<h3>At Wellness Alignments, every session begins with one question: what is the body actually responding to? Not just where the pain is but what's driving it.</h3>In my experience, every symptom has a source and that source can sit at one of five different levels. Understanding which level (or combination of levels) is driving your symptoms is what makes the difference between short-term relief and change that actually holds.But before we explore the five levels, here's a real example of what this looks like in practice.Client story Nine months without back pain after years of weekly massage A client came to me with chronic back pain. She'd been seeing a massage therapist weekly and getting temporary relief but the pain always came back within days.In our first session, the body-led assessment told a different story. The source of her back pain wasn't in her back at all. It was structural, originating from her jaw and compounded by emotional stress from long-running family difficulties that her body had been carrying as physical tension.Her massage therapist had been doing good work, just in the wrong place. Once we addressed the jaw and worked through the emotional load her body had been holding, the back pain resolved.She hasn't needed her weekly massage in over nine months.This is what I mean when I say the symptom is rarely the source. Now let's look at the five levels where that source can sit.<h3>The five levels behind every symptom</h3>1. StructuralAs you navigate the demands of daily life — long hours at a desk, old injuries, repetitive movement, years of carrying physical load, the way your body holds itself changes. It braces. It compensates. It builds patterns of tension around the things it hasn't been able to resolve.Structural patterns involve how the body distributes its weight and load, how it holds posture, and the compensation patterns that build up over years. The jaw is a particularly common structural holding point and it often braces in response to imbalances held elsewhere in the body, which is why jaw tension so frequently travels to the neck, shoulders, and head.When we identify and clear a structural priority, the compensations standing behind it, the areas that have been working overtime to hold the pattern together often ease naturally. The back pain client above is a good example: the structural source was in her jaw, not her back.<figure id="figure-9akx5nigsumqg4z3cm"><img id="9akx5nigsumqg4z3cm" src="https://rjdavx8ozyznxeyh.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/production/websites/infinite-images/512b490f-d14e-4455-85ff-e09ed4613446-QXRHnHl2yT9uOkaE55ds8bKqFldiRR.png" alt="Person demonstrating correct posture at ergonomic desk with monitor positioned at eye level, showing proper spinal alignment" title="Person demonstrating correct posture at ergonomic desk with monitor positioned at eye level, showing proper spinal alignment" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://rjdavx8ozyznxeyh.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/production/websites/infinite-images/512b490f-d14e-4455-85ff-e09ed4613446-QXRHnHl2yT9uOkaE55ds8bKqFldiRR.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure>2. BiochemicalThe body needs the right conditions to function and recover. Nutrition, hydration, and an environment that supports it rather than drains it. When those conditions aren't met, the body signals the gap through fatigue, persistent headaches, pain that won't resolve, and a general depletion that's hard to explain.This level is often overlooked in physical treatment but what the body is running on can directly affect how it holds tension, how well it recovers between sessions, and whether corrections made in treatment are able to hold. Sometimes the biochemical level is the first domino: address it, and the physical symptoms behind it have room to resolve.<figure id="figure-b9pda6s19kmqg4zfqr"><img id="b9pda6s19kmqg4zfqr" src="https://rjdavx8ozyznxeyh.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/production/websites/infinite-images/b0d08871-0ea0-44c3-954a-28273f48e898-w5KHfLe9izz1LqBDrDjgBT3kVSjmhy.png" alt="Close-up of premium supplement capsules, powders, and natural ingredients in clear glass containers with soft lighting" title="Close-up of premium supplement capsules, powders, and natural ingredients in clear glass containers with soft lighting" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://rjdavx8ozyznxeyh.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/production/websites/infinite-images/b0d08871-0ea0-44c3-954a-28273f48e898-w5KHfLe9izz1LqBDrDjgBT3kVSjmhy.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure>3. EmotionalEmotions that haven't fully processed don't simply disappear. They settle in the body as chronic tension, persistent pain, or a physical heaviness that doesn't shift no matter how much rest you get. This isn't a metaphor. The body holds what the mind hasn't been able to complete.Grief is one of the most common examples. Unresolved grief has a physical address in the body and it can drive physical symptoms that respond to nothing else until the emotional layer is addressed.Client story A frozen shoulder, resolved — after years of cortisone A client in her late seventies came to me after losing her husband. She had a frozen shoulder and had been receiving cortisone injections for some time, each one providing short-term relief before the pain and restriction returned.In session, the assessment revealed the source: unresolved grief, held in the body as physical tension in the shoulder. The cortisone had been addressing the biochemical level — but it wasn't the priority. The emotional load her body was carrying was.Once that grief was released, her shoulder movement returned fully.4. NeurologicalThe brain and body are constantly communicating and over time, the patterns of that communication become habits. Stress responses that were once appropriate become automatic. The body stays braced, guarded, and on alert long after the original stressor is gone because that's the pattern it's learned to run.These automatic patterns can drive physical symptoms that persist despite treatment, because the treatment isn't touching the pattern it's working on the result of it. When the neurological level is the priority, the work focuses on helping the brain and body learn a different default: one that isn't built around holding and guarding.Kinesiology works directly with the feedback loops between the brain and muscles to identify where these patterns are running and supports the system to find a steadier baseline.<figure id="figure-azsqkgrfgimqg50ium"><img id="azsqkgrfgimqg50ium" src="https://rjdavx8ozyznxeyh.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/production/websites/infinite-images/f9378038-2be2-4f08-a31a-80eaa14456c0-CX1w4euqw0oKnEoLZsyj43PeWQDet6.png" alt="Close-up of client's peaceful, relaxed facial expression showing therapeutic benefits and stress relief from Shiatsu treatment" title="Close-up of client's peaceful, relaxed facial expression showing therapeutic benefits and stress relief from Shiatsu treatment" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="null" data-positiony="null" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://rjdavx8ozyznxeyh.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/production/websites/infinite-images/f9378038-2be2-4f08-a31a-80eaa14456c0-CX1w4euqw0oKnEoLZsyj43PeWQDet6.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure>5. Deeper Energy PatternsSome patterns don't sit at the physical, biochemical, emotional, or neurological level. They're held deeper, in the energy field of the body, in long-standing beliefs about ourselves and the world, or in imprints that have been carried for a very long time.This is the layer that explains why some people do significant physical and emotional work and still feel like something is holding them back — a heaviness, a pattern, a pull toward the same experiences. When the body's assessment identifies this level as the priority, the work shifts accordingly: energy balancing, belief clearing, and deeper pattern work using Kinesiology, Craniosacral Therapy, and other aligned modalities.This work is available in session when the body indicates it's needed. If you arrive expecting purely physical work and the assessment takes us somewhere deeper, I'll always explain what we're working with and why. Nothing proceeds without your understanding and comfort.<h3>Why the sequence matters as much as the source</h3>This is why the same symptom in two different people can require completely different approaches. One person's jaw tension might be primarily structural driven by how the body has been holding itself. Another's might be primarily emotional, stress and unprocessed experience stored as physical tension in the jaw. A third might have a neurological pattern running that keeps the jaw braced regardless of what else is treated.Treating all three the same way focusing on the jaw directly gives temporary relief at best. Finding the priority for each individual, and clearing it in the right sequence, is what allows the pattern to resolve.Why the body-led assessment matters At Wellness Alignments, every session begins with an assessment that follows the body's own signals to identify the priority. The approach then shifts to match what's found.This is what makes the work different from treatment that focuses on the symptom directly. We're not guessing, and we're not following a fixed protocol. We're following your body's own feedback to find the right starting point and working from there.Hello, My name is Anunziata, call me Anunza<figure id="figure-ijzh57kyumqg52736"><img id="ijzh57kyumqg52736" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/36Y8EfCoJ8zpWKm7vqePUrhk3u7jUAbjCvzK9R6SimFnIcNoVjDPUA9IyJbvyboo.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/36Y8EfCoJ8zpWKm7vqePUrhk3u7jUAbjCvzK9R6SimFnIcNoVjDPUA9IyJbvyboo.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure>Ready to find your first domino?

Why pain keeps coming back and what most treatments miss

Living with Fibromyalgia can feel exhausting, overwhelming, and deeply frustrating. It is often more than just a single ailment; it is a complex "symptom cluster" where the brain and spinal cord begin to "turn up the volume" on pain signals.Many people experience this as widespread musculoskeletal pain—a constant, dull ache that affects both sides of the body—paired with a bone-deep fatigue that sleep doesn't seem to fix. You may also find yourself struggling with "fibro fog," where focusing and mental clarity feel just out of reach.At our clinic, we offer Kinergetics Kinesiology as a gentle, holistic support for those navigating these challenges. We understand that Fibromyalgia is often connected to:<ul><li>Long-term stress and burnout</li><li>Chronic fight-or-flight patterns</li><li>Nervous system overload</li><li>Secondary sensitivities, such as jaw tension (TMJ), digestive discomfort, and heightened sensitivity to light or sound. </li></ul>How Kinesiology Supports You Kinesiology works by helping to calm a nervous system that never seems to fully "switch off." Rather than only focusing on isolated symptoms, we look at the body as a whole. Using muscle monitoring, nervous system balancing, and emotional stress release techniques, sessions are tailored specifically to what your body needs most at the time.By addressing the underlying energetic and emotional stressors, we aim to help your body shift out of that high-alert state.Many clients report feeling:<ul><li>Calmer and less overwhelmed</li><li>Lighter in their body</li><li>Reduced tension and physical discomfort</li><li>Improved sleep quality</li><li>More energy and mental clarity </li></ul>A Complementary Path to Balance While Kinesiology is not a medical treatment or cure for Fibromyalgia, it can be a powerful complementary support alongside medical care and healthy lifestyle changesFor many, the biggest shift isn't just the reduction in "fibro fog" or tension—it is finally feeling like your body is being supported instead of constantly fighting against it.Find out how Kinergetics Kinesiology has helped other Fibromyaligia clients <a data-mce-href="https://kinergetics-reset.com/testimonials/fibromyalgia/" href="https://kinergetics-reset.com/testimonials/fibromyalgia/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here.</a>Ready to Feel More Supported?

Living With Fibromyalgia? How Kinesiology May Help You Feel Like Yourself Again

Happy beautiful girl pours pure water from the transparent bottle into the glass in the kitchen. Healthcare concept.

When it comes to improving your health, drinking enough filtered water is a simple change you can make that pays big dividends.More than 70% of the human body consists of water, and it plays a critical role in various bodily functions, including digestion, circulation, lubrication, temperature regulation, and waste removal. The kidneys, which are the blood's filtration system, can be affected by inadequate water intake, and will affect your general health. For example, the PSOA's is a muscle that has a relationship with the kidneys, which when weak, can contribute to a backache.Healthdirect has created this brilliant pictoral showing us the benefits of staying adequately hydrated.&nbsp;<figure id="figure-122dq030vglx4ei8h5"><img id="122dq030vglx4ei8h5" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/1fmot5AiPNnfZJqfRlBV4EWBizXZv2wZyNjdvFQ6ulqCXmqVM4FpSJNCPqJ2S0iP.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: 50% 35%;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="1:1" data-caption="" data-positionx="50%" data-positiony="35%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/1fmot5AiPNnfZJqfRlBV4EWBizXZv2wZyNjdvFQ6ulqCXmqVM4FpSJNCPqJ2S0iP.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: 50% 35%;"></figure><h3>Are you drinking enough water?</h3>The amount of water that we need to drink varies from person to person with many factors to consider such as what you eat, your age, the weather and if you are excercising. &nbsp;A general indicator that you are dehydrated is thirst. Also, consider the color of your urine. Light yellow usually indicates good hydration, while dark yellow suggests you need more water. Other indicators are headaches, dry skin and light headedness. &nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>Tips for Staying Hydrated</h3>Here are some tips to help you stay hydrated:* Carry a water bottle with you. * Eat water-rich foods like fruits and vegetables. * Drink a glass of water before and after exercise. <h3>Water Quality Matters</h3>The key is to not just drink more water, but to ensure it's high-quality, filtered water. This helps avoid the potential toxins and contaminants found in tap water, which can undermine the benefits of hydration.Whilst, Australia is lucky to have established standards for safe drinking water, various contaminants can still find their way into our water sources. These contaminants may include bacteria, viruses, protozoa, heavy metals, pesticides, and chemicals like fluoride (an industrial waste by-product). While some are relatively harmless, others can have short-term or long-term health consequences.&nbsp;Waters Co Australia says "if you don't filter your water, you become the filter." and I have to agree based on my experience with filters. When it's time to replace my filters, I can see how dirty they are with grime and dirt.&nbsp;<h3>3 budget friendly options for better H2O</h3>Fortunately, we can access cleaner water no matter what our budget is. I always recommend starting when you can, as each change we make is a steppingstone to better health.&nbsp;For those on a budget, a Water filter jug can be a cost-effective option. <a data-mce-href="Waterscoaustralia.com.au" href="Waterscoaustralia.com.au">Waterscoaustralia.com.au</a> offers various solutions starting from 1.5 litre filter Jugs starting from $99, which includes 1 filter which lasts 90 days.<figure id="figure-rrc5b7fjslx4ekoxh"><img id="rrc5b7fjslx4ekoxh" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/1fBSDr5i1dZ32iDI3ZbWv18T4t2lvjGqi753ENdFJe9d4M9N3vgnneQMynip9SHS.jpg" alt="Waters Co Filter Jug, filter system" title="Waters Co Filter Jug, filter system" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: undefined undefined;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="1:1" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/1fBSDr5i1dZ32iDI3ZbWv18T4t2lvjGqi753ENdFJe9d4M9N3vgnneQMynip9SHS.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: undefined undefined;"></figure>The website states that the filter offers 7 stages of filtration and re-mineralises and ionises ordinary tap water while filtering out up to 99% chlorine, fluoride, heavy metals, chemicals and bacteria. This is a great option for single households. (Note: Brita filters are very popular, However, upon reviewing Brita's website, there appears to be no detailed specifications provided about the actual level of filtration performance their products achieve.) &nbsp;Another option, for those who prefer plastic free is a benchtop ceramic pot with a fluoride removal cartridge. &nbsp;<a data-mce-href="http://www.villagepotterycompany.com.au" href="http://www.villagepotterycompany.com.au">Village Pottery Company</a> located in the mid-north coast of NSW they make 10 litre or 12 litre ceramic pots to order.

The Hydration Correction I use in my clinic can help identify and address Hydration imbalances at the cellular level.&nbsp;Beyond the cells, the Hydration Correction also looks at the energetic imbalances of key body systems involved in regulating hydration, like the kidneys, muscles, lymph glands, immune system, and organs. Imbalances in these systems can impact overall hydration.Hydration imbalances goes beyond just the physical body and can also occur on a metaphysical level, affecting the chakras, light bodies, and meridian system.&nbsp;By taking a multidimensional approach - addressing the physical, emotional, and even metaphysical factors - the Hydration Correction aims to support your body's natural ability to restore balance and optimal hydration.<h3>Conclusion</h3>Making water a priority in your daily routine is one of the easiest and most effective steps you can take for better health. It's a simple change that can lead to significant improvements in how you look, feel, and function.Note:The wellness services and content provided on this blog post are intended for personal wellbeing, self-improvement and informational purposes only.

When your body speaks, do you listen? or do you power through? Illness and pain are usually not random occurrences; they are messages urging you to slow down, turn inward, and make important changes.&nbsp;If you're feeling stressed, overwhelmed, dealing with physical ailments, or experiencing exhaustion and depression, it's your body's way of communicating with you and it's time to give it the care and attention it is asking for.&nbsp;Most illness and pain, also carry an emotional component and its often left as the last piece of the puzzle that is left as the last piece of the puzzle to be discovered, if ever.&nbsp;Understanding that addressing the emotional aspect is key to unlocking complete healing.&nbsp;These 2 books are a great introduction into understanding the relationship our emotions have with our bodies.&nbsp;<a data-mce-href="https://www.amazon.com.au/Secret-Language-Your-Body-Essential/dp/1582702608/ref=sr_1_2?crid=17C1TKMAUHZK&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.S5ukeaKO2Rp3CCnFPZpW8AXIWns27QgHKtBGkbNP69byd3o_r6cCVV766TwOpzUhaPuDsQ5rGbYKkPiQvz6f6ZAIj1ZP8tJC_b56svJ3PuGGWZ1UDqJMbOeW5hhbN63ko-OblrN3lP6yfd71pL6k17oK2aNuDwlMtuSsRQV2oNCb4koQHheNa56ohYYhR0FkB1pSXECOY1VrOPxrRQm-DuH-GxIktRwz_c3nfZDclxXK4KX2ugMWCdrSJtkqli0mLyOQct_L_LOFuRmFBMPHZ2rnbM-XfD2htv6Vwbo4CKY.MWtScYJRB9ZWU9S7-AIZAkbU56BTiGIk-OjnXfku76U&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;keywords=inna+segal&amp;qid=1708370779&amp;sprefix=linen+shirt+dres%2Caps%2C292&amp;sr=8-2" href="https://www.amazon.com.au/Secret-Language-Your-Body-Essential/dp/1582702608/ref=sr_1_2?crid=17C1TKMAUHZK&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.S5ukeaKO2Rp3CCnFPZpW8AXIWns27QgHKtBGkbNP69byd3o_r6cCVV766TwOpzUhaPuDsQ5rGbYKkPiQvz6f6ZAIj1ZP8tJC_b56svJ3PuGGWZ1UDqJMbOeW5hhbN63ko-OblrN3lP6yfd71pL6k17oK2aNuDwlMtuSsRQV2oNCb4koQHheNa56ohYYhR0FkB1pSXECOY1VrOPxrRQm-DuH-GxIktRwz_c3nfZDclxXK4KX2ugMWCdrSJtkqli0mLyOQct_L_LOFuRmFBMPHZ2rnbM-XfD2htv6Vwbo4CKY.MWtScYJRB9ZWU9S7-AIZAkbU56BTiGIk-OjnXfku76U&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;keywords=inna+segal&amp;qid=1708370779&amp;sprefix=linen+shirt+dres%2Caps%2C292&amp;sr=8-2">1.

Whether it's a persistent headache, a knot in the stomach, or tightness in the chest, these physical symptoms can often be indicators of deeper emotional issues that need to be addressed.This is a great beginner's book that also offers ways to process the emotions.<figure id="figure-10tv5b66blsus6yi8"><img id="10tv5b66blsus6yi8" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/1858FMoeJfwWe3JyNiClMimEgJJrke5n6XrkARBPji3CqU4ZkWUaY8aC0UaBKJyG.png" alt="The secret language of your body" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: 35% 60%;" data-corners="small" data-aspect="1:1" data-caption="" data-positionx="35%" data-positiony="60%" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/1858FMoeJfwWe3JyNiClMimEgJJrke5n6XrkARBPji3CqU4ZkWUaY8aC0UaBKJyG.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: 35% 60%;"></figure><a data-mce-href="https://www.amazon.com.au/Body-Keeps-Score-Transformation-Trauma/dp/0141978619/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3TOM9UKQ1KU38&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.MSNH38Aoj5K1Wk0Bk20eBC_hIIoK7PVjIIb8l11IPPSz-cLQwbsYSQ0Z1OOduw3surnc7W-xZCWob8-HEsuuzZHuuK6q4IhxutOQBVGovQE44ITYbuk-V6JBboAtF_rx5F-c5e3ATGpy3vCeAysWlA_i1XK-R8xWhIlhYi__F8S9vvN-ODWM7dvTrBR5sGr-FCstN3a3AEqzVOQEuUrOVcR_S145S6A0OKvKoGBJShLbOvraKqUXXJ6KgF6ebFDOH_rCzwVbSIbJll4C9MhDc9mXKJqh_xyaZxV9plUrgpE.zst_Hq5R37G-NdrQ3nMewidgkTGAG4ZAyGsyODaU4Ew&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;keywords=the+body+keeps+the+score+by+bessel+van+der+kolk&amp;qid=1708370975&amp;sprefix=the+body+ke%2Caps%2C342&amp;sr=8-1" href="https://www.amazon.com.au/Body-Keeps-Score-Transformation-Trauma/dp/0141978619/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3TOM9UKQ1KU38&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.MSNH38Aoj5K1Wk0Bk20eBC_hIIoK7PVjIIb8l11IPPSz-cLQwbsYSQ0Z1OOduw3surnc7W-xZCWob8-HEsuuzZHuuK6q4IhxutOQBVGovQE44ITYbuk-V6JBboAtF_rx5F-c5e3ATGpy3vCeAysWlA_i1XK-R8xWhIlhYi__F8S9vvN-ODWM7dvTrBR5sGr-FCstN3a3AEqzVOQEuUrOVcR_S145S6A0OKvKoGBJShLbOvraKqUXXJ6KgF6ebFDOH_rCzwVbSIbJll4C9MhDc9mXKJqh_xyaZxV9plUrgpE.zst_Hq5R37G-NdrQ3nMewidgkTGAG4ZAyGsyODaU4Ew&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;keywords=the+body+keeps+the+score+by+bessel+van+der+kolk&amp;qid=1708370975&amp;sprefix=the+body+ke%2Caps%2C342&amp;sr=8-1">2. The Body Keeps the Score - Bessel Van Der Kolk</a>Bessel Van Der Kolk, a leading expert in trauma and the author of "The Body Keeps the Score," emphasizes the importance of mindfulness and body-centered therapies in healing emotional wounds. He believes that trauma is stored in the body and that traditional talk therapy may not always be sufficient to address these deep-seated issues.Van Der Kolk advocates for practices such as yoga, meditation, and bodywork to help individuals reconnect with their bodies and release stored trauma. By becoming more attuned to the sensations in our bodies, we can begin to process and release the emotional pain that may be trapped within us.<figure id="figure-j5f0p22cnklsusj3cv"><img id="j5f0p22cnklsusj3cv" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/30TF4vN3ukXa4znEvAHNx4p7IlxhAbLekszclqwwN56JrBw81pFELZNf0FCV4Ju4.png" alt="The body keeps the score" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: undefined undefined;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="1:1" data-caption="" data-positionx="undefined" data-positiony="undefined" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/30TF4vN3ukXa4znEvAHNx4p7IlxhAbLekszclqwwN56JrBw81pFELZNf0FCV4Ju4.png" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 1/1; object-position: undefined undefined;"></figure>Both books essentially share, that emotions, when left unprocessed, can imbed themselves within our bodies, surfacing days, months or even years later as pain and illness. Emotions are energy in motion, and until we address them, they can create imbalances that affect our physical well-being.&nbsp;Kinesiology, also offers the unique approach to healing by allowing us to "talk" to the body helping us to identify the emotional root causes of our challenges, locate where they are held within our bodies and what the body needs to clear the energy imbalances.Our bodies hold so much wisdom. It's up to us to listen with open hearts and receptive minds. So, the next time your body speaks, don't just power through or ignore its cries. Pause, reflect and honour your body and the wisdom it holds.&nbsp;
