Program
Kinesiology
Learn theory and practice-oriented consultation in examples of how kinesiology can eliminate illness, pain, emotions, or stress. Stress can diminish performance, impair physical health, and even adversely affect the social environment. Simple and clear explanation of the theory and application of kinesiology by Yoga Skyros IKE kinesiologist will be provided.
Kinesiology developed by Dr. George Goodheart in 1963, who discovered the connection of behavior to certain muscles and organs. He eliminated the blockages in the corresponding meridian system (energy lines in the body according to traditional Chinese medicine) under the application of neurolymphatic acupressure, neurovascular acupressure, or treatment of the corresponding meridian. Blockages are the causes of illness, pain, or emotional stress.
Activation of the neurovascular points increases the blood flow on the micro capillary level and cells that are connected to organs. Activation of the neurolymphatic points has the effect of eliminating toxins from the cells and thus eliminating stress in the nervous system.
Edward Bach healing methods
In 1930, the English physician Dr. Edward Bach (bacteriologist and surgeon) found the 38 Dr. Bach Flowers, which represents a closed system and work on the basis of moods and emotions.
Practical examples show how Dr. Bach flower remedy method reverses a negative feeling into a positive feeling. Negative feelings that exist too long and increases are the cause of many diseases, pain, and unnecessary stress.
Do not be afraid or insecure anymore, have the interest in the here and now, no longer feel loneliness, no longer be vulnerable to changes in life, and no more despair or despair, or unnecessarily worrying about others. Enjoy life without blocking negative feelings.
With Dr. Bach practitioner, you will work out your individual Bach Flower Combination together.
