The Hale TechniqueAt Integrated Health Care we care about your good health. We focus on your ongoing wellness as well as providing treatment for illness.
We are licensed Chiropractors, but as a result of our training in Applied Kinesiology and our clinical experience, over the years our technique and methods have advanced to the specialised treatment we now provide.
As Chiropractors our attention was traditionally focused solely on the protection and function of the Central Nervous System, the skull and vertebrae (spine), which houses the brain, spinal cord and nerves. Physical manipulation or spinal adjustment were the main therapies administered in treatment.
Over the last 20 years Dr Bryan Hale has development a more comprehensive therapeutic and holistic approach. It involves gentle Chiropractic Techniques, Acupressure, Homeopathic and Nutritional therapies and an understanding of the fundamental relationship between mind, body and emotions. Under this approach Applied Kinesiology (specific muscle testing), is used as a communication system to ask the body questions to which it can give a positive or negative response.
Traditionally, healing has centred around the body as if it was somehow separate from our minds and our emotions. However, as humans we are not just a body with a thinking brain, but a complex miraculous evolving being with feelings (emotions).
Therefore, we find treatments are more effective and lasting if we treat you as a whole person, by integrating the three levels as set out;
Physical Body – “I am”
The skull and vertebrae can be likened to the fuse box in a house. If there is a problem somewhere in the body the Central Nervous System ( CNS ) – central control, knows about it and as a response sets up reflexes (subluxations) to increase energy in one area and decrease energy in another. When the body “is overloaded” this leads to pain in the head, shoulders, neck, low back, chest, abdomen and pelvic region. Rather than use what we believe is a quick fix by taking only a physical approach, we look for a probable CAUSE, ie firstly why the reflex occurred and secondly what is preventing the body from healing itself and returning to optimum health.
Emotional System – “ I Feel”
Life experience, your culture and family unit all have an effect on how we learn to express our emotions. As the Immune and Emotional systems seems to be so closely linked this may explain why we experience some types of illnesses and symptoms when stress is involved. In chronic health conditions, this system is the key to regaining optimum health.
Mental System
The mental system is the most powerful. The mind can overrule all other systems and gets us through major events and stress in our lives. We find however that it is when the mind slows and stops driving us, that the body and emotions kick in ( e.g when we relax, rest, retire, sleep or go on holiday), and as a result most symptoms or health problems appear at the time, as your emotional and physical levels are now able to express themselves.
Some examples are Grief, Anxiety, Trust etc. “I think” I should trust this person or process but “I have a feeling” it’s not right.
What do we do and how does the treatment work?
Using muscle testing we ask questions of these 3 individual systems as to how they function and inter-react with one another.
This testing is performed by exposing the body and head to various “challenges”, reflexes and frequencies and observing the response (ie positive or negative).
Taking any negative response we can “neutralise” or cancel it with specific combinations of Homeopathic Remedies, Chiropractic Techniques and Reflexes. These techniques collectively produce a response back to the body and cancel out the body’s negative response. This helps your body to identify the problem and promote its own healing ability.
Over a series of treatments, your body mind and emotions begin to move towards a state of holistic wellness. This should enhance your quality of life, decrease your symptoms and anxieties, improve your sleep, strengthen your immune system and help you develop and grow mentally, emotionally and physically for a better quality of life in the future.
Your mind and emotions heal faster than your physical symptoms.
We assist you to become the Director of your own life and health. As practitioners we can help you but you have to be willing and responsible to move on and make changes. These changes may be in your attitudes, lifestyle, habits, diet, exercise etc.
Nutritional supplements and homeopathic remedies may be advised at times to assist your recovery and health maintenance.
Our research and methods are constantly evolving and improving as to should your health. We therefore suggest that in order to maintain optimum health you follow your maintenance programme of 3 or 6 monthly interval visits. This formula has been worked out to be predictably accurate from observations and patient result over 30+ years of clinical practice.
