Touch For Health Kinesiology
Kinesiology is a chiropractic diagnostic method using muscle testing as a tool to get responses from the nervous system and identify imbalances in your body. It is based on the Chinese perception of energy flow in the body.
How is muscle testing working to access your energy?
You could look at your body as a complex electrical system controlled by the brain. There are constant electrical signals going back and forth between the brain and the other parts of your body and the 639 muscles of your body. Nerves are the “wires”.
Thanks to this brilliant communication system, “balance” is achieved and health is maintained. From birth on, programs are created by your nervous system to help you learn and adapt to
- Structural/physical challenges
- Emotional challenges
- Chemical/nutritional challenges.
However, when you experience a stress, a short circuit can happen between your brain and your muscles. We could say that the communication is interrupted. You stop learning or adapting. You cannot deal with your own life challenges. Illness or symptoms appear. They might appear after many years of stress, or long after a trauma.
Kinesiology looks at all the stresses that can cause un-wellness, disease, or malfunction using the muscle test to get feedback about what is going on inside you.
Correcting imbalances and restoring balance
Once we have assessed when and where the problem took place, we use special correction techniques such as stimulation of acupressure points and meridians, massaging neuro-lymphatic points on your body or working directly on your muscles, as well as the EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) - another powerful tool to get rid of the pain and thinking associated with past events.
Touch For Health Kinesiology in our Practice
Most schools of Kinesiology use the basic techniques of Touch for Health to assess body’s energy and correct imbalances.
After we have gathered information about you and established in what area of your life you want to see a change, we “ask” your muscles to tell us what is currently stressing your body, preventing you from achieving balance. You lie down on a massage table fully clothed. Pressure is applied to various “indicator” muscles to assess their tonus. Then we use correction techniques inspired from both Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western methods.
