Why does BodyTalk work?

BodyTalk is based on the principle that the body is capable of healing itself at all levels – as evidenced by the natural healing process that occurs automatically when we cut our finger or twist our ankle.

Stress, the number one cause of disease on the world, can cause breakdowns in the body’s natural ability to effectively communicate with and regulate all of the systems and processes that occur within our bodies moment to moment. This leads to injury and illness, physically, emotionally and mentally.

BodyTalk identifies these breakdowns and assists your body, the most effective physician around, to correct them.

In essence, The BodyTalk System helps the body to heal itself.

How does BodyTalk work?

BodyTalk assists your body to create the best possible health for you by being the first system of health care to effectively bridge the gap between the science and effectiveness of western medicine and complementary therapies.

The BodyTalk System accomplishes this by integrating the techniques and findings of many systems of health care including, modern medical expertise, Acupuncture, Psychology, Applied Kinesiology, Ayurvedic medicine, Osteopathy and Chiropractic and more.

What will happen during a BodyTalk treatment?

You will remain fully clothed, whilst lying on a treatment table. Sessions usually last 40 – 60 mins and every session is unique for each client, based on their body’s own priorities, so it is truly tailor-made.

All sessions are confidential and BodyTalk does not diagnose anything, so there's no need to worry about what might come up during a session. Only the issues your body is ready to deal with will come up as a priority.

BodyTalk uses a technique called neuromuscular biofeedback (muscle checking), that uses the arm to establish a Yes/No communication with your body.

Using a protocol chart, the practitioner will ask your body a series of questions to identify what is a priority for you at that time. When we have established what parts of your body need to be re-synchronised, a series of simple techniques and light tapping are used to restore communication within the body so it can heal and fix itself.

BodyTalk effectively helps in these situations because your body knows what is wrong and how to treat it. The treatment will stimulate your body to address what it knows is wrong.

Just as your body decides how and what will be addressed, your body will dictate when the treatment is complete and establish the best time for any follow up treatment, be it a follow-up session or a consultation with your GP.

Do I need to prepare for a BodyTalk Treatment?

BodyTalk requires no special preparation or equipment. Clients are asked to wear loose, comfortable clothing.

What will I feel after the BodyTalk treatment?   

Clients often report feeling a deep sense of relaxation and release; “like a weight has been lifted”. Sometimes in this state one can experience an emotional release that can be very powerful. Most report feeling rejuvenated, reconnected and free often with resolution of the symptoms that they came in with. Some might feel tired as once the stress of the thinking mind’s “do to list” is energetically released they are reconnected to the callings of their body for rest and relaxation. The experiences are wide and endless and unique to you. As you experience an increase in your wellness and self-empowerment, you can expect a reduction in symptoms, thus less frequent treatments, as we establish long lasting and ongoing patterns of good health.

The steady and cumulative improvements in all aspects of health are readily apparent to our clients as well as their friends, family and co-workers.

Will my condition get better?

As a Certified BodyTalk Practitioner, I have routinely seen most conditions experience significant improvements within 3-5 visits when treated with The BodyTalk System.

What do you mean by ‘Self-Empowerment?’

The BodyTalk System has established itself as a very powerful tool in the field of personal development, effectively addressing the causative factors behind low self-esteem and self-confidence. Biochemical, physiological and emotional upsets are concurrently addressed with the beliefs and attitudes that gave rise to the upsets in the first place.
