Kinetic Chain Release (KCR)

‘Kinetic Chain Release (KCR) seeks to unblock, harmonise and balance the physical body and its energies. Therefore our goal is not simply to focus on correcting or compensating for your physical conditions and circumstances, but also to restore and enhance the free flow of the life force within you. It is a tool which should belong to everyone, and one day will.’ — Hugh Gilbert

As we age, our body can lose its natural alignment and then aches, pains and stresses can build up. As this happens you may feel more tense and restricted on both a physical and energetic level.

There are many factors or causes of this misalignment such as a sports injury, pregnancy and labour, repetitive strain, wear and tear from work or intense activities, poor posture and so on.

Kinetic Chain Release is a gentle process, using a specific protocol of stretches, to release the tension in the joints. This is all carried out by the practitioner (it’s not like yoga where you are doing the exercises). These stretches allow the body to release restrictions and return to natural alignment.

Some benefits include:

Improved posture

Sense of ease in everyday movements

Relief from pain

Improved digestion

Improves the nervous system

Your body will be more relaxed

KCR can alleviate problems such as weak ankles, knee problems, hip and joint pain, pelvic discomforts, back, shoulder and neck pain, TMJ, and headaches.

You will be lying on a massage table and you will be fully clothed other than your shoes. KCR is suitable for any age, including children.
