The Touch for Health curriculum is a “hands on” sixty hour four weekend certification training for developing touch biofeedback skills and learning techniques for correcting subtle imbalances that can have profound and immediate effects on physical, emotional, cognitive and even spiritual wellbeing. You will learn skills to balance Posture, Attitude and Energy for Positive Life Goals. These techniques have been compiled from many traditional and modern sources, from both East and West, and have been used in this form for an unknowable number of Energy Balances (probably tens of millions) world wide for at least 50 years. Using these techniques with friends, family and/or clients you can help yourself and the people in your life feel good more of the time and heal more comfortably and quickly. The four weekends are broken into two modules. Touch for Health is widely recommended as a comprehensive introduction to learning the skillful art and subtleties of muscle testing. It is related to the origin and provides source material for most Specialized and Energy Kinesiology modalities, such as Brain Gym, LEAP, BIT, Professional Kinesiology (PKP), and Applied Kinesiology (AP). This course is a pre-requisite for many Specialized Kinesiology trainings, for example Crossinology Brain Integration Technique (BIT), and the courses count towards certification as a Specialized Kinesiologist by the Energy Kinesiology Association.

Descriptions:
Touch For Health 1
Touch for Health 1 is primarily concerned with the fundamentals of muscle testing and with techniques that can help to organize structure more functionally effectively as specific neuro-muscular isses are revealed. This method of working with imbalances is known as “The Open Balance”, or “Fix As You Go Balance”. Open balance methods are very effective when incorporated into other modalities, or for corrections on the fly, in essence an energy medicine first aid kit. Once you understand the fundamentals of Touch For Health, it is a snap to flip open the manual to the relevant section and access many different therapeutic options with proven efficacy for the finding. This makes the manual a very useful desktop tool for therapists of all stripes, as well as handy as Band-Aids to have around the house.
The material we cover in this weekend is predominantly in the first part of the manual, pages 1 – 85 and additionally includes the first muscle in each meridian section.
Touch for Health 2
Touch for Health 2 is primarily oriented to finding a specfic correction which will balance globally. This is often referred to as a “One Point Balance”, or a “Closed Balance”. Finding the key foci for balancing has several things going for it. Whereas in the Open Balance, we are primarily concerned with remediating the symptom, here we are on the hunt for root causes from which symptoms emanate. Additionally we can employ the full power of the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) aspects of Touch for Health (TFH). One aspect of TCM which has emphasis in TFH is Metaphor. Isolating the nature of the imbalance to a specific energetic zone, one of the 14 classified in TCM, enables bringing Metaphors specific to that zone into the balance, which engages the conscious mind in addition to the non-conscious functions which we have accessed through muscle testing.
Another attribute is Goal Setting. In setting a goal or intention, we can focus on the energetic organization of our being as it relates to that intention. Bringing better balance to that energetic organization strengthens our intention. With a Closed Balance, we can move beyond treating physical symptoms into a much broader potential for supporting change and healing.
We will also learn 14 additional muscle tests, which gives us a tool to delve more deeply into a zone of interest. In TFH 3 and 4 we will learn another 14 muscle test, which enables us to explore to the full extent of the model how an energetic imbalance expresses in a specific zone or zones.
