In the hustle and bustle of modern life, taking care of our bodies often takes a backseat.

Over the last 36 years Adrenal Stress is one of the most common conditions my clients have suffered from and I am noticing that the age for this is getting younger with most teenagers feeling the detrimental effects of stress. Within Systematic Kinesiology (SK) we have tests to ascertain which level of adrenal stress a person is suffering from. Stage 1 – Stressed – Knows it and feels tired with hypoadrenia Stage 2 – Highly Stressed – Loves the hyper feeling, they might say ‘I thrive on stress’ tired but wired with hyperadrenia. Disturbed sleep, waking in the early hours. Stage 3 – Very Stress ..read more

After a challenging period last year, marked by stress and holiday indulgence that resulted in some extra pounds, I realised it was time to rejuvenate and reset my system. Over the years, I’ve observed that the demands of modern life, with its environmental toxins, processed foods, and various stresses, take a toll on our bodies. The increasing prevalence of conditions and diseases underscores the necessity for detoxification to cleanse our bodies from within. Detoxification is a natural body process for eliminating toxins.

I have many women coming through the clinic that know very little about peri-menopause/menopause and how it affects their bodies. It’s encouraging to see that menopause has become a prominent subject in the media, gaining the attention it deserves and educating women on this natural process. However, much of the time the only solution offered by the Dr for symptoms is HRT or anti-depressants. However, Systematic Kinesiology offers natural, wholistic support for peri-menopause, menopause, and beyond to help women navigate the natural change, helping them to thrive and enjoy life. How do the ova ..read more

A guest blog post written by TASK Graduate, Antonia Beamish (Edited by TASK). I love to write about fear because it can be such a consistent companion in my life without me even realising it’s there. That’s the way fear works, it can be really subtle, hanging out just below the current of consciousness so that we can’t see, feel or hear it. Instead, we’re just blocked in our life but we don’t know why. Tend fears like weeds in a garden Fear takes up sacred space in the garden of our minds, cluttering up our vision, distorting our reality and manipulating our sense of self. This is why I love ..read more

The human body is a complex and intricate system of interconnected parts, each playing a crucial role in maintaining overall health and well-being. One such lesser-known but essential component is the ileocecal valve (ICV). Situated at the junction of the small intestine and the large intestine, this valve regulates the passage of digested food, prevents backflow, and plays a pivotal role in gut health. When the ICV malfunctions, it can lead to discomfort and digestive issues. In this blog, we’ll delve into the world of the ileocecal valve, its importance, common issues, and how systematic k ..read more

A guest blog post written by TASK Graduate, Rachael Kennard-Wall (Edited by TASK). So often when I’m treating patients in the clinic with digestive issues I hear them say the same thing. “I’ve tried probiotics and they don’t make any difference, they don’t work.” Leaving them despondent.  In many circumstances the probiotics were never going to be the right thing for them – We’ll discuss why that is during this blog post.  By the end, you will be dutifully informed and much clearer in the knowledge of whether you should be taking probiotics right now or taking a different appro ..read more

Currently in the U.K. one in six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Every man has a prostate although I find most don’t know how to look after theirs and prevent problems especially as they get older. This blog post will look at prostate problems and how Systematic Kinesiology can help.
