Energy Mat
Alternative medicine practitioner and energy healer Matthew Brownell carries a wealth of over twenty years experience in his field. His clients include television personalities, rock stars, international rugby players and Premiership footballers. His holistic therapy combines a blending of Eastern and Western methods using the pressure point techniques of acupressure and reflexology alongside the energy balancing therapeutic massage. His physical treatment focuses on the manipulation of stiff joints and the release of tension by pressing deeply into specific areas of the body. However, the intention is not just to examine the physical but to balance the energy or magnetic fields of the person as a whole.
Brownell’s studies show that through his experience he found that many diverse cultures tend to share the same philosophy that blocked energy can be a major cause of physical illness and mental unhappiness. The theory behind this being that the human body is a living magnet which has currents of positive and negative energies flowing constantly throughout. Brownell and his colleagues believe that if we can regulate a balanced flow of energy, we would all enjoy better health. For this purpose he has recently introduced into his work a new high-tech non-invasive pain therapy and healing device called the Energymat, which uses the technique of magnetic Resonance Stimulation to heal.
The Energymat is based on the use of coils that create pulsating electromagnetic fields. The device has varying frequencies to create wave like impulses. The impulses pass through the body in a similar manner to the Earth’s magnetic field. It works by increasing the excitation state of electrons in blood electrolytes. This in turn corrects the sodium/potassium balance, controlling blood pH, so as to energise all the cells in the body and make them more efficient at absorbing oxygen, distributing nutrients and cleansing the body of toxins in order to assist in the healing process.
The therapy provided by the Energymat has been used to treat not only physical injury but also bad circulation, respiratory problems, stress, depression and has also been known to assist in the repair of motor nerve function. Electrical charges created by our central nervous system controls the flow of chemicals and electricity throughout the body and therefore the requirements for cell function. The therapy strengthens the energy-field of each cell improving its function and the body’s ability to repair tissue whilst stimulating the immune system. Thus reducing inflammation and pain and also helping to speed up the healing process of wounds. The Energymat is also said to increase Alpha waves in the brain which assist in improved sleep.
When treating mental problems it is thought the process works by stimulating dormant neuron cells in the brain, boosting the levels of neurotransmitters, the chemical messengers that carry information between brain cells. Low levels of neurotransmitters have been linked to depression.
Magnetic therapy may sound off the wall or baffling but the ancient Greeks, Romans and Indians all used magnets for healing. NASA is said to use magnets in its spacecraft to reproduce the Earth’s environment and prevent space sickness in astronauts. Clinical studies have shown them to be useful in treating many conditions, from general aches as a result of sports injuries and accidents to arthritis. Most people are aware of the copper magnetic bangle to remedy aches and pains.
To the commonplace eye, the Energymat looks like an ordinary yoga mat, but in fact this roll-out mattress is in built with many electrical coils and has the versatility to be used at home as easily as in the clinic. Once plugged in, the Energymat’s console offers a choice of programmes, the duration of which range between eight and 24 minutes at varying levels of intensities with two smaller attachments to treat more localised aliments.
The patient doesn’t really need to understand the technology behind the treatment, they can just lie back and enjoy a sensation of deep relaxation and later feel the health benefits at work. Using the device doesn’t mean you can’t use conventional medicine or alternative therapy at the same time.
Research has shown humans and animals react positively to certain Earth like waves collectively called the biological window, other frequencies have no effect and can even disturb the normal biological field. Magnetic Resonance Stimulation is practiced in the biological window to maximum effect.
Brownell has just launched his first book, Seeing Is Healing, which sheds light upon much of the underlying basis of energy healing and Brownell’s techniques. He has the UK’s first dedicated Energymat clinic, Stress Solutions based in Manchester. Here he provides a relaxing environment with a varied range of treatments. He also teaches his techniques whilst presenting the opportunity for therapists and clients to purchase the Energymat. He believes his skills can be taught and aims to franchise his skills throughout Ireland and the UK in the near future. The device can be hired on a monthly trial for a fee refundable against the purchase price.
