What Is BodyTalk?
|
|
BodyTalk makes use of your body's own healing ability to create change in your life and health. Your body's healing ability depends on countless lines of communication in the body at many different levels including nerves, energy meridians, hormones, and chakras just to name a few. Any form of stress whether physical, mental, emotional or in some other form can create interruptions within the inherent communication in your body. These interruptions in communication reduce the body's ability to recognize and properly heal illness, injury or disease. BodyTalk restores the lines of communication, therefore renewing and strengthening your body's natural ability to heal itself.
The History
The BodyTalk System was created by Dr. John Veltheim, an Australian chiropractor, acupuncturist, philosopher, and author. He ran a successful clinic for 15 years, served as the former Principal of the Brisbane College of Acupuncture and Natural Therapies for 5 years, and has extensive training in natural healing including applied kinesiology, bio-energetic psychology, osteopathy, sports medicine, counselling, and comparative philosophy and theology.
While experiencing his own health crisis, Dr. Veltheim discovered the incredible effectiveness of tapping. In the 1990s, he combined the tapping technique with much of his healing knowledge and his studies in consciousness and quantum physics to create BodyTalk. For over 20 years, BodyTalk has been growing in popularity and is now being taught in over 30 countries around the world.

Side Effects
BodyTalk sessions are safe as they create changes at an energy level based on what your body is ready to change, and generally do not involve any physical manipulation (unless the practitioner is otherwise trained to do so). Any side effects are generally mild and short-lasting, and not created by the BodyTalk session but by what the body is able to heal due to the BodyTalk session. For example, if a BodyTalk session helps your body better recognize a microbe such as a virus, you may develop flu-like symptoms to effectively fight the virus. Other typical symptoms may include increased thirst or minor changes in digestive function. Your practitioner will warn you of any possible side effects that may be associated with your individual session.

Special Applications
BodyTalk is a fantastic practice to improve your health and well-being, but it also has a number of interesting special applications to help you live your life to the fullest.
Time-Release Sessions
A BodyTalk session can be set to run at any given or relative time. This allows for a number of exciting special applications including:
These time-release or performance sessions usually work best after you have had one or more general BodyTalk sessions to improve your general balance and stress resiliency. As such, it is best to see your practitioner as soon as possible if you wish to receive a time-release session.
Group Sessions
Everyone has experienced the difficulties of being a part of a group, whether it be your family, a group project at school, a sports or hobby club, or a workplace. Groups of people come together to accomplish goals that individuals cannot accomplish on their own. However, group dynamics can be very complicated and can cause groups to break down. A group BodyTalk session can address the dynamics and relationships within a group from your perspective, using you as a 'surrogate' for the group energy. Again a group session is best done after you have received one or more general BodyTalk sessions, and a group session is only appropriate for a group you are an active member of. As tempting as it may be, it would not be appropriate to do a BodyTalk session on a group that affects you but you are not a part of, such as a level of government.
Business or Project Sessions
We can apply the principles of BodyTalk to a business, project or anything really. Say you wish to have a BodyTalk session done on a business. We would use you as a 'surrogate' for the business and treat the business as if it had a body just like a person. For example, while a business does not have a literal heart, it does have the energy of a heart which represents awareness, balance, peace and love within the business. As with other special application sessions, a business session is best done following one or more general BodyTalk sessions.
When you look at all the special application opportunities, you can see that BodyTalk is an extremely versatile practice that can help you in any area of your life and health.
Time-Release Sessions
A BodyTalk session can be set to run at any given or relative time. This allows for a number of exciting special applications including:
- Pre-Surgery Preparation and Post-Surgery Follow-Up
- Preparation and Follow-Up for Other Medical Procedures (ex. vaccination, blood test, etc.)
- Sports, Speech, Drama or Other Performance Support
- Exam or Interview Support and Preparation
These time-release or performance sessions usually work best after you have had one or more general BodyTalk sessions to improve your general balance and stress resiliency. As such, it is best to see your practitioner as soon as possible if you wish to receive a time-release session.
