Bioenergotherapy is a non-conventional treatment method in which the therapist uses his own energy to produce the desired healing effects in the patient. However, the therapist does not transfer this energy to the patient, but uses it to unblock accumulated energy in the patient and to balance the homeostasis of the body. Bioenergotherapy can be used to treat many physical conditions. Does it also work for treating depression?
What is bioenergy therapy?
Bioenergy therapy is a method of treatment using biological energy extracted from the hands of the bioenergotherapist. It is based on the aim to restore the balance of the human organism.
Bioenergotherapy deals with activating the body's natural mechanisms and restoring functioning to its pre-sickness state. This method is based on the experience of Chinese folk medicine and the knowledge of energy flowing through the body. It assumes that the causes of various illnesses originate in the human psyche and emotions. It also states that if the energy system is severely disturbed, problems may arise in the functioning of various systems.
A prerequisite for successful therapy is a very detailed history of chronic diseases, lifestyle, stress levels of physical activity or personality.
Effects of bioenergy therapy
Bioenergotherapy can help:
- to strengthen the body in general,
- calm and relax,
- get rid of sleep problems,
- reduce feelings of chronic stress,
- alleviate pain,
- improve circulation,
- reduce feelings of fatigue,

It also helps in the fight against:

- depression,
- female diseases,
- joint and back pain,
- allergies,

However, bioenergy therapy should be considered as a complement to traditional medicine. Patients using the services of a professional bioenergotherapist should remain in contact with their doctor.
Bioenergetic techniques
Bioenergotherapists can use a wide variety of techniques, Their aim is to restore the correct flow of energy. Such modalities include:
- relaxation exercises,
- supplementing energy shortages.
- meditation,
- visualisations,
- breath work,
- establishing an energy connection,
- cleansing of organs, spine and joints.
There are also a number of techniques to support bioenergy therapy. These include:
- hypnotherapy,
- suggestion therapy,
- acupressure,
- Chinese bubble therapy.
They have a beneficial effect on the patient's body, making it possible to combat, for example, muscle tension or pain.
Can bioenergy therapy help with depression and anxiety disorders?
Stress rush, changing economic conditions, increasing uncertainty, all of this means that in many cases our nervous system cannot stand the strain. Emotional problems, depression, anxiety, neurasthenic states and personality disorders are, according to bioenergotherapists, disruptions in the flow of our own vital energy between energy centres. They affect the hormonal balance and the work of the internal organs as well as the quality of emotions, thoughts, feelings, self-awareness, and also self-esteem, willpower, the ability to cope with simple life situations.
To preserve body homeostasis and a good mental state, the correct balance in the concentration of hormones and neurotransmitters, i.e. the biochemical balance of the brain, is essential. The underlying cause of depression and neurotic disorders is its disruption, hence the use of bioenergetic therapy can effectively support other therapeutic measures. The observation of many cases of permanent improvement occurring in various types of neurotic disorders, especially depression and anxiety neurosis under the influence of bioenergy therapy shows that this method positively influences the biochemical processes of the brain and thus contributes to the improvement of the patient's mental state.
How does bioenergy therapy help in the treatment of mental illness?
Using a method that affects the physical area as well as the emotional, mental and spiritual areas, the bioenergotherapist helps to bring about a state of balance. The correct flow of energy is then restored and with it comes peace, strength and harmony for the patient.
The most recent scientific findings confirm the positive effects of bioenergy therapy on the human body, both in the case of internal diseases and mental problems. They prove that the energy influence has a beneficial calming effect on the autonomic nervous system of the person undergoing treatment. As it turns out, the transfer of biofield energy triggers physiological and biochemical changes in the patient's body that resemble the effects of drugs, without, however, causing unwanted side effects.
