APPLIED KINESIOLOGY
by
Eugene Charles D.C., DIBAK
APPLIED KINESIOLOGY can be defined as the clinical
application of the study of movement and function.
Functional Neurology
Diagnostic of the body’s central integrative state through
the detection of direct or reflex manifestations within the
structure or function of the muscular system.

Applied kinesiology (AK) is a continually
evolving system which provides the doctor with
the skills and knowledge to purposefully,
systematically and logically ascertain the optimal
treatment of the patient.
AK embraces the work of all individuals and
disciplines who endeavor to diminish the suffering
of humanity. AK attempts to unify such diverse
knowledge and techniques into a usable scientific
system for one purpose:
To bring patients to a higher level of healthand help them to actualize their potential.

THE NECESSARY STEPS TO DEVELOP PERSISTENCE
1. A definite purpose backed by burning desire for its
fulfillment.
2. A definite plan, expressed in continuous action.
3. A mind closed tightly against all negative and
discouraging influences, including negative suggestions of
relatives, friends and acquaintances.
4. A friendly alliance with one or more persons who will
encourage one to follow through with both plan and
purpose.

13KEYPOINTS OF MUSCLE TESTING
1. Approximate the origin and insertion.
2. Avoid bony contacts.
3. Adequately stabilize the patient.
4. Instruct the patient in which direction to push or pull.
5. Do not overpower. Initiate patient’s contraction with
your test, then steadily increase your pressure for three (3)
seconds. You are measuring the ability of the muscle to
“lock”.

14KEYPOINTS OF MUSCLE TESTING
6. Be aware of operator prejudice
7. Observe if the patient is trying to change the parameters
8. Observe if the patient is holding breath
9. Keep the patient’s hands off body
10. Coordinate timing so that doctor and patient initiate
test simultaneously

GAIT ANALYSIS
In AK there are four objective criteria
1. Postural Analysis
2. Temporal Sphenoidal (TS) Line
3. Gait Analysis
4. Acupuncture Pulse Point Analysis
Along with a thorough history and standard examination
procedures
Muscular dysfunction may be due to specific Meridian
imbalances

THE MERIDIAN SYSTEM
5th factor of the Intervertebral foramen (IVF)
An encompassing energy arrangement within the body
Along with the 7 major Chakras comprise the “Aura”
Chiropractors have been accidentally influencing the
meridians since the first recorded adjustment in 1895
“A good doctor restores health; a great doctor prevents
illness from occurring.”

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
Acupuncture philosophy - humans are one with the
universe and all life is permeated with a differentiated, but
Single Life Force. (Chi, Prana, Spirit)
Chi circulates along pathways called Meridians
Balanced energies = Health
Imbalances = Disease
Trauma, stress, improper nutrition can cause imbalances
Treatment includes stimulating certain points along the
Meridian to direct the flow of Chi and restore harmony.

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
Acupuncture has been used for several thousand years
All temporal experiences have opposites that merge and
compliment each other to create balance. I.e. hot/cold,
day/night, male/female...
These complimentary opposites are known as:
Yin (female, moon, negative, deep)
&Yang (male, sun, positive, superficial)
1960’s Mao Tse Tung invited Western doctors
1966 Goodheart introduced acupuncture into applied
kinesiology

BASIC CONCEPTS OF ACUPUNCTURE
Primary intent is to prevent disease
Oldest reference is the Nei Ching written around 2650 BC
Four Basic methods of treatment:
1. Stimulation of points to balance energies
2. Dietary changes and use of herbs
3. Spinal Manipulation
4. Meditation and introspection

Pulse points are used to diagnose imbalances within the
meridian system.
They are located on both wrists over the radial artery.
Classically, there are 3 points - each consisting of a deep
and a superficial pulse.
A positive Therapy localization means that there is an
imbalance in one or both of the meridians.

Alarm points are used to diagnose imbalances within a
meridian.
They are located on the thorax.
There are 18 points - 6 single and 6 bilaterally (12).
A positive Therapy localization means that there is an
imbalance within that meridian.

English physician, Felix Mann stated that meridian
imbalances create subluxations at its Associated points.
Goodheart found that spinal subluxations can cause a
meridian imbalance.
They are located on the bladder meridian between two
vertebrae and can indicate a subluxation of either.
Restoring normal juxtaposition to the vertebral complex
helps removes blockage from the excess meridian.

Energy of the body flows through the 12 meridians in a 24
hour cycle.
Each meridian has a 2 hour window of highest & lowest
energy.
When a meridian is at its highest, its opposite is at its
lowest (I.e. Gall bladder is peak at midnight while Heart is
at its lowest energy.
Symptoms that occur at specific times may be due to
meridian imbalances.
For example: Headaches at 2am may be due to Liver
dysfunction.

Subluxation of the distal Radioulnar and a carpal bone
(Lunate, Navicular most commonly) can compress the

Symptoms:
Parasthesia, pain or hand weakness. History of falling on
hand or chronic strain. Thenar atrophy corresponding with
chronicity.
Examination Findings:
Weakness of Opponens Pollicis. Weakness will be
negated by approximation of the distal Radioulnar
joint and Therapy Localization to the anteriorly
subluxated carpal bone (if applicable).

General Treatment Protocol:
1. Correct any muscle imbalances - most commonly the
origin and insertion of the Pronator Quadratus requires
stimulation as does the spindle cells of the Opponens
Pollicis.
2.Realign the joints.

General Treatment Protocol:
3. Nutritional Support - manganese, Vitamin C & E, whole
adrenal for ligament recovery. Raw calcium (phosphatase)
for the injured muscles.
B6 is often helpful. If B6 inhibits check for need for zinc,
riboflavin, magnesium or phosphorous all of which are
necessary to convert pyridoxine (B6) into pyridoxal-5-
phosphate.
NOTE: Excessive B6 ( I.e. >150mg for over 8 weeks) can
cause the same neurological symptoms it helps alleviate.
(pyridoxine neuropathy syndrome)
FYI: Birth Control Pill = 30mg B6 daily

Discussion: Also called the Ulnar Tunnel Syndrome. This is the most common peripheral entrapment of the Ulnar nerve. Nearly always due to a displacement of the Pisiform or Hamate carpal bones.
Symptoms: Pain or sensory
alteration on the medial aspect
of the hand coinciding with
Ulnar nerve distribution.

Examination Findings: Manual Muscle Testing will
reveal a weakness of the Flexor Digiti Minimi. The
weakness will be negated by challenging the offending
bones in the vector of correction.
General Treatment Protocol:
1. Realign the Pisiform (usually) either medially or
laterally as indicated.
Structural Support - wrist braces or tape.
Patient Instructions: Avoid leaning on hand or breaking
bricks.

Treatment Conditions
Joint Subluxations
Correct the muscular imbalances, then challenge the distal
Humerus, proximal Ulna and Radius
subluxation in the following vectors:
1. Anterior to posterior2. Posterior to anterior3. Medial to lateral4. Lateral to medial5. Medial rotation6. Lateral rotation
Extremities do not possess the rebound phenomenon
witnessed in the vertebral challenge. Therefore correct in
the opposite direction of the vector that inhibits a normally
functioning muscle.

Treatment Conditions
Lateral Epicondylitis a.k.a. Tennis elbow
Discussion: Fairly common malady with some sources
relating that as little as 5% of cases actually attributed to
playing tennis.
Symptoms: pain over the lateral aspect of the elbow.
Examination Findings: Palpable tenderness. Manual
Muscle Testing will reveal inhibition of one or all of the
following - Wrist Extensors, Supinator, Brachioradialis.
If no inhibition found in the clear, test after a) stretching,
b) contracting, c) pincing, d) repetitively or e) reactively.

91
Treatment Conditions
General Treatment Protocol:
Restore normal 1) Muscle function, 2) Joint motion, 3)
Nutritional & 4) Structural support. Employ exercises only
after these four criteria have been met.
1. Facilitate muscle(s) through appropriate kinesiological
techniques. Most commonly prescribed procedures are
Origin / Insertion and Fascial Release.
2. Therapy localize to each of the 3 joints. Restore normal
juxtaposition to any joint found to be dysfunctioning
through Chiropractic Adjustive Therapy.

92
Treatment Conditions
3. Nutritional Support - manganese, Vitamin C & E, whole
adrenal for ligament recovery. Raw calcium (phosphatase)
for the injured muscles.
Natural anti-histamines, anti-inflammatories, proteolytic
enzymes as needed.
Therapy Localize over painful area, observe what nutrients
minimize pain and negate the positive Therapy
Localization.
When the Gustatory Receptors receive beneficial neurological
stimulus, Orthopedic tests that were previously positive
will often elicit an immediate negative response while the
patient is tasting the biochemical proponents necessary for
healing.

Treatment Conditions
4. Structural support : Elbow braces or supports.
Patient Instructions: RICE - rest, ice, compression,
elevation. Rehabilitative exercises after applied
kinesiological corrections have stabilized.
I.e. Muscles elicit normal facilitation with no pain. Now
patient can safely perform rehabilitative exercises or return
to normal activities... and not before.
