What it is
A kinesiology practice run from a room you rent part-time in an existing wellness centre or multi-practitioner clinic. You use muscle testing and movement assessment in one-on-one sessions.
Your first three steps
- Visit wellness centres in your area and compare room rental rates, rental terms and what other therapies they host
- Get an ABN, public liability and professional indemnity insurance, and check whether the centre requires specific cover
- Start with one or two days a week, set up online booking and ask neighbouring practitioners about referrals
Who pays
Individuals, including walk-in and referred clients who already visit the centre for massage, naturopathy or yoga.
How it makes money
A fixed fee per session, minus your room rent. Renting only the days you need keeps fixed costs low while you build a client base.
Skills that help
- Completed kinesiology training
- Building referrals with other practitioners
- Confident, professional client care
- Managing your own diary and payments
Watch out for
- Rental agreements: check the notice period, fees and whether you pay even on quiet days
- Kinesiology is generally self-regulated, so check which qualifications and association membership the centre expects
- Health claims in your advertising: avoid promising to diagnose, treat or cure conditions
- Private health fund rebates may not apply, so check before telling clients they can claim
- Income can be slow to build, so keep your rent commitment small at first
- Client records and privacy obligations
