Benefit Of Kinesiology In Mental Health Wellbeing

Kinesiology has many different definitions. The study of movement is called kinesiology. This word comes from Greek and means’movement.’ Lovett was the first to develop a system of testing and grading muscle strength. Florence Kendall, Henry Kendall, and others then developed this into book form. George Goodheart created Kinesiology after he noticed that massaging the muscle of a client helped increase muscle strength. The new therapy he developed was called applied kinesiology, because he incorporated the applied knowledge gleaned from studying a patient’s muscles to resolve the patient’s problem. The CNS is tested using muscle response tests in Kinesiology. It is up to the client to decide what they need, but every method includes muscle testing to identify stressors. It can be used to help address psychological, biomedical and psychological mechanisms. The Kinesiology visualizes the muscles that are connected to various organs, and helps evaluate a patient’s health using manual muscle tests.

Kinesiology has the potential to help improve mental health. Acupuncture, for example, stimulates an individual’s internal energy. This can lead to a positive mood. The application of kinesiology to depression and anxiety can help the patient. A kinesiologist converses with them in order for them to understand their symptoms. It can be used to understand the root cause of the patient’s depression or anxiety.

The treatment of depression can also be achieved by changing the lifestyles of individuals who are suffering from depression. This is because many have bad habits such as drug abuse. These lifestyle changes have a positive impact on the patient, since they can reduce anxiety and depression. The nervous system and the body’s chemistry are also systemized by Applied Kinesiology, which helps to eliminate the stress from an individual. The body’s own chemistry is used to help heal the individual and reduce stress.
