Kinesiology
Kinesiology - what is your body trying to tell you?
The aim of a PKP Kinesiology balance.
A PKP Kinesiologist is interested in improving a person's health and vitality and does not diagnose or prescribe. This is because we work in another dimension. Our purpose is to work with and balance the subtle energy systems of the body which are not part of the medical model. We help you obtain, maintain and improve health by helping you become more aware of the very specific needs of your body.
Muscle Testing
Kinesiology uses the language of muscle testing, (often referred to as neuromuscular feedback) to tap into our body's own inner intellegence. This does not measure the strength of your muscles, but whether they are locked or unlocked in relation to what you want to achieve, whether that is improved health or achieving a particular goal. The feedback we receive from this information gives us a picture of what is happening within the body, shows us the techniques we need to use to help relieve any symptom(s) you might have and discover the underlying cause(s) of your problem.
Muscle testing for a kinesiologist is different to that used in physiotherapy or sports science because it is not a test of absolute strength or weakness of a muscle. It is the information that we recieve when we apply light pressure to a contracted muscle while the client tries to match the pressure applied by the kinesiologist. This is called neuromuscular feedback, determining if a muscle is locked (strong) or unlocked (weak) and is our way of accessing the sub-conscious and our inbuilt ability to heal.
How does kinesiology work?
We link Ancient Chinese principles of energy with Western anatomy any physiology using muscle testing as our bio feedback system.
Kinesiology recognises that there are flows of energy or "life force" within the body that relate to all muscles, tissues, organs and glands, which make us living, feeling beings. These energies should inter-communcate and work harmoniously so that the body is able to function in the best possible way to remain healthy. Due to the amount of information it processes and the number of stressors our body has to deal with on a daily basis it sometimes needs help to achieve this.
By using precise muscle testing as previously described, kinesiology allows us to tap into the body's inner communication systems, find out precisely what is causing the imbalances and we are able to correct them using safe techniques. Scanners can now show that thinking about something brings about the same energy and blood flow to the brain as actually seeing or doing it. By working with a goal or intention in mind, the feedback and corrections we make from the muscle testing enables the body to heal itself or can help you to get closer to achieving a particular goal or dream in life.
