Applied Kinesiology 

Applied Kinesiology (AK) is a non-invasive system of evaluating the structural, chemical, and mental aspects of health using manual muscle testing combined with other standard methods of diagnosis. Established in 1964 by Dr. George J Goodheart Jr. DC, after he was given a copy of Kendall & Kendall’s Muscles Testing and Function with Posture and Pain. Incorporating this book, which described the patient positioning and the general testing method, into a chiropractic approach incorporating the five factors of holistic healing including myofacial release. This technique is essential when treating chronic pain, traumatic injuries, and post-workout integration.
