Kinesiology

What is Kinesiology?

Kinesiology is a safe, gentle, and non-invasive therapy that helps your body achieve its natural balance and optimal healing. This holistic approach uses muscle testing to identify and address the root causes of health concerns. Kinesiology views the body as an interconnected system of structure, chemistry, emotions, spirituality, and energy, aiming to facilitate overall harmony and well-being.

How Can Kinesiology Help Me?

Franklin Acupuncture & Wellness uses kinesiology to complement TCM & acupuncture to help you achieve optimal health. Kinesiologists use manual muscle testing to obtain direct feedback from your body. During a muscle test, you resist light pressure on a specific muscle, revealing your body’s response rather than just muscle strength. This method helps identify blockages in your system, uncover emotional and stress factors, and determine the best actions to restore balance. Kinesiology can be particularly beneficial for:

  • Nutritional and sensitivity advice
  • Muscle balancing for pain relief
  • Optimizing body and brain function
  • Achieving lifestyle balance
  • Overcoming emotional roadblocks to personal goals and aspirations

What to Expect During Your Clinic Visit

Your initial visit will be more comprehensive, focusing on your personal health history, reasons for seeking kinesiology, and your desired outcomes. As you are the expert on yourself, we use muscle testing to understand the nature of your issue and determine the most appropriate corrective techniques. These may include:

  • Acupressure to stimulate Qi (energy) and improve blood circulation
  • Neurolinguistic techniques for behavioral change
  • Stress release methods
  • Nutritional support
  • Allergy support
  • Chakra balancing

Many clients find a series of three acupuncture treatments alternating with kinesiology balance to be particularly effective in achieving their health goals.

More on Kinesiology

Touch for Health

Touch For Health is a fundamental and pioneering healing method for activating and ‘switching on’ the human body. It is designed to release pain and stress naturally using simple muscle testing feedback techniques to identify the sources of stress which lead to chronic pains, illness, mental fogginess and other related facets of diseases. Touch For Health will help hone in on key stressors and quickly helps one to identify the most effective means of correcting the imbalance. It may be described as a users guide or operating system for communicating directly with the human body. Touch For Health was written by Dr. John Thie and published in 1973. It is based directly on the Applied Kinesiology work of Dr. Goodheart as well as on Dr. Thie’s own experience while working with patients, taking what worked best for him and incorporating it into his book.

SIPS

SIPS is an acronym for Stress Indicator Point System. It is a revolutionary way of balancing the body electrics by specifically assessing muscles, tendons, ligaments of the joints and addressing emotions at the primary level. It has been described as the most innovative and powerful Kinesiology techniques to be developed in recent years. It was developed in 1992 by Ian Stubbings of Australia as a result of his desire to discover a more efficient way of balancing OF (Over Facilitated) and UF (Under Facilitated) muscles states.

Quantum Reflex Analysis (QRA)

Quantum Reflex Analysis (QRA) is an advanced system of kinesiology using the scientifically researched ‘Bi-digital O-ring’ technique. This university-proven energy testing technique has been shown in numerous research studies to be both reliably accurate and to generate reproducible results. QRA combines aspects of traditional Chinese therapy with the latest findings in bioenergetic therapy to help the practitioner gain insight into what the body may need to support healing. During a QRA session the practitioner tests key acupressure points on the body to determine a weak or strong bio-energetic response. A component of QRA is to be able to assess the energetic strength of supplements, medicines and foods specific to the client.

NAET®

NAET® was discovered by Dr. Devi S. Nambudripad in 1983. Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Techniques, also known as NAET, are a non-invasive, drug free, natural solution to alleviate allergies of all types and intensities using a blend of selective energy balancing, testing and treatment procedures from acupuncture/acupressure, allopathy, chiropractic, nutritional, and kinesiological disciplines of medicine.

One allergen is treated at a time. If you are not severely immune deficient, you may need just one treatment to desensitize one allergen. A person with mild to moderate amount of allergies may take about 15-20 office visits to desensitize 15-20 food and environmental allergens.

Basic essential nutrients are treated during the first few visits. Chemicals, environmental allergens, vaccinations, immunizations, etc. are treated after completing about ten basic essential nutrients. NAET can successfully alleviate adverse reactions to egg, milk, peanuts, penicillin, aspirin, mushrooms, shellfish, latex, grass, ragweed, flowers, perfume, animal dander, animal epithelial, make-up, chemicals, cigarette smoke, pathogens, heat, cold, other environmental agents. It may take several office visits to desensitize a severe allergen.
