Biofield Tuning is an energy medicine* method developed by Eileen McKusick, an author, researcher and practitioner, (www.biofieldtuning.com) for self-healing and wellness that uses sound waves produced by specialized tuning forks in the biofield that surrounds the human body. During a standard Biofield Tuning session, the practitioner uses some hands-on touch and applies the handles of weighted tuning forks and crystals to the body. Energy medicine methods, such as Biofield Tuning, are designed to assess where the body’s energy is blocked, trapped, or not in harmony and then correct the flow of this energy by aligning the body’s energy to boost health and vitality. The theory of energy medicine methods is that the flow and balance of the body’s electromagnetic and subtle energy is important for physical, spiritual, and emotional health, and for fostering overall well-being. You understand and accept that when utilizing Biofield Tuning the practitioner is not “diagnosing” or “treating” the physical body, which is the domain of the medical field and other allied health care professionals but instead is connecting to the energy or “subtle body” of the client that make it possible to manifest a change or transformation, which is then experienced directly by the client. You understand there is a distinction between “healing” using Biofield Tuning and the practice of medicine or any other licensed health care practice. Although Biofield Tuning appears to have promising emotional, spiritual, and physical health benefits, it has yet to be fully researched by the Western academic, medical, and psychological communities. Biofield Tuning may be considered experimental and the extent of its effectiveness, as well as its risks and benefits, are not fully known. Energy medicine methods such as Biofield Tuning are considered “alternative” or “complementary” to the healing arts licensed in the United States. Further, energy medicine methods such as Biofield Tuning are self-regulated and the State of Washington does not license, certify, or register Biofield Tuning practitioners. *Energy medicine is a collective term used that refers to a variety of energy techniques, processes, and methods based on the use, modification, and manipulation of energy fields that look at imbalances within an individual’s energy system as well as the energetic influence of thoughts, beliefs, and emotions on the body.
