Functional Kinesiology FAQ
Kinesiology FAQ
Why would you see a Kinesiologist?
If you have an issue, condition, stress or injury you need help dealing with, a Kinesiologist can help you improve your wellbeing, health, mobility and flexibility. A Kinesiologists main objective is to help you live a more functional, stress free and pain free life.
What does a Kinesiologist do?
Kinesiology is a form of therapy that uses muscle monitoring (biofeedback) to look at imbalances that may be causing disease/ dis-ease and dysfunction/ dis-function in the mind and body. Kinesiology aims to identify and correct imbalances that may relate to stress, emotional triggers, mental clarity, food sensitivities, pain or physical restriction, hormone imbalances, relationships and so much more.
How often do I need to have a kinesiology balance?
Depending on your presenting complaint, we recommend that you attend 3 to 7 kinesiology sessions to really clear the stress underlying a particular goal, context, complaint or issue to see positive changes occurring. Short term issues may only take a few sessions whereas long term or complex issues may take a little longer.
What can a Kinesiologist do for you?
Kinesiologists study the factors that influence overall movement and function of the mind and body. Focussing on ways to improve function, wellbeing and how to help balance the mind and body so you can perform more effectively in daily life, at work, in sport and in all relationship structures.
Can Kinesiology help with stress, anxiety and depression?
Within a Kinesiology balance we have the tools and techniques to switch the brain from a survival stress state back to effective functioning, as we work with the nervous system and related cognitive functions bringing them back into balance. This has an immediate physiological and emotional impact resulting in people feeling centred and calm with clear rational thought.
