Mike recounts his first significant experience with energy healing, helping his partner with chronic knee pain, which led to his continued exploration and development of energy healing techniques.

ABOUT MIKE SENTENTIA:

I’m Mike. After studying and practicing energy healing 20+ years, I’ve developed a unique system of energy healing, specifically designed for chronic pain conditions.
I’m truly so grateful for every client who’s placed their faith in me and who I’ve been able to help get back to doing what they love most over the past two decades. They’re the reason I do this work!


In addition to being an energy healer for chronic pain, I’m also a science geek and love reading research. My books cover holistic care techniques that actually work, and the evidence behind them.


Core purpose/passion: The mission of Healing Lab is to see Energy Healing integrated into mainstream medical practice and to see it covered by insurance in the same way that acupuncture is becoming. We know there is modern science behind energy healing even if we don’t fully understand all the mechanisms yet.

TRANSCRIPT

Introduction  00:00

Welcome to the Healers Café. The number one show for medical practitioners and holistic healers, to have heart to heart conversations about their day to day lives, while sharing their expertise for improving your health and wellness.

Manon Bolliger  00:17

Welcome to the Healers Cafe, and today I have with me Mike Sententia, and after studying and practicing energy healing for about 20 plus years, he’s developed a unique system of energy healing specifically designed for chronic pain conditions, and he’s truly grateful for every client who’s placed their faith in him, because he’s been able to do what he loves most, which is to help people get better. And so I’m really thrilled to have this general conversation on one on, I mean, energy healing is less taboo than it was. And, you know, in my field, you know, it’s like, I do Bowen therapy, and people don’t know what it is either. So it’s like, how does it work? You barely touched me. You know, energy healing is one layer beyond that. But the truth is, science, so called science, is catching up to understanding phenomena that we don’t understand yet. That’s the way I’m seeing it. And one of your passions is reading endless scientific books and reviews. So it’s a interesting combination. So welcome tothis show.

 

Mike Sententia  01:48

Thanks for having me. I’m excited to be here and share all this stuff so well.

 

Manon Bolliger  01:55

Why don’t we start with what got you started in this field? It’s not like, you know, boom, suddenly, you did this, right?

 

Mike Sententia  02:04

So I’ve been working with energy ever since I was a kid. A friend who loved fantasy novels talked about feeling energy from trees, and I tried it, and I felt some tingling, and I went to the ocean and tuned into the energy and felt this whole body frision. And I had a bunch of experiences like that. Now how much of that was energy and how much of that was imagination, I have no idea I was like 12, but it got me started learning how to tune into energy, how to observe it, how to just play around with it. And then in my 20s, I was partnered with a woman a bit older than me, who had chronic knee pain. She used to run. She gave it up before we met. Whenever we’d go swing dance, or she’d garden, or whatever, her knees would ache, and I started reading the energy of her knees and adjusting it to look like the energy of my healthy knees. And each day, her pain would come down, and then the next day she’d garden, and her pain would be back up. And I’d do it again, and her pain would come down. And after doing this every day for about three months, her pain wasn’t coming back anymore. She’d actually, at about the two month mark, had tried running, and her knees were still achy, and she was like, Nope, can’t run. The three month mark, when she wasn’t having the achiness from gardening, she tried running again, and she was able to start running again for the first time in years, and so that got me started working with energy, doing or doing healing sessions for friends and family and myself. Since then, I’ve taken training in Reiki and therapeutic touch and some other systems, but day to day, the techniques that I’ve developed myself are still the ones that I use. And, yeah, just a real passion for seeing how this transforms people’s lives, and how just being able to get more mobile and have less pain transforms people’s experience.

 

Manon Bolliger  03:59

Very interesting. Yeah. So now, if we go to a current date, how do you retrospectively explain that it took three months, basically, of repeating the energy fixed, let’s call it. I don’t know what else to call it. How do you explain how that worked?

 

Mike Sententia  04:28

So these days, when I work with someone who, let’s say, has chronic knee pain, there are a few different healing techniques that I use. So, big picture, a lot of systems of energy healing will use one universal energy for everything, right? So someone has knee pain, so it has insomnia, so it has cancer, they’re all getting the same thing. This has the benefit that it’s easy to teach and it’s quick to learn, but it has the detriment of being limiting, right? If in your medical practice, you had to give all three of those patients the same. Exact treatment, it’d be really limiting, so I take a different approach. I dial in just the right energy for each tissue involved in the condition. So if I’m working with someone with knee pain, I’m going to have one energy for the nerves. When nerves signal pain over and over, they learn to signal pain better and better. That’s what chronic pain is. It has a unique physiology and a unique energy signature, and so I suppress that energy signature, and for so many of my clients, their pain drops by about 50% in less than a minute. When I do that, then I have another energy for working with the inflamed connective tissue, the tendon and the bursa, and specific to the energy signatures associated with inflammation. When I talk about energy signatures, the way I think about it is the different cellular processes make up the energy signatures. The energy signature is this big, like radio wave or sound wave. You could imagine it as the different parts of it correspond to different cellular processes. And so I find the parts of the signature that correspond to the inflammation cellular process, those cytokines and that the activity going on suppress them, with the goal of suppressing the inflammation. And then I have another one for if the person has arthritis and their cartilage is degenerating. I have another one for working with the cartilage that’s based on the energy of a child’s cartilage. And so I take the energy signatures that are elevated in kids when the cartilage is growing quickly and nice and healthy, and I boost those signatures in the client who has the arthritis, and what we’re finding is that, over the course of a year, most of my clients with arthritis don’t need me anymore, and we even have some imaging evidence of the cartilage of regrowing when I’m working with someone. I have stuff for the nerves that typically acts really quickly. I have stuff for the inflammation that acts over the course of weeks and months, and have stuff for the cartilage that acts over the course of a year or so. So my guess is, looking back with her that she was getting some immediate reduction in pain from whatever was going on with the nerves, and then longer term, over the three month period, the inflammation was probably coming down, and that’s where she was able to actually start running again.

 

Manon Bolliger  07:26

That makes sense. And what do you think? I mean? I know we don’t absolutely know the mechanism, right, but, like, homeopathy has a suggested mechanism, like curing, like so we see a pellet in the water giving frequency to the body. The goal in homeopathy is to match the frequency, allowing the body then to respond and become stronger in sort of in fighting, in a sense, away from the the artificially put in frequency, that’s a mechanism. How do you because you use the word suppress, which in modern medicine has all kinds of negative connotations, but how? How are you using it and how? What are you seeing as the mechanism of healing in or any part of it, you know, pain?

 

Mike Sententia  08:25

Yeah, that’s a great question. So the first thing often when somebody asks me, how does it work, what they mean is, explain, in biochemistry and physics, what’s the mechanism of action? And the answer there is, we..
