What is Kinesiology?
Kinesiology is a natural therapy that is leading the way in energy medicine. It uses the gentle art of muscle monitoring to access information about a person’s well being. It combines Western techniques and Eastern wisdom to promote physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health.
Originating with research from chiropractor Dr George Goodheart in the 1960’s, it was discovered that muscle testing could be used to gather information from the body.
What is muscle monitoring?
It is the single defining feature of kinesiology, and it determines the integrity of the muscle.
It's often referred to as the neuro-muscular biofeedback and gives instant access to holistic information held by the core operating unit of the entire mind/body system - the innate or unconscious. This normally inaccessible neural substrate holds all our memories, information about physical, emotional, mental and energetic states, and also determines our muscle tension.
How does Kinesiology work?
Blocks or stresses within and around the human body affect functioning of our bio-systems, resulting in changes in energy. Because muscle monitoring challenges the bio-feedback mechanism present in all muscles, it reveals imbalances within and around the body. The findings may present as physical pain, mental discomfort and the many expressions of dis-ease. These can include allergies, depression, postural problems, poor performance levels, learning and relationship difficulties, digestive and nervous disorders - whatever the presenting problem, the system is saying it is malfunctioning.
The real goal of any Kinesiology ‘balance’ is to identify the bottom-line cause of any imbalance and then assist the body to resolve it.

is a Japanese healing technique that is simple yet profound. It is a form of energy healing to balance and transform the mind, body and spirit. Usui Mikao founded the system of Reiki in Japan in the early 1900s.
The word Reiki when translated into western dialect means Universal Life Force Energy or Sacred Energy and is used to describe the actual energy that practitioners work with. This energy is the fuel that drives humans from the inner core, and gives us purpose in life.
Reiki treatments are natural and non-invasive, and often compliment orthodox medicine. It is increasingly accepted in health and community care facilities including hospitals, hospices and cancer support units.
