Applied kinesiology is a form of diagnostic technique that allows our chiropractor to identify potential imbalances in a person’s body. Since kinesiology is the study of how the body moves, applied kinesiology uses that movement to identify where any problems may be. Applied kinesiology uses the muscles' own strengths and weaknesses to highlight specific trouble spots. It can be effectively be used to identify problems with the nervous system, chemical imbalances, nutritional deficiencies, and many other health conditions.
Understanding Applied Kinesiology
When the body is healthy, the muscles are strong. When disease, an illness, or an injury adversely affects the body, the muscles in that particular area weaken. Through the use of applied kinesiology, a chiropractor or other healthcare professional can target organs, joints, or any other part of the body that is being weakened by an abnormality of any kind. Through the use of applied kinesiology, a chiropractor can avoid the use of expensive diagnostic tests that may not provide all of the necessary answers.
Why Is Applied Kinesiology Used?
The muscles within the body tell a detailed story about your health. By using applied kinesiology, our chiropractor relies on your body's own strengths, as well as its weaknesses to identify any potential problems that may be present. Applied kinesiology is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that does not use radiation or any type of chemical to identify injuries or illnesses. It is incredibly accurate when performed correctly and allows our chiropractor to create effective treatment plans.
Do Applied Kinesiology and Chiropractic Go Together?
Applied kinesiology and chiropractic care go hand in hand when it comes to diagnosing and treating a wide variety of health concerns. The muscles and skeletal system both benefit from chiropractic adjustments and other techniques. Applied kinesiology points out weakened areas in the musculoskeletal structure that can be brought back into balance through chiropractic care, and other forms of treatment.
