The origins of Acces Bars
In the 1990’s, Gary Dougles started discovering the 32 points/bars on the head and practicing mainly on his daughters. He had sessions in his garage, not yet having a name for the method. With experience, the first important aspect that emerged was Access, later Consciousness to finally create Access Consciousness. Access Consciousness has since grown and more methodologies added, but Access Bars remains the first, founding step of any journey they offer.
The 32 bars have now been described, concepts further developed and added. The method can be applied with minor adjustments in specific situations (up to the last moments of life).

An Access Bars session
A session takes around an hour (count on 75 minutes to allow room for preliminary/debriefing) with the typical course:
- Intake/Anamnesis: discussion about the goals of the session, complaints and potential medical hindrance as a basis
- We move to the massage table, without shoes (but fully clothed). Lying down comfortably on the back, gentle touch is applied to to a combination of points, a couple of minute at a time, before moving on to the next combination.* The session takes place in silence.
- Finally, we calmly return to the chairs to discuss any questions and to arrange payment. A follow-up or rhythm of sessions can be set up.
The effects on sleep and clarity are expected to last 1 to 2 weeks – in times of high stress it is thus advisable to repeat every 7-10 days!
*In a first session a “clearing statement” is used at the start to facilitate full benefits of the session.
