I’ve been meaning to post about this very interesting alternative form of healing for ages… It took me a while to understand how it works and how it could help but after Katja’s last talk at IMSG Puxi I think I have the hang of it and find it fascinating.
Katja is a wonderful smily person and as a mother herself understands the challenges of bringing up a little person, she is a certified Kinesiologist and Life-Coach.
Katja practices here in Shanghai and with her work helps others find the answers and causes to problems. Seems like the answers are all hidden in our bodies just takes the know how to find where they are hiding.
For more on kinesiology go here.
Below I am copying Katja’s flyer as this can give a better intro to her work with babies and mothers and mothers-to-be.
Integrative Kinesiology and Life-Coaching
Maybe you would like to free yourself from heavy “baggage”?
Maybe your baby or toddler is excessively crying and you don’t know why?
Maybe your child shows other “strange” symptoms no-one can understand?
Maybe you are pregnant and you are scared of what’s coming?
Maybe you wish being able to deeply relax and find inner peace?
Maybe you just want to feel better?
The Kinesiology muscle-test helps to uncover, recognise and heal mental blocks and problems occurring in all parts of your life.
The results are astonishing, because of going deep in the unconscious level.
Some examples where integrative Kinesiology can help:
Shorten the recovery time after surgery
Chronic and psychosomatic illnesses
Psychological and emotional problems:
• Burn-out syndrome
• Relationship problems
• All sorts of issues related to family, sexuality, profession, identity…
• Recurring feelings like anxiety, melancholy, anger and loneliness
• Support throughout difficult times and conflict situations
• Support in taking decisions
• Weight problems, eating disorders and other addictions
Babies, Toddlers and older children

This is a great online forum to get quick and up to date information from the Shanghai community of mothers. My blog is not linked to this group and I know a lot of people get us confused because of the similar name… my bad.. I didn’t discover the group until after I started this blog. I know they were also working on a website so check that out too. It’s a members only forum so you need to go to the yahoo group link and register.
