Kinesiology - a New Healing Science Comes of Age
|
The efficacy of Kinesiology results from the way it works with the body's
innate healing intelligence. It aids the body in its natural drive to restoring
balance, and thus health, to neurological and physiological function.
When everything is functioning well in our system, theoretically we feel
well; we are well beings.
Kinesiology
practitioners undertake years of training to be able to access the
movement of energy - or what the Chinese call Chi - around the body and
brain. The analogy of a bio-computer illustrates rather crudely how it
works.

When there are blocks or stresses preventing smooth energetic transmission,
in turn affecting smooth functioning of our bio-systems, there are
under-energies or over-energies. Both can add up to stresses that can eventually
overwhelm the body's compensatory mechanisms and have their read-out in physical
pains, mental discomfort and the myriad expressions of dis-ease: 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.
Kinesiology encompasses a breadth of therapeutic aids but the real goal of
any 'balance' is to identify the bottom-line cause of this malfunction and then
to resolve it. It might be nutritional, emotional, structural, electrical or
even spiritual - something as simple as an "attitude" or a forgotten
memory.

The essential tool upon which Kinesiology relies is the muscle feedback
system, a handy piece of human wiring that gives instant access into the
holistic information held by the core operating unit of the entire body-mind
system - the subconscious brain.
This normally inaccessible neural substrate holds all of our memories, all
the information about physical, emotional and mental states and it also
determines our muscle tension. A weak muscle test can therefore be an indicator
that stress is having a tellingly negative effect somewhere in the system.
By accessing the bio-system via this remarkable muscle monitoring tool,
Kinesiology can get quite specific and very quickly come up with the right
answers.

What is the best way of releasing or resolving this stress? The body
knows.
The body is already aware of what it needs to heal. What Kinesiology is
able to do in a therapeutic sense, is to facilitate that information in order to
aid that potent, profound and natural healing process.
