In today’s fast-paced world, where burnout and anxiety have become increasingly common, more Irish professionals are turning to alternative therapies for relief. As an Access Bars® practitioner, I’ve witnessed remarkable transformations in clients who’ve discovered this gentle yet powerful modality. But what makes this therapy so effective, and why are 32 specific points on our head so significant for our mental well-being?
What Actually Happens During an Access Bars® Session?
Unlike traditional massage or energy work, Access Bars® therapy focuses on 32 specific points on your head. These points, or ‘bars’, when gently touched, begin a subtle but profound process of releasing mental and emotional blocks. Think of it as defragmenting your mental hard drive – clearing out old patterns, beliefs, and stored stress that no longer serve you.
The 32 Points of Transformation
Each bar corresponds to different aspects of life:
- Money and abundance
- Healing and body
- Creativity and consciousness
- Joy and laughter
- Control and awareness
- Peace and calm
- Sexuality and relationships
- Aging and life
The Science Behind the Calm
While Access Bars® might sound esoteric, the neurological basis for its effects is fascinating. During a session:
- Brain Wave Patterns Shift
- Studies using EEG have shown that Access Bars® sessions can shift brain activity from beta to theta waves
- This transition mirrors deep meditative states
- Facilitates mental clarity and stress reduction
- Nervous System Response
- Activates the parasympathetic nervous system
- Reduces cortisol levels
- Promotes deep relaxation
