The Kinesiology Room, Magor (2026)

30/01/2026

January has been full of lovely, calming sessions and empowering moments. 🙏💫 Love this work!

The psoas, a deep muscle associated with the Kidney meridian and often known as the “muscle of the soul”, has been making itself known in The Kinesiology Room this month.

From a TCM perspective, it’s no surprise to see this muscle showing imbalance during winter, a season linked with Kidney energy, our deep reserves and capacity to cope, because we tend to remain overactive during a time for rest and restoration.

😣 The psoas is closely tied to the stress response. It’s often influenced by anxiety, prolonged stress, and adrenal load, and when imbalanced, functionally we may see things like magnesium, sodium, and essential fatty acids show in muscle testing.

💪🏻 🦴 Structurally, the psoas connects the spine to the legs. When our fight-or-flight response is activated, it can remain in a state of tension, impacting the lower back, hips, digestion, and diaphragm.

💕Emotionally, fear and unresolved stress patterns are often involved and there can be deeper, long-held limiting beliefs, inner child or even ancestral themes that the body asks us to work on.

💦Over the past few weeks, psoas and other muscles on the Kidney meridian have been showing imbalances in different ways for different people. Digestive symptoms, ear or eye issues, headaches, skin flare-ups, immune system issues, anxiety, fears, burnout, fluid retention around ankles and neck or back discomfort. Different expressions from the body, but all asking for support for the same system.

🌿 There’s been plenty of emotional release work involving this muscle through January, and the timing is significant. 💫The Kidney meridian is linked with fulfilling potential and transforming fear into wisdom, which feels especially relevant in the world we’re living in right now. Many people are sensing that change and clearing is required, both personally and collectively, in order to move forward 🐎 in 2026.

Christmas is incoming!

Closing for Christmas from Friday 19th Dec to Friday 2nd Jan 🎄

✨ 🌿 Time for me to take my own advice to rest and restore. ✨ 🌿

10/12/2025

EDIT: Thank you so much for your interest! 💕I’ve had a few responses and emails so will get in touch with those of you who have made contact to chat things through. I’ll let you all know if any more spaces come up. Lots of love, Ruth

🌿 I’m inviting 5 people who’d love to make progress with their wellbeing to 4 kinesiology sessions in early 2026 🌿

I’m coming to the end of my kinesiology diploma (the highest level of training for kinesiologists) and as part of my assessment I need to complete 5 case studies.

This means working with 5 people, who will each have 4 sessions: one per month in Jan, Feb, March and April 2026.

✨This is a wonderful opportunity for anyone wanting natural health or wellbeing support, or those who feel pulled to work on things at a deeper level. ✨

One kinesiology session is absolutely amazing, but there is so much more we can un-layer over a few sessions! Over four months, we will have the space to gently release stressors, get to the root of what’s going on from a whole person perspective, and facilitate your progress using a wide range of kinesiology tools.

Ideally, you’ll be new to The Kinesiology Room or have just started working with me but if you have been to me before, and are interested, message me for a chat and I can let you know if you meet the requirements.

Because it’s part of my studies, you will need to agree to:
🌿 give permission for your client intake form and session notes to be seen by my tutor for the purpose of assessing my work. Everything is kept confidential/anonymous, and all paperwork returns to me once I receive feedback.
🌿commit to the 4 sessions so we can track your progress.

In gratitude for helping me complete my training:
✨ the total price for all sessions will be heavily reduced.
✨ all sessions will be spacious, intentional and deeply supportive.

AND

✨You’ll receive really focused, dedicated support from a highly trained practitioner throughout the four months with the additional benefit of any feedback my tutor provides, which will deepen our work even further.

🌿 If you’ve just started with me and want to take up this offer, or if you feel like this is the right time to begin your kinesiology journey, just send me a message and we chat about how this can work for you. 🌿

✨ Is 2026 going to be the year you feel more you?! ✨

✨Client Feedback✨

" A few things sprang to mind that I wanted to share. A snake came on the TV whilst I was watching Race Across the World. I didn’t shudder like I normally would. I also noticed I didn’t feel motion sickness in an airplane."

The scope of things kinesiology can support is huge and the direction we can take in a session is SO varied.

Sometimes clients choose to work on specific emotional issues, such as fears, phobias or long-held patterns and kinesiology allows us to explore what’s beneath those reactions to facilitate real shifts.

Fear-based responses aren’t just “in the mind.” They’re stored in the body and nervous system. Over time, the body learns a specific stress pattern. The increased tension, the surge of stress hormones, the instinctive recoil, the self defeating inner talk ... even when the threat no longer exists.

✨ Kinesiology helps interrupt and rebalance that pattern.

Through muscle testing, we can identify:
✨ where the stress is held
✨ which circuits are being activated
✨ what emotions are linked.. and which corrections help the nervous system soften and feel safe again

As the fight-or-flight response settles and new pathways form, the body begins to respond differently in real situations, exactly like in this lovely review. When the body feels safer, you might realise you feel lighter and calmer.

There comes a point in our wellness journey when we stop looking for quick fixes and start seeking understanding.

When symptoms stop feeling random.
When “just coping” stops feeling enough.
And when we begin to realise… our body isn’t against us, it’s trying to speak to us.

💫 Kinesiology is where that conversation begins.

💫 Are you ready to meet yourself?

Not just the version that’s focused on getting through day-to-day, but the part of you beneath the noise. The one who holds your patterns, emotions, and wisdom.

We live in a world that’s brilliant at offering “sticking plasters.”
A pill for this.
A trending supplement for that.
Something to silence the symptom.

But wellbeing isn’t about suppression. It’s about integration.
Instead of distraction and denial, it’s about dialogue and discovery.

It’s understanding what your body is saying through the fatigue, anxiety, bloating, pain, or overwhelm.

And it’s having the courage to meet yourself. The openness to listen to those messages.

What is the lesson?
What is your body asking for?
What is holding you back?
Who are you here to be?

Kinesiology helps you do that.
Through gentle muscle testing, we connect the dots between the physical, emotional, biochemical and energetic realms of your wellbeing, uncovering your story. The one your body has been holding all along.

If you’re ready to do the work, to get curious about your emotional patterns, nurture your nervous system, and make lifestyle shifts that support your body then kinesiology might just be for you.

Because your wellbeing is found in understanding yourself.
And that moment when you start to meet yourself on every level, mind, body, and soul, is where transformation truly begins.

Been feeling a bit “off” lately and can’t quite explain why?
You’re not imagining it … your hormones are often the first to sense and act on imbalance.

Last weekend I learned a new hormone-balancing technique that supports the whole endocrine system and it reminded me of how important it is to respect the interconnected nature of our bodies.

When we think “hormones,” we often think mood swings, PMS, or perimenopause, but the endocrine system is so much more than that.

It’s a delicate cascade that begins right in the brain, with the hypothalamus, which sends messages to the pituitary gland, often called the “master gland.”

From there, signals flow to the thyroid, adrenals, ovaries, the pancreas and back to the brain again in an intelligent feedback loop, creating a beautifully orchestrated hormonal symphony that influences:
✨ menstrual cycles and fertility
✨ mood and emotional regulation
✨ energy levels and sleep
✨ metabolism, digestion, and blood sugar balance

It’s easy to focus on one gland when symptoms appear, like the thyroid when energy disappears, or the ovaries when cycles change, but in truth, no gland ever works alone.

If the thyroid is struggling, we often need to look upstream to the pituitary (which tells it how much hormone to produce) and the adrenals (ongoing release of stress hormones can suppress thyroid function).

If the ovaries are out of rhythm, it’s also wise to look to the hypothalamus or pituitary because they’re the ones sending the hormonal “instructions” in the first place.

Every message in the endocrine system is a conversation between glands.
When one voice is out of tune, the whole orchestra feels it.

The beauty of kinesiology is that it doesn’t isolate … it integrates.

💛 This new technique supports the hormonal communication network, helping to rebalance that conversation and reduce the stress load that disrupts it.

Because your hormones aren’t broken.
They’re responding. To life, to emotion, to stress, to the food you eat, and to the environment (for example, we are increasingly exposed to endocrine disrupting chemicals) around you.

When the body feels safe and supported, it knows how to find its balance again.

🌿 Gentle, and restorative, this new balancing technique is especially powerful for perimenopause, but beneficial for any woman who feels hormonally “off” or disconnected from her body.

📩 Message me if you feel hormone-balancing is just what you need to help your body reconnect to its natural rhythm.

🌿 The stress you think you’re coping with might be costing your body more than you realise. 🌿

Today is Stress Awareness Day.
Something most of us live with everyday and are probably already feeling very aware of! ☺️

We often think of stress as a feeling … tense, overwhelmed, wired, tired. And we usually link it to circumstances outside of us.

But stressors can also be internal.

Our stress response is also activated by:
✨ Thoughts, beliefs and the stories we tell ourselves
✨ Lack of sleep
✨ Illness or inflammation
✨ Nutrient depletion
✨ Environmental overwhelm (hello sensory overload)

Stress isn't only emotional.
It's biochemical. Physical. Energetic.
And it uses real resources inside the body.

Your body is designed to handle stress beautifully. Short bursts, recover, repeat.
We’re bloody incredible really.

But chronic, long-term stress? Well, then your body works overtime. Things shift out of balance.

It touches every system, from mood and focus to digestion, immunity, hormones and energy.

And yet… we normalise it.

🤯We don’t always recognise our modern, everyday stressors.
🤯We don’t just live in stress, we adapt to it.
🤯We keep listening to the inner stories we tell ourselves that feed the stress loop.
🤯We chase the rush it gives, or stay busy so we don't have to slow down and feel deeper.

🤯We even celebrate “pushing through”.

But pushing without pause isn’t a win. It’s depletion and disconnection. And eventually the body will ask for attention.

Over time, ongoing stress can use up or impact the absorption of key nutrients, including:
🧠 B vitamins which are needed for energy, mood regulation & nervous system support
⚡ Magnesium used every time the body calms a stress signal
🌡️ Vitamin C which the adrenal glands use huge amounts of during stress responses
🧬 Zinc which is essential for immunity, hormone balance & healing

💩Stress can also change your gut microbiome.

When these changes occur, there’s a consequence. You might notice:
🤯Feeling wired but exhausted
🤯Brain fog, emotional sensitivity or not feeling quite yourself
🤯Digestive changes, food sensitivities and cravings
🤯Headaches
🤯Sleep disturbances
🤯Hormone fluctuations
🤯Increased pain, inflammation or tension

Stress isn’t just a feeling.
It fundamentally changes what your body needs.

✨ How Kinesiology can Help✨

🌿 Muscle testing identifies where stress is held and helps release layers (physically/energetically/emotionally)
🌿Muscle testing can help you join the dots and make sense of what is going on emotionally and physiologically
🌿 Kinesiology corrections support the nervous system to move out of survival mode
🌿 Muscle testing highlights potential nutritional support
🌿 Kinesiology sessions bring you into a parasympathetic, restorative state

This isn’t guessing.
It’s listening to the body’s feedback and supporting balance so it can do what it’s designed to do: repair, restore and reset.

If stress has been your “normal” lately, your body is communicating. You just need a way to listen.

✨ Client Feedback ✨

"Two months with a rash, 3 different creams from the doctors and it still wasn’t gone. One session with Ruth where she identified a cows milk sensitivity and over a week without dairy the rash is gone. Amazing!"

In this session, we found a link between a skin issue and cows milk. We helped the body with it's response to cows milk using some specific techniques and then, by avoiding dairy for now, the client has given her body the space it needed to rebalance. 🌱

🌸 Menopause Awareness Day: Supporting Your Body’s Transition 🌸

Menopause is a natural phase, but that doesn’t always mean it feels easy. For some, it brings hot flushes or sleep disruption. For others, it’s mood swings, anxiety, brain fog, or fatigue.

Every woman’s experience is unique because the root causes behind these symptoms can vary so much.

In Kinesiology sessions, we don’t just look at symptoms in isolation, instead we explore what’s influencing them. And during peri/menopause, there are often many layers at play.

Let’s break a few of these down 👇

🦋 Thyroid
Fluctuating estrogen and progesterone can affect thyroid function, which influences metabolism, mood, and energy. It often needs a little extra support during this transition.

🌸 Estrogen Dominance
Progesterone drops before estrogen, leaving many women in relative estrogen dominance … cue heavy periods, PMS, and mood swings. Supporting the liver and other detox systems helps the body clear excess hormones more efficiently.

💤 Adrenals & Stress
As the ovaries slow down, the adrenal glands take over some hormone production. But if stress is high, the body will prioritise cortisol. Survival instincts will win out every time and the body will choose “getting through” the moment over balance. This can leave you running on empty. Rest and adrenal support can make all the difference.

🍬 Insulin Resistance
Lower estrogen affects how well your body handles sugar, leading to blood sugar highs and lows. And yes, no prizes for guessing what the body does with glucose it can’t get into cells.

🌿 Histamine Intolerance
Fluctuating estrogen can increase histamine and reduce the DAO enzyme that breaks it down. This can lead to itchy skin, rashes, anxiety, and even migraines.

🔥 Inflammation & Immune Balance
Estrogen has natural anti-inflammatory effects, so as levels decline, the body can become more prone to low-grade inflammation. This can show up as joint pain, fatigue, or general achiness, and over time, ongoing inflammation can place extra demand on the immune system.

And beneath all these layers lies gut health. The foundation influencing everything from hormone balance to mood, immunity, and inflammation.

✨ Kinesiology helps untangle these layers from the root. ✨

This isn’t about chasing symptoms. It’s about helping your body find its new rhythm and restoring harmony through gentle muscle testing that explores where your body needs the most support across the four realms of wellbeing: physical, biochemical, emotional, and energetic.

Whether that’s balancing the liver and gut systems, working through the emotional and spiritual shifts that come with the physical changes, reducing inflammation or restoring energy through the adrenals, the body holds the answers you’re looking for.

💚 If you’re moving through peri-menopause or menopause and feel your body is asking for support, drop me a message to find out how kinesiology could help you feel more like you again.

📅 October is now fully booked, but November appointments are available.
