The Touch for Health branch of kinesiology is recognised, used and taught worldwide.
Both professionals and laypeople use it as a safe, effective way to enhance wellbeing, aliviate stress, achieve goals and improve performance.
It is an excellent course to learn how to muscle test as well as learning in depth lots of simple techniques to improve your wellbeing and achieve your goals. Kinesiologists use muscle testing or monitoring to find the meridian energy imbalance and correct it. The muscles are seen as a biofeedback mechanism where the body/mind interaction takes place.
History
In the early 1960’s George Goodheart, an American Chiropractor began using muscle-testing techniques to evaluate performance, posture and general structural imbalances. His continued research led him to use skills from ancient Chinese acupuncture, naturopathy, osteopathy, and chiropractic to find corrective treatments.
John Thie D.C., also a chiropractor, who trained with George Goodheart, sought to share this information with the wider population, to enable laypeople to help themselves. This simplified self-help method he called “Touch for Health”.
