MUSCLE TESTING FOR ALLERGIES Part 2How Muscle
Testing Is Done
How can this
incredibly sensitive instrument, the human body, be used to detect
allergies, or disturbances in the body's energy field? The body's
meridian energy is somehow connected to the muscles of the body.
If you are exposed to the energy field of a substance to which
you are allergic, it disturbs your energy flow. This energy disturbance
is manifested in the form of a weakened muscle.
Before doing
muscle testing, I carefully energy balance all the muscles
by massaging or touching certain energy reflex points that
affect
the meridian energy, to make sure that I am testing the
person's reaction to only the substance in question. I then
expose the
person to the suspected substance — say, coffee beans — and
test the reaction of the previously balanced arm muscle.
If the person
is sensitive to the coffee beans, he will not be able
to hold the arm rigid against the slight pressure I exert.
The arm will
simply give way. The effect in practice is quite dramatic.
If the person's arm gives way on exposure to coffee beans,
and if
the coffee beans are then removed, the arm will test
strong again.
 Applied
Kinesiology and Touch for Health
Muscle testing
was first developed in the early 1960s by Dr. George Goodheart,
a chiropractor. He called this new system Applied Kinesiology.
Today lay-people as well as health professionals can learn some
of the techniques for balancing and testing the body's energy
through classes in Touch for Health, a system established in
the early l970s by Dr. John Thie, another chiropractor. More
than one million people, in at least 40 countries, have now learned
this technique.
Health Kinesiology
These muscle
testing techniques, along with the methods I have developed myself,
have all been incorporated into a comprehensive health care system
I call Health Kinesiology™. This system comprises methods for
discovering and correcting energy disturbances from all currently
known sources — not only from allergy and intolerance, but also
emotional and psychological factors, and other environmental
influences.
While many
health professionals today use muscle testing, they may not be
aware of the special procedures required for precise allergy,
nutritional, and psychological/emotional work. Qualified health
practitioners can now receive training in Health Kinesiology.
An extensive discussion of some of these methods, as well as
a description of the 14 known ways, other than allergy, that
people react adversely to food and other substances, is available
in my 100-page booklet, Energy and Allergy.* The material in
this booklet is suitable for anyone interested in understanding
their health better, and includes new information on improvement
of diet.
Muscle testing
is an extremely sensitive technique for identifying the substances
to which a person is allergic. For example, through these methods
I have found that many people are allergic to pollens — yet,
many health-conscious people regularly eat bee pollen, and then
wonder why they never feel up to par! Muscle testing can show
that spring water is preferable to distilled water. (The heat
of distilling water affects its energy quality). Thus, using
muscle testing we are able to demonstrate that many foods and
other substances that you may have thought were harmless or beneficial,
are actually not good for you.
Besides the
foods and chemicals that disturb your body's energy, muscle testing
can identify the psychological and emotional factors that are
unbalancing your energy and interfering with normal function.
Muscle testing techniques also can distinguish allergy from intolerance,
and can determine what the specific tolerance level is for a
given food.
Advantages
of the Energy Approach
The techniques
of Health Kinesiology are not only more sensitive than other
forms of allergy testing, but also easier on the person being
tested. For many people, fasting is a difficult and uncomfortable
means of identifying allergies; and, like many other allergy
testing methods, it is very slow, taking weeks or months. With
Health Kinesiology techniques, testing for allergies can be very
rapid. For most people, a single session of an hour to an hour
and a half can determine all the substances to which they are
allergic, and to what extent.
Energy techniques allow us to identify not only the gross, observable effects of harmful substances, but also the subtle reactions that people may not be able to free, such as a slowly deteriorating arthritic joint. I believe that any tissue in the body can show an allergic reaction, whether we can observe that reaction directly or not. I have seen many cases in which inadequately functioning tissues were restored to normal function once an allergic substance had been identified and the allergic reaction eliminated. Fibroid tumors, autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, or arthritis, emphysema, and probably even cancer, and a great many other ailments, may have an underlying allergic basis. When people who have these kinds of problems eliminate all allergies, they often get well from their diseases. Other
