About OHB

 

Charles BenhamThe originator of OHB was Charles Benham.  He first became involved with kinesiology in 1979 at the age of 58 and was a member of the first group of Touch For Health instructors in the UK. He studied, practised and trained in a range of kinesiology disciplines and was considered a leading pioneer of kinesiology in the UK.

By the mid-eighties Charles had evolved the OHB system using finger, hand and body modes.

In 1998 he replaced the modes with an easy-to-use vibrational icon system based on
numerical coding.

Gill TarlingtonIn 2003 Gill Tarlington took over as head of OHB. Based in Norfolk, she has been practising and teaching OHB since 1994 both privately and through Norfolk Adult Education.  She has been a registered member of the Kinesiology Federation since 1993 and teaches its Foundation Training as well as Touch For Health.
