🌸 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.

One of the questions I’m often asked is, “How can kinesiology support emotions if it isn’t talking therapy?”

It’s a really good question and one I love answering.

💫 Emotional Wellbeing & Kinesiology 💫
We now know from trauma-informed research, neuroscience, and somatic psychology that the body holds emotion and stress. Experiences that we don’t fully process at the time, moments of fear, grief, overwhelm, or even chronic stress can become stored in our soma (the body), fascia, and even our organs. This can happen during big, small or cumulative emotional events.

When a stress response isn’t able to fully complete, for example, when our capacity to cope is exceeded by the level of stress or emotion we’re facing, whether that’s staying composed during something distressing or being under prolonged pressure, the body’s natural response is to store that unprocessed energy so we can keep functioning in the moment. That energy and emotion can become “stuck,” leaving an imprint within the nervous system.

The body doesn’t forget.

It simply waits for a moment to feel safe enough to release.

You might notice this as:
💭 recurring emotional patterns, e.g low self-esteem
💪 unexplained tension, pain or health issues
💤 exhaustion or brain fog
💓 feeling anxious “for no reason”
🧠 self-limiting behaviours or beliefs that keep you in survival mode, like not going for promotions that are absolutely perfect for you, or finding it hard to ask for help.

This is where kinesiology comes in.
It’s not about re-living or analysing emotions through words … it’s about giving the body a voice.

Through gentle muscle testing, kinesiology helps us tap into the body’s innate wisdom and identify where stress, emotion, or energetic imbalance is being held. Once we’ve located it, we use a variety of techniques, including Bach flower remedies and other balancing methods, to support release, helping the nervous system settle and the body re-adapt.

I love this work that helps reconnect the mind and body.

Talking your way through emotional healing is one way of feeling more yourself … but your body also knows the story. My role is to hold space, listen to what your body is communicating, and support it in letting go of what it no longer needs to carry.

✨ When emotion is released at this level, people often describe feeling lighter, calmer, more centred, as though something deep within them has finally exhaled. ✨

Emotional wellbeing is a whole body experience.

💚 If you’ve been feeling emotionally stuck, overwhelmed, or just not like yourself, kinesiology can help you gently reconnect and restore emotional balance.

As many of you know, I’m currently studying for my Kinesiology Diploma which is the highest level of qualification, and I’ve just completed the fourth module, which means I’m already a third of the way through 🎉.

Going back to studying again has been a real mix of wow moments, brain-stretching, organisation, and a fair bit of self-reflection too. It’s also been so worth it because with every module, my toolkit for supporting you expands in amazing ways. I learned seven new techniques/tools this weekend alone!

This last module was mostly about the digestive system and wow, it was a big one. 🧠 One of the tools we learned was how to assess and balance the ileocecal valve (ICV). The ICV is a small but mighty muscular valve that acts like a “gatekeeper” between your small and large intestine. If it’s not working properly, it can lead to bloating, discomfort and all sorts of digestive 💩 chaos. Now, I have new ways to test and support this area so your digestion can run more smoothly. 🙌🏻

What I love most about learning at this level is how it deepens everything I can offer in your sessions, allowing us to release more layers each time. Kinesiology isn’t just about addressing one symptom, it’s about connecting the dots across your physical, biochemical, emotional, and energetic health. And with each new skill I add, the detective work we do together in sessions becomes even more targeted and effective.

So, if you come to me with digestive issues, low energy, hormone issues, emotional overwhelm, skin issues or just a feeling that something’s “off,” know that my toolkit is growing all the time, and I’m bringing everything I learn straight into the treatment room to support you. 🌿

📅 P.S. I only have 6 sessions left available in October and November bookings are underway, so message me if you’d like to book in and see how these new tools could support your health journey.

🌿 12 Reasons Clients Visited The Kinesiology Room in September

Every session tells a story. Kinesiology is not about symptom-chasing.

Many people first come to see me because they’re experiencing specific issues, from digestive discomfort and low energy to chronic pain or emotional overwhelm. But symptoms are really just messages from the body that something is out of balance.

In kinesiology, we look beyond the surface and take a holistic approach to understand the whole person, working across all four realms of wellbeing:
💪🏻 Physical: supporting improved lymphatic flow or releasing tension
🥦 Biochemical: such as offering tailored nutritional suggestions
💕 Emotional: releasing emotional stress from the body
⚡️ Energetic: supporting your body’s electrical system and energy flow through meridians and chakras

Here are 12 reasons people visited The Kinesiology Room this month. For each of these clients, we explored what was going on underneath the symptoms, supporting the body’s natural ability to restore balance and move towards better health and wellbeing.

Whatever brings you through the door, each session is tailored uniquely to what your body needs.

📅 October appointments are already filling up, and availability is limited. If you’d like to experience how kinesiology can support you, message me or email thekinesiologyroom@gmail.com.

🕵️‍♀️I’ve been playing detective this afternoon, testing my husband to find sensitivities and supporting his body to reduce its reactivity. 🌿

A while ago, we discovered that dairy was affecting some of the neck muscles linked to his sinuses, and he’s seen a huge improvement in sinus issues since making some changes there.

Today, we found that dairy still weakens those neck muscles, but it’s also affecting the Gall Bladder meridian. We used a simple technique to help reduce the body’s reactivity. Because the gall bladder plays a key role in breaking down fats, we’ll be exploring that connection further in a future session.🕵️‍♀️

We also found that his body was struggling with gluten, so we did some supportive work there too.

During the session, his body indicated it needed a little help from anti-inflammatory quercetin and digestive enzymes. And because kinesiology is such a magical, versatile modality, we also incorporated chakra work, meridian tapping, and Bach flower remedies … because we are so much more than just a physical body.

🕵️‍♀️The body leaves a trail of clues for us to follow. 🕵️‍♀️Today’s session not only offered support in the moment but also gave us valuable information for the next one.

I love this about kinesiology. It reminds us that health is not a fixed destination but an ongoing journey of listening, adjusting, and finding balance. 🌿

✨ Client Feedback ✨

“Glad to say, my arm is loads better! It’s been easing since the session, but today I did class, used weights and doesn’t seem to be any after effects! I might have the odd twinge but hopefully 💪 ###”

This client had been dealing with shoulder/arm pain that came and went. Sometimes there, sometimes not, which made it difficult to pinpoint.

After our session, the discomfort began easing gradually day by day … a beautiful sign that the body was realigning itself. When we remove stressors from the body we allow healing to unfold naturally. 🌿

We uncovered an emotional link to indecision, and by working with that alongside some gentle balancing around the neck and jaw, the body could finally relax, reset, and begin to restore.

🎶 Using Sound in Kinesiology Sessions 🎶

One of the tools I sometimes use in sessions, if the body tells us they’re needed, is specialised tuning forks. I use specialised therapeutic tuning forks, designed for healing with specific frequencies that the body can respond to. The gentle vibrations can have a surprisingly powerful effect on bringing balance to the body and mind.

Muscle testing helps me identify if sound is what your system needs to return to balance.

Here are some of the ways sound may support you in a Kinesiology session:

🧠 Balancing the nervous system
The vibrations help calm the body, regulate the autonomic nervous system, and encourage alpha brainwaves, bringing a sense of calm, clarity, and relaxation.

🧬 Cellular support
Our cells each have a natural vibration. Stress, pain, or inflammation can disrupt this. Tuning forks provide a subtle rebalance, entraining the cells back to a harmonic frequency.

✨ Energy Flow
Sound helps restore coherence where there is dissonance in the body’s biofield (the electrical field around us). Often, both myself and clients notice the fork itself changes tone in these areas, sounding dull, muffled, or “off.” As coherence returns, the sound clears. Very cool!

💪🏻 Pain and tension relief
When placed on tight muscles, tender points, or joints, vibrations travel deep into the tissues, encouraging muscles to relax and easing discomfort.

🥦 Digestive issues
Vibrations can positively influence the vagus nerve, which plays a key role in gut function, helping digestion flow more smoothly.

Sound work is gentle, non-invasive, and deeply relaxing. It’s just one of the many ways a Kinesiology session with The Kinesiology Room supports all four realms of wellbeing:
💪🏻 Physical
🥦 Biochemical
💛 Emotional
💫 Energetic

✨ Is Your Digestion trying to tell you something? ✨

Bloating, sluggish bowels, IBS type symptoms, cravings or feeling tired after eating are struggles many people face, but the tricky part is, it’s not always clear what to do to resolve them.

✨ This is where kinesiology makes such a difference.✨

Through gentle muscle testing, we can pinpoint exactly what’s going on for YOUR body and whether there is a need for:
🥦 Digestive enzymes or other nutritional support
🍞 Looking at food sensitivities
💧 Hydration and gut flow support
😣 Releasing stress or emotions interfering with digestion
🔋 Supporting hormones or adrenal fatigue that may be affecting digestion
🌿 Energetic support for the digestive meridians

Instead of guessing, kinesiology takes out the uncertainty, so your body gets the specific support it needs to restore balance. A Kinesiology session works across all 4 realms of wellbeing; physical, biochemical, emotional, and energetic.

Your gut health is deeply connected to your overall wellbeing, from immunity and energy, to inflammation and mood. When digestion is in balance, everything flows more smoothly.

🍂 Autumn Reset: Immune + Energy Support 🍂

September is a season of transition. Autumn is a time of clearing and letting go. Just as the trees shed their leaves, our bodies naturally shift into a new rhythm.

This change from the high energy of summer can feel refreshing, but it can also place extra demands on the immune system, gut, and stress levels as the body detoxes from summer adventures, replenishes energy, and adapts to the season ahead.

It’s common to notice:
😴 Feeling more tired or sluggish
⚖️Feeling out of balance
🌧️ Lower mood
🚪 Struggles with personal boundaries
🤯 A dip in concentration
😣 Heightened stress sensitivity
🤧 More frequent colds or slower recovery

💫 How kinesiology can support you this autumn:
💧 Lymphatic support
When lymph flows well, waste and toxins clear more easily and immunity strengthens

🥦 Gut support
Nutritional defiencies, food sensitivities and addressing bloating or other digestive issues to restore balance after a summer of treats or falling out of routine

💛 Emotional support
Helping the body process stress and adapt to change

🔋 Adrenal support
Recharging depleted physical energy

🌿 Energy flow techniques
Restoring balance and vitality to energy systems

If you’re feeling the September slump, this is the perfect time for a seasonal reset kinesiology session, helping you boost immunity before the colder months, calm stress, and step into autumn with renewed energy.

📅 September and October appointment bookings are open. DM me or email thekinesiolgyroom@gmail.com to book your session.

✨ A really cool session story and example of how “the body keeps the score” … ✨

Last week I worked with a client’s scar ⚡️using a new kinesiology technique I’ve been learning. When we tested the scar, something surprising came up … it wasn’t just physical. The scar was holding an emotional imprint.

At first I reached for the Bach remedy Star of Bethlehem (often used for shock and trauma) but my hand landed on Mustard instead. When I tested, that’s exactly what the body wanted (there are no mistakes in these moments, only intuition and guidance 💫 😉💫).

🌑Mustard relates to feelings of gloom and hopelessness, like being under a heavy dark cloud. The client shared that the time leading up to the operation that left the scar, was the worst time of their life because of the pain they were in. That emotion had stayed with the scar all this time because the body “remembers” the stress, fear, shock or pain of the original experience.

The Science Bit. Research shows that electrical fields are created at wound sites, and specific signals, like “cries for help”, aid healing. But the scars⚡️ left behind from altered cell structure can disrupt communication, potentially causing stress and inflammation in surrounding cells, fascia, and tissue. We also know that emotions are electrochemical 🧪responses to our 💭 thoughts and experiences, creating real physiological 💪🏻effects. And so we can begin to see how the body truly holds onto our stories.

Scars can also impact the flow of meridian energy depending on the location in the body.

We’ll never know exactly how the emotional stressor linked to their scar may have presented itself in the future, but we do know that the body chose 🌼Mustard Bach remedy to support itself.

🌞 The gift of Mustard is that it restores brightness and lightness. Watching the body choose what it needs is such a powerful reminder of how body, mind, and emotions are deeply connected.

And it’s a reminder that our body does indeed keep the score. But through Kinesiology we can help it restore. 💛

Love this explanation of Kinesiology removing the layers which leads to those wonderful shifts, 💫 from my Kinesi-friend Balanced Nutrition Bude

This is exactly how I feel Kinesiology works. You don’t notice that you’re healing, you just do, you just feel different.

Things that once triggered you aren’t such a big deal, feelings dissipate & the realisation comes that something has shifted.

The magic comes from removing the ‘layers’ as only Kinesiology can, as each layer (no matter what the root cause & often emotional) is released a little more balance is restored, meaning the body can cope with all the things it’s compensating for - just a little bit more….& then you notice…you’re healing ❤️‍🩹
