The Electric You
Exploring the Energetic & Electrical Composition of the Human Body
When we think about our bodies, we often focus on flesh, bones, and biochemistry without considering that the body is also a finely tuned electrical and energetic system. From the beat of your heart to the spark of a thought, every cell hums with energy. At Dyad Skin and Wellness in Kansas City, we believe true wellness requires awareness of both the energetic and physical body.
The Body Electric
A Spark of Life
At the most basic level, the human body is made up of atoms, and atoms are composed of charged particles—protons, neutrons, and electrons. The movement of these electrons creates electrical currents, especially in your nervous system, where neurons fire via electrochemical impulses. This is how your brain communicates with your body.
For example, your heart beats in response to electrical signals generated by the sinoatrial node, your body's natural pacemaker. The skin, too, conducts electrical currents and can even be measured with galvanic sensors to assess emotional and autonomic activity.

Your Biofield
The Body’s Electromagnetic Aura
Beyond traditional biology lies the concept of the biofield—an energetic field said to surround and permeate the body. This isn’t just woo-woo talk. Research in the field of energy medicine, like the NIH-funded studies on biofield therapies, suggests that the body's electromagnetic field may play a role in healing, pain regulation, and emotional balance.
These fields are influenced by everything from your thoughts and emotions to the food you eat and the frequencies you're exposed to, including sound, light, and even human touch. Practices like Reiki, acupuncture, vibration and sound therapy all aim to rebalance or restore these energetic frequencies.
Cells as Batteries
Voltage at the Micro Level
Every cell in your body is like a tiny battery. The mitochondria—your cellular power plants—generate energy in the form of ATP, and the movement of ions across the cell membrane generates voltage. Aging, illness, and chronic stress can deplete this “cellular charge,” which is why therapies like red light therapy, structured water, and whole-body vibration are gaining popularity—they help restore cellular voltage and vitality.
