HEALTH KINESIOLOGY

Definition: HK is an holistic system of natural health care which uses muscle testing to identify the areas of stress in the body - and in the mind - and then find the best way to remove these stresses by using gentle yet powerful energy-correcting techniques.

Health Kinesiology [pronounced ‘kin-easy-ology’] is an holistic complementary therapy that uses ‘muscle testing’ to identify and supply your body’s specific needs for health improvement. Muscle testing is a gentle way of accessing information from the body’s own inner wisdom, directing the therapist to exactly what treatment the body requires, and in which order, to maximise healing.

There is no need to undress, and HK is perfectly safe for any age group, even pregnant women, tiny babies, or the elderly. The client simply lies comfortably on a couch, raising one forearm at 90º. The therapist then presses gently on the arm, gauging the response of the muscle to a series of questions. This simple form of biofeedback, when combined with precise and logical questioning, can create an individual selection of physical and emotional energy corrections that release stress from the energy meridians that run throughout the body. Corrections can also be applied to the subtle energy system [the aura] and the chakras [energy centres].

In order to address imbalances throughout the mind-body-spirit, an HK therapy session might include any of the following: thinking about a stressful area of your life, moving into certain positions where trauma occurred [eg whiplash, traumatic birth], inhaling essential oils, using homeopathics or flower remedies, magnets, crystals and coloured light. In each case, energy blockages are removed from the meridians and tissues of the body, leaving you feeling lighter, more relaxed and able to cope.

Health Kinesiology is probably the fastest-growing of the kinesiologies in the UK today, but is still relatively unknown to the majority of people, despite the fact that its gentleness belies the transformative power of the energy corrections performed during an HK session.
