Kinesiology is the scientific study of human movement. It explores how the body’s muscles, joints, and nervous system work together to support health, performance, and overall wellbeing.
Through gentle muscle testing, I help identify imbalances that may be affecting your physical, emotional, or energetic state.

While physiotherapy and chiropractic care focus on injury rehabilitation or structural alignment, kinesiology takes a holistic approach — addressing muscle balance, posture, movement efficiency, and energy flow to help prevent problems before they arise.

Kinesiology can help with:
• Stress and anxiety
• Fatigue or low energy
• Muscle tension and pain
• Posture correction
• Sports performance
• Emotional balance
• General wellness and vitality

Kinesiology combines scientific principles with holistic methods. I use muscle testing to assess the body’s responses and guide the most effective techniques for restoring balance and improving wellbeing.

During a session, I use gentle muscle testing to locate imbalances within the body. Depending on what’s needed, I may use techniques such as energy balancing, nutritional guidance, or emotional stress release to help restore harmony.

Please wear comfortable clothing and stay well hydrated. It’s best to avoid heavy meals or caffeine just before your appointment.

Most kinesiology sessions last between 60 and 120 minutes, depending on your individual needs.

Lymphatic massage can cause some sensation, however this is always conducted with permission and within a person's tolerance. Sessions are gentle, respectful and many clients leave feeling calm, balanced, and centred.

This varies from person to person. Some people notice improvements after one or two sessions, while others benefit from a short series over several weeks.
