About Ruth.
Hi I am Ruth and welcome to RF Wellness,
​
I specialise in BioKinesiology where I hold a BKAI qualification, I also have a diploma in Advanced Systematic Kinesiology through the ASK Association Ireland. Presently I am training in Reflexology where I will be fully qualified to IRIL standard.
​
My aim is to help clients get to the root of their problems to enable them to heal, rather than just treating symptoms. I do this using Kinesiology muscle testing, Reflexology and Reiki.
I am located in Castlegar, Galway just off of the M6 motorway which is just outside Galway city.
​
I use Kinesiology, Reflexology and Reiki as a way of helping clients to identify, address and heal the underlying cause of their physical, emotional and mental issues. By using muscle testing to assess the body's energy pathways, and then using reflexology to stimulated the body's own healing abilities.
​
I can provide clients with a holistic, integrative approach to health and wellbeing. This can help them to get to the root cause of their physical, mental and emotional concerns and to create long-term health and wellbeing.
​
Complimentary therapies have been a great help to me and my family throughout our lives. These treatments have allowed us to keep our bodies and minds healthy.

What is BioKinesiology?
BioKinesiology is a natural approach to health and well-being which uses the tool of muscle testing to gather information from the body. Muscle testing is a most useful way of finding out and getting to the root cause of many problems in the body.
How is BioKinesiology different?
BioKinesiology is unlike other modalities of Kinesiology in that it focuses on the biochemical pathways of the body to get to the root cause of your symptoms. Starting with toxicity testing, your body is checked for toxin overload such as food intolerances, viruses, bacteria, fungus/ candida, parasites, chemicals, heavy metals, and radiation. Your body will indicate if any of these are a problem. By identifying toxins that are affecting the body and removing these with the use of nutrients or eliminating the food, we can give it a chance to heal itself, as this is its natural process. Our body can find it difficult to heal if the environment does not allow it to.
Your BioKinesiology session.
During a BioKinesiology session, a practitioner will use muscle testing to assess the body’s energy pathways.
• The enzyme testing used in BioKinesiology sessions helps to identify underlying imbalances in the body that are related to the breakdown of food particles and nutrients. This testing can help to identify any deficiencies or excesses that may be preventing the body from absorbing and utilizing nutrients effectively.
• Food Intolerance Testing is used to identify any foods that may be causing an adverse reaction in the body. This testing can help to identify foods that may be triggering sensitivities that could be contributing to health problems. •
• Toxicity testing is used to identify any heavy metals, chemicals, or toxins that may be present in the body. This testing can help to identify any sources of toxicity that may be preventing the body from healing and functioning optimally.
During the session you remain fully clothed and will lie on a comfortable treatment plinth, so your treatment is a non-intrusive experience. While the client is lying on the plinth I place a vial on the body, the vial is used to test the body and provide information about the body's response to different substances in each vial. The vials correspond to a food, toxin, virus, bacteria etc.
As BioKinesiologists, we support clients holistically using nutrition, supplementation, Bach flower remedies and lifestyle changes.
By removing inflammation, toxins and food sensitivities BioKinesiology can help with:
• Digestive and bowel issues
• Food intolerances and toxin overload
• Hormonal imbalances/ fertility problems
• Anxiety and low mood
• Problematic skin conditions
• Aches and pains
• Chronic fatigue/ lack of energy/ insomnia and sleeping problems
• Emotional trauma

What is Reflexology?
Reflexology is a natural healing art based on the principle that there are reflex points in the feet and hands that correspond to every part, gland, and organ of the body. By applying pressure to these points, the body can be stimulated to heal itself.
Reflexology brings peace and relaxation to the whole body, calms the mind and mental alertness, resulting in an overall feeling of well-being. There are no boundaries or limitations to its benefits. It is safe for everyone. From babies to adults to the middle aged and the elderly. A person doesn’t need to be sick to benefit from Reflexology.
People who have regular treatments of Reflexology have been shown to be able to cope better in general, are more placid within themselves, are less susceptible to minor ailments, have better circulation.
​
What are some benefits of Reflexology?
Reflexology tunes the body in much the same way as a mechanic fine tunes a racing car in order to ensure that each part functions at its peak. It helps to reduce stress thereby enhancing a person’s ability to overcome symptoms of illness.
​
These are just some of the benefits of regular reflexology sessions provide:
• Helps relax & rebalance the body
• It alleviates the effects of stress
• It revitalises energy levels
• It relieves headaches and migraines
• It relieves ear, eye and sinus disorders
• It helps with pain management

Reflexology.
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese technique to help promote healing, stress reduction and relaxation. You receive the treatment by the position of my hands over your chakras which help to release blocked energies and renew our life force. If your "life force energy" is low, then you are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, you are more capable of being able to deal with what life has in store for you.
Reiki treats the whole person including body, mind and spirit, creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace and wellbeing.
​
What is Bach Flower Essence?
There are 38 remedies in the Bach remedy system. All of them were discovered in the 1920s and 1930s by Dr Edward Bach, a well-known bacteriologist, physician, and pathologist.
Each remedy is associated with a basic human emotion. Mimulus, for example, is for when we are anxious or afraid about something specific. Taking the remedy helps us overcome our fear and face it with courage.
The remedies are in liquid form so that you can mix together the remedies you need to help balance your current emotional situation. Like Dr. Bach, we believe that healing on an emotional level has knock-on effects on other levels. A healthy emotional life and a balanced personality will allow your body to find its own natural state of health.
Kinesiology can also be used to make a customised bottle of remedies to help the client overcome their emotion. This bottle of remedies may include up to four to six flower essences. The remedies in the bottle will be specific to the individual's needs and help to balance the body, mind and spirit.
