Applied Kinesiology

Applied Kinesiology (AK) is a technique that assesses muscle strength and weakness to identify imbalances or dysfunctions in the body. Practitioners use manual muscle testing to evaluate how muscles respond to various stimuli, which may indicate issues related to nerves, organs, or nutritional deficiencies. It’s often used as a complementary approach in holistic health practices to help diagnose and develop personalized treatment plans, including adjustments in nutrition, chiropractic care, or other therapies. While some consider it a useful diagnostic tool, scientific evidence supporting its effectiveness remains limited, and it is typically used alongside conventional medical assessments.
