Polarity Therapy: Why Christians Should Avoid Energy Healing Modalities

Polarity Therapy is an alternative healing system claiming to balance the body's energy flow to restore health. Developed by Randolph Stone, a chiropractor and osteopath, it combines bodywork, stretching exercises, and energy techniques. While marketed as a holistic health practice, it draws heavily from Eastern spiritual systems, particularly Ayurvedic medicine and traditional Chinese medicine, both of which rely on concepts of invisible energy currents (chi or prana) in the body.

From a Christian perspective, Polarity Therapy is spiritually dangerous. It promotes reliance on unseen energies rather than God’s sovereignty and the true source of healing—Jesus Christ (Exodus 15:26, James 5:14-15). Many practices like this can open doors to spiritual deception, subtly inviting demonic influence under the guise of “energy balancing.”

Cultural Origins and Beliefs

Polarity Therapy originates from Eastern philosophies, though it was systematized in the West by Randolph Stone in the mid-20th century. Stone incorporated ideas of positive and negative energy charges governing health, concepts that echo Ayurveda (India) and Traditional Chinese Medicine (China).

In these cultures, the body is thought to contain energy pathways or meridians, influenced by cosmic or spiritual forces. Illness occurs when energy is blocked or imbalanced. Practitioners aim to remove blockages and restore energy flow using touch, stretching, and visualization. These systems are rooted in a pantheistic worldview in which the universe and body energies interact with unseen forces—often considered spiritual or divine rather than purely physical.

Unlike Christianity, which teaches one sovereign God who heals according to His will, these Eastern systems assume the universe and its forces, not God, govern health.

Creator and Development

Randolph Stone, a chiropractor and osteopath in the United States, created Polarity Therapy in the 1940s and 1950s. He combined Western anatomy and chiropractic techniques with concepts of energy from Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine. Stone believed that positive and negative energy charges in the body’s electromagnetic field govern overall health and well-being.

Polarity Therapy is sometimes called polarity balancing or polarity energy balancing. It gained popularity as a “holistic” alternative to conventional medicine, appealing to those seeking non-invasive solutions for stress, pain, or chronic conditions.

---

Spiritual Implications: Gods and Beliefs

Although Polarity Therapy is not explicitly tied to any single deity, it is rooted in pantheism and Eastern spiritual beliefs. The “energies” that practitioners work with are often conceptualized as universal life forces, which are implicitly revered and sometimes equated with divine powers.

In practice, this means the modality assumes a spiritual force outside of God’s control has authority over the human body, which contradicts biblical truth. Scripture teaches that God alone is the healer (Psalm 103:2-3, Jeremiah 30:17), and manipulating spiritual energies through human methods falls into the realm of divination and false healing.

---

Purpose and Why People Use It

The stated purpose of Polarity Therapy is to balance energy flow in the body, reduce tension, and restore health. Techniques include:

• Gentle bodywork and massage

• Stretching exercises

• Visualization or meditation on energy currents

People are drawn to it for several reasons: stress relief, pain management, curiosity about energy healing, or distrust of conventional medicine. Many are unaware of the spiritual implications, seeing it as purely physical therapy.

However, the Bible warns Christians against relying on human-devised methods that involve unseen forces. Romans 1:25 cautions against exchanging the truth of God for lies, and Ephesians 6:12 reminds believers that spiritual battles involve unseen powers. Energy healing modalities like Polarity Therapy can inadvertently open participants to spiritual deception, making it spiritually unsafe.

---

Is Polarity Therapy Divination?

While not divination in the traditional sense of predicting the future, Polarity Therapy is a form of spiritual manipulation. It relies on unseen forces and the idea that humans can control or balance life energies—concepts that fall under occult influence according to biblical principles. Using these practices is risky because it subtly promotes trust in a power other than God.

Christians are instructed to seek healing, guidance, and peace through prayer, scripture, and God’s Holy Spirit rather than untested energy systems. Divine healing is granted according to God’s will, not through manipulating energy currents or unseen forces.

---

Conclusion

Polarity Therapy may appear as a modern wellness method, but its roots in Eastern pantheistic systems and focus on invisible energies make it spiritually unsafe for Christians. While it promises health and balance, it substitutes human-devised energy manipulation for God’s authority and true healing. For Christians, seeking God’s guidance, trusting in prayer, and submitting to His will is the only safe and biblical path. Avoid polarity therapy and other energy-based healing systems to remain spiritually protected.

Is Colour Therapy Occult?

Is Colour Therapy Occult? What Every Christian Needs to Know

Who Was the Founder of Colour Therapy and Why Christians Should Avoid It

Colour Therapy, also known as chromotherapy, is a practice that claims to balance and heal the body's energy centres, or chakras, using the colours of the light spectrum. Proponents of this therapy believe that applying specific colours to the body can stimulate healing. Standard methods include colour light boxes, coloured silks, solarised water, and even colour breathing, where one "inhales" colours during meditation and recites positive affirmations tied to each colour. But while these practices may seem harmless or beneficial, Christians should be highly cautious—and avoid them altogether.

---

Origins and Founders of Colour Therapy

The modern concept of Colour Therapy stems largely from New Age philosophies and earlier Eastern

spiritual systems, particularly from Indian Ayurveda and ancient Egyptian practices. Although there isn't one definitive founder, influential figures include Edwin Babbitt, author of The Principles of Light and Color (1878), and Augustus Pleasanton, who popularized chromotherapy in the 19th century. Neither man was rooted in Christian faith—instead, their beliefs were deeply entwined with mystical, metaphysical, and occult ideologies.

---

Spirituality Behind Colour Therapy

Colour Therapy is based on the belief in subtle energy fields and chakras, concepts not found in the 

Bible. These chakras are considered spinning energy centers along the spine and are part of Hindu and Buddhist spiritual systems. Each chakra is associated with a specific colour and psychological/emotional function. This belief system includes:

• Pantheism (God is everything and in everything)

• Reincarnation

• Energy healing and divination

Colour Therapy draws from false spiritual sources, not the God of the Bible. The belief in manipulating unseen energies to heal the body opens spiritual doors that God has commanded His people to avoid.

---

False Religion and the Risk to Christians

Christians are warned not to mix the holy with the profane. We cannot take practices rooted in false religion, occultism, or New Age spirituality and "Christianize" them. God strictly forbids His people from using methods of healing that invoke or align with other spiritual forces. If Jesus didn’t do it, neither should we.

2 Corinthians 6:14-15: "Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness?... Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever?"

---

Real Dangers: Demonic Infestation and Oppression

Participating in Colour Therapy can expose Christians to demonic oppression and torment. Symptoms may include:

• Emotional turmoil

• Nightmares

• Intrusive thoughts

• Hearing voices

• Seeing orbs or lights

• Confusion and fear

These are not merely psychological; they can be spiritual signs of demonic infestation. Many believers who once engaged in Colour Therapy or similar practices later required deliverance ministry to be set free from torment.

Deuteronomy 18:10-12: “There shall not be found among you anyone who... practices divination, or tells fortunes, or interprets omens... For whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord.”

---

Scripture Warning Against Charmers and Occult Healing

Going to a charmer or spiritual healer is a serious offense before God. It places trust in the created rather than the Creator. God's Word is clear:

Leviticus 19:31: “Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritists, for you will be defiled by them.”

Isaiah 8:19: “When someone tells you to consult mediums and spiritists, should not a people inquire of their God?”

These practices invite spiritual darkness, not healing. A Christian seeking help from New Age or occult sources is risking spiritual bondage and deception.

---

Final Warning and Biblical Guidance

No matter how beautiful, peaceful, or scientific Colour Therapy may seem, its roots are not of God. Christians are called to discern spirits (1 John 4:1) and flee from anything opposing Christ. Jesus is our ultimate healer (Isaiah 53:5), and no chakra, colour frequency, or energy manipulation can replace the power of the Holy Spirit.

Methods of discernment:

• Who was the founder of this modality?

• What was his/her spirituality?

• What culture did it come out of?

• What were their beliefs?

• Who is their God or gods?

Many occult practices in Christianity need to be discerned.  Another method of discernment is the Word of God. The word of God is our measuring stick. The more we read the word, know the word, and have a relationship with the Lord, the more we discern right and wrong. We perish from a lack of knowledge.

Hosea 4:6 declares, “My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.”
