Kinesiology balances the body and restores equilibrium.

Kinesiology

Kinesiology (kin-esi-ology) is a study of body movement which encompasses holistic health disciplines using muscle testing to monitor information about a person's wellbeing. It delves beyond surface symptoms, aiming to uncover underlying causes.

Kinesiology works with energy systems and assists the person to restore flow of their own natural energies, which allows them to maximise their body's healing opportunities.

Through muscle testing we eliminate the guesswork by allowing the body to pinpoint issues precisely and specify its requirements for rebalancing.

Kinesiology draws upon holistic approaches such as neuro lymphatics, neuro emotional and neurovascular points, meridians, massage, counselling, and contemporary self-development techniques.

Good kinesiologists are a blend between a guide, coach, wise observer, and a companion who will walk with you on a journey for a moment and help you look at your life, see what is working and what is not, accept that change is needed and walk beside you as you make positive long-lasting changes that will enable you to live a life of purpose.

Key areas of kinesiology

1. The mental, emotional and spiritual level.

2. Structural (how the body moves) and exercise.

3. Chemical (what goes into our bodies and what is

in the environment) and nutrition.

When all three key areas are balanced, we are

more in harmony with ourselves. If we are for

example, stressed and our mental wellbeing is

affected, we might not move our bodies as much

and this might cause physical pain. When we work

on reducing the stress, the pain may reduce as a

result due to bringing the body back in balance.

The client is involved with all steps of the balance and works closely with the kinesiologist throughout the session.

Our bodies possess an inherent capacity for self-healing, with kinesiologists playing a supportive role in facilitating this natural process towards balance.

What kinesiology can help with

Kinesiology can deal with a wide range of problems to bring the body back into balance.

It does not focus on specific symptoms, but tests for and corrects imbalances, so the list of health issues that kinesiology can support is endless.

Trauma
Depression
Stress & Anxiety
Fears and Phobias
Adrenal Fatigue

How Do We Muscle Test?

Kinesiologists use what we call an “indicator muscle” to ask questions of the body, identify neurological stressors, emotional involvement of issues and to find out what would be beneficial right now to bring it back into balance. For example, we might be eating chocolate and consciously say we are ok with it, but the body might have an issue with the amount of sugar in the chocolate or the emotional relationship with the product.

We typically test with the anterior deltoid muscle (the front of your arm by the shoulder) as this muscle is easy to access. We need to check to see if this muscle is happy to be tested which we do by “switching it off”. This means we turn the signals off between the muscle and the brain with a gentle squeeze of the muscle. This makes the muscle feel relaxed and hard to hold in the testing position. We then switch the muscle back on by pushing the muscle fibres in the opposite direction we squeezed them. It should then hold strong in the testing position.

When testing with a person, we use the muscle testing to find out what is causing a stressor and what would assist in reducing that stress and why it is occurring.

Benefits of muscle testing:

Gets to the heart of a problem
Works with the truth
Accuracy with locating a correction that the body requires
Provides feedback to the kinesiologist
Reveals an accurate picture of the problem at hand

History of Kinesiology

Kinesiology was founded by Dr George Goodheart DC from New York, USA back in the early 1960’s. He gathered a group of associates to teach and further research what we call Applied Kinesiology. One of these associates was Dr John Thie DC who, in the early 1970’s put together Touch for Health for the general public.

Dr Thie DC was responsible for the origin of the International College of Applied Kinesiology. Touch for Health has been taught to millions of people around the world and was the start of a much expanded and researched modality now known as Kinesiology.

Dr Bruce Dewe continued the research and development of the modality along with Dr Richard Gerber MD. Dr Richard Gerber took kinesiology from a medical model and integrated an energetic model. By doing this, it meant that anyone could learn and teach kinesiology.

Today Kinesiology is taught all around the world in person and online.
