“YOU are now
responsible for AK’s future…guard it well!”
Applied Kinesiology Manual Muscle Testing has enhanced clinical decision-making for several
generations of clinicians who are using the MMT. This has led to better patient
care through the detection of change or lack of change in the patient’s muscular
performance after treatment. The worldwide emphasis on the inclusion of
physical and manipulative restorative procedures as a regular component of
healthcare and the attention paid to defining and measuring the health status
of large population groups will increase our dependence upon this kind of
non-invasive, reliable, and valid test procedure.
Our days as “unconventional” clinicians using the MMT are drawing
to a close…but it will be up to you and me to prove to others the value of what
we do and to take the lead in “The Muscle Weakness Revolution” that is now
occurring throughout the scientific literature and in the healing arts.
“The body heals
itself in a sure, sensible, practical, reasonable, and observable manner. ‘The
Healer Within’ can be approached from without. The opportunity to use the body
as an instrument of laboratory analysis is unparalleled in modern therapy; if one
approaches the problem correctly, making the proper and adequate diagnosis and
treatment, the response is satisfactory to both the doctor and to the patient.
Applied Kinesiology is something that can be performed with knowledge, with
physiological facts, and with predictable certainty. It should be done, it can
be done.” –
