The Psoas Muscle! A Key Muscle for Stability, Stress & Survival

The psoas muscle is a deep core muscle that runs from the front of the lumbar spine (T12–L5) to the groin. It plays a big role in posture, walking, spinal stability and hip flexion, making it one of the most important muscles for everyday movement.

In kinesiology, the psoas is linked to the Kidney meridian which is associated with fear, anxiety and survival responses. Because of this connection, the psoas often becomes tight or inhibited during chronic stress, trauma or prolonged emotional strain.

Functions of the Psoas
• Stabilises the lumbar spine
• Connects upper and lower body movement
• Supports balance and posture
• Influences nervous system regulation
• Assists with blood sugar and fluid regulation via Kidney energy

Common Symptoms of Psoas Imbalance

A stressedor imbalanced psoas may cause:
• Brain fog
• Fatigue
• Memory or learning difficulties
• Anxiety and fear
• Lower back pain
• Detoxification issues
• Immune challenges (allergies, low immunity)
• Blood pressure or blood sugar imbalances
(including diabetes or hypoglycaemia)
• Tinnitus (ringing in the ears)

Related Organs & Systems

The psoas is energetically connected to:
• Kidneys
• Ears
• Bones & bone marrow
• White blood cells
• Fluid balance and blood filtration

Why the Psoas Matters

The psoas lies so close to the spine and nervous system, it often reacts first during stress. Over time, this can lead to both physical discomfort and emotional dysregulation.

Supporting the psoas through kinesiology, nervous system regulation, gentle movement and stress reduction can help restore:
• Postural balance
• Emotional stability
• A sense of safety and grounding

Your psoas muscle is the only muscle that connects your upper body to your legs. This is basically the body’s main bridge.

This deep core muscle plays a huge role in:
• Walking and running
• Posture and spinal support
• Balance and stability

In Chinese medicine, the psoas is closely linked with the Kidney meridian. In the energetic system this is connected to our sense of safety, fear, willpower and vitality.

When the kidneys feel supported, we feel grounded, strong and steady.
When they’re depleted or under stress, it can show up physically as tension in the psoas… and emotionally as fear, exhaustion or feeling unsteady.

Tiny muscle.
Deep emotional connection.
Big impact on how we move through life!

Your body always speaks…. sometimes through muscles, sometimes through emotions.

✨ What to Expect in Your First Kinesiology Session ✨

If you’re feeling curious but a little unsure about kinesiology, you’re not alone. Your first session is designed to feel safe, supportive and completely guided by what you need.

🌿 We start with a conversation

Your session begins with a detailed client history. We chat about what’s been going on for you including physically, emotionally, mentally or energetically. From this, we create a reason for consultation list that helps prioritise what your body is ready to address.

🌿 Gentle muscle testing

You’ll lie fully clothed on a massage table while gentle muscle testing is used. This isn’t about strength but it’s a feedback system that allows your body to communicate areas of stress, imbalance or stored emotion.

🌿 Balancing and release

Once imbalances are identified, we use a range of kinesiology techniques to help release stress and restore balance. This may include emotional stress release points, acupressure points, bowen, cranial sacral therapy, breathing, visualisation or gentle movements.

🌿 Every session is unique

No two sessions are the same. We only work with what it’s ready for.

🌿 What many people notice afterwards

Many clients report a better night’s sleep, more balanced emotions and a sense of feeling lighter and calmer in the days following a session.

You don’t need to believe in kinesiology for it to work.

Your nervous system is always responding to stress, safety, overwhelm, and rest this happens whether you’re aware of it or not.

Kinesiology simply listens to those signals and supports the body in finding balance again.

This is why sessions can feel grounding, clarifying, and surprisingly gentle, even for those who come in unsure.

No convincing.

No forcing.

Just working with what your body already knows.

Frontal & occipital lobe holding is one of the simplest yet most powerful techniques used in kinesiology.

By gently connecting the part of the brain that stores past experiences with the part that brings insight and regulation, the nervous system is able to calm and integrate. This is without needing to relive the past.

This is where clarity replaces overwhelm
and safety replaces survival.

If your body is ready for support,
you’re invited to book a session.

MYTH:
“Kinesiology is just spiritual… crystals, vibes, guessing and nothing grounded in the real world.”

TRUTH:
Kinesiology is actually a beautiful blend of science, energy and the body’s own innate intelligence. It is perfect for people who are open minded, curious and willing to explore healing from a deeper place.

• Neuroscience and how stress patterns affect the brain and nervous system
• Anatomy & physiology: muscles, organs, glands, reflexes and hormones
• Traditional Chinese Medicine: meridians, emotions and energetic flow
• Stress physiology: how the body stores and releases emotional load
• Biofeedback real time responses from the body

Muscle testing isn’t “magic.”
It’s simply a feedback tool showing where stress lives, what the body prioritises and what supports it to return to balance.

And here’s the part many people love most:
Kinesiology doesn’t ask you to believe in anything. You just need to be open to understanding yourself on a deeper level.

So no… it’s not woo woo.
It’s deep, intelligent, intuitive and incredibly effective for people who feel things strongly, think differently or want a more holistic approach to emotional wellbeing.

Kinesiology meets you exactly where you are and helps you move forward with more ease, self-awareness and inner calm.

Did you know?

Depression doesn’t just live in the mind…..it’s stored in the body too.

Emotional stress, past trauma and constant overwhelm can create chemical and energetic imbalances that leave you feeling heavy, flat or disconnected.

Through gentle muscle testing, kinesiology helps release that stored stress, calm the nervous system and support your body’s natural ability to restore balance emotionally, mentally and physically. 🌿

Helpful Hint, Tapping the Collarbone

Have you ever noticed how your body holds tension when you feel anxious or overwhelmed?

A simple way to calm your nervous system is by gently tapping the points just below your collarbone.

These points are connected to the Kidney meridian which supports grounding, safety and energy flow.
When tapped rhythmically, they help release stored stress and bring you back to balance.

Why it works:
• Sends soothing signals through the vagus nerve, shifting your body out of fight and flight.
• Activates the parasympathetic nervous system, supporting relaxation and calm.
• Helps energy move freely again so you can feel centred and steady.

Try this:
Place two or three fingers below your collarbone and gently tap both sides.
Take a slow breath in through your nose and exhale softly through your mouth.
Notice your chest soften, your breath deepen, and your mind quieten.

Your body is always listening sometimes it just needs a little reminder to feel safe again
