TOUCH FOR HEALTH KINESIOLOGY

Touch for Health® is a branch of Kinesiology that was developed in the 1970's by the late John Thie.  He combined techniques from Applied Kinesiology and the theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine to create a simple, but very effective, system of balancing energy that could be learnt and used by lay people to help create better well-being for themselves, their families and friends.  It has since become an accepted therapy in it's own right and the number of practitioners and tutors is growing continually worldwide.

Touch for Health is a method of biofeedback, which uses very gentle muscle response tests (kinesiology) to communicate with your body to identify and correct energetic imbalances,  restoring balance to your energy, muscles, emotions and much more.

It releases energy blocks by using a variety of techniques such as gentle massage of neurolymphatic points, holding of neurovascular points, working with meridians, gaits, figure 8 energy and lots more.

The really great thing about it, is the muscle tests help to uncover underlying imbalances and to pinpoint the preferred methods that ‘your’ body needs to release the blockages and allow energy to be free flowing.

Touch for Health Kinesiology works with the 14 major meridian systems within the body.  Meridians are the invisible energy channels which acupuncture is based on and each is linked to certain muscles, organs and emotions.  When testing a muscle we are not testing the strength, we only use gentle pressure to access information on the meridian system related to that muscle.   All the techniques used in Touch for Health Kinesiology are very gentle.  

A Touch for Health Kinesiology session is known as a 'balance’.   Whatever area of life you feel you'd like to improve, it can be worked on during a 'balance’. 

​

A typical 'balance' will start off with a short discussion about what you would like to acheive, or change, in your life.  This could be physically, emotionally or anything.  We then will 'balance' your energy so that it is in line with what you wish to acheive.
