Systematic Kinesiology - What Does It Involve?
Headaches,
colds and back ache are apparently the most common
health complaints – oh, and stress… But stress itself is
not a health complaint, it is our body’s reaction to the
negative effects of stress that’s the problem – which
can manifest in symptoms such as headaches, colds and
back ache, to name but a few.
If left untreated, all our symptoms, niggles, pains and worries CAN escalate into something much bigger. We seem to have a culture which expects illness with age….”what do you expect.. you’re getting on a bit”.. “can’t expect to have as much energy now you’re 40/50/60…” but there really is no need to fall into this trap.
Of course, apparently innocuous symptoms can be an indication that there is something far more serious going on. As a Complementary Health Practitioner I never advocate that I am a substitute for allopathic medicine, but I have helped countless clients with extremely debilitating illnesses without recourse to conventional medicine.
Kinesiology
is a preventative health treatment that uses muscle
response to gauge imbalances in the body – not disease,
imbalance. Each muscle is connected to an organ and
Chinese meridian pathway. The purpose of a muscle is to
“fire” or resist pressure. If a muscle, when tested
with gentle pressure, is spongy or weak, this means
there is an imbalance in that “circuit” which can
potentially lead to “dis-ease” in the organ because
energy is not flowing sufficiently. Once a weak muscle
is found we need to find what will help correct it and
restore to health – or balance. A muscle can be weak
for one or any combination of four reasons – it can be
structural damage, (ligament, tendon, spinal
misalignment), nutritional or chemical imbalance (either
toxin overload or
nutritional
deficiency), emotional imbalance (clients are amazed
when I show the effect of a thought on a previously
strong muscle) and electrical or electromagnetic
energetical imbalance (mobile phones, Bluetooth,
radiation, smog, pollution etc).
Approaches to Treatment
All
of these weaknesses or imbalances detected using muscle
testing can be corrected with a range of treatments,
nutritional supplements, herbal remedies, cutting
certain food out of diet temporarily, bach flowers,
crystals, chakra healing, emotional stress release
techniques…..and there is no guesswork involved.
In a way, seeing a Kinesiologist is like seeing a
Chiropractor, Nutritionist, Acupuncturist and Massage
Therapist all rolled into one! With the aid of muscle
testing Kinesiologists can always be sure that the
treatment they are giving is what the body wants because
everyone is unique and needs a different treatment.
Headaches and back ache are
often caused by dehydration or poor bowel movements.
Being “regular” does not mean every 3 days…!! My
tutor told me a “body is only as healthy as the fluids
running through it” so it’s essential to drink lots of
pure clean water (not fizzy). Colds and frequent
infections can be an emotional response – often colds
are at their worst when adrenalin stops pumping after a
particularly intense period of pressure as the adrenalin
is no longer required and the body gives in.
Poor immunity can be helped with zinc, vitamin c or
Echinacea and B complex is wonderful for general nervous
system complaints. However it’s not just the
supplementation that is required – with kinesiology we
can incorporate all realms in the one treatment and
identify what is REALLY the priority.
