Kinesiology
Applied Kinesiology is a system of complimentary healthcare that uses simple muscle testing to evaluate areas of imbalance in the body. It is based on the principle that muscles, nerves and organs are interconnected and by observing strengths and weakness of different muscle tests one can locate various imbalances in the body, whether structural, chemical or emotional. When a person experiences poor health it is due to an imbalance in one or more of these areas. Kinesiology is probably one of the most holistic of the complimentary therapies as it aims to restore optimal balance in these key areas and incorporates a range of techniques to get results from gentle manipulation, nutritional therapy and emotional release techniques.
​
A kinesiology session involves lying fully clothed on a treatment couch and being guided through a series of muscle tests to evaluate
the key area of imbalance and the appropriate nutrition or remedy to support this. It is a simple and effective method to evaluate for nutrient deficiencies/ imbalances; food intolerances/ allergies; toxin excess and Infection (including bacterial/ parasitic/ fungal overgrowth). One or more of these factors may relate to the root cause of a persons symptoms. Clients can also expect to have specific lymphatic and meridian acupressure points rubbed, held or tapped which stimulates circulation and energy and facilitates removal of toxins. This is usually very relaxing. To support emotional issues, specific stress points may be held and Bach Flower Remedies incorporated into the treatment plan.

To ensure optimal results following the session clients are encouraged to engage with the treatment plan. This may involve lifestyle changes, avoiding foods should they are intolerant to or taking some supplements. It is suggested that all clients drink plenty of water, exercising appropriately and eat a healthy balanced diet including, good quality protein, fresh fruit and vegetables, healthy fats and complex carbohydrates.
