Access Bars
Description
Access Bars is a holistic therapy that falls under the category of energy healing and bodywork. It involves gently touching specific points on the head known as "Bars" to facilitate the release of energetic blockages and promote relaxation and well-being. These Bars correspond to different aspects of one's life, such as healing, control, creativity, communication, and more. Access Bars is intended to help clear limitations and thought patterns that may be holding a person back.

How it works
Access Bars is based on the idea that the Bars on the head store the electromagnetic component of all thoughts, ideas, attitudes, decisions, and beliefs. During a session, a trained practitioner lightly touches these Bars, allowing the energy to flow and release stored thoughts and emotions. This process is intended to promote relaxation and help clients access greater clarity and well-being.
