Kinesiology – the science of energy balancing
Kinesiology can be used for pain -  stress (physical/emotional/mental) – digestive and nutritional issues -  fatigue and tiredness – back/shoulder/arm/jaw problems – learning difficulties – trauma – allergic reactions – respiratory issues – nervousness – sports injuries – personal development – general wellbeing – hormonal imbalances. It can help almost anyone. It is not limited to dealing with ailments. Energy balancing brings a person closer to achieving any goal of their choice – in sport, relationships, learning or coping with life generally.

Kinesiology is the most holistic of all the natural therapies and recognises the importance of body, mind and spirit in health and healing. We recognise that the body has an innate healing energy and is always doing its best to care for itself, but sometimes it needs to be helped into a better position to achieve this. Kinesiology recognises that the flows of energy in the body relate to every muscle, tissue and organ that makes the body a living, feeling being. These energy flows can be evaluated by testing the function of the muscles which in turn shows the client where their body’s structural, emotional, chemical or other energies are out of balance. The imbalances occur as a result of injury, trauma, nutritional or other unresolved stress. Kinesiology taps into energy systems that more conventional therapies overlook and uses a broad spectrum of techniques to balance them. Kinesiology looks beyond symptoms, does not treat named diseases nor does it diagnose them. It is concerned solely with imbalances in the body’s energy systems. The balance is a non-invasive process. Professional Kinesiology Practice is unique in that we find the involved emotion with each technique used and by talking through the relevance of these emotions, the process gives the client new awareness of choice and long lasting change.

Reiki
Reiki is a healing system where the practicioner places their hands near you, or on you, and the healing energy automatically flows through the therapist into your own body. The energy permeates around the body to where it is needed. The beauty of Reiki is that it works with the cause as well as the resulting effect of disharmony.
