Psychosomatic Energetics
by Wendy Lucyshyn

The purpose of Psychosomatic Energetics is to rebalance the body’s energy field and centres.

Do you notice about yourself that you will tend to avoid confrontations or arguments because you cannot speak up and say how you really feel? Perhaps you have frequent fatigue issues? What about not feeling like you can deal with emotional issues and instead stuff your feelings with food or other addictions?

Why and how these emotional and/or physical conflicts occur are questions that led to the method of Psychosomatic Energetics (also known as PSE). This modality, including the REBA device itself, was developed by German physician Dr. Reimer Banis, MD, ND, and biophysicist Dieter Jossner. Dr. Banis developed this method in 1997 after years of research and using other modalities that did not bring the lasting effect he was looking for when working with his patients.

What is an emotional conflict? An emotional conflict can be the result of a physical and/or emotional trauma or a combination of both, such as a motor vehicle accident, personal injury or sickness, death of a loved one, relationship breakup, excess weight, or the loss of a job, to name a few. What can happen is that these emotions may get stored in the body’s energy field like extra baggage that gets carried around either consciously or unconsciously and can lead to less overall energy (vital life force).

All living organisms have a life force or energy field both inside and surrounding it. It is a subtle energy field, which means that it is delicate and may be difficult to detect. In the west, it is known as the human energy field and may be described as a person’s aura. The definition of an energy field according to Mosby’s Medical Dictionary is “the flow of energy surrounding a person.”(1) In India, it is called prana and in China, it is known as chi. The internal energy centres in the body may also be referred to as the chakra system. Author, speaker, and lecturer in the field of Energy Medicine, Donna Eden, describes the chakras this way: “The chakras bathe the organs in their energies. Each chakra supplies energy to specific organs, corresponds to a distinct aspect of your personality, and resonates (respectively, from the bottom to the top chakra) with one of seven universal principles having to do with survival, creativity, identity, love, expression, comprehension, or transcendence. Your chakras also code your experiences in their energies, just as memories are chemically coded in your neurons. An imprint of every emotionally significant event you have experienced is believed to be recorded in your chakra energies.” (2) The work of Dr. Harold Saxton Burr, PhD and professor at Yale University in the 1940s and 1950s, also indicated that all living things contain a bioelectrical field that can be measured. He referred to these fields as L-fields.

What Dr. Banis determined was that psychosomatic health in the body originates from 28 different conflicts that may be stored in the human energy field, and affects the related internal energy centres (chakras) in the body. The REBA device itself is a state-of-the-art microprocessor instrument that measures the frequencies that resonate with our brain waves, and allows the determination of energy levels in the four energy bodies contained in the human energy field. This includes the vital (physical), emotional, mental, and causal (spiritual). He then developed the corresponding homeopathic mixtures (Chavita and Emvita remedies) used to melt these conflicts. The purpose of Psychosomatic Energetics is to rebalance the body’s energy field and centres. By doing so, the body regains balance and the body’s life force is then able to flow more freely.

Psychosomatic Energetics can also test for geopathic stress. Briefly described, geopathic stress zones are a naturally occurring phenomenon on our planet. Some known examples that have been studied are the Curry grid and the Hartmann grid, both named after their founders, Dr. M. Curry, MD, and Dr. Ernst Hartmann. Naturally occurring sources include faults, caves, underground water systems, and geological fault lines. Man-made disturbances affecting geopathic stress include roads, building foundations, sewers, mines, and electro smog from power stations. An interesting point is that most mammals, with the exception of cats, will avoid these zones. It has been noted that in earlier times sheep were relied upon to determine where a house may be built, and more specifically, the master bedroom. The reason for this is that the sheep would bed down in an area that was free of geopathic stress.

What is emitted from geopathic stress is an electromagnetic radiation which may have a negative effect on human health. These negative effects have been studied since the 1930s. Possible indications of geopathic stress include issues with falling asleep or disturbed sleep, headaches upon waking, children who fall out of their beds frequently, muscle cramps and/or pain, and noticing that you sleep better when you are away from home.

Psychosomatic Energetics is a non-invasive modality and can be used with all age groups (infants to the elderly) as well as with animals. The REBA test device is FDA approved and has been approved for use in Canada since 2005.
