Kinesiology helps your Beagle cope with allergies by balancing his or her immune system gently and naturally, and, where possible, by desensitizing him or her to the allergen. It can also identify the allergen if it is still unknown at the time of the session, as well as any support that may be necessary (homeopathy, flower essences, a change in diet, supplements, etc.). For your Beagle’s safety, your kinesiologist will always check for permission to desensitize – via muscle testing – before proceeding with the balance.
​
A kinesiology balance will help your dog’s body heal itself, by releasing the physical, mental, genetic and emotional stresses that may underlie the immune system imbalance that has led to the allergy. Emotional stress? Yes, allergies may indeed have an emotional cause. If your dog ate, inhaled or came into contact with a given substance while under emotional stress, he or she may eventually develop an allergy to that substance.

Kinesiology is a gentle, safe and non-invasive technique. If there is pain, the kinesiologist will be very attentive to not cause your dog any discomfort when performing a correction involving physical contact. A detailed history taken at the beginning of the session will allow the kinesiologist to know which parts of the animal’s body should be touched with care or avoided.

Kinesiology is one of the most comprehensive and holistic forms of natural therapy. It recognizes the importance not only of the body, but also of the mind and the spirit when it comes to health.
It is a therapy modality that relies on muscle testing to identify imbalances in the structural, chemical, mental and emotional systems of your Beagle’s body, as well as the external factors that may be affecting your dog’s health and well-being.  Clearing these imbalances restores the flow of energy in the body, which boosts its innate ability to heal itself, lessen stress and frustration that could be creating behavioural issues or be causes of some injuries and illnesses.
Kinesiology therefore considers physical ailments and behavioural issues as the result of unresolved stress. Although Kinesiology does not treat named diseases (that is the prerogative of veterinarians), it highlights and corrects the underlying issues that have caused the ailment in the first place.
Whether your Beagle is suffering from allergies, ear problems, epilepsy, separation anxiety, Intervertebral Disk Disease (IVDD), has torn a cruciate ligament, barks excessively or is actively destroying your shoes and the furniture, kinesiology will be a beneficial complementary therapy to veterinary care or to consultations with a behaviourist.
