Intolerance Testing
Reactions to substances
A high percentage of people have an 'intolerance' to certain substances, this type of negative reaction causes an adverse affect somewhere
within the body's system. This can make the sufferer feel extremely unwell and can have a major impact on their working and social life.
Symptoms can vary greatly and include:
- Abdominal Pain/bloating
- Addictions/Cravings
- Asthma
- Attention Deficit Disorder
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Digestive problems
- Dermatitis
- Eczema
- Exhaustion
- Fluid Retention
- Hayfever
- Headaches/Migraines
- Hives
- Hypoglycaemia
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome
- Mood Swings
- Muscle/Joint pains
- Rashes
- Sleep Disturbance
- Weight problems
- And lots more.
However people are often not aware that any health problems they are experiencing might be caused by an intolerance to a particular
substance that they might be eating, drinking, using, or something that is in their living or working environment
Touch For Health Kinesiology
Touch For Health can be used to test an individuals reaction and level of intolerance to almost any kind of substance. Unlike other tests there are NO blood tests involved and the results are immediate. The feedback from muscle testing allows us to either eliminate, or cut down our intake of the substance, enabling us to make informed choices about our own health and wellbeing.
Testing Procedure
To ensure the testing of any substances will be accurate some prechecks are carried out before the testing takes place. These confirm that the brain is able to communicate with the body and make sure there is no confusion in co-ordination or function. The muscles that directly correspond to a body organ can be used in the testing to give feedback about how the substance is effecting them.
Unlike other testing procedures you do not have to eat, drink, inhale, or make contact with the suspected allergen. The testing is done by placing an unopened vial of the substance near the parotid gland, which is between the ear and the jawbone. A clear indicator muscle and a spinal reflex point is then used to access to the body’s energy system and can tell us if you a sensitivity to a substance and to what level your system can tolerate it. For example testing might show that your Large Intestine has an intolerance to wholemeal bread but can tolerate you eating 2 slices of rye bread a day.
Making Changes
It may only be necessary to eliminate a substance from your system for a certain period of time. You can re-test if you want to check that it is safe to to reintroduce the substance back into your system at a later date. You can also choose to make a Lifestyle Plan, or use an appropriate treatment to support any changes you want to make. Touch for Health is based on a model of self-responsibility, so it is your choice if you continue to take the substance once you are aware of your bodies reaction.
