Applied
Kinesiology, was founded in 1964 by the American chiropractor
George Goodheart and are now used by chiropractors, osteopaths,
medical doctors, dentists and others with a license to diagnose.
Dr. George Goodheart found that evaluation of normal and abnormal
body function could be accomplished by using muscle tests.
Since the original discovery, the principle has broadened
to include evaluation of the nervous, vascular, and lymphatic
systems, nutrition, acupuncture, and cerebrospinal fluid function.

Kinesiology is defined primarily as the use of muscle testing
to identify imbalances in the body's structural, chemical,
emotional or other energy, to establish the body's priority
healing needs, and to evaluate energy changes brought about
by a broad spectrum of both manual and non-manual therapeutic
procedures. Kinesiology, therefore, may be understood as a
system of natural health care which combines muscle monitoring
with the principles of Chinese medicine to assess energy and
body function, applying a range of gentle yet powerful healing
techniques to improve health, wellbeing and vitality.
