About Brian Madigan
Reiki Master, Advanced Practitioner of Hawaiian Energy Work, Zen Shiatsu Therapist in Vancouver BC
My Background
While the focus of my healing practice is to assist people in dealing with the problems they face as the result of stress on the job, I also offer support to people suffering from any number of physical, emotional, mental or spiritual challenges.
I have been using Energy Healing successfully for the past 15 years with a variety of clients struggling with stress, anxiety and other physical, emotional or spiritual problems.
For the past 8 years I have been offering Energy Healing sessions to clients in Vancouver, British Columbia. My clients who have experienced stress at work have reported improvements in a variety of ways including being more relaxed, sleeping better, better relationships, expressing their needs more clearly and consistently, and finding more peace and joy in their lives.
My Journey to Become an Energy Healer
My personal journey as a healer began in 1993 when I started to explore Hawaiian energy work in Hawaii. I knew that I was being called to a new path. I discovered that I had a natural ability to work with healing energy. Healing work brought me a sense of tranquility and satisfaction from the very start. This new journey led me to many wonderful experiences. Visits to the Hawaiian volcano brought me in touch with the fiery energy of transformation while experiences with the ocean allowed me to understand the peaceful nurturing energy of water. The healing energy of the islands enchanted me. The astounding simplicity and power of the Hawaiian Energy Healing system to restore emotional balance excited me. My passion for assisting others to heal and grow was born.
I was driven to expand my understanding of healing energy and how it impacts human wellness so in 1996 I completed a 240 hour program in Zen Shiatsu. That knowledge expanded and deepened my understanding of the human energy system from the perspective of the meridian system used in Traditional Chinese Medicine. This knowledge of chi (energy) and its passage through the human body allows me to work in a deeper way with energy allowing for more profound benefits in the restoration of health and illness prevention.
I later received Reiki training and certification to the Master level in the Seichem system. I was immediately impressed with the simplicity and effectiveness of Reiki treatments. Reiki’s gentle approach uses light hand pressure allowing the client’s body to receive only the energy it requires. This avoids the over-manipulation and pain that can sometimes be associated with traditional massage techniques, while activating the body’s healing mechanisms and releasing the client’s stress in their lives and at work. The body mind and spirit of the client are empowered to heal themselves while I guide them through the healing process.
The gentleness, safety and effectiveness of Reiki and Hawaiian Energy Work have made them the cornerstones of my healing practice.
Out of the Jungle
While pursuing my education in healing, I was engaged in a successful career in Information Technology. Through giving and receiving healing sessions I was able to make peace with the madness of my everyday life. I developed a clearer understanding of the effect that stress I was experiencing at work was having on my body.
I began to take steps to deal with the stress I felt due to my work. like exercising more, and paying closer attention to my diet. I began to relax more and to not be so concerned when things went wrong at the office, which they inevitably do. I made time for myself and renewed my meditation practice. I soon began to make more time for my partner and my friends as well. I managed a successful career alongside a small but thriving Energy Healing practice.
I knew from my work with my clients how damaging the career treadmill and the resulting stress at work can be. I saw many of the same issues in my own life. I was dealing with stress well, my life was more pleasant than it had been in many years, but I still wasn’t doing work that mattered to me. I understood that the only way I could be truly happy and fulfilled was to contribute to the wellness of other people.
I‘ve faced the challenges of changing my career and am happier that I have ever been. My relationship with my partner is thriving. I have time to take care of myself with regular exercise and meditation. I’m doing work I love, helping people, and making a difference in the world
