Healing and recovery are not linear. Your healing journey is a spiral that leads back to the centre of yourself.

How can Kinesiology improve my health?

Kinesiology is a complementary therapy that uses muscle-testing and the meridian theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine to uncover the layers of information your body holds about your mental, physical, (bio)chemical and energetic (MCPE) health. Muscle-testing as a way of checking the health and function of your organs (such as the kidneys, liver, gallbladder, stomach, etc.) gives us a deep and reliable method to find out the reasons for your illness, Once we have the information we need to work through the layers of your illness to the root cause, we can treat your symptoms and get you back to feeling like your old self.

Kinesiology helps to heal issues with hormonal imbalance, digestive issues, allergies, physical illnesses, emotional trauma and mental illness, and structural issues with joints, muscles, bones, ligaments, and tendons. Our bodies experience many imbalances, illnesses, injuries and symptoms throughout our lifetime. Kinesiology provides support with everything you could possibly experience at the mental, physical and emotional level.

How does Kinesiology work?

In Kinesiology, we use a sequence of techniques including lymphatic massage, acupressure, meridian line tracing, emotional release techniques and Reiki energy healing to correct and rebalance your whole system and support your body’s return to optimal health. If your body needs extra nutrition for recovery, we find the right herbal support/plant medicine, uniquely tailored to what your body needs.

Kinesiology works on four aspects of our experience of being alive in a human body:

  • the Mental or Mind aspect, linked to stress, fear, cognitive dysfunction and brain fog, mental overwhelm.

  • the (bio)Chemical aspect (think enzymes, neurotransmitters, hormones, stomach acid, synovial fluid in your joints, etc.).

  • the Physical aspect of muscles, bones, joints and soft tissue, from the outermost layer of the skin to the innermost layer of the tissues and cells that make up the blood vessel walls and the intestinal walls.

  • the Energetic aspect: is your energetic Life Force free-flowing and abundant, or is it blocked and stagnant, causing you to feel heavy, sluggish and exhausted?

What does ‘Imbas’ mean?

‘Imbas’ in Old Irish means Inspiration, Insight or Great Wisdom from an Unseen Source. When Imbas flows to us, we can see beyond what is obvious. In a complementary healing context, Imbas is the gift of Second Sight.

‘Imbas’ in the Malaysian language means to systematically scan or check for information and patterns, which is exactly what we do in kinesiology. Systematic muscle testing gives specific information about your symptoms and how to resolve them.

Combined, the Old Irish and Malay roots o f the word ‘Imbas’ capture my approach to holistic healing. I intuitively ‘read’ your body by channelling Japanese Reiki, but I systematically use muscle-testing to check that the information your body tells us about what you need is accurate. Your body has an innate ability to heal itself once given the opportunity to provide information about what is causing your symptoms. I enable your body to tell you what it needs to recover, using muscle testing, tissue reading, nutritional testing, and energy healing.

How can I find the right Kinesiologist for my health needs?

My original background is in cancer care nursing, with 25 years of study of yoga, spiritual philosophy and pranayama (breathwork) along the way. My whole adult life has been a long journey of deep learning and healing. Now, I bring 30 years of medical background together with naturopathic science, herbalism, nutrition, Reiki energy healing, and Systematic Kinesiology.

My personal experience is that finding the right holistic therapist depends on a feeling that you are being listened to very carefully. The trauma expert Peter Levine always says that in order to heal, the body needs a witness. My whole approach is based around listening to what you and your body want to communicate during your session. Sometimes this means just sitting in a supportive way with tight, knotted tissue until it releases. The ways that I listen to your body take many different forms throughout a typical treatment. Am I the right person to support you in your healing journey? You can read more about me here in my bio and decide if my experience and approach resonate with you.

Testimonials

  • I was introduced to Kinesiology by Nicole, knowing very little about it but keen to explore new therapies to address my lifetime morning anxiety and the effect of a chronic illness. She offers a very warm, caring and safe environment, making her patients feel comfortable even at their most vulnerable. Her treatments are personalised, focusing on immediate and long-term needs and physical and emotional rebalancing. Her knowledge of anatomy and nutrition is extensive, allowing her to provide some practical tips on how to improve energy and stress levels. She has a strong intuition and her passion for healing others is outstanding.

  • Nicole is an exceptional practitioner. I have reaped the benefits of her expertise for months and would recommend her highly. Nicole is an intuitive and very knowledgeable therapist, and I have enjoyed both Kinesiology and Reiki under her expert hand. My brain fog cleared after the first session and my immune system feels stronger than it has in years. My thyroid function has improved according to blood tests, and a surprise outcome of my treatments is that I no longer crave sugar. Nicole was kind, patient and supportive during sessions and never failed to give sound advice as to which supplements and herbs would benefit my body. Recommend highly.
    ~LP, Newcastle-upon-Tyne

  • I live with ME/CFS and chronic migraine, which means a lifetime of dealing with chronic pain and debilitation. In the past, I have never found a complementary therapy that helped in a sustainable way. I’ve become an anxious and dare I say cynical client in regard to alternative therapy over the years and began to think I just wasn’t receptive enough for treatment. I had never tried Kinesiology and having been offered no medical treatment options for many years, I have felt a sense of just being left to get on with it by the medical profession.

    My consultation with Nicole was very different to anything I’ve ever had. She is medically trained and her knowledge of ME/CFS is incredibly up to date. Nicole is a specialist in this field, and knowing the limited medical treatments available, she didn’t promise the earth. She advised a measured and paced approach, allowing my body to dictate what it could handle from the treatment so I wouldn’t feel initially worse while already barely coping with daily pain. This has always been something that makes me feel nervous in receiving any treatments. With Nicole I was sent home with a detailed herbal care package and a realistic plan dictated to her by her my own body, combined with her findings from the treatment and her extensive knowledge of my conditions.

    in my opinion Nicole’s biggest gift as a healer is her ability to listen … to both what I said in consultation and what my body told her. I realise In retrospect not many people can truly do this. She is kind, she has integrity and a genuine desire to help you achieve a better quality of life. Combined with a wealth of knowledge of what is happening on the forefront of my diseases, I have genuinely never felt in a safer or more competent pair of hands.

  • I’d spent hundreds of pounds on chiropractors for knee and back trouble, and started to feel they were just going through the motions with a ‘one patch fits all’ approach; treating injuries in isolateion brought temporary relief at best.

    Then a friend recommended Nicole, and the contrast was startling … immediately Nicole made me feel like an individual; her understanding of my problems seemed intuitive, and her holistic approach was eye-opening. With a series of relaxed tests over a few sessions she built up a blue-print of areas of strength and weakness, and it made complete sense to view my knee and back pain in the context of the rest of my body.

    Nicole is brilliant at explaining everything she is doing, and I can’t recommend her enough. I have now had three weeks of feeling completely pain free and ‘normal’ again.

  • Hands-on healing was a new concept to me before working with Nicole. I didn’t understand how energy lines I’ve had all my life - but been oblivious to – could impact my wellness. The process of working through these energy lines is gentle, friendly and non-intrusive but if you let yourself lean into working with Nicole, which I did, it can also be revelatory. During my first session I started seeing bright light, despite my eyes being closed, and the light changed colour and intensity as she moved over my energy lines. For years I’d had a terrible pain under my ribs which started after I had a dream that I had been stabbed and killed. I appreciate that sounds dramatic and I didn’t mention this obviously, yet when Nicole went over this rib area the light I was watching turned black and started swirling in quite a frightening way. As Nicole worked the energy, bit by bit the blackness broke up and eventually I was left with a beautiful glowing yellow light and I’ve not had any pain there since. So take a deep breath and trust Nicole and the process. It is astonishing.
