Kinergetics is one of the powerful New Healing Frequencies that have been introduced and developed on the planet within the last 20 years. Through the vehicle of manual muscle testing, both client and pracitioner get immediate bio-feedback as to existing stresses in the client's body/energy system, as well as where in the body and for how long the application of Healing energy is required; and confirmation of the change through post-correction muscle testing.   Units 1 & 2 were held in April and we have Kinergetics Unit 3 coming up on 5 & 6 May (Sat/Sun).  Following this our next scheduled Kinergetics training is with the developer of this fascinating system, Philip Rafferty, who is coming to NZ in late November to teach Kinergetics Unit 4 and Kinergetics Master Class.  Master class is where he presents his latest research - guaranteed to impress!!!

 

 

Touch for Health 3 (May 19 & 20) and Touch for Health 4 ( June 2 & 3) are the more advanced levels of trainings in the Touch for Health synthesis.  One of the topics covered in TFH 3 is Reactive Muscles - this is an area that Richard Rust, the tutor, has developed a great deal of skill and experience which means the students will have lots of fun learning all about Reactive Muscles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bowen Therapeutic Technique (Bowtech ... the Original Bowen Technique) developed by Tom Bowen in Australia in the 1950's, 60's & 70's.  Tom Bowen evolved this unique system of soft tissue manipulation procedures; for which he had a vision to be available for anyone to learn, so that all humanity could benefit from the powerful healing it stimulates!  There is also a 4 day Bowen Foundation Course available. Both intakes start 13 May (Sun). This modality is remarkable! Registrations essential.
