How Is Energy Healing Different Than Traditional Recovery Methods?
Energy healing for recovery is a holistic approach to addiction rehabilitation. This modality gets to the root of addiction issues on an energetic level. It goes beyond the physical and mental causes of addiction and works with the unseen layer of energies. A holistic approach to recovery addresses “the mind, body, and spirit as equally important features of self that are integral pieces of the recovery process.” [1]
Examples of Energy Healing Techniques
The type of energy healing method that is right for you will be best determined by your recovery coach. Some examples of these techniques are:
Genius Biofeedback
Reiki Healing
Sound Baths and Vibrational Sound Therapy
Meditations
Acupuncture
Yoga
We will go into more detail below about the energy healing modalities offered by Holistic Recovery Services in North Dakota.
More About Genius Biofeedback
Genius Insight Biofeedback is a body scanning software. This tool provides feedback on the state of the energetic body and frequencies emitted by the body. Some of the information it produces includes chakra levels, nutrition, digestion, and overall health. [2] The software then evaluates this information based on hundreds of muscle tests in rapid succession. In turn, it produces energetic readings to determine which frequencies are best suited for your healing journey.
Sounds pretty great, right? But what does this have to do with addiction recovery?
The Genius Biofeedback software can determine what brain chemical imbalances might be happening in your body. The software senses levels of norepinephrine, serotonin, acetylcholine, dopamine, and epinephrine. These chemicals are extremely important in brain health and for a strong foundation in addiction recovery. Genius Biofeedback programs for addiction recovery include:
Addiction Healing Series
Addiction Brain Clearing Series
Stop Smoking Succes Frequency
Break a Habit - Create a Reset, Restart, + Refresh
At Holistic Recovery Services, Victoria can provide a Genius Biofeedback scan and help you interpret the results so you can be on your way to health and healing. Biofeedback is considered a distance modality and is performed online through a zoom session, meaning you can achieve the profound results anywhere in the world!

Reiki for Healing in Recovery
Another holistic approach to addiction recovery is Reiki energy healing. Reiki is a form of healing that comes from Japan. “Reiki practitioners use their hands to deliver energy to your body and improve the flow and balance of energy to support healing.” [3] Improving your energy flow and balance can result in increased relaxation, faster healing, less pain, and better health. [3]
Reiki healing is used in recovery by shifting the subtle energies of the body. This creates newfound independence and shows improvement of happiness and control in life. These positive shifts have the potential to decrease the desire to use or abuse substances. Reiki can also help with symptoms of withdrawal. The calming effect of Reiki healing can reduce the physical pain one might typically feel when going through a detoxification.
Overall, Reiki’s soothing results can help you feel more calm, safe, and relaxed as you go through your recovery journey. [3] Much like Biofeedback, Reiki can be considered a distance modality. Victoria at Holistic Recovery Services is a certified Reiki practitioner and offers her services online, so you can receive these healing benefits no matter where you’re located.
Sound Baths and Vibrational Sound Therapy for Healing
Much like Reiki healing, sound baths and vibrational sound therapy can do wonders to reduce the stress on your mind, body, and spirit during recovery. A sound bath is a form of guided meditation that produces a specific frequency, pattern, or rhythm. Sound baths use a variety of instruments to improve the vibration and balance of your body. [4] Likewise, sound therapy uses resonance, rhythm, and vibration to create positive changes on a cellular level.” [5]
Sound therapy can improve the brain waves that are affected by addiction. It can also stabilize imbalances from the energy field surrounding your body. These changes can improve habits, thinking, and behavioral patterns, all of which can contribute to healing and recovery. [4] In addition to its mental health benefits, sound therapy can improve physical pain and emotional blockages. This can lead to better sleep, decreased depression, and ignited inspiration. [4]
Better energetic health ensures a strong foundation or baseline as you continue in recovery. Holistic Recovery Services has a variety of offerings that include the healing modality of sound baths and vibrational sound therapy.

Will Energy Healing Alone Help Me Overcome My Addiction?
Ultimately, there are six factors that affect recovery success. The factors are: physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, social, and environmental. [6] Traditional recovery routes focus heavily on the mental, social, and environmental aspects. But, energy healing helps improve the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects. Energy healing provides a sense of safety and calm to the person on the recovery journey.
According to research, “with the renowned success of AA and the proven recovery potential of the newer holistic programs, it is likely that combining salient features of both approaches could lay the foundation for a highly effective substance abuse treatment program.” [1]
Holistic Recovery Services believes in a well-rounded approach to overcoming addiction. Victoria has many offerings that complement one another. She realizes that addiction and recovery are very personal journeys and tailors a recovery program specific to the individual. With that, she is constantly assessing what is working well or if something in the program needs adjustment.
