Applied Kinesiology (AK)

When it comes to achieving health traditional medicine has often treated the body as separate, from our emotions and mind. However there is a growing body of evidence suggesting that there is a connection between our well being, emotions and the energy that exists within us.
These energy pathways are also known as meridians in Traditional Chinese Medicine and could be linked to organ dysfunction. The practice of AK involves muscle testing to identify factors contributing to health and illness such as chemical, nutritional, and emotional imbalances.

Applied Kinesiology is based on the principle of Chinese Medicine which states that the body's energy flows through pathways called meridians. These meridians correspond to organs and systems in the body. By assessing how our muscles respond, we gain insights into how these systems are functioning. Manual muscle testing is a tool used in AK to evaluate the strength of muscles. Using a gentle pressure on a specific muscle, we can ascertain if the muscle responds strongly or weakly. A strong response suggests that the test is positive, and a weak response suggests that the test is negative. This testing helps us gather information about imbalances, weaknesses, or blockages in the body's energy flow.

AK evaluates nutritional, emotional, and energetic factors as contributors to health and illness. It provides a framework for exploring causes of health issues and developing treatment strategies.

When it comes to treatment approaches in Applied Kinesiology:

Nutritional Assessment

Muscle testing is utilized to determine which nutrients, vitamins or minerals may be needed to create balance in the body. This individualized method can help guide recommendations for diet and supplements.

Considering Emotions

Emotional well-being, stress levels, and major and minor traumas have a great impact on digestive health and overall health. Applied Kinesiology (AK) may incorporate techniques to address emotional barriers or sources of stress that contribute to illness and disease.
