A: Imagine if you could ask your body what you needed to enjoy vibrant health and well-being, and actually have your body answer back.
This is the founding principle of Health Kinesiology™ (HK) – a long established BioEnergetic system that combines the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with the modern technique of muscle testing.
HK is a very gentle, non-invasive system of holistic health care and is suitable for all ages from new born babies to the elderly. It accesses your body’s unique inner wisdom to find out exactly what you need to help you restore balance and feel truly healthy, both inside and out.
A: Because Health Kinesiology™ corrects imbalances throughout the whole BioEnergetic system; the list of health concerns that it has been reported to help with, both physical and emotional, is literally endless! HK removes excess stresses from the client’s life, which then frees the body/mind to tap into its own innate ability to heal itself.
What Is HK? BioEnergy balancing from Health Kinesiology
A: As HK helps to correct imbalances throughout the whole BioEnergetic system, the list of physical and emotional concerns that it can help with are infinite:
BioEnergetic Allergies, Arthritic Pain, Alopecia, Chronic Fatigue, Diarrhea, Digestive Problems, Depression, Emotional Distress, Eye Problems, Headaches, Hormonal Problems, IBS, Insomnia, Menopause, Migraine, Mood Swings, Muscular Pain, Phobias, PMS, Poor Memory, Poor Self-Esteem, Skin Problems, Stress, Tension, Unhappiness, Sadness, plus many others.
A: No. As well being as an effective system that can help to alleviate physical/mind concerns, HK can also help to:
-
- Overcome Fears, Phobias and Worries
- Increase Self-Confidence
- Enhance Sporting & Musical Abilities
- Become More Focused
- Increase Your Potential
- Improve Relationships
- Develop Your Abilities
- Become Calmer & More Positive
- Improve Intellectual Functioning
- Plus much, much more……..
A: HK uses a muscle-testing technique that accesses the body’s unique inner wisdom, to determine where blockages lie along the body’s 14 energy meridians. Using this information, your HK practitioner then performs a range of corrective techniques specifically tailored to the clients’ individual needs.
A: You, the client, lie down fully clothed on a couch, with one forearm resting at right angles to the couch. The HK practitioner asks your body a question, or introduces a stress item, (either an actual item or a thought), and gently exerts a light pressure on your arm to ascertain the level of resistance that your muscle is able to give.
If the muscle relaxes and ‘gives way’ this is interpreted as a ‘NO’ response or an indication that the item being tested is causing stress to your body or mind in some way. If the muscle remains strong and rigid, this is interpreted as a ‘YES’ response or an indication that the item is not causing stress to the body.
The HK practitioner follows a tried and tested series of questions, interpreting the answers from the muscle testing each time. In this way, the HK practitioner can discover what is weakening you, physically or emotionally, and more importantly, they can establish what is needed to strengthen you!
The practitioner will then perform the BioEnergetic corrections necessary to relieve the stressors and by relieving the stress on the system, the body/mind is then freed up to implement its own innate self-healing process.
A range of other muscles can be used to carry out this muscle testing technique if needs be.
A: The most common stress item is simply a particular thought or emotional feeling. You may be asked to think about a particular situation in your life that you found distressing or difficult to cope with. Once the muscle has tested weak, the practitioner will then hold specific acupressure points, (no needles), to relieve the blocked energy that has built up in the meridian energy system, in relation to that particular stress. Other common stress items used during HK sessions are magnets, essences, foods, chemical substances or homoeopathic substances.
A: Yes. Many HK practitioners run Bio-Allergy awareness clinics and days where they do just affordable Bio-Allergy testing. It is then up to you to carry out any information offered.
A: The number of sessions needed varies from individual to individual and depends on the reason(s) for you having HK. The average is approximately three to seven sessions, but it may be less or more depending on your individual circumstances. Your practitioner will be able to give you an approximate number at your first session.
A: The first session can last from one hour to one and a half hours, as the practitioner will compile information on your history, your goals or concerns plus other relevant information. Later sessions will also last 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
A: Your practitioner will use muscle testing to determine how long is needed before your next session, but it is usually a period of approximately one to three weeks. The period determined by your body is to allow the corrections from one session to process smoothly before starting on the following session. In acute cases it may be more often at the beginning and then spread out to once a month.
A: Prior to your first HK session you will be asked to complete a personal information form that includes a question about any medication that you are currently on. HK works alongside conventional medicine, but it’s a good idea to take along any medicines or supplements that you are currently taking to your first session and, in certain circumstances, you may be asked to consult with your GP while you are having HK.
A: HK practitioners do not diagnose what is wrong with you. By using Health Kinesiology™ they can help to identify what you need to help you restore your body’s natural balance, so that you can feel good and look good. Health Kinesiology™ does not directly treat or cure any disease or condition. However, Health Kinesiology™ does work to restore the natural energy balance of the meridian system. In turn, this energy balance helps to improve the health condition of the body. Therefore, anyone with any condition can benefit from the application of Health Kinesiology™.
You will be asked to sign the following consent to treatment:
I understand that I give my consent to the practitioners of East House Natural Health Center to conduct a session of Health Kinesiology™ with me.
I also understand that Health Kinesiology™ does NOT directly treat any physical diseases, disorders, ailments, etc. Health Kinesiology™ work is for the body’s underlying energy system.
I also understand that Health Kinesiology™ is NOT psychotherapy. It deals with emotional issues on an energy level, not a conscious level. It does NOT deal with, nor is it related to parapsychology.
I understand that Health Kinesiology™ is a complementary health program and does not diagnose disease or conditions, nor does it replace the care of your physician.
A: Once your concerns have been dealt with correctly and the practitioner has muscle-tested that no more work is needed, then your problems should not return. However, life traumas or changes in circumstances can stress the body once again, so once or twice-yearly top-up sessions are recommended as a preventative measure.
HK can also help with geopathic stress, a negative energy emanating from the earth. This is more prevalent in some places than others, so, if you move house or change your place of work and start to feel out of balance again, then it may be time for some more HK work to deal with the geopathic stress.
A: The ancient Chinese discovered subtle pathways of energy that run around the body just under the surface of the skin. They mapped these pathways and marked various points along the pathways as being particularly significant. They found that these points can be used to release excess/blocked energy from the pathways, much in the same way that slip-roads release excess traffic from blocked motorways!
There are 14 main meridians on the human body. Two of them run directly up the centre of the body, one at the front, one at the back. The remaining 12 meridians are bi-lateral – i.e. they are in pairs, one on the left and one on the right of the body.
The Chinese discovered that each of these meridians directs energy into one of the main organs of the body (for example, we have a pair of meridians each for our liver, heart, lungs and kidneys). If the meridian becomes blocked, or malfunctions in some other way, the organ does not receive its usual amount of energy and becomes under-energised. It therefore doesn’t work as effectively and this can cause imbalances within the body. An organ can also become over-energised when too much energy is directed into it by a meridian.
The Chinese also found that certain emotions tended to under or over-energise particular meridians and so our thoughts and emotions can influence the functioning of our internal organs and bodies. For example, the kidney and bladder meridians are particularly influenced by fear and anxiety – most people can recall occasions when they have felt fearful and have had to visit the toilet more often than usual!
A: Health Kinesiology™ (HK) was invented by Jimmy Scott Ph.D. an American Psychologist who now lives in Canada. It originated from principles developed from the ancient Chinese art of acupuncture and from Applied Kinesiology that is used by chiropractors, osteopaths, dentists, etc.
Instead of using needles or manipulation, the HK practitioner simply holds various acupressure points on the body to bring the body’s energy system into harmony and balance. This allows the body’s natural healing mechanisms to work more effectively so that you can reach your full potential, both physically and emotionally.
