic functions here…like digestion, heart rate, breathing) nervous system has two modes – a gas pedal and a brake. Like your car, you can’t simultaneously drive it in both modes.

You either have the gas pedal on and are in sympathetic (aka stress) mode, OR, you have the brakes on and are in relaxation (parasympathetic) mode. Science tells us that 100% of healing and rejuvenation happens in relaxation mode (so let’s do the math here: 0% of healing happens when we’re stressed!).
So anything that gets you to relaxation mode boosts the body’s natural ability to heal – anything! If you work with the BodyIntuitive/BodyTalk systems, we use simple techniques that balance the brain and work through acupuncture points to calm mind and body. These straightforward techniques can be taught remotely so anyone can touch the points and brain areas on themselves and get the powerful relaxation reset, which jump starts healing.

EXAMPLES:

  • Intercessory prayer, energy healing, shamanic healing, nonlocal healing, Chi Kung and Reiki
  • Nonlocal healing defies classical physics and relies on a quantum explanation
  • Einstein defined this as spooky action at a distance, quantum non-locality
  • The bottom-line is that we don’t know exactly how this stuff works, but that’s true for many things.
Check out the peer-reviewed published research study on distance BodyTalk treatments for chronic pain that Janet Galipo did in the Journal of Pain Management. We got excellent statistically significant reduction of pain intensity in long term chronic pain sufferers AND improvement in the associated emotional issues of anxiety and depression many patients face.  In the discussion section, we reference other distance healing publications if you want more data!
Some things are just empirical. Although I started out as a scientist skeptic, I now know distance healing works, because I have personally experienced it myself many times (it’s awesome!), and have observed that my family, friends and clients see real changes of physical, emotional and spiritual health with distance treatments.
