"The [Red Flags] weekend was so inspiring and confirmed for me the importance of our role as Healthcare practitioners to set a professional example within the medical field. Armed with the important medical knowledge to take a full-proof case history for our clients, I believe this course has prepared me for real life emergency situations I will come across my practice."

About Red Flags:Red Flags in Kinesiology is about "staying within the boundaries of safe clinical practice". As members of the Health Industry, kinesiologists need to develop an understanding of the assessment routine, diagnostic process and treatment implementation used in "orthodox" Medical Practice as well as most Natural Therapies and Traditional Health and Healing Modalities. This model, the result of the Cartesian division, is very different from both the Energy Medicine understanding of the connection between the physiological and subconscious worlds and the participatory model of the Professional Kinesiology Practitioner Protocol.
People who complete this unit are able to explain an orthodox assessment routine, diagnostic process and how to implement a treatment plan; compare and contrast it with the Professional Kinesiology Practitioner Protocol and recognise ‘red flag’ situations and refer to medical or other specialist care.
What will be covered:Seven reasons why diagnosis is important
- Why you need some understanding of the diagnostic process.
When muscle weakness is not an unlocking muscle
- There is a difference, and you should know the common six reasons.
- When should you refer to a neurologist?
Recognizing a mental disorder
- When a mental problem needs combined care.
- Pyschological disorders and the DSM IV.
- We do not have all the skills.
Standard systematic questions
- Sort clients’ problems quickly, efficiently.
- Know when a client’s problem is within the scope of kinesiology.
- Standard questions also protect the client.
How to use flow-charts
- Acute & chronic pains - chest & abdominal.
- Male and female health challenges.
- Sort headaches, vomiting, skin problems.
What Graduates have said:“My father is a hospital cardiologist. When he saw my class notes for ‘red flags in kinesiology’ he told me that at last he was able to say he was happy that i was studying kinesiology and was no longer worried about my career choice”.
"My friend rang me in a panic. Her husband had abdominal pain and had been sent home from the emergency room twice even though it was getting worse. They asked me what to do. I used the flow charts over the phone and gave them the differential diagnosis list sent urgently them to a different hospital. He had emergency abdominal surgery on arrival. It saved his life I was told."
“Red Flags is a truly inspirational workshop and is a must for any Kinesiologist! The session was informative, clear and lots of FUN!! This course is really the key to raising the level professionalism of our industry."
"thank you for the informative and insightful red flags workshop. I think it's a 'must do' for every Kinesiologist who is serious about being professional. The flowcharts in the workbook are really easy to follow and this is now one of my most valuable resources I use when taking case histories. Thank you also for sharing your wonderful stories because they demonstrated real life situations and highlighted the important responsibilities we face as Kinesiologists."
