Kinesiology is a holistic natural health therapy that helps to identify imbalances in the body’s energy systems that can result in physical, mental, and emotional health issues. Its approach uses muscle testing to identify the root cause of the problem, allowing practitioners to create a personalized treatment plan that is specific to the individual.
One such benefit of kinesiology is its ability to improve hormonal balance. Hormones play a crucial role in regulating various bodily functions, from metabolism to growth and development, and an imbalance in hormone levels can lead to a wide range of health problems, including weight gain, mood swings, fatigue, insomnia, and more.
Here are four ways in which kinesiology can help improve hormonal balance:
-
Bring Awareness to Hormonal Imbalances
Muscle testing can bring awareness to potential hormonal imbalances through the testing of particular muscle’s, and the findings of certain kinesiology techniques. These are not a diagnosis, but rather an assessment of imbalance in the energy systems related to the glands and hormone’s.
-
Addresses Nutritional Deficiencies
Nutritional deficiencies can impact hormone production, which can then lead to hormonal imbalances. Kinesiology techniques can bring awareness to potential nutritional deficiencies that may be contributing to hormonal imbalances. The muscle testing allowing practitioners to bring to the clients awareness certain foods that would be of benefit to the individual’s needs.
-
Reduces Toxin Exposure
Toxins can affect hormone levels, particularly the endocrine system that regulates hormones. As a kinesiologist who has taken the ECO units of the Diploma, I am able to identify toxins that may be affecting the body. This also allows me to suggest ways for a client to reduce exposure, such as dietary changes, supplements, or lifestyle changes. It also gives me access to a number of techniques that support detoxification.
-
Helps Manage Stress
Stress can cause hormonal imbalances, particularly the stress hormone cortisol. Kinesiology can identify the source of stress and suggest ways to manage it, such as meditation, relaxation techniques, or exercise routines that promote stress reduction.
