kids on screens and devices - Reconnected Self Kinesiology for kids

In today’s world it is so easy for our nervous system to be overstimulated - particularly for little children.

Noise, changes (such as arrival of a new sibling, new school, new house, separation etc), busy malls, ipads/phones, blood sugar highs and lows, too much activity packed in a day.... There is little to no “downtime”.

Reconnected Self - Kinesiology for kids, Adelaide

All these can cause our kids to be in a state of fight/flight (same as adults) which then directly dulls down the part of our nervous system responsible for rest, digest, detox & heal functions.

This state can result in decreased digestion (poor nutrient assimilation, issue with constipation, re-flux, lack of HCl production), sleep issues, behavioural & mood disruption, lack of emotional processing, disruption to immune system or lack of primitive reflex integration.

How can Holistic Kinesiology help my child ?

Holistic Kinesiology offers a gentle, effective approach to understanding and improving your child's well-being by addressing nervous system regulation and emotional management.

Kinesiology is a gentle, safe, non-invasive and effective therapy that uses muscle monitoring and principles from Traditional Chinese Medicine to identify the root cause of imbalances and clear them.

As an experienced kinesiologist, I work with children of all ages to address the underpinning problem/s not just the symptoms whether it is from a nutritional, emotional, environmental or physical origin.

For younger kids, parents attend the sessions which can often help provide insight into the problems.

What to Expect in the First Session:

The initial session focuses on building trust and creating a safe space for both parents and children to discuss home and school issues. We assess various aspects, including primitive and postural reflexes, brain integration exercises (like marching and balancing), and nutritional and emotional factors affecting brain function.

Why Kinesiology is Effective for Children

Children are often not able to express themselves as comprehensively as adults. Kinesiology muscle testing gives them a voice and the ability to release emotional stress. It is also used to assess nutritional imbalances and food allergies/ intolerances.

I can receive insights about past events or ancestral issues that might influence current patterns.

To use muscle testing accurately it is recommended your child be aged 7 yo and up. For younger children the session is conducted using the parent as surrogate.

Acupressure is extremely useful for working on brain function and clearing underlying stresses because it can be used to address problems in all three aspects – mind, brain and spirit. Integrative brain acupoints are essential for supporting overall brain function and enhancing brain integration. By combining acupressure with bodywork techniques, we can gently stimulate these points to soothe your child's nervous system and promote balance.

I will teach you some of these to take home with you to use with your children

How to prepare your child for a kinesiology session

It is very normal for your child to feel nervous or worried before coming (they may even refuse to come at all). This could be the exact reason of their session - anxiety, fear of new places. Here are a few little tips to help them with this.

Be honest and transparent - explain in details where there are going and what is going to happen. You will stay with them the whole time. We are going to have a little chat together. There will be toys for them to play with and a collection of crystals to look at (kids usually love them). I may give them a little massage if they are up for it and we might do some fun exercises. They are going to feel relaxed.

You can show them a photo of me on the website so it may seem more familiar.

Emphasize it is not about fixing them but to help them feel better and happier

You can explain I see a lot of kids just like them.

Let them know they will be completely safe and they have a say about everything I do. Encourage them to give it a go.

Feel free to reach out for any other questions they may have.
