Kinesiology

April 6, 2005 12:00:46 PM from JoeUser ForumsJoeUser Forums
My chiropractor sister is probably more familiar with this concept than I am.
According to my DailyOM: Kinesiology taps into body wisdom to find imbalances and blockages of qi flow, even detecting disruptions in the chakras and aura.

OK, but also according to my DailyOM: A simple "self" kinesiology method involves asking your body questions by testing the muscle response in your fingers. For instance, you may want to know if you are suffering from allergies. Make a circle with two fingers. With your other hand, place one finger into the circle. Ask your body whether you are allergic to wheat, for instance, and then push your finger against the place where the circled fingers touch. If the answer is yes, it will be difficult for your finger to break through the circle. If the answer is no, then the circle will be easily broken.

Is this true? If I'm doing the test right, I should be allergic to wheat, but I've never avoided it, and I haven't blown up yet.

I have heard of the "self" diagnosis, but I believe it involved a sniff test.  You first try three or four times to get the feel of your fingers muscle reaction (you have to react the same for this to work).  After you get a feel for it, you smell the compound that you think you are allergic to.  However, I always thought it was a muscle weakness, not strength that told of the allergy.  So, in theory, the reaction would be that it was easier to separate the circle if you had an allergy.

I have never seen any reports that show that kinesiology tests showed the same as traditional tests on patients who were not previously diagnosed.  Obviously, if you know that you are allergic, you may subconsciously react to the tests to prove it true.  I would be interested in any data that proves that it works if you run across any.

Hello, Bruce is my name and I am from Queensland, Australia... and for several years I studied Kinesiology extensively and ran Classes/Trainings. There have been many thousands of people who, like myself, have worked with this modality and have come to know its many colors and facets.

The simply biofeedback mechanism of muscle response does indeed reveal the truth in a situation or condition.... as long as it is done correctly. Usually some training - even if its from a practicing kinesiologist - will assist one to do self-testing.

In using the self-test you described, it depends on how you ask the question and exactly what your intention is for that test. If you are Questioning... meaning a Yes or No response, then - as long as you are very clear on the Question and not being ambigious, a Yes will show a strong hold response, whilst a No will be a weak or not holding response.

Wheras, if you are looking for a direct response to a substance, a thing, an allergen, a toxin, a thought etc... then a strong or "switched on" response means that it does not effect your energy and therefore your physiology/metabolism.... wheras a "switched off" response means that it does.Therefore, in the case of testing wheat, dairy etc... as an example - if you have the substance/food in your mouth or hold it on your body... and it "switches off" your muscle response, then that would indicate a "sensitivity".

A Sensitivity is usually equated with an 'allergy', but the thing here is that a sensitivty can change under various environments, days, cycles or can be affected by your thoughts, emotions or something else you ate recently. Therfore, doing the Kinesiology often will show up your patterns of sensitivity, which can lead a person to better understand the complexity of allergies and general health.... and work toward Health building.

Kinesilogy can be a valuable tool to help us to be aware of the sensitivites that we may have to our foods, environment etc... and therefore modify those things over time toward feeding oursleves with what will support and switch on our energies... rather than be a victim to those things that switch us off or reduce our vitality.

I hope this helps...

Best of Health,
Bruce Gibson ND.
