About Integrative Energy Therapies
Integrated Body-Mind-Energy Therapies
Restore balance, release stress, and cultivate deep healing through a unique integration of energy healing modalities, mind-body practices, and evidence-based therapeutic techniques. This hands-on service is designed to support your well-being by addressing both the physical and energetic aspects of health, blending holistic healing with scientifically grounded methods for a comprehensive, whole-person approach to wellness, functioning, and performance.​
​
At Kreider Wellness, integrative energy healing combines evidence-based manual therapies with energy-based modalities to support the body's natural healing processes. This approach addresses both the physical structures and the subtle energy systems that contribute to overall well-being.
Understanding Energy Healing Modalities
Energy healing practices, such as Reiki and Healing Touch, operate on the principle that the human body possesses a biofield—a complex, dynamic field of energy and information that surrounds and interacts with the physical body. This biofield is thought to regulate physiological and psychological processes, and disruptions within it may manifest as illness or dysfunction.
Emerging research suggests that the biofield can be influenced through intentional therapeutic interventions, leading to measurable changes in physiological parameters. For instance, studies have observed alterations in heart rate variability and electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns during biofield therapy sessions, indicating shifts in autonomic nervous system activity and brain function (Fields et al., 2024). Such shifts often correspond with improved sleep, reduced stress, enhanced focus, and greater emotional regulation—potential benefits that can support well-being and everyday functioning.
Integrating Manual Therapies and Energy Healing
In practice, sessions often begin with gentle manual therapies like myofascial release and craniosacral therapy to alleviate physical restrictions and promote relaxation. These techniques help create space within the body's tissues, facilitating the free flow of energy. Once the body is ready, energy healing modalities are introduced to address imbalances in the biofield, supporting the restoration of harmony and vitality.
This integrative approach acknowledges the interconnectedness of the body's physical and energetic systems, aiming to enhance the body's innate capacity for healing.
Scientific Perspectives on the Biofield and Energy Systems
The concept of the human biofield is gaining attention in scientific communities. Researchers have explored its properties and potential roles in health and healing. For example, the National Institutes of Health has recognized the biofield as a field that may play a role in health and disease (Jain et al., 2015).
Additionally, anatomical studies have identified structures that may correspond to traditional energy pathways described in Eastern medicine. The primo vascular system is a network of microscopic channels that may correlate with acupuncture meridians. These findings suggest a possible anatomical basis for energy flow within the body (Stefanov et al., 2013).

What to Expect
Sessions integrate:
-
Energy Healing Techniques – Clearing energetic blockages, restoring flow, and rebalancing and integrating eight of the body’s subtle energy systems.
-
Evidence-Based Therapeutic Strategies – Drawing from occupational therapy, neuroscience, and behavioral health to support physical and emotional well-being.
-
Nervous System Regulation - Balancing sympathetic (fight, flight, freeze) and parasympathetic (rest, relax, restore) responses
-
Somatic Awareness & Release – Gentle body-based techniques to release stored tension and support deep relaxation.
-
Mind-Body Healing Practices – Breathwork, guided visualization, and mindfulness techniques to calm the nervous system and enhance inner awareness.
-
Personalized Healing Plans – Practical self-care tools and strategies to release energetic blocks, maintain balance, resilience, and clarity beyond each session.
For in-person sessions, clients remain fully clothed while techniques are applied in standing, seated, or lying-down positions. A combination of light touch, hands-near techniques within the biofield, and fascial or craniosacral methods may be used to facilitate energy flow, release tension, and restore balance.
​
For video remote sessions, distance energy techniques are used to support energy flow and balance in conjunction with guided breathwork, visualization, and intention-based energy alignment. Clients also receive personalized coaching on self-application of energy techniques typically used during in-person sessions.
By combining holistic energy healing with evidence-based mind-body therapies, this interactive service enables clients to develop greater self-awareness and the ability to maintain their own energetic well-being between sessions. It empowers you to reduce stress, enhance vitality, and cultivate a deep sense of balance and wholeness - helping you feel more connected, grounded, and in control of your health and well-being.
