Why Do I Feel Tired After Kinesiology?

Have you ever left a kinesiology session feeling more exhausted than when you arrived? It’s a common phenomenon that many people experience, yet few understand why it happens. In this blog post, we’ll delve into the reasons behind why you might feel tired after kinesiology and what you can do to combat this fatigue.

Kinesiology at CARESPACE aims to promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being by using muscle monitoring techniques to identify imbalances in the body. During a session, your practitioner may use gentle movements or touch to help rebalance these energies. While the goal of kinesiology is to leave you feeling revitalized and balanced, it’s not uncommon to feel fatigued afterward. One reason for this is that kinesiology can release stored emotions and tension in the body, which can be physically draining. Additionally, the body may be expending energy to restore balance after the session, leading to feelings of tiredness.

Another factor that may contribute to feeling tired after kinesiology is dehydration. During a session, your body may release toxins as it rebalances its energy systems. To help flush these toxins out of your system, it’s important to drink plenty of water before and after your session. Dehydration can lead to fatigue and other negative side effects, so staying hydrated is key to feeling energized post-kinesiology.

In some cases, feeling tired after kinesiology could be a sign that your body is undergoing a detoxification process. As your body releases toxins and restores balance during a session, it’s normal for some individuals to experience symptoms of detox such as fatigue or headaches. These symptoms are temporary and should subside as your body adjusts to the changes brought about by kinesiology. To support your body through this detox process, make sure to get plenty of rest and nourish yourself with healthy foods.

It’s also important to consider the emotional aspect of feeling tired after kinesiology. As mentioned earlier, kinesiology can release stored emotions and tension in the body, which can be mentally draining as well as physically exhausting. It’s perfectly normal to feel emotionally drained after a session as you process these released emotions. Give yourself permission to rest and take care of yourself during this time of integration.

Feeling tired after kinesiology is a common occurrence that can have various underlying causes. Whether it’s due to releasing stored emotions, dehydration, detoxification processes, or emotional exhaustion, there are steps you can take to combat this fatigue. By staying hydrated, supporting your body through detox processes, and allowing yourself time for rest and self-care, you can minimize feelings of tiredness post-kinesiology sessions. Remember that everyone experiences kinesiology differently, so listen to your body and give yourself grace as you navigate this healing journey.
