Creative Kinesiology works with the whole person. All levels are addressed, body – mind – emotions – nutrition – energy systems – spirit – soul.

Creative Kinesiology developed in the 1980s as a way of building on from the fundamentals of Touch for Health and other developing kinesiology approaches. The Creative Kinesiology approach is one of working deeply with energy, helping people to overcome deep seated emotional, physical and energetic patterns which can manifest as aches and pains, frustration with life, lack of confidence, ftigue and a lack of fulfilment or purpose.

The practitioner and client work together to discover the triggers for healing that are most appropriate for the client, creating the conditions for the body to find its own way of healing.  As such, practitioners work with Creative Kinesiology as both a set of skills and as an art form, developing the sensitivity necessary to 'journey' alongside their clients. 

At the heart of this approach is the knowledge that we are made up of our stories - that our life experiences contribute to who we are today.  Not all of our past is helpful or supportive to life now, and by releasing unwanted or unhelpful results of our life experiences (whatever they are), the body, mind and energy systems can be more able to find a new zest for life and full potential.  Using gentle balancing techniques - guided by the innate wisdom of the client's energy system - the inner powers of healing and desire for health can be supported to help restore balance on all levels of the being.

Crystal healing is the use of crystals. The practitioner places crystals on different parts of the body, or places crystals around the body.

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.

Indian Head Massage aims to release stress and tension which can accumulate in the muscles and tissues of the scalp, face, neck, shoulders and upper back. 

Massage involves the kneading and stroking of the skin and muscle with various degrees of pressure.

Reflexology is based on the principle that all the organs and systems of the body are reflected in various areas of the feet and hands.  Reflexology is very relaxing and as stress is seen as a contributing factor to ill health this is beneficial to the whole person.

Reiki is a technique for healing, stress reduction and relaxation.  During the session the practitioner’s hands are placed in various positions on the client’s clothed body.

Nutritional Therapy is the use of nutrition and health science to help people maximise their health.  Nutritional therapists assess a client’s nutritional status and recognise that each person’s needs are unique dependent on a number of factors e.g. inheritance, environment, lifestyle.
