Eden Method case study: Relieving chronic pain naturally
Words ELIZABETH CARUANA
Aclient with chronic shoulder/ neck pain for over 10 years booked in for a series of sessions and had been seeing a health professional regularly for the pain.

After intake, sessions always began with testing her basic energies. Donna Eden, founder of the Eden Method and world-renowned teacher and healer, states, “when your basic energies are off, you lose your power!”
We use ‘energy testing’, a very gentle technique to assess whether energy is flowing in regular patterns in the energy system being tested. My client tested for ‘homolateral energies’ which simply means, her energies were not crossing over well.
When a person’s energies are in the homolateral state, the person only has access to less than 50% of their available energies. It’s like running a car that uses $100 worth of petrol each day, on just $50 of petrol. In the homolateral state the person can experience brain fog, lethargy, depression, and have difficulty healing.
Pain further isolates a person and without full access to their energies, healing from pain or illness can be difficult. The wonderful news with the Eden Method is that after a session, the practitioner will ‘prescribe’ a tailored self-care plan, with simple exercises to further re-pattern core energies that tested as not being in flow and harmony.
In a session, we form a partnership with our clients and it is quite different to what clients are used to with Western Medicine. My client committed to doing the correction exercise several times each day, along with pain reducing techniques as we worked together. I would track and balance the energies that were revealed as needing attention during the session, and worked by layering pain techniques. My client would continue to support the repatterning by completing her tailored self-care daily between sessions.
In subsequent sessions the energies that were assigned with self-care were assessed to see if the repatterning was holding and they were. This client felt a major release from her pain during a chakra clear on her third session, and her pain was completely relieved. In the years since, her pain has only returned on the odd occasion, and she managed it herself by returning to the pain techniques she had been taught during her sessions.
It is not typical that clients have such profound healing from chronic pain in just three sessions. I attribute the unique Eden Method of consistent ‘Energy Tracking’, working with multiple energy systems, plus my client’s diligence to assigned self-care, and understanding the relationship between pain and emotions, as major factors in the rapid release of her chronic pain.
