Educational Kinesiology and Brain Gym®
“Movement is the door to learning!” – Paul E Dennison 
Educational Kinesiology is a movement-based therapy used sucessfully by adults and children alike to help them reach their full potential in many areas - intellectual, creative, athletic or interpersonal.
Babies and young children naturally perform what are known as "developmental movements" and Dr Paul Dennison (the creator of Brain Gym and co-founder of the Educational Kinesiology Foundation) discovered how to adapt these movements so we can use them to stimulate our brains, even at age 80. The result is a therapy which has provided a safe, drug-free, simple and effective answer to dealing with many of life's challenges such as stress, depression, phobias and conditions such as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, ADD/ADHD and Autism.
Linda trained in Edu-K in the US with many of the original creators including Paul Dennison himself, completing her qualification in the UK in 2004. In addition to seeing clients, both children and adults at Aboyne Complementary Health Studios, Linda runs training courses and workshops, give talks and school in-services.
She is also part-way through training in Craniosacral therapy (please see below) which I find complements the Edu-K very well to provide an even deeper level of change.
What others have said about Educational Kinesiology and Brain Gym
"I felt lethargic, anxious and nervous for no specific reason and lost the confidence I once had. After one session of Edu-K (Brain Gym)... I gained a part of myself I had lost for 3 years (after a neck injury). I can now multi-task again, cope with any situation... my organisation skills and increased energy levels have returned along with a feeling of inner calm and well-being" MM Aberdeen
"Give it a try, it really works!" Primary School Teacher, Lumphanan

Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle hands on therapy which enhances the body’s own natural healing processes. Stress or tension anywhere in the craniosacral system, which runs from the cranium (head) to the sacrum (base of the spine), can have knock-on effects throughout the entire body, and Craniosacral Therapy has been found to relieve both physical and emotional symptoms of many ailments.
