Bengston Energy Method
When working with a client in this manner I primarily focus on a technique created by Dr. William Bengston, Ph.D. called 'Image Cycling'. This process allows a client to receive healing "energy' or healing "consciousness," and creates the potential for positive changes in body and mind.
Image Cycling, the technique I primarily use with the Bengston Method, has been rigorously researched by Dr. Bengston and creates the potential for both positive and tangible changes in body and mind.
To learn more about the Bengston Method, please watch these video interviews with Dr. William Bengston, a man I am so grateful to have learned from. These interviews are both helpful and thought provoking.
The Effects of a Session
During the course of a session this energy awakens and treats the areas of the body in greatest need of healing--whether it be organ systems, the vascular and nervous systems, lymphatic or muscular-skeletal systems, as well as the mental or emotional aspects of a person's being. Treatments tend to be most effective for persons suffering from conditions caused by many types of inflammation, injuries, chronic or acute pain, and depression.
Although every client's experience of my work differs, there is great potential for healing a large number of inflammatory conditions, as well as those related to unhealthy growth of cells. Of course, client responses vary widely, and the number of sessions as well as the days of spacing between between is specific to each person receiving treatment. In addition, it is important to note that I can never promise a particular outcome for a client, though the potential for impactful healing is always present.
Please write or call me so we can discuss whether or not I believe I may be able to help you.
Health Conditions I May Be of Help With Using Energy Medicine
While every client's response varies greatly, below are some conditions I can possibly help with, including:
Inflammation presenting in the brain, gut, eyes, heart, lungs or digestive systems
Inflammation presenting in the joints and muscular-skeletal systems
Inflammation presenting in the urinary systems of both women and men
Chronic pain related to the neck, back, joints and muscular-skeletal systems
Allergies
Depression
What a Long Distance Energy Session Looks Like
When I engage in a session with you we will connect by phone, Zoom (online video) or WhatsApp. If you are able and willing we will talk about any concerns you may have regarding your health and well-being, as I do healing work with you.
For those who may be particularly ill or incapacitated, we can simply stay connected by phone or online while you rest, or I can connect with you by using your name and photo. Both are equally effective.
Clients I Prefer to Work With
The Bengston Method is a powerful modality of healing and is for clients seriously wanting to create positive change in their bodies and minds. In order to be of highest service to my clients, it is important that you commit to a couple things when deciding to work with me.
Firstly, for clients working with me to heal their physical illnesses, I will teach you to learn Image Cycling for your own self-healing. Practicing this fun and fascinating technique greatly empowers you to heal your body and mind. It also empowers me to be of much greater help to you.
Secondly, I require clients to pay for a package of four sessions, in order to begin working with me. Healing is not an act of magic, and takes place over a period of time. I want to ensure that you (the client) and I both give your healing a proper chance to unfold. For this reason, I give a substantial discount for the package of four sessions. You may work with me one session at a time thereafter, or continue receiving a discount on another package of sessions.
For a brief description of Image Cycling, please click here. I will teach in greater detail once we work together.
The Cost and Length of a Session
A series of four sessions are recommended to begin working with me and are discounted at $620. Individual sessions thereafter are $175. You may also continue with a package of four sessions at the discounted rate for as many as needed. The length of a session is 60 minutes.
Please note: In order to ensure that our time together is well spent, 24 hours' advance notice is required to cancel or reschedule all sessions. If 24-hour advance notice is not received, the client will be asked to pay for missed session in full to account for lost time.
"Eric Bates, LMT, is truly gifted with his therapeutic touch, intuition, and education. My sessions with Eric bring about such deep and amazing feelings of relief and healing. His touch, although comfortable and light, offers very deep therapeutic changes in my body within the deep and superficial fascial tissues, organs, nervous system, and muscle tissues. His sessions are extremely thorough and he addresses the body as a whole unit, focusing on what is really causing pain or dysfunction, as well as always connecting the mind, body, and spirit. I feel blessed that's Eric's bodywork sessions are part of my overall health and wellness routine."
