Spiritual Healing

Spiritual healing is an umbrella term to describe a number of methods in which a healer serves as a conduit or ‘channel’ for healing energies to be funnelled into a patient.  

This healing energy helps to stimulate the body’s self-healing mechanisms, whether the problem is physical, spiritual or emotional.

Depending on your beliefs, this energy comes from God, a cosmic consciousness, spirit guides or other entities of power.
