SPECIALISED KINESIOLOGY COLLEGE OF SOUTH AFRICA

Traditionally Kinesiology means the study of body movement; in particular the study of how muscles act and coordinate to move the body. However, in the alternative health field the term Kinesiology is used in a different way. Here, muscles become monitors of stress and imbalance within the person where "muscle testing", the technique used in Kinesiology, is applied as a verification tool for detecting and correcting various imbalances in the person which may relate to emotional or physical stress, nutritional imbalances, learning problems, injuries and so on.
