ABOUT ME

I am the founder of Meridian Biokinetics. My work focuses on supporting the body’s natural capacity for restoration through gentle complementary therapies that promote relaxation, reduce tension, and support nervous system balance. Drawing on a holistic understanding of the body, I work with clients to encourage physical comfort, improved wellbeing, and greater resilience. My approach is calm, supportive, and centred on helping individuals restore balance and function in everyday life.

With over 35 years of experience, I combine evidence-based movement training with acupressure and tuning fork therapy to help clients improve function, reduce tension, and restore balance.

SERVICES

RESTORATIVE THERAPY

Services may include gentle complementary techniques such as acupressure, reflexology, therapeutic sound applications, and other relaxation-based therapies designed to support nervous system regulation and reduce physical tension.

These therapies are intended to promote relaxation, encourage circulation, support comfort, and enhance general wellbeing.

Sessions are provided in a calm and respectful environment where clients are encouraged to relax and take time to restore both body and mind.

Who I Work With

I support adults who are seeking gentle complementary therapies to promote relaxation, reduce tension, and encourage overall wellbeing. Sessions are suitable for those wanting supportive care for stress, physical discomfort, or simply time to relax and restore.

Sessions may not be suitable for individuals who:

*Require urgent medical attention
*Have an undiagnosed or acute medical condition

If you are undergoing medical treatment, it is recommended to consult your healthcare provider before booking.

What to Expect

Restorative 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.

What People Are Saying

Malia
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.

I wish to thank you all for the wonderful service you provide. Eight weeks ago (1st August) I was waiting for a knee replacement and wracked with so much pain that life was almost unmanageable.
I was not able to describe what and where my pain was; I was totally out of touch with my body.

The exercises planned for me in the early weeks showed me how little mobility I had: neck, shoulders, hands, waist and ankles. I particularly like the fact that all exercises I have been shown, and done, can be done at home without any special equipment.

Again thank you,

Virginia
