The Assemblage Point is said to be the energetic vortex through which we we are ‘assembled’ as we incarnate from spirit into matter. According to this idea, the Assemblage Point is the main point where our energy field connects with our physical body and is directly connected with our Life-Force energy or 'Chi'. In a healthy system, the Assemblage Point should be located between the nipples in the centre of the chest (interestingly in various spiritual systems this area is also said to be the location of the energetic 'Heart Centre' - which is in my opinion the bridge between 'Heaven and Earth' i.e. 'spirit and matter'). This spot can actually be detected via thermo-imaging scans. However, it is quite common for it to be ‘knocked’ out of place, through for example trauma, illness, shock and substance misuse. This can cause many physical/emotional/psychological and energetic problems (see diagram). It can also render any other type of treatment less effective due to the underlying state of imbalance.  A helpful metaphor is having a building with unstable foundations - the foundations must be attended to first as patching up will only provide temporary solutions. The location of the Assemblage Point can be detected using dowsing rods and then moved back to its correct position, helping the energy field to come back to its optimal state of equilibrium and flow.
