Kinesiology
Kinesiology, derived from the Greek words kinesis (movement)
and kinein (to move), also known as human kinetic, is the
science of human movement. It is a discipline that focuses on
physical activity. A kinesiological approach applies scientific
based medical principles towards the analysis,
preservation and
enhancement of human movement in all settings and populations.
It is not be confused with applied kinesiology.
Applied kinesiology (AK) here is a form of diagnosis using
muscle testing as a primary feedback mechanism to examine how a
person’s body is functioning.
When properly applied, the outcome of an AK diagnosis will
determine the best form of therapy for the patient. Since AK
draws together the core elements of many complementary
therapies, it provides an interdisciplinary approach and
biofeedback to health care.
In general, applied kinesiologist, Vincent Lee, finds a
muscle that tests weak and then attempts to determine why that
muscle is not functioning properly. The practitioner will then
evaluate and apply the therapy that will best eliminate the
muscle weakness and help the patient.
The therapies utilized with Applied Kinesiology in Natural
Wellness can include various myofascial therapies or
mobilization, various reflex procedures, food sensitivity testing, various
emotion testing. It can even help to determine chronic
issues like chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia or irritable
bowel syndrome
Applied kinesiology traditionally uses the - triad of health -
chemical, mental and structural factors - to describe the
proper balance of the major health
categories.
This triad is represented by an equilateral triangle with
structural health as its base, and the upright sides
representing chemical and mental health. When a person
experiences poor health, it is due to an imbalance in one or
more of these three factors.
The triad of health is interactive and all sides must be
evaluated for the underlying cause of a problem. A health
problem on one side of the triad can affect the other sides.
For example, a chemical imbalance may cause mental symptoms.
Applied kinesiology enables the practitioner to evaluate the
triad's balance and direct therapy toward the imbalanced side
or sides.
When you step over to Natural Wellness, you will not only be
tested with these categories, we will use to help you to
determine any stress in your organs and toxins in your
body.
