Kinesiology is close to my heart because it perfectly combines my love of science with the Filipino gift of pakiramdam – the art of deep sensing and intuitive listening.

The word kinesiology means “study of movement,” and there’s something beautiful about that, because when we truly listen, we often discover how our feelings and experiences move through us, creating patterns and tensions that shape how we feel in our bodies and in our lives.

​​

It’s an invitation to tune into how your body and mind are working together, and how they’re trying to tell you something important. Sometimes, these messages come from places deeper than words, physical tension, emotional blocks, or shifts that affect your whole being.

​

Through gentle muscle monitoring, I create a conversation with your body’s wisdom. It’s a non-intrusive way of tuning into what’s happening beneath the surface, those patterns of stress, tension, or imbalance that might be affecting how you feel. You don’t need to have all the answers or figure everything out beforehand; I simply listen to what your body is ready to share and work together with you to support whatever shifts want to happen naturally.

​

This approach also draws from pakiramdam – the Filipino practice of sensing with your whole being, not just your mind. Growing up in the Philippines taught me that true understanding comes from feeling into a situation with all of yourself, and this cultural wisdom guides how I tune in to what your body is communicating.

How does a session work?

I start by exploring what has brought you here and what you would like to shift. Through thoughtful questions, I help uncover the beliefs or attitudes that might be keeping you stuck. These conversations can be confronting at times, but they’re designed to get to the heart of what’s really going on.

​

Depending on what you’re experiencing, I might do assessments of your posture, primitive reflexes, or brain function to understand what’s happening in your system. Then you’ll lie down comfortably while I use gentle muscle monitoring to tune into where your body might be holding stress or imbalance.

​

From there, I work with gentle corrections and balancing techniques to support your body’s natural process, checking in with you throughout. I might offer suggestions for exercises or reflections between sessions, and many people return for a few sessions as things continue to shift and integrate.

​

Together, we will listen to your body’s wisdom and honour what’s ready to be acknowledged. True to the spirit of kapwa – the Filipino understanding that we’re all interconnected – your wellbeing becomes part of our shared journey. I work with what’s present, gently, with kindness and without judgement, helping you step forward with greater clarity and peace.

Working together with your healthcare team

Kinesiology is a complementary therapy that supports your body’s natural processes, but it doesn’t replace medical diagnosis or treatment. For serious health concerns, I always encourage you to stay connected with your GP or relevant medical specialists.

​

I’m happy to work alongside your other practitioners when it supports your wellbeing, and I can communicate with them (with your permission) to ensure you’re getting the best possible care for your journey.

Frequently asked questions

Is kinesiology safe for kids and elderly family members?

Absolutely! I love working with all ages, tailoring everything to what feels right for you or your family.

 

How long is a session?

Usually about 90 minutes. This gives us plenty of time to really tune in, work gently with your body and energy, and let things unfold naturally without feeling rushed.

 

How often should I come?

That’s completely up to you and what I’m working on with you. Some people notice changes after a session or two, while others find ongoing sessions helpful for deeper shifts.

 

What will I feel during a session?

Everyone’s experience is different. Some people feel deeply relaxed, others notice subtle shifts or gentle releases. You might feel emotional, peaceful, or simply curious about what’s unfolding.Whatever you experience is perfect.

 

Do I need to prepare?

Just come as you are - wear something comfortable, and bring an open mind and heart. Before your first session, I’ll send you a questionnaire to fill out about any symptoms, health conditions, stress levels, pain levels, and fatigue you might be experiencing. This helps me gain a deeper understanding of what’s happening with your body so we can make the most of our time together.

 

What if nothing happens or I don’t feel different?

Sometimes the shifts are subtle or happen gradually over the days following a session. Your body works in its own time, and that’s completely okay. I can always explore what feels most supportive for you.What about privacy?Everything I talk about with you stays between us unless there’s a concern for anyone’s safety, which I’m required to address. I’ll always be transparent about that.

 

I’m curious but not sure if it’s for me - what now?

That’s completely okay. In the spirit of kapwa, I believe the right support finds you when you’re ready. Feel free to reach out for a chat to see if kinesiology feels like a good fit.
