This essential reference guide (ISBN: 978-1-909141-03-2) is a must-read for kinesiology practitioners and anyone seeking an in-depth understanding of how kinesiology works. Written by Charles T. Krebs, PhD, and Tania O’Neill McGowan, BSc, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the foundational principles and practical applications of Energetic Kinesiology.
The authors state in the preface:
“Energetic Kinesiology is currently an emerging field internationally in the complementary health sciences, gaining more and more scientific support and recognition. The field of Energetic Kinesiology is growing rapidly and increasingly being taught in professional colleges and schools worldwide; however, at present there is little published literature covering the principles and practices of this exciting field. Our goal in writing this book was to help fill this gap and bring greater coherence into both its theory and practice.”
10 Key Insights from Energetic Kinesiology: Principles and Practice:
1. The Basis of Energetic Kinesiology:
Energetic Kinesiology combines traditional kinesiology principles with complementary health sciences to address imbalances in the body’s energy systems.
2. Muscle Monitoring Explained:
The technique uses muscle testing to detect energy blockages and stress points, enabling targeted corrections to restore balance.
3. Meridian System Integration:
The book highlights how kinesiology works with the body’s meridian system, influenced by ancient Chinese medicine, to facilitate energy flow.
4. Stress and Energetic Imbalances:
Emotional, physical, and chemical stresses can disrupt the body’s energy systems, leading to symptoms that kinesiology aims to address.
5. Applications in Health and Wellness:
Energetic Kinesiology supports a range of concerns, from physical pain to emotional well-being and even enhancing cognitive function.
6. Science Meets Holism:
The book bridges the gap between scientific research and holistic practice, offering a balanced perspective on this emerging discipline.
7. Protocols and Techniques:
The authors provide detailed step-by-step protocols that practitioners can use in client sessions, making the text both theoretical and practical.
8. Energetic Relationships:
Insights into how different systems of the body interact energetically provide a deeper understanding of root causes of imbalances.
9. Global Growth of Kinesiology:
The rapid expansion of kinesiology education internationally reflects growing interest and recognition of its potential to complement traditional medical approaches.
10. Self-Empowerment for Clients:
Energetic Kinesiology not only helps correct imbalances but also empowers individuals to understand their body and take steps toward maintaining well-being.
Summary
This book serves as an invaluable resource for practitioners and students alike, offering both foundational knowledge and advanced insights into kinesiology’s principles and applications.
