Access Bars
®
Access Bars® is a gentle, energy-based technique designed to quiet mental clutter, encourage deep relaxation, and create more space for clarity, ease, and change.
Developed by Gary Douglas, founder of Access Consciousness®, Access Bars® is a gentle technique that involves lightly touching 32 specific points on the head, known as "bars". These points are associated within the Access Bars® system with different areas of life, thoughts, beliefs, and patterns.
​
The intention is to create space for mental activity to quiet, stress to soften, and a greater sense of ease and clarity to emerge.
​
​Think of it like a computer that has accumulated too many open files. Over time, our minds can feel much the same way; filled with thoughts, worries, expectations, and patterns that keep running in the background. Access Bars offers a quiet space to step away from the mental noise and simply allow the mind and body to settle.

​Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is simply let go.
What to Expect
You will lie comfortably on the treatment table while gentle contact is maintained on various points around the head. There is nothing you need to do or figure out during the session. The experience is quiet and deeply relaxing, and some people drift into a deep meditative state or even fall asleep.
How to Prepare

✓ Hydrate before your appointment
✓ Minimize caffeine immediately beforehand if possible

What You May Notice Afterward
