Why Do I Feel Unwell After Kinesiology?

Why Do I Feel Unwell After Kinesiology?

Kinesiology is a holistic approach to health and wellness that aims to balance the body’s energy flow and promote overall well-being. It involves muscle testing and various techniques to identify imbalances and address them through gentle movements, touch, or other methods. While many people experience positive results from kinesiology sessions, some may feel unwell afterwards. In this blog post, we’ll explore some of the reasons why this might happen and what you can do about it.

One possible reason why you may feel unwell after a kinesiology session is that your body is going through a detoxification process. During the session, energy blockages are being released, which can stir up toxins in the body. This detoxification process can sometimes lead to symptoms such as fatigue, headaches, or digestive issues. It’s important to drink plenty of water after a kinesiology session to help flush out these toxins and support your body’s natural healing processes.

Another reason for feeling unwell after kinesiology could be related to emotional release. Kinesiology works on a physical, mental, emotional, and energetic level, so it’s not uncommon for deep-seated emotions to surface during a session. This emotional release can be cathartic but may also leave you feeling drained or sensitive afterwards. It’s important to give yourself time and space to process these emotions and be gentle with yourself during this time.

Additionally, feeling unwell after kinesiology could be a sign that your body is adjusting to the changes brought about by the session. Kinesiology aims to rebalance the body’s energy flow and address underlying issues, which can sometimes cause temporary discomfort as your body adapts to these shifts. It’s important to listen to your body’s signals and give yourself time to rest and recover if needed.

It’s also worth considering that feeling unwell after kinesiology may simply be part of the healing process. Healing is not always a linear journey, and sometimes things need to get worse before they get better. Trust in the process and know that any discomfort you’re experiencing is likely temporary as your body rebalances itself.

Feeling unwell after a kinesiology session can be unsettling, but it’s important to remember that it’s often a sign that your body is undergoing positive changes. By understanding some of the potential reasons behind these feelings – such as detoxification, emotional release, adjustment period, or part of the healing process – you can better navigate through them with patience and self-care. If you continue feeling unwell or have concerns about your symptoms, don’t hesitate to reach out to your kinesiologist for guidance and support. Remember that each individual responds differently to kinesiology sessions, so trust in your own unique healing journey.
