Touch for health combines Traditional Chinese medicine with the modern Western approach. We test designated muscles to indicate if there is a blockage or constriction of energy flow to a meridian. Meridians are located throughout the body. They contain a free-flowing colorless, noncellular liquid, which may be partly actuated by the heart. Meridians are named by the life function of the gross organ, which they seem to associate. However, we cannot say that a weak muscle means a weak or damaged organ we can only note blockage of energy.

When an environmental factor or food stresses the body chemistry, specific muscles will weaken. Structural and emotional stressors will have the same effect. With this application of kinesiology, we restore the energy flow with the reflexes of different systems. These reflexes act like electrical switches in turning on or off the energies to the muscle. This modality not only discovers where person’s energy is blocked, but also empowers him/her by explaining how they can help themselves to ensure their health. Its emphasis will always be education in self – awareness and responsibility.

Touch for Health is administered fully clothed sitting, standing, or lying down. Muscle testing is a cooperative venture and requires active participation. A session may last from an hour to an hour and a half.
