What Are Your Muscles Telling You?

What Are Your Muscles Telling You?

Kinesiology is used to understand the language of the body. This practice, for this very reason, is client lead. We test muscles to learn what organs/muscles are working or what organs/muscles need help. I call our 15-muscle balance, based on the muscles that are linked to the primary organs, an “NCT Test for Humans”. At the end of a session, all muscles, hypertonic or weak, are corrected into a normal working state.

The Different Types of Muscles             

There are three states that our muscles can be found in: normal, weakened and hypertonic. Normal muscles are muscles that function the way they should, turning on and off when asked by the brain. Weakened muscles are muscles that are weak or tired, while hypertonic muscles are muscles that are super-strong, because they have been over-worked in some way and are no longer doing what the brain asks of them. Weakened and hypertonic muscles can occur due to stress, be it emotional, physical or food intolerance related.

When muscles are weak or hypertonic, it can result in symptoms such as feeling unwell, aches and pains, constipation, diarrhoea, headaches, a bloated feeling, back pain and many more. All of these are symptoms I come across every day in my clinic. The question is, “Why?” Why are we in so much trouble?

How Emotions Can Affect Our Organs

Through my experience as a Systematic Kinesiologist, I have seen how our emotions can affect our bodies. The different emotions are held in the cell memory. For example, we all know the emotion anger is held in the liver. But did you know that grief is held in the bowel and lungs, possibly due to a loss of a loved one, people giving you grief or because you are giving yourself grief? The emotion of fear is held in the kidneys and bladder. How many of us have had an infection in the kidney or bladder after a big shock? Think back. The effect of shock throughout our bodies makes us go weak at the knees. The stomach is where we hold our worry and feelings of anxiousness. This in turn can cause many neck issues. These are just some examples of how emotion can wreak havoc on our bodies.

Food Intolerances

“The effect of diet is of vital importance. Food can either be a creative and supportive force, or very destructive. We either ingest needed vital nutrients, which are absorbed by the body and increase our vitality, or we can slowly but surely poison ourselves.” – Brian Butler.

Physical Problems

Emotion and food intolerances can manifest themselves as physical problems. Therefore, if you release the stress of the emotions and any food intolerances, the physical body can be restored to a balanced state. In my experience, people who have joint pain, especially low back and hip pain, are often wheat intolerant. If a person is intolerant to wheat, it can cause inflammation. People with sinus problems or lung congestion are often lactose/dairy intolerant.
