Moving
on from Allergies with Touch for Health Kinesiology
Allergies...we
hear a lot about them these days. So many people seem to suffer
with asthma, hay fever, food allergies, IBS, eczema. Many causes
and reasons lie behind these conditions, which can be mildly irritating,
inconvenient, painful or even life-threatening. Kinesiology
is often used as tool to track down what exactly a body is reacting
to. This can be very useful in identifying the cause and indicating
which substance should be avoided or eliminated. It is important
to distinguish a kinesiology session as being different from “allergy
testing”, which is not what we do.
There
is another factor in allergy and intolerance control and that is
our old friend – Stress. A body might be mildly intolerant
of many things - foods, chemicals, air-borne particles, and cope
well under normal conditions, but add a traumatic situation or emotional
stress into the equation and the intolerance can suddenly become
far more extreme.
I
speak from personal experience where this is concerned...I
suddenly developed what I thought was a severe cold one Christmas,
and it carried on for months, with painful sinuses, sneezing fits,
itchy eyes, runny nose – really horrid. I was prescribed
nasal sprays and antihistamines, which helped, but only temporarily
relieving the symptoms. In the end I went for allergy testing
in hospital – which showed nothing, I was not allergic to
any of the pin prick substances. The doctors were baffled,
and could offer no further advice.
When
I started my TFH training I was still sneezing! This had lasted
for 3 years, varying in degrees of severity. My trainer used
me as an example of someone suffering physical symptoms to demonstrate
ESR (emotional stress release). He managed, very skilfully,
to back track to the cause of my sneezing, using muscle checking. I
could clearly remember when it had started, and what was going on
in my life at the time but had never associated the 2 factors. Once
he and the other trainees were aware of them, it made sense. My
fellow student pointed out “Your body is saying “what
about me?” How true that was; I had been stuck in the
middle of a disagreement between 2 close friends, an impossible
situation that had never been resolved, and it had affected me far
more than I had realised. We muscle tested for some flower
remedies, which I took for a few weeks, and that, combined with
ESR (which we can do for ourselves) sorted it out.
I
still do get bouts of sneezing and hay fever symptoms from time
to time, but I can recognise the situations that bring it on. If
I can’t resolve them, I use ESR and other TFH techniques.
In extreme cases Bach flowers or homeopathic remedies can be used
to get over the bout, but I am so much more in control, and aware
of my own body and stress levels.
I
see clients with intolerances, quite often food intolerances and
IBS, and many times these can be helped by TFH techniques, by tracking
down the problem substance and diffusing the stress that aggravates
the problem. So often the stress is buried in the unconscious
and is long forgotten, but once it surfaces, can be released and
dealt with. TFH will also indicate which foods are beneficial
to an individual at the time of their balance, or other foods to
avoid. If necessary, we can muscle check for the Bach Flower remedies
that will help ease the problem, using our stock at MNHC.
