What is Kinesiology?

It was developed by Chiropractor George Goodheart in 1964 from osteopathic techniques in the 1920s.

Kinesiology supports the whole person on a journey back to wellness by using muscle response testing, a way of reading the energetic biofeedback system from your body.

Kinesiology Muscle response testing gives your body a “voice”.

When we test a muscle, it enables your body to tell me what your imbalances are and which meridians are out of balance or blocked. The body does this by changing a muscle response. Whenever we move an arm or a limb, there is a message from the brain, down the spinal cord, to the muscle, to tell it to move and contract, and then there is a message back again.

I will ask you to lie down on the therapy couch, comfortably, ask permission if it is alright to touch and I muscle test limbs in certain positions. You simply match my gentle pressure.

I gently touch areas on the body and if required gentle massage techniques on lymphatic reflex points, spinal reflex points, alarm points, acupuncture points, meridians, the jaw, head etc. If you have been dehydrated, I will offer water to drink and then will test.

In muscle testing:

Biochemical = Improving breathing, Testing for food allergies and intolerances, sensitivities, Nutritional balancing
Emotional = Causes and effects of emotional stress, fears, phobias and anxiety, Learning Difficulties, Self Esteem
Energetic = Keeping the body’s different energies in balance, Working with Meridians
Structural = Relieving muscle pain.

Kinesiologists work to bring the body back into balance.
