Applied Kinesiology

Muscle testing is also known as Applied Kinesiology (AK) or manual muscle testing (MMT). It is an alternative medicine practice that is used to effectively diagnose structural, muscular, chemical, and mental ailments within the human or animal form. 

Upon Diagnosis...

...with appropriately used accupressure points, such as Alarm Points, you can also see how the inner emergency system is already signalling to the individual what is actively out of balance within their form.  Then with additional accupressure points known as Neurovascular Points and Neurolymphatic Points, you can begin the supportive process of brining the individual back to physical, mental and emotional balance.

At the CSNSD we also encourage our students to use any additional Energy Therapy they use with great effect and professionalism to help bring everything into balance.  It is also wise for the Energy Therapy Practitioner to guide the patient to include additional therapies when necessary.  These can include Allopathic Medicine, Naturopathic Medicine, Physiotherapy, Osteopathy, etc.
