How you can help your kidneys and adrenals
Tap your K1 and K27 points – The K1 point is the
start point of the kidney meridian and is situated
just below the ball of the foot on both sides. If you
bunch your fingers together and tap or gently
massage this area you will hit the point. In Traditional
Chinese Medicine this point is called the “wellspring
of life” point because it is considered so potent at
balancing not only kidney energy but enhancing
general vitality and well-being.
The K27 point is the end-point of the kidney
meridian. The K27s are located on each side of the
body, just below your clavicle, you will feel a slight
dip/indent. If you bunch your fingers together and
tap this area it will help to energise the kidney
meridian.
Drink beetroot juice – Beetroot is a wonderful kidney
tonic either eaten raw or as a juice, it will really
benefit the kidneys. Buckwheat, beans, brown rice
Ledbury Focus
and sea vegetables are also excellent kidney foods.
Keep hydrated – when we are dehydrated the kidneys
don’t function as well as they should but do not over
hydrate the body otherwise the kidneys will have to
work much harder.
Book a Bowen treatment – In Bowen we have a
specific procedure that can address the kidneys and
adrenals. This procedure works at a physical level to
address problems in these areas but also at a subtle
level addressing the kidney meridian. In practice, I
use this procedure for a multitude of symptoms
including; back problems, adrenal exhaustion, fatigue,
ME, specific kidney related problems i.e. infections,
bladder problems, Incontinence, oedema, dizziness,
lymphatic blockage, fear/fright, arthritic conditions
and on occasion knee problems.
Book a Health Kinesiology treatment – Health
Kinesiology (HK) is an holistic therapy that is
concerned with balancing the body and energy
systems. Health Kinesiology communicates with
your body by using a technique called muscle
testing which helps reveal where there is imbalance
and identifies how balance can be restored. In a HK
session I may work to identify allergies, or chemical
imbalance, release psychological or emotional stress,
re-balance meridians and chakras or other parts of
your energy system, and advise on nutrition or other
lifestyle issues.
Book a place on my Wellness Workshop – in my
Wellness Workshop I teach many techniques that
can be used to help balance the body and it’s many
energy systems. You will come away with several
tools & techniques that can be used quickly on a
daily basis to influence health and well-being. My
next workshop will take place in February 2020.
