Applied Kinesiology - Muscle Testing
What It Is: Applied Kinesiology, also known as Muscle Testing, is a non-invasive biofeedback assessment method that evaluates how the body responds to various stimuli. This technique accesses the body's neurological reflexes through manual muscle response testing, providing valuable information that guides our comprehensive health evaluation.
Muscle Testing as an integral component alongside Quantum Biofeedback, Trauma Release Technique, and other modalities to create a personalized wellness protocol. This technique can be performed both in-person and virtually.
How It Works: We use a straightforward assessment process:
For Virtual Sessions: When conducting muscle testing remotely, we utilize specialized remote kinesiology methods that allow us to assess your body's responses without physical contact. These techniques work through established neurological and energetic principles. While we occasionally use surrogate testing, our primary remote method does not require a surrogate.
What You May Experience: During an Applied Kinesiology session, the client will actively participate in the assessment process. The client will extend their arm in a specific position while the Practitioner applies gentle, consistent pressure. The experience is comfortable and non-invasive. Most clients find the process fascinating as they can feel the subtle changes in their own muscle response throughout the session. Sessions typically last 10-30 minutes based on the scope of assessment needed.
7 Key Benefits:
What We Address: Applied Kinesiology provides biofeedback information related to structural balance, stress responses, and how the body reacts to various factors on physical, mental, and emotional levels. This information guides the development of the comprehensive, personalized wellness protocol.
Important Note: This technique cannot be used if there are current shoulder injuries. However, there are alternative muscle testing methods available that gather the same information using different muscle groups if needed.

How It Works: We use a straightforward assessment process:
- Establish Baseline Response: The client will extend their arm while the practitioner applies gentle pressure to test baseline muscle strength. This establishes how the body responds "in the clear" - without any additional factors being introduced.
- Introduce Variables: We then introduce different variables (such as placing substances near the body, touching specific reflex points, or having the client focus on particular thoughts) while retesting the muscle response. Changes in muscle strength provide biofeedback about how the body is responding to these variables.
- Gather Information: The pattern of muscle responses throughout the session helps guide our understanding of which areas may benefit from support, which approaches the body responds to favorably, and how to structure our client's personalized protocol.

7 Key Benefits:
- Non-Invasive Assessment: Provides information about the body's responses without needles, blood work, or invasive procedures.
- Immediate Biofeedback: Offers real-time information about how the body responds to different factors during the session.
- Personalized Protocol Development: Guides the creation of an individualized approach rather than one-size-fits-all recommendations, helping identify which specific nutrients, lifestyle modifications, or therapeutic approaches the body may respond to favorably.
- Comprehensive Integration: Works alongside other assessment methods (including Quantum Biofeedback and clinical evaluation) to provide a more complete picture of our client's health status and needs.
- Addresses Multiple Areas: Can be used to gather information about structural alignment, stress responses, and how the body reacts to various substances and stimuli.
- Efficient Information Gathering: Allows for a quick analysis of multiple factors to refine the wellness protocol as the body changes and progresses.
- Client Involvement: Our clients play an active role during each assessment, helping our clients understand their own body's responses and empowering them to make informed decisions about their health journey.
