Crystal Healing - is a form of healing that uses crystals or gemstones. The crystals are mainly placed on specific areas of the body called "chakras," seven basic energy centers in the body, each having a color associated with it.

Crystals are said to direct the flow of energy to the person in a particular part of the body and bring balance to a person's energy.

Kinesiology / Applied Kinesiology - Kinesiology is the study of muscles and their movements. Applied Kinesiology is a system that uses muscle testing procedures, in conjunction with standard methods of diagnosis, to gain information about a patient's overall state of health. Practitioners analyze muscle function, posture, gait, and other structural factors in addition to inquiring about lifestyle factors that may be contributing to a health- related problem. Nutritional supplements, muscle and joint manipulation, and lifestyle modification (including diet and exercise) may then be used as part of a treatment plan.
