what is kinesiology ?

Systematic kinesiology is a holistic natural health care - meaning it looks at the body and its environment as a whole, rather than just the symptoms. It is used by many chiropractors since the 60's. It is all natural, non invasive and works on the 4 aspects of the wellbeing:

-Structural: the body, muscles, vertebraes, joints, posture ;

-Mental: the brain, emotions, thoughts ;

-Chemical: the diet, nutritional deficiencies, intolerances, digestion ;

-Electrical: the energy.

Kinesiology uses muscle response testing to identify health imbalances. We trust the body is full of resources and a lot of answers - for example pain and discomfort are a good indicator to understand that there is a stress or an imbalance in the body. Using muscle testing is a way to measure the motor response of the central nervous system - in other words it is a way to open a dialogue with all the realms of your health. It can determine what stressors can be affecting your health and performance.

Each muscle is linked to an energy channel called a meridian that is itself associated to an organ or a gland. If there is some sort of stress somewhere on any of the 4 levels of the body (structural, emotional, chemical and energetical), the muscle connected to that part will have a different tone. Stresses in the body can come from the environment, injuries, emotions, past traumas, bacteria, viruses, parasites, and also food sensitivities, food deficits… . Too many or too strong imbalances can lower our immunity and sometimes progress to cause diseases (dis-ease). Kinesiology helps finding what triggers the tensions by considering the person as a whole, not just through independent symptoms. It's a bit like looking at a traffic jam from above, rather than just looking at the engine of one car.

The aim is to uncover and correct the root of an imbalance in order to improve our health, our wellbeing and performance, keeping in mind that the symptoms are usually the last resort for our body to tell us something needs adressing. For example, a single emotion can sometimes reduce our appetite, disturb our digestion, or tense our neck muscles. What originally is a mental discomfort (a bad feeling) can become a chemical issue (digestion difficulties) and structural imbalance (neck pain). A back pain could be linked to a digestive issue, an emotional issue or even an hormonal issue. Kinesiology would help find out what needs addressing and how.
