What is Touch for Health Kinesiology?

Touch for Health is the most popular Kinesiology in the world.

As a non-medical approach to wellbeing, it is a system that uses manual muscle bio-feedback to determine where there are physical, emotional, nutritional or energetic stresses and what can be done to alleviate them.

Within the framework of the Self-Responsibility Model and Educational Model, TFH gently balances energy to enhance and optimise potential. Using gentle but highly effective techniques, TFH is acclaimed for helping to reduce pain, improve posture, alleviate stress, reach goals and maintain health.

TFH is well known as a wonderful way to help ourselves, our friends and family or for anyone wishing to become a professional practitioner.

Sandy Gannon, former president of the International Kinesiology College, talks about Touch for Health.

 
I treasure the Touch for Health Synthesis. I see it as a candle lighting the way for others to improve health and living. I believe each of us holds a candle, perhaps as yet unlit, that can serve to safely guide those we cherish toward a more abundant life.
— Dr John Thie

History of Touch for Health

In the 1960s, Dr John Thie, was a highly successful chiropractor working in California. He began to work with Dr George Goodheart who had begun to use an amazing new modality known as Kinesiology. Dr Thie soon realised that this was a system that could be used by anyone, not just the medically trained.

And so Touch for Health was born. Today millions of people in over 60 countries around the world have learnt Touch for Health and use it to help themselves and others.

In 1990, Dr Thie gifted the Touch for Health Synthesis to the International Kinesiology College (IKC) which remains custodians of his work to this day.
