Holistic Kinesiology
Kinesiology is a complementary medicine and its about stress release!
Less stress = a healthier body on every level!
Holistic kinesiology has developed into a dynamic practice which combines chiropractic kinesiology (muscle monitering to assess muscle mobility and strength) and Traditional Chinese Medicine, (TCM), which views the body as an entwined entity in which all systems are interconnected. When the systems of the body are in balance the body functions as a healthy unit.
Muscle monitoring enables the practitioner to determine where stress is impacting on the body; be it physical, mental, emotional, chemical, environmental or behavioural and then in turn employ the most relevant technique to relieve that stress and create balance within the body.
If your body is balanced, you can experience calmness, joy, and confidence, allowing the body its best possible chance for health.

Testimonials
" I am writing to both thank you and endorse what i have received as a client of yours in your practice as a remedial massage therapist.
Since the commencement of regular theraputic massage at your handsi have had no migranes of which i had been having several times a month. Your strengths and main assets as a practitioner are your ability to diagnose the predominant problems and effectively treat the area. Even after 1 session i had increased ease and efficiency of movement and felt muscle function had improved. No debilitating migraines since commencing regular massage sessions are proof in itself. I have tried the skills of many remedial massage therapists and practitioners and am sorry that my moving will mean i am no longer able to utilise your services. Your professional ability, warmth and friendliness of personality as i know it in your practice will be difficult to replace.
Best wishes and many grateful thank you's for returning Saturday's back to a day of relaxed ability do do whatever is fanciable!"-

" Jo Callender has been my massage therapist for almost 5 years. I have a regular appointment with jo once every 3 weeks and i have always been satisfied with her treatment. She has treated me for both remedial massage and for lymphatic drainage during that time.
Jo's personal approach is empathic and compassionate and her massage approach is confident and solution based. She listens to her patients and is sensitive to those times when peace and quiet is required and also to those times when an understanding ear is required.
Whilst i am sure i could find a massage therapist who is closer to home i choose to take the 1 hour round trip to continue to see jo"

I was referred to Joanne Callender for Lymphatic Drainage Therapy after breast cancer surgery 5 years ago. I have continued to have regular deep tissue massage for Fibromyalgia, a painful condition that joanne has helped me manage. Joanne has a strong understanding of her patients individual needs and continues her study on other aspects of Remedial Health.
I can recommend Joanne to anyone who needs massage therapy at its best"

About Jo Callender

Jo Callender has worked in the natural therapies industry for the last 10 years. Prior to this Jo was the primary care taker for 2 young children. When working became a viable option again, there was much to consider; not wanting to go back into the corporporate world where juggling kids, sydney traffic and 'too many politics' was an unattractive option; quality of life had became the priority! and she made the decision to re educate and start a whole new career!! This new career to had serve a number of purposes; a balance between work and home life, & a career which inspired her to start each day with energy, entusiasm and passion.
A double Diploma in remedial massage and lymphatic drainage initially met that challenge. After years of witnessing the correlation between peoples life experiences and stress, body pain & joint stiffness which promotes inflexibility, jo was motivated to explore further aspects of holistic healing & began a Health Science Degree in complementary medicine; majoring in Holistic Kinesiology.
Holistic Kinesiology is an an energetic healing practice using techniques to release or unblock 'stuck' energy in the meridians or chanels within the body; giving the body it's greatest opportunity to heal itself.
Further studies include Dry Needling, a painless but incredibly effective method of releaseing trigger points within the body; again, stimulating the bodies own capacity to reduce or eliviate pain, & increase mobility of joints & full function of muscles.
