The Physiospect – What is it?

For some readers ‘The Physiospect’ may sound like a great sci-fi movie. However, in actual fact it’s a state-of-the-art diagnostic device which was originally developed by Russian scientists whose focus was to create a type of “cellular communicator” able to read the human body – independently of another person’s subjectivity.

The Physiospect equipment is quite unique and has no similarity in the world. It is based on the spectral analysis of vortex magnetic fields of biological organisms. It determines the frequency pattern of each cell tissue and organ in the body, i.e. similar to the way in which a radio tunes into a particular frequency. The device recognises that each organ “tunes” to a specific frequency and can determine when the organ is functioning harmonically, or is slightly out of tune, or not functioning optimally. The healthier the area being examined, the more stable its frequency pattern will be.

What are the Benefits of Chiropractic Care during pregnancy?

Chiropractic therapy is a non-invasive technique to realign joints of the body to reduce spinal nerve stress and optimise health and wellbeing. In other words, a “healthy spine = healthy nervous system = healthy body working at its full potential.”

The nervous system is the master communication system to all the body systems including the reproductive system. During pregnancy, the mother experiences physiological and hormonal changes as it prepares for the developing baby. Therefore, caring for the spine grows in importance during pregnancy, particularly the pelvis and spine.
During pregnancy, when your baby grows and becomes heavier, the centre of gravity shifts and your posture changes. As your abdomen protrudes the curve in your back increases, along with pelvic alignment changes.

Free Scoliosis Screenings

Scoliosis means “curvature of the spine”. It is commonly first noticed in childhood or adolescence, and the curve often progresses rapidly as the child grows. If left untreated it can lead to severe spinal deformity, cronic pain and early spinal degeneration. Early detection and treatment leads to better long term results. As a community service we

Is your body possibly feeling the effects of unresolved trauma?

What is NET – Neuro Emotional Technique

Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) is a holistic mind-body treatment developed by Dr Scott Walker DC. used to locate and remove neurological imbalances linked to unresolved emotions such as anger, grief and fear. When our response system is overwhelmed, and our body remains tense and contracted this tension gets trapped in our body. When untreated these imbalances affect our physical and mental wellbeing and can be the catalyst for disease.

How does NET work?

NET uses a method of locating and eliminating neurological imbalances related to the physical effect of unresolved trauma. The goal is to correct the neuro emotional complex (NEC) – i.e. the imprinted emotional data affecting physiological function. This stress reduction technique is non-invasive and doesn’t require counselling or psychanalysis.

Do you suffer from headaches or know someone who does?

The head is the most common area of pain in the body, causing throbbing, squeezing, unrelenting or intermittent pain in the head, face or neck area.

In the western world, the standard model for treating headaches is often a symptomatic ‘band-aid’ approach including painkillers and anti-inflammatories. These can certainly be beneficial, however, for long-term relief and wellness it’s vitally important to locate the root cause, and this is what our dedicated team at Empowering Wellness are passionate about.

Like any pain in the body, a headache is a symptom that something isn’t right. There are two main categories:

a) Primary Headaches – tension-type headaches and migraines that occur mainly as symptoms of stress, eye strain, poor posture, dehydration, hangover, lack of sleep, etc.

b) Secondary Headaches – are caused by some underlying health condition such as the flu, sinusitis, allergies; or another symptom caused by medication effects, illness, head injury, trauma or disease.

Is your body trying to tell you something? Kinesiology Therapy has the answer!

Is your body trying to tell you something? Kinesiology Therapy has the answer!
Have you been feeling out of sorts lately? Do you lack energy or motivation to get up in the morning, have difficulty focusing on the task at hand or suffer from aches and pains? Chances are your body is telling you something is out of kilter and needs rebalancing. Kinesiology Therapy could be just the answer.

Let’s look at what Kinesiology is, how it works and what it can do for you.

Kinesiology originally derived from the work of Dr. George Goodheart D.C. and is recognised as one of the new frontier therapies of Natural Medicine. It’s used as a way of assessing function and subsequent imbalances in the human mind/body complex.

The four key health areas in our body include emotional, nutritional, structural and energetic health. Kinesiology encompasses the relationship between muscle/organs and the interaction of neural sensors, lymphatic reflexes, acupuncture meridians and circulatory factors and emotional states.

How to achieve Structural, Emotional and Chemical balance

We live in an environment that challenges us health wise on a daily basis. If we imagine that our health can be represented by a triangle, then this stable structure is the foundation of good health. Each side represents a major component. I.e. STRUCTURAL, CHEMICAL and EMOTIONAL. When we change anyone of these components not only will our health be affected directly, but also the other two sides are affected in some way. This leads to dis-ease or lack of ease and balance within our bodies.

By using this model at Empowering Wellness Burleigh Heads we can help you to identify the underlying cause or causes of your health challenges, create a plan of how to correct them, and ultimately restore you to a state of wellness, and not merely mask or eliminate symptoms.

Let’s look at each component in more detail.

What do you know about Subluxation? We can help!

Firstly, let’s look at the relationship between the spine and the nervous system. The nervous system connects the brain to the body and the body to the brain which allows your body to maintain a healthy state. The health of this system is vital to optimum body function and wellness.

Subluxation – What is it?

The two-way communication between the body and brain is interrupted when subluxation occurs, i.e. one of the vertebrae in your spine moves out of alignment, and/or movement patterns of the vertebrae are abnormal creating pressure and stress on the spinal nerves, blood vessels, and surrounding muscles. This can cause an imbalance in the body’s normal processes because the nerves in the spinal column extend to the entire body and its organs. If the subluxation is not corrected, over time the nerve damage gets progressively worse and different stages of subluxation degeneration set in.
