What is Touch for Health?

“Touch for health is the foundation of Kinesiology.”

Touch for Health is the most widely recognised basic Kinesiology workshop and is a highly recommended starting point as a way to manage health and gain high energy for self, family and friends.

Touch for Health falls under the branch of alternative and complementary therapy known as Kinesiology – systems of healing that use manual muscle bio-feedback to determine which stimuli stress the body and how that stress can be decreased.

The Touch for Health model does not treat or diagnose symptoms, but works with the energy, lifestyle and aspirations of the client, offering a safe and effective way to maintain health, enhance well-being and upgrade performance.

Touch for Health is the most widely used system of Kinesiology in the world.

It is recognised and respected as a fundamental training for other Kinesiology systems as well as a healing modality in it’s own right.

Level 2

Builds on skills and introduces the application of the Chinese Law of 5 Elements to energy balancing, over and under energy; food testing with sensitivity mode; the principles of yin and yang applied to meridians and organs… and more!

Level 3
