Applied Kinesiology / Functional Biochemistry

APPLIED KINESIOLOGY is often abbreviated to AK and sometimes referred to as Functional Biochemistry.

It is an excellent diagnostic tool as it's non invasive and can be beneficial for a variety of symptoms and conditions. Applied Kinesiology is taught to medical professionals only; Doctors, Dentists, Osteopaths and Chiropractors and should not be confused with 'kinesiology' muscle testing as practiced by non-medically qualified persons.

Applied Kinesiology is another tool in the 'armoury' in helping determine the reason for dis-ease.

It is a brilliant way of finding and giving exactly the right ingredient, nutrient or co-factor for that individual to enable them to naturally bring their enzyme pathways up to optimum and functional levels.

Here are a few examples of conditions where Applied Kinesiology has been beneficial...

* Allergies

* Athritic conditions

* Asthma

* Bloating and flatulence

* Eczema

* Irritable Bowel

* Learning Difficulties

* Skin Disorders

* Frozen or stiff shoulders

* Sports injury

The method of Applied Kinesiology is primarily concerned with neuromuscular function (the relationship between muscles and nerve supply) and how it relates to the regulation of structural, chemical and emotional physiology.

It uses the principle that the body is a self-maintaining, self-correcting mechanism. George H. Goodhart Jr D.C. (Doctor of Chiropractic) introduced manual muscle testing to evaluate body function in 1964. Since then, research into and knowledge of Applied Kinesiology has expanded considerably, providing many additional dimensions to the diagnosis of bodily dysfunction.

Health is composed of structural, chemical and emotional factors which must be equally balanced and often referred to as the 'triangle of health'.

When a person has ill health, at least one of these factors is involved and often two, or all three can be affected if the cause is not identified, and allowed to continue.

The principle of Applied Kinesiology is to analyse and check all three factors and treat any or all that are disrupted. It is imperative in the treatment of the patient that all three aspects are analysed and balanced in order to restore the 'triangle of health' and subsequently restore the patient to complete well-being and improvement in quality of life.
