If your question is not answered here, please contact your nearest practitioner.
We are asking the innate, the body's own healing wisdom, and nothing happens if the practitioner picks the wrong link – the body always wants to heal itself in the fastest, most effective way, so it will choose the most appropriate links. Sometimes people experience a feeling of tiredness after a session while their body undergoes the healing process. Sometimes while they are clearing out old emotions they may experience loose bowels.
BodyTalk does not diagnose or prescribe anything. If your BodyTalk practitioner is qualified in another modality that prescribes those things, they may do so.
Yes they can, and this happens sometimes. But the good news is if the practitioner taps out those things that have been highlighted and they are the incorrect sequence, the new configuration will not be updated and no harm will be done.
No. With BodyTalk we are working with the body's own healing ability, which is different to the person's conscious mind. The body is constantly healing itself by using its own healing ability – it does not matter if we think it is or not.
BodyTalk is a totally new paradigm for people. Yes it does work. It is scientifically known that healing resources are reduced in the body when we are in fight or flight mode. Because of everyday stresses in modern society, we are often in fight or flight mode, which compromises our body's ability to function.
BodyTalk is not officially recognised by the medical profession, but there are doctors that practice BodyTalk – doctors are beginning to recognise the validity. A lot of the theories behind BodyTalk are starting to be proven by top physicists and cellular biologists; for example Bruce Lipton. Twenty years ago people did not recognise acupuncture even though it has been around for thousands of years.
We use neuromuscular feedback. Neuromuscular feedback is a technique that was developed some years ago – it is a way of testing the person's body to find out what they need. When the practitioner is doing neuromuscular feedback they are tapping into the client's inner wisdom – the part of the body that knows how to heal itself.
15 years. It was developed by Dr John Veltheim in the mid 90s. He developed it from his background in chiropractic, acupuncture, kinesiology and other natural therapies.
The innate wisdom of the body is the part of us that knows how to heal itself. It's the part of the body that guides the function of individual body parts, synchronizes activity amongst the various parts and maintains balance in the bodymind.
BodyTalk Access is five simple yet effective BodyTalk techniques that can be used by the layperson with friends and family. It takes one day to learn and 10 minutes to implement. BodyTalk Access is different to BodyTalk as muscle testing is not used to find out what the priority for balancing is, and only 5 of the many powerful techniques are utilized. However, BodyTalk Access has amazing results and is used for health maintenance and emergency situations.
BodyTalk has seen great results with many conditions including arthritis, cancer, sports injuries, sports performance, emotional disorders, learning disorders, digestive disorders, endocrine disorders, chronic fatigue, headaches, phobias, pain, stress, viruses, infections and allergies. Clinical experience has shown that when the overall system is balanced these symptoms are impacted.
