Helen Hansen is a kinesiologist specialising in meridian therapy, archetypal psychology and mind-body healthcare. Kinesiology uses muscle testing to assess levels of disturbance in the physiology and psychology of the individual. Kinesiology also uses muscle testing to confirm modes for revitalising and restoring wellbeing.
Since childhood Helen has been intrigued by how life works, from the life in our cells, to our worldly interaction as well as the stories in our head. Needless to say, one of her archetypes is the researcher. Helen has been working/playing with mind-body healing and development for twenty five years. Her own journey of healing through years of fibromyalgia (which completed ten years ago), alongside the healing journey of thousands of clients served Helen to continue on this path of discovery, awareness and application. For what good is knowledge when it is not applied?
Helen is the founder of Holistic Health, a platform of self-study health courses, empowering the individual to take responsibility for their own wellbeing. Helen provides online sessions for adults, children and animals.
