What Energyology™ is
For the body there is medicine. For behavior and the psyche there is psychology. Who explains what happens in a person’s energy field? For that I have described a discipline of its own and given it a name: Energyology™, energy field mechanics.
Energyology™ · energy field mechanics
Energyology™ explains how an energy field is built and how it works. It is a third discipline alongside medicine and psychology, and it complements both.

A third discipline alongside medicine and psychology
A problem can sit in three places. What concerns the body belongs to medicine. What concerns behavior and the psyche belongs to psychology. What lies in the energy field is the domain of Energyology™. Each place has its own discipline, with its own knowledge and its own tools.
It matters to me to work where a problem actually lies. If you start in the wrong place, no amount of effort will help. For knee pain, medicine is the right place to go, not Energyology™. For questions of behavior, it is psychology. If something lies in the energy field, medicine and psychology can’t do much there, just as Energyology™ can’t do much for the knee.
“It does not compete with any other discipline. It complements it.”

Why I gave it a name
For a long time I described energy field mechanics only in my work, not on paper. When I began writing it down as a model in 2026, it needed a name. I called it Energyology™ because it is meant to stand next to psychology and complement it. The name sounds like psychology or biology on purpose: it names a field of knowledge, not a product.
Energyology™ is protected as a trademark. The symbol after the name points to that.
Mechanics, not a matter of belief
Many people connect energy work with esotericism, spirituality or faith. Energyology™ aims for the opposite: energy work should be understandable and repeatable. An energy field follows a logic of its own, and this logic can be described like the mechanics of a clock. You don’t have to believe in it.
“because it is repeatable, it is understandable, and it is not religious, esoteric or spiritual in flavor, but because it is a mechanical process”
Rico Brunner on Energyology
Energyology™ is an experience-based model. It organizes what I have observed in my practice since 1998, and it has not been tested in a laboratory. How I came to these observations is described in the Research section. How you can read the model is described under How to read Energyology.

- Does Energyology replace a visit to the doctor or a psychologist?
- No. Energyology™ complements medicine and psychology. What concerns the body belongs to medicine. What concerns behavior belongs to psychology.
- Is Energyology esotericism?
- No. Energyology™ describes the energy field as mechanics, without religion and without belief. The aim is for it to be understandable and repeatable.
- Is Energyology scientifically proven?
- No. It is an experience-based model from my practice since 1998. What it is and what it is not is described under How to read Energyology.
- What does Energyology have to do with your work?
- Energyology™ describes how an energy field works. My work starts there. How I work is described in the How I work section.
- Where can I find more?
- At energyology.com and on the pages of this section.
