Matrix Energetics (ME)
Kimberly Burnham, PhD,
Integrative Manual Therapy Certified,
Matrix Energetics Certified Practioner
Perhaps today is the day to improve your physical, emotional and social health. Starting with Descarte the mind, thoughts and consciousness have been considered quite separate from the physical body. There are people who see changing their mind as a much simpler thing than changing their physical appearance or physical body’s health.
In this day and age, with the advent of Quantum Physics, New Physics approaches, Matrix Energetics and the whole field of Energy Medicine, perhaps this is the day to apply ideas from psychology and mind based approaches to the physical body and vice versa.
There has been much written about using our minds, thoughts, images and ideas to change our behavior, something that is often seen as being in the psychological realm but what of the behavior of our cells. Is it possible to apply the same concepts of psychology, learning, growth and growing up to our physical bodies at a cellular level?
Can we visualize overall health in the realms of the physical, emotional and social and have an impact for ourselves, our family, friends and clients?
I know the answer is yes and think the way to do it is by noticing and exploring the best passage ways in that moment. The doors leading into those passage ways of healthy change come from many fields of study, many countries, many people. As the Japanese say, "There are many ways to get to the top of Mount Fuji."
These are some of the ways.
Introducing Your Health Coach: Kimberly Burnham
I look forward to working with you and learning about your health needs and goals. Please feel free to contact me via email with any questions you may have. I'm here to support you in your effort to create the life you desire.
I have a diverse educational background which has allowed me to see as the Japanese say, “there many ways to get to the top of Mount Fuji.” I completed my PhD in Integrative Medicine in 2006 on "The Effect of Integrative Manual Therapy on the Symptom’s of Parkinson's Disease." and have done substantial research into the benefits of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) enabling me to understand the health concerns of my clients and work as part of a health care team, when desired, communicating effectively with my client as well as their health care providers.
In 1993, I graduated Sutherland-Chan Massage Therapy School in Toronto, Canada. An excellent education there prepared me for a move into the health care field. I also spent 5 years studying at the Canadian College of Osteopathy, which helped me each individual person in a holistic way. My training in cranial work, energy medicine, Brain Stimulating Method, Listening with the Whole Body, Clinical Hypnotherapy, and Non-Violent Communication has developed my ability to listen to the client and perceive shifts as they progress towards their goals.
I have been in private practice using Integrative Medicine, Manual Therapy, Matrix Energetics and Health Coaching for the last two years in West Hartford, CT as well as consulting in a number of physical therapy clinics across the country. Before that as the Director of Knowledge Management at the Center for Integrative Manual Therapy, I answered questions for clients, students and the general public about what non-surgery and non-medication related therapies can do for healing and health. Two of my favorite quotes around the potential of an integrative approach to health and consciousness are, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." Arthur C Clarke, Science Fiction Writer and "Magic is the art of causing changes in consciousness at will" Dion Fortune.
My global perspective on health and good living is the result of growing up in Colombia and in Belgium and later teaching English and studying shiatsu in Japan. My favorite place in all the world to Scuba dive is the Red Sea off the coast of the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt. I agree with Albert Einstein that , “the most important decision we make is whether we believe we live in a friendly or hostile universe.." My world view is that we live in an abundant universe supportive of each of us having quality of life.
I currently live in West Hartford, CT with my partner and enjoy traveling, most recently working in Germany and touring Turkey, where I visited a memorial to Rumi, one of my favorite poets who said, "There is a field out beyond right and wrong. I will meet you there.".
I practice Tibetan meditation, Wisdom Healing Qigong and love growing fruits and vegetables in my garden. These activities center and calm me, allowing me to be more present for my clients. They also empowers me to change and reach my personal goals. As Richard Bartlett, developer of Matrix Energetics says, "Change now, while you still can. Change now because you can, change now because it is the right thing to do. Change now because there is no right, no left, no time left, no space left. Only you. Change"

Appointments with Kimberly Burnham, PhD
Referring to the first time working with an individual, Kim says, "I believe, what we expect and observe, influences what we get. People in my practice can expect my full attention as well as positive changes and progress with their goals. It is best to come to the first session having thought about your goals. If anything, truly anything, can shift about your health, your life, your relationships, your way of being in the world, what do you want? What does "better" look and feel like for you."
