The AND/OR flow between two extremes and a neutral middle
Polarity Therapy, developed by Dr Randolph Stone, integrates the body, mind, and soul to achieve health and well-being. Dr Stone, an expert in osteopathy, chiropractic, and naturopathy, concluded that “Energy is the real substance behind the appearance of matter and forms.” His holistic approach blends ancient and modern healing practices, including Ayurveda, Oriental Medicine, Osteopathy, Chiropractic, and Craniosacral Therapy.
Dr Stone’s philosophy emphasises that health is the harmony of life within us, encompassing peace of mind, happiness, and well-being. This holistic view aligns with contemporary neuroscience, quantum physics, and newer trauma therapies developed in the past 30 years.
Polarity Therapy views the nervous system as our wired anatomy and our energetic anatomy as our wireless anatomy. It provides practical methods to address autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysregulation, supporting the principles of the Polyvagal Theory, which confirms what Stone’s Polarity Therapy emphasises.
Over the last 30 years, the Polyvagal Theory (PVT) has supported the central message of Polarity Therapy—the role our unified nervous system plays in maintaining balance, flow, and homeostasis within our whole being. It highlights the importance of safety, connection, and regulation to our health and well-being.
Polarity Therapy also addresses our spiritual dimension, introducing a fundamental concept: the polarity between our evolution from spirit (higher consciousness or purpose) to matter (our physical existence on Earth), and our involution—the journey of returning from matter back to spirit.
Besides this fundamental polarity that governs the flow of our life energy, Polarity Therapy also addresses many other energy flows, moving from positive through neutral to negative and back, forming an infinity symbol of energy flow between polarities.
Polarity Therapy consists of four components to maintain health: bodywork, nutritional advice, neurosomatic exercise, and coaching/talking.
As a qualified Complementary Therapist specialising in Polarity Therapy and registered with Swiss health insurance, I have trained extensively in modalities that align with Polarity Therapy and the Polyvagal Theory. At Neuroceptive Learning, I integrate these techniques to offer a comprehensive approach to healing and self-discovery.
- Bodywork: Techniques like Ortho-Bionomy, Feldenkrais Functional Integration, and NARM Touch.
- Nutrition: Food as medicine, informed by Dr Wahls’ Protocol and Dr Ede’s Ketogenic Diet protocols.
- Neurosomatic Retraining: Practices such as Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement, Continuum, and Sophrology.
- Coaching/Talk Therapy: This includes Somatic Experiencing, the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM), Formative Embodiment, Psychosynthesis, Systemic Solution-Focused Coaching, and Ontology Coaching.
At Neuroceptive Learning, we use Polarity Therapy to help you uncover and enhance your sense of being and becoming. By integrating this therapy with other modalities, we enhance the flow of your life energy to achieve lasting change.
This approach helps resolve trauma and fosters overall well-being and authentic self-expression.
We also use Polarity Management decision-making systems to regulate and manage relationships within groups and teams. Finding the “AND/OR” regulatory rather than dualistic “OR” solutions is at the heart of Polarity Management, an executive decision-making modality.
Polarity Therapy remains invaluable for clients in various situations. Its principles and techniques are essential for anyone interested in holistic health and trauma resolution. Embrace the synthesis of ancient wisdom and modern healthcare knowledge through Polarity Therapy and Polarity Management, and experience the harmony of life within you.
