It uses tiny doses of plant, animal and mineral substances to produce similar symptoms to the condition being treated. This then stimulates the body to heal itself. There are over 3,500 homeopathic remedies which are also used to treat stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, migraine, asthma, hay fever, digestive disorders and skin complaints. Kinesiology Kinesiologists monitor the body s electrical energy field using muscle testing to measure range, movement, power and tone. These tests identify imbalances and the type of stress affecting the body.
