What is the BodyTalk System?
BodyTalk is a highly effective system of accessing
the body’s innate wisdom to heal itself. It does this through reestablishing
or enhancing communication between all aspects of the body/mind complex
in order of priority, resulting in healing from the inside out.
The body is a complex organism performing billions of synchronized
biochemical processes every second to maintain proper functioning.
When a body is operating at its best, each system, organ and body part,
down to the cellular level are in constant communication with one another
at all times.
Through exposure to the stresses of day-to-day life, environmental
influences, accidents, trauma, diet and other factors, these lines
of communication can become compromised which then leads to a decline
in physical, emotional and/or mental health.
Reconnecting these lines of communication then enables the body's
mechanisms to function at optimal levels, thus preventing disease and
rapidly accelerating the healing process.
BodyTalk can be used as a stand-alone system to treat many health
problems, or seamlessly integrated into any health care system to increase
its effectiveness and promote faster healing. BodyTalk’s major
assets are that it’s safe, effective and non-invasive.
How does it work?
The body has built-in mechanisms to initiate the healing process. If
we cut ourselves, the body immediately sets up a process to start healing
the wound. This occurs at several levels - physical, emotional, and mental.
Although this is obvious to every one of us, most people do not fully
realize just how wonderful the human healing mechanism actually is.
The BodyTalk System® facilitates communication with the innate
wisdom of the body by using neuromuscular feedback. By following
a comprehensive protocol of questions, the BodyTalk practitioner
can establish exactly what
balancing the body needs and in which order of priority to harmonize
bodymind function.
The client and/or practitioner touch the parts that need correcting
and the practitioner then gently taps the head of the client in order
to focus the brain toward repair. Experiments with biofeedback apparatus
show that when this tapping occurs while specific parts are being touched
there is a major increase in brain activity in relation to those parts.
The practitioner then lightly taps the chest to store the changes
in the heart energy complex, which ensures that the new balance is
held in deep memory and is, therefore, lasting.
Clinical results have shown that once the communications systems
of the body have been reestablished and the bodymind complex synchronized,
the body is capable of healing itself at a deep and lasting level.
Most clients immediately notice a greater sense of well-being
and relaxation after the treatment. They feel more at peace with themselves
and often report sleeping better, having more energy and feeling more
balanced.
