Registered Polarity Practitioner and Educator, Tera Mei Reiki Master

Energy is Life's Movement

Polarity  is a synthesis of Eastern and Western healing principles & techniques for balancing and optimizing the flow of Life Energy.
      Techniques include working with structural and electromagnetic polar relationships of the body, chakras, craniosacral system as well as verbal support skills that clarify awareness to creatively meet one's challenges and goals.  These creative applications are designed to explore and move energy in a way that promotes personal growth and freedom.

Your Polarity session may include any of the following:
  • Interview, observation and clarification of "theme" or "condition" to be addressed for the session
  • Palpation of the auric field and the physical body
  • Application of bodywork techniques that can include: gentle holding at resonant contact points of the body (including Craniosacral work), rocking, stretching, light to deep "point specific" touch, gentle structural work based on patterns of "sacred geometry", gentle touch with "harmonic relationships" of the spine, palpation and energy work with the chakras.
  • Nutritional Counseling
  • Exploration of challenges and personal process through verbal support skills to enhance clarity, compassion, personal awareness, and insights for creative action.
  • EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) using affirmations and a unique tapping of accupressure points to release patterns of distress, and plant desired states of awareness, feeling, consciousness and action into the subconscious.
  • Body movement/stretch exercises to open and enhance certain "elemental energy currents
  • Laughter
We understand that atoms pulsate and these polar pulsations create energy fields. From these energy fields, electric currents are formed. It's important to note that Space (Ether) is an important factor in the flow of energetic currents. Without space, energy cannot flow. Static or blocked energy, whether caused by stress and/or illness, prevents the flow of energy (electric current) in the human body. Polarizing (unblocking) the energy field creates a neutral or sattvic state in the body. Once the body has been returned to it's neutral state, it is then able to rejuvenate itself through balanced polar pulsations.

Polarity  also embodies the PROCESS of self-awareness that serves an experiential discovery of new and better ways of being. We live our life in a body. Our experiences, including events, feelings, thoughts, beliefs and actions live in our body. This is one reason why bodywork can be so powerful.  PROCESS BODYWORK  brings attention to the conscious/unconscious border zone where one can sense and relate to the ongoing experiential process of our living.

Testimonials for Michael Edan :
"Michael is a gifted, loving, effective Polarity practitioner, healer, and teacher. I am blessed to know him. It is rare to come across a healer who truly shines. Michael is one such healer."
Sherri Patridge,  Alzheimer's Association, NYC Chapter.

"As a therapist, he is one of the finest I have every experienced. Under his care, I have received Polarity, Reiki and Craniosacral sessions, all of which have left a profound and lasting effect. The Polarity session I received was excellent for a number of reasons: Michael was able to facilitate a safe and grounding environment, he was in the moment with me and quite astute to the sensitive and intricate changes that were occurring within me. The touch therapy aspect of this session was soothing, balancing and supportive. For the talking portion of the treatment he was approachable and navigated difficult emotions and the disclosure of personal information quite gracefully."
Ira Joan Macner New York State Licensed Massage Therapist
Treatments Manager - The Lodge at Woodloch

"As an instructor of Polarity Therapy, Michael provided me with a wealth of knowledge that has been life changing. As my Polarity Therapist, he has consistently been effective on getting me focused, and back on the right track."
L. K. Brown
