Testimonials

“How was I introduced to Tara Shields and the wonderful work she does? Initially, I was gifted a session by a friend of mine. I was skeptical to say the least. Kinesiology, to me, sounded like pseudo-science and New Age hocus-pocus. By the end of the session I was a true convert. Kinesiology is undeniably powerful. I can’t explain it. All I know is that after a session with Tara I feel lighter, uplifted, completely zenned. I leave with a deep sense of peace that stays with me long after the session. What I love about kinesiology. The way I see it, kinesiology allows me to side-step the conscious mind and shift things on an unconscious level. Unlike conventional forms of counseling I don’t have to verbally regurgitate all the mess from my past to do so. Sometimes, talking about my problems repeatedly only cements them further – Feels like I’m ‘re-living’ trauma and over-identifying with stories. Can be a valuable part of the healing process but not always and entirely therapeutic. Tara herself is a healer. She is the perfect mix of assertive confidence and gentle compassion. A true heart, voice of reason and my go-to guru for whole-hearted advice and guidance. Thanks Tara, for the love and care you’ve shown me x”

“Leading up to the birth of my second child I was extremely anxious after a long and drawn out birth of my first child that left me feeling confused, doubting myself and my body. Through my sessions with Tara I was able to explore the underlying events, memories and beliefs that were undermining my ability to approach the upcoming birth with joy and excitement. Not only was it a fascinating experience to work through these often hidden beliefs and memories, but with Tara’s guidance and expertise I was able to let go of so much negativity, fear and anxiety and to release false beliefs I held about myself and my body. The result was a beautiful, joyful birth. Not only was I able to remain calm and peaceful through the birth, but I believe that my sessions with Tara also helped my baby girl feel prepared and calm as she entered the world. I truly cannot say enough about my prenatal sessions with Tara! I only wish I’d known her and had sessions with her prior to my first birth! I can’t say enough about how worthwhile it was working with Tara in the lead up to my daughter’s birth. If you’re an expectant mama, this is a truly indispensable and unmissable part of preparing for birth.”

“At my first session with Tara I was blown away of how effective and versatile kinesiology really is. I was suffering from major back and neck pains that were sending me into depression, keeping me from surfing and living the active life that I wanted. I was seeing a chiropractor, physiotherapist and a massage therapist. But none of them seem to be able to figure out what was wrong with me. Within the first session I already began to feel a difference. Tara was able to address the root of the problem which turned out to be brought on by stress and emotional baggage. It’s now 6 months down the track and my life has taken a complete 180. My mind is clear and I’m back in the water surfing, pain free!”

“I met Tara after chance encounter from a flyer drop I was doing in the Suffolk Park area. Admittedly, I was skeptical of Kinesiology, however after my first session with Tara I have not looked back! I look forward to each session and what it will bring whether it be new found awareness of how I am reacting to situations or what emotions I am holding onto within my body, this is especially important as my job requires my physical fitness level to be of the highest standard. After the completion of our sessions I feel as though a weight has been lifted and I head back into world with a new perspective on how to tackle all different relationships and situations with the 3 sentences being uttered, ‘I feel, I want, I am willing…’ I would recommend Tara to everyone whether you are currently feeling balanced or not, you will find how much more in line you are with your values and goals after a session with Tara.”

“Yesterday for the first time in years (I’m talking 5-10yrs), I was walking along the beach and all I could hear was the sound of the water and waves, without even trying my mind and head chatter stopped and I was just there in the moment, living in the moment. I don’t think I’ve been as happy and just content as I was in that moment. Thank you so much Tara, you are amazing!”

“Tara’s work speaks for itself. She has worked with me through both physical and emotional issues and the results have been lasting and self empowering. She has opened up a self awareness that I didn’t realize was so accessible. Tara is nurturing and joyful in her approach which put me at ease straight away. I highly recommend her.”

“Before seeing Tara, I tried everything to get rid of the twisted feeling and pain in my arms and shoulders. I saw Doctors, Chiropractors, Physiotherapists and acupuncturists. Some temporarily relieved the pain or moved it around, but in 3-4 sessions with Tara I am now pain free in my arms and shoulders and I can train and paddle freely in the ocean.”

“I was very sceptical when I first started seeing Tara, as I had never heard about Kinesiology and didn’t really believe in it. But I was desperate, struggling with trauma and chronic pain and was also going through a break up. I started seeing Tara almost 2 years ago now and it has been the best thing I have ever done for myself. At first, I did not understand how it worked, but it I started seeing changes in my behaviour and my thinking and started to understand energy flow. I have recently moved to Coffs Harbour and have started Skype sessions with Tara. I know a lot of people are sceptical, but I can guarantee you there is no difference in the effectiveness of Tara’s work through Skype or via the phone. As a Social Worker and spiritual counsellor, I often work with people online or via phone and help them release energy through emotional work. As spiritual workers, both Tara and myself have learned how to tune into someone’s energy without having to physically be there, in order to help that person to let go of what no longer serves them and create healthy changes within themselves. I can’t thank Tara enough for all her support in my journey and highly recommend anyone who has doubts to just give it a go! You will be amazed!”

“Through kinesiology Tara and I delved deep into my cellular memories and beliefs systems to clear and let go of trauma and fear surrounding my first labour and birth of my beautiful son Shiloh. During my second pregnancy of my daughter Océane she was able to clear and release deep emotions, ideas and beliefs that were not serving me. Together we created a path in which helped me achieve my dream birthing experience ( 7 hour home birth that was an incredibly positive experience. ) Tara’s quirky, grounded nature made every session flow with ease as she went though clearing layers, balancing and changing my whole perception of labour and birth. Her knowledge and understanding of her field is profound and her enthusiasm and rapport is beautiful. I would now call her a dear friend.”

“Working with Tara has brought about big shifts in my life. After losing my partner of 13 years, I found it hard to nurture and cook for myself. Tara diffused issues around eating and digestion, actually it wasnt even something I requested, it just came up as part of an emotional balance…that week I found myself naturally wanting to prepare our favourite dish and doing so!! I knew that was a new development but it was only when I was back on the table at Tara’s the following week that I realized what we had diffused and the huge shift it had had for me! It had been 5 and a half years since I had been able to nurture myself in that way! That is just one concrete example of the way in which Kinesiology can help clear blockages. Tara has helped me with many such problems…I no longer get stiffness and discomfort in my fingers after eating dairy or wheat because of the balances we have done around desensitising. I am a medical practitioner myself and I had seen different counselors and psychologists over the years but find the changes that come about with Tara’s energetic healing and Kinesiology are more profound and happen more quickly than with any other modality I have used.”

“Each time I’ve seen Tara, I’m extremely amazed and impressed with how I feel after each visit. On one occasion I had a re occurring problem with my ribs coming out of place which happened 3 times over 3 months. After visiting Osteopaths and seeing the problem come back, I went to visit Tara to see if she could find the true source of the problem rather than get a quick fix every time and once again, she fixed it in one session! Tara is a caring and nurturing person by nature who takes the time with you and has excellent patience.”

“I have been seeing Tara one-on-one for many years and she has helped me immensely with a whole variety of issues. When I moved interstate I didn’t want to have to find someone else and start again so she suggested Skype. I didn’t think it would be the same as having a face-to-face session but I was surprised at how similar it was and actually very interesting to feel my body still react and change with her techniques. I thoroughly enjoyed my session and so pleased that I can still see her sparkling personality over the cyber waves. Thank you Tara. xx”

“I have had several sessions with Tara, and each time we have gone deeper to discover my true core, and I leave feeling cleansed and clearer. Tara is very gentle and understanding, and guides my body in the right direction it needs. Since each session I have felt more energized, focused and have seen my confidence grow immensely. Tara has an amazing energy; she is genuine and lets your body do the talking. She is caring, trustworthy and has my 100% faith.”

“My first exposure to Tara and kinesiology was at the Health and Wellness Convention on the Gold Coast in January 2012. Tara’s interaction with me gave me a great understanding of the concept of kinesiology. I suffered from a severe brain injury 8 years ago. I defied medical odds and survived, however, I lost my sense of smell and medical staff claimed that it would not return. After 2 sessions of kinesiology Tara has facilitated regaining my sense of smell! I have had 12 sessions so far, the connection with such a beautiful spirit has facilitated significant growth professionally, personally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Tara is a beautiful person, balanced, grounded, inciteful and great fun. She is brilliant as a practitioner and she has also becomes a great friend. People I have referred to Tara to echo my sentiments. I highly recommend Tara and I am so excited about this magical journey in life.”

“For over a decade I have struggled with alcoholism, depression and anxiety. I had no motivation, had ruined my relationships, my work and self esteem and was finding few reasons to wake each day. I’ve been blessed with working with Tara for the past 18 months. Through her care and wisdom, I haven’t had the urge to drink for 3 months!! I suffered no withdrawals or need for rehab. Her generous support and acceptance (in and out of the clinic) has helped to heal not only my body, but mind and soul as well. In a very real sense, Tara has not only changed my life, but has likely saved it.”

“I have been working with Tara over Skype for over a year now. Her beautiful personality, kind heart and amazing expertise as a Kinesiologist has brought so much light into my life! I know people may be skeptical about being able to have kinesiology sessions online but I know first hand that they work! Each session has created massive shifts in me. I have seen so much growth within myself as a result of working online with Tara. We pinpoint life events that caused limiting belief patterns, clear longstanding blocks that interfere with living fully and as a result, we work towards positive goals for myself and what I want in life. What I love and appreciate so much is that with kinesiology, you can expect to get so much farther, way faster than with traditional therapy, and at a deeper level than any other modality. And yes, this applies with online! I cherish my sessions with Tara and am so grateful to have her in my life.”

“I find that Tara’s Skype sessions work very similarly to face-to-face because the connection and discussions are still there despite no physical contact. I find the power of the sessions come from talking through the problems which creates awareness for Tara to then clear them with me, which is just as easy via Skype.”

“I have had several appointments with Tara Shields and will keep going back when I need it. Each time I walk out feeling balanced and well having reached new and important insights about myself emotionally, physically and structurally. I have always thought Kinesiology is one of the best forms of healing around and Tara really knows how to apply her in-depth knowledge of the discipline to heal immediately and for weeks and months following each session.”

– Hattie D.

“I have managed to unravel much of my past and present life trials through Kinesiology with Tara. It has helped me to fix physical, emotional and stress related ailments. I Recommend Tara to many friends and family and those that have taken the plunge, have experienced life changing benefits. She is a true healer!”

“My road to having a baby to fulfill my dreams was through IVF. It was a 13month process that wasn’t easy, physically and mentally the most challenging experience I have ever been faced with. I never stopped believing but one weekend in October at a friend’s wedding my dear friend Tara who lucky for me does Kinesiology grabbed my hand and with a few words she began counting and stopped at 4 .I had no idea what she was doing. l will never forget it “she said 4months and you will be pregnant” Tears from both of us followed. I said im going to have a baby. She replied with “yes!!” Her profession and her wisdom was a turning point for me. I held onto it and to her word on the 10th of February we were pregnant!! In my darkest moments l would reflect on what she said and all my dreams came true. I am forever thankful to you as a friend and for what you do.”

““With a background in natural health and wellness, I’ve known about Kinesiology for a very long time and experienced it on a small scale in a workshop. It was only when I witnessed my partner, in a session with Tara, get his sense of smell back that I realized how powerful a healing art it is. I was very keen to explore what healing could take place in my body-mind, even though I am pretty healthy. Having now had many sessions with Tara over several months, I’m so impressed with the varied techniques she uses based on what my body says it needs. Tara’s compassion, intuition, energy and enthusiasm for each and every step of the healing and balancing process is wonderful. Also, I’m so grateful for her continued support between sessions and the smiles and laughs shared along the way that have formed a friendship that will continue beyond treatments. Tara has a big heart and a beautiful spirit. She has helped me unlock my potential in my new career and my relationship and I’m very thankful we have crossed paths. I’d recommend her to any one for any healing path they want to take.”

“I loved my Skype Kinesiology sessions with Tara Shields. I have worked with her previously in person a few years back, yet I live in a different state, so I was keen to find a way to keep working with her. It may sound strange, being in different rooms, actually different cities, yet the sessions were just as powerful and the take-away as profound. Energy doesn’t care whether you’re in the same room or not, I guess that’s the whole point of it – we are all joined in energy anyway! I highly recommend these skype sessions and would not hesitate to go back for more.”
