What to Expect
Restorative Movement Therapy combines acupressure and therapeutic tuning forks to support nervous system regulation, reduce muscular tension, and restore ease of movement.
​
Each session begins with a brief conversation about your health history, current stress load, sleep, and movement concerns. This ensures the approach is tailored, safe, and aligned with your goals.
​
During your session, gentle acupressure is applied to specific points on the body to encourage relaxation and improve circulation. Precision-calibrated tuning forks may be used on or near the body to introduce subtle vibration that supports tissue release and parasympathetic activation. You remain fully clothed and comfortable throughout.

Healing is approached as a collaborative process — engaging physical effort, professional guidance, and, where desired, spiritual trust
What People Are Saying
Malia Mauri Pounamu Mekuli recommends Meridian Biokinetics.
I had the privilege of having a one-on-one session with Glynis yesterday. Her intuition is spot on and her hands radiate with healing energy. The healing was gentle and extremely calming.
During the entire session, I felt pampered, relaxed, nurtured, and very taken care of.
If you need to re-align and reset, this is your lady right here.
I have known Glynis for over 10 years and in all this time she has been a consistent, reliable professional in the field of Sport, Exercise Science, and Child Development. She has a wealth of experience in the above fields and has truly dedicated a large portion of her life to this.

Glynis has a passion for this industry that is contagious and I don't think I have met anyone that has invested themselves more into this area of expertise than she has. Over the years she has always been a great source of advice and mentorship.
