OPTIMUM HEALTH BALANCE

Kinesiology for all

Optimum Health Balance is a style of Kinesiology that was developed by Charles Benham.  Based in the UK, Charles was a leading pioneer of kinesiology in the UK after becoming involved with it in 1979.  Over the years he studied, practised and trained in a wide range of disciplines in a quest to simplify all the various healing methods and techniques he studied and integrate them into one simplified system.  The result of that work is Optimum Health Balance which is a gentle but extremely effective healing technique.

The basis of the system is the acknowledgement that the human body in inherently intelligent and will for most of the time look after itself without difficult. On those occasions when it need additional support, Optimum Health taps into this inherent intelligent so that we are able to

"help the body to heal itself"

OHB combines the standard 'muscle testing' approach that is used by all forms of Kinesiology. Briefly the muscle that is being tested can be either be working correctly and remains strong under test or it does not. Over the years Kinesiologist have discovered that all sorts of things can effect or interfere with the working of a muscle. We call this challenging the muscle. It is this strong-not strong response - along with OHB's 'numerical symbols' as the challenge - which allows the practitioner to 'ask' the body what is going on in its various systems and to identify and uncover the imbalances that the person has.

Once this analysis has been completed, the body is can be asked what is the optimum treatment needed to help the body re-integrate itself. Again this selection is done using muscle response.

Optimum Health can be used to treat almost any issue that the person has - assuming that the person's body will give a muscle response. It has been used to treat successfully the following:

• Pain associated with skeletal and muscular problems, such as Migraine, Neck and shoulder pain, hernia, pelvic pain, sciatica, and so on.

• Chemical imbalances affecting the skin, hormone levels, brain and blood chemistry, bacterial and viral infections.

• Dietary issues such as food intolerances, weight control, addictions and diet regimes.

• Digestive problems, colitis, diverticulitis and irritable bowel syndrome.

• Emotional issues such as fear, anxiety, panic, phobia.

• Imbalances due to Geopathic, Cosmic or Electromagnetic stress.

WHAT HAPPENS IN A BALANCE

The aim of OHB is to enable the client to achieve a state of optimum health that helps the individual overcome any problems that are causing distress. The purpose is to raise the person’s energy to the highest level possible at the time of the balance. OHB is a gentle, non-invasive technique that is guided by the person's body.

The treatment is carried out through normal clothing with the client lying on their back in a relaxed manner. The practitioner then tests the muscles of the arms - and less often the legs - using a gentle pressure.

Using muscle testing the various imbalances that the body can reveal, the practitioner can then address any specific areas that the person wishes to work on specifically.

After this, the therapist can then balance the individual to their Optimum Health level. In Optimum Health Balance, harmony is typically restored by using light hand contact, working on or off the body. This treatment works by channelling the Universal Energy and is a very gentle process. In some cases, it might be necessary to use traditional Kinesiology correction which are more physical in its orientation.

Once the treatment has been completed, the OHB practitioner then re-checks all the issues that has been reveal during the analysis stage of the Optimum Health Balance. This is to make sure that all the imbalances have been properly addressed during the treatment stage of the Optimum Health Balance.

Personal comment on OHB

"Back in 1995 I visited Charles for the first time in High Wycombe, with some experience of kinesiology in the form of Touch For Health. As Touch For Health is derived from the work of chiropractors in the United States, I was expecting a fairly physical treatment - what a surprise I had coming.

I went to see him to prepare for an ear operation which was scheduled for a few days after seeing Charles. I wanted the best outcome and recovery from surgery. The operation was for the reconstruction of the middle ear and outer ear-drum. This would, hopefully, stop the ear infections I was getting, sometimes 5 or 6 times a year. I had tried just about every possible therapy to try to sort out this problem or - at least - to find out what was causing it. Nothing helped.

At the end of the Optimum Health Balance, I certainly felt energised and ask Charles, in passing,  if he thought my ear infections and associated discharge was to do with mercury in my teeth.

"I have no idea" he replied, "lets ask your body". At which point, through 'muscle response' he was able to say that my body did not have a problem with the mercury. After some further querying Charles was able to say that the problem was caused by the presence of two different metals in my mouth - mercury and gold - that was producing a battery effect. This battery in my mouth, was sending a current up a nerve which runs along the side of the tongue and passes close to the middle ear. It seems that the body was interpreting this nerve signal as an ear inflection and was producing a discharge in the ear to try to stop the infection.

Being trained as a scientist, when I got home I dug out my digital voltmeter and measured the voltages on the filings in my mouth. Sure enough I discovered that there was a small battery producing about half a volt!

As the operation was not critical, I decided to postponed the operation and to have the offending mercury fillings removed. What a difference. Once the mercury filings were replaced with a non-metal filing, the ear stopped discharging - this is still the case some 5 years later. It was also significant that immediately after the filing was removed, I got the sense that a heavy brick had taken from my mouth, rather than this tiny filling!

Obviously I was impressed enough that I became an OHB practitioner. It is a wonderful therapy as it is a gentle but very powerful therapy. Only by trying it can you begin to understand what benefits it can bring you."
