Why do you offer nutrition and kinesiology together?
I have found that nutritional therapy and kinesiology complement each other very well. Offering both enables me to:
- check for food intolerance
- nutrient deficiencies or excesses
- pinpoint with better accuracy the underlying causes of ill health whether they are emotional, physical or both
- address past physical and/or emotional trauma
- offer practical nutritional guidance as well as a hands-on and relaxing therapy
- find out if there are any organs or systems (eg. endocrine) that needs support
I would like to point out that although I offer both nutritional therapy and kinesiology, kinesiology is an entirely separate discipline to nutritional therapy, and is covered by a different professional body, Kinesiology Association (KA), of which I am a Diplomate.
What is personalised nutrition?
Personalised nutrition will revolutionise your health. Nutritional therapy restores health and vitality through the application of a tailor-made dietary and lifestyle changes and supplements where appropriate.
I work from a naturopathic and functional medicine standpoint, treating every client as an individual, giving you time to talk and explain your health problems and ultimately taking a holistic view of your health and wellbeing by looking for the root cause of any ill health rather than just at individual symptoms.
What is kinesiology?
The term ‘Kinesiology’ means ‘the study of movement’ and was originally used to describe a form of conventional medicine regarding muscles and joints. Over the past 40 years, practitioners, most notably Dr George Goodheart, developed Kinesiology and it is now an effective natural healing therapy that combines muscle testing with the principles of Chinese medicine to assess health, energy, nutritional imbalances and the impact of emotions on health.
A basic principle of Kinesiology is that an energy imbalance in any part of the body affects the function of the body as a whole. Correcting the imbalance brings about a general improvement in total body function, which can manifest as improved physical and mental performance.
The muscle testing is simple, painless, gentle and you keep your clothes on! It is practiced worldwide by doctors, dentists, chiropractors, nutritional therapists, and other health professionals.
Do you specialise in any areas of health?
I have experience of working with a wide range of health conditions, but my particular areas of interest and speciality include female/male hormone balance, gastrointestinal issues, children’s health and supporting transgender clients.
How many appointments will I need?
The number of consultations required varies depending on the nature of your health concerns and your goals, but I always recommend to plan for a minimum of three sessions to really start to notice positive changes and re-set stubborn patterns. Packages are available.
