Kinesiology

Health Kinesiology has the person touch the allergy test spot, just in front of the ear, and uses an indicator muscle to test the substances which are held against the body just below the navel. Corrections involve tapping specific acupuncture points

These muscles will be those associated with digestive functions such as pectoralis major clavicular (stomach), latissimus dorsi (spleen/pancreas/sugar metabolism), anterior deltoid (gall bladder/fats)

Lung meridian has its highest energy flow between 3 and 5 am and its lowest twelve hours later between 3 and 5 pm. This may explain why some people experience different levels of energy during a day,

There are six different pulses on each wrist on the radial artery, thumb side of wrist, which represent the twelve bilateral meridians. Reading/feeling these Chinese pulses is the most important medium of diagnosis for acupuncturists and requires a considerable amount of skill

Holding the neuro-vascular points on the forehead, which are associated with the pectoralis major clavicular muscle and emotional stress, will stimulate the flow of blood to the front part of the brain. This will activate the area of the brain that we use when making decisions, thus helping to put us back in control

Having looked at this aspect of the triad of health the therapist will then continue to find out what other corrections may be needed to rebalance your body. Placing the food in the body’s energy field is an alternative to placing the food in the mouth. The food is usually held in the region of the navel or against the cheek

If the muscle unlocks when tested and the therapist wants to find out if nutrition will help strengthen the body, s/he will ask the client to hold the food, liquid or supplement in their mouth whilst the muscle is retested. If the muscle now locks and stays firm the body is indicating that the nutrition is needed

Kinesiology offers specific nutritional support for each muscle which can be used as a guide to what you may be needing

What you eat and drink plays a big role in how well your body functions
