Difference Between Kinesiology and Reiki
If you’re exploring natural and holistic ways to boost your wellbeing, you might have come across Reiki and Kinesiology. Both are incredible alternative therapies that support balance and a healthy lifestyle. However, it can sometimes be confusing to differentiate between them. Let’s dive into how Kinesiology, in particular, can be a transformative addition to your self-care routine.
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese healing technique that focuses on restoring balance and promoting overall wellness. It works on the principle of a universal life force energy flowing through all living things. During a Reiki session, you typically lie down fully clothed while the practitioner gently places their hands on or above your body. The goal is to channel energy, clear blockages, and promote deep relaxation and healing.
What is Kinesiology?
Kinesiology is a holistic approach that combines muscle testing, bodywork, and energy healing to uncover and address imbalances in your body’s energy system. It’s based on the idea that muscles, emotions, and various body systems are interconnected. By assessing muscle responses, we can gain valuable insights into your overall health.
In a Kinesiology session with me, you’ll either lie comfortably while I perform gentle muscle testing (in-person) or we’ll work through energy-based techniques online. I then use methods like essential oils, crystals, acupressure, visualisation, and energy healing to restore balance.
Kinesiology can support you with:
Emotional overwhelm and anxiety
Stress management and mindset shifts
Physical tension or discomfort
Releasing limiting beliefs and old patterns
Overall wellbeing and energy balance
✨ Each session is tailored to you, helping you feel lighter, grounded, and more empowered in your everyday life.
