Do you need to make a change, fast? A change that lasts more than a few hours? Need to get rid of pain from your body or release the stress and tension from sore, tight muscles? Before you choose a standard style massage, which only eases tightness from muscles, consider what causes that tightness in the first place. It is because there are some muscles that have a weakness of some kind and the sore, tight muscles are taking up the slack. Why just ease the tension from these muscles when you could discover the reason for the weakness and fix it. That way, the sore muscles immediately relax and the tension doesn't come back because you've identified and fixed the cause. If you only rub the tension away, without correcting the weakness, those muscles are just going to get sore again and you'll never get to the bottom of it.

Choose a therapist that can quickly show you where the weakness lies in your body and what is required to fix it. Your body has all these answers and you need a therapist that can communicate with the body and be the interpreter of the body's language.

Kinesiology is the process of communicating with the body to identify stress, activate energy production to improve body function and performance. When combined with massage, it becomes an incredible way to highlight the specific areas for treatment - which are often, not at the site of pain. The body has an incredible way of compensating and attempting to self-correct, to keep you going. Hence, some muscles end up doing more than their fair share of the work load - causing fatigue and tension. By pinpointing the areas of weakness, then communicating with the body to find what it needs to strengthen those areas, the muscles begin to off-load their work to the correct muscles again, instantly easing their tension. The corrections that can be applied to strengthen these weaknesses are numerous. They could be of a structural nature like: bowen, chiropractic, nerve reset or cranial work. They could be of a nutritional nature like: adding or deleting foods/supplements/herbs, water and hydration, detox and cleansing. They could be of an electrical nature: magnetic polarity, meridian and acupuncture point stimulation, centring of the energy system. Muscles can also be corrected using stress relief techniques to clear emotional issues from the cellular memory of the body. Stresses that cause an emotional response are closely linked with muscle function. Often just talking about it doesn't actually clear emotional stress. Specific techniques need to be applied to actually release the emotion and associated chemical response, before complete healing will be achieved.

So don't just go have a massage if you really want to change your body's response and function. Find a therapist that incorporates kinesiology into their treatments so that you get maximum bang for your buck.
