Classical Kinesiology is based on Goodheart’s original concepts of kinesiology (Applied Kinesiology).  It appeals to people who prefer a more orthodox approach to therapy.  Even though this system uses the principles of George Goodheart's original kinesiology research, classical kinesiology is eclectic in nature and offers a naturopathic approach to the therapy.

Therapists identify imbalances within the energy system with the aid of finger modes and biomarkers in the form of test vials. Treatment can consist of acupuncture meridian work, gentle bone structure and muscle corrections, emotional stress diffusion techniques, nutrition, herbs and flower essences.

The Learning Enhancement Acupressure Program, or LEAP®, has been developed in conjunction with clinical psychologists, speech pathologists, neurologists and other health professionals.

LEAP®, is based on a new model of learning integrating the most recent concepts in neurophysiology of the brain and uses highly specific kinesiological formatting to address stress.

Neuro Energetic Kinesiology was developed primarily by Hugo Tobar.  It offers powerful techniques for accessing and defusing stress in the nervous system.  To access the stress a technique called ‘formatting’ (a combination of acu-points and finger modes) is used.  Hugo’s work is extremely detailed and far-reaching.  It looks at energetic structures and looks at different chakra imbalances and what different psychological states come from those imbalances.

An Australian psychiatrist and Applied Kinesiologist, John Diamond, M.D., then took this discovery a step further.  He began using verbal affirmations as the patient was stimulating the acupuncture points. This was a major step forward as it introduced a psychological tool into the process.  But still the treatment method lacked a cohesive "engine" to drive it forward with real effectiveness. That engine was supplied by Dr. Roger Callahan, an American psychologist and Applied Kinesiologist specializing in anxiety disorders.

Dr. Callahan's contribution was immense and has been well documented. Through his interest in acupuncture and his awareness of the use of the value of tapping on acupoints, he made a key discovery upon which all later meridian tapping methods are based. Callahan found that if a person is focusing on a specific fear at the time they tap, that fear can be removed, often permanently. He developed his discovery into a complete system and concluded that there was a correct tapping sequence for every emotional issue, and that this could be determined for each individual through the use of muscle testing. He called these tapping sequences "algorithms" and his treatment later became known as Thought Field Therapy, or TFT.

The next step was the creation of simplified versions of Callahan's technique. These were known as "single algorithm techniques" (i.e. they did not require diagnosis or muscle testing). Then, in the 1990's, one of Roger Callahan's pupils, Gary Craig, unveiled a major development of the meridian tapping techniques which he called Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT).

The Healing Trust defines Spiritual Healing as a natural energy therapy. Spiritual Healers act as a conduit for healing energy, which relaxes the body and releases tension.

Hypnotherapy uses hypnosis to induce a deep sense of relaxation.
