How can muscle testing identify your health challenge

Foreign.

So for somebody who's, who's new to the word or the phrase muscle testing, because some people might be, you know, individuals like looking for help, they may, they may not be familiar with that term. What's. What's kind of an operating definition so that we can give everyone a good kind of sense of what muscle testing is.

I think keeping it simple is the best. And muscle testing is a really non invasive way of using a reflex, I. E. An arm, a leg, a finger to give the body a. To analyze. Analyze systems, organs, areas of the body, areas of life. Right. For essentially what brings it strength, like I. E. Gives it energy or what makes it weak, like sort of take, you know, taking our energy away or taking. Eliminating that life force, I guess, is a good way of looking at that. So keeping it very simple.

So with muscle testing it, there's a strategic way to ask a question. So maybe you could describe the process. So let's say, let's say I come into you, I've got, you know, an underlying issue and, and you know, I fill out a form. I'm assuming that I would fill out a form and then we would review that. At what point would you introduce muscle testing and what would that be like for me?

So for me. And remind me if this is a video recording because then I know whether I can.

Yeah, so this is video.

Yeah, great. Okay, perfect. So A, I talk with my hands, but B, then I can actually kind of do a little demonstration. So for us, muscle testing comes right off the bat. It is what we do. So there is no, like, I do another thing and then sometimes I do muscle testing. It's really the primary. And. And for those that don't know, I had a bricks and mortar practice for several years from 2011 through last November, and then closed the bricks and mortar and have been working virtually ever since. So those who come to me now are pretty well set up for this is what I do just at this point, you know, a. With our marketing, which is really on and be word of mouth. It's people kind of know what they're getting into at that point and they have very little explaining to do in person. I think you. It's the kind of. You can't believe it until you feel it. It's not, it's not even a seeing thing. Right. Because people could look at that like you're holding an arm locked and then it unlocks and. Well, couldn't anybody do that? Right. So I get them present to, you know, when you're at the doctor's office when you're little and you're having a physical, and at that time, you know, they take their little tool and they tap your knee and your leg kicks out straight, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. What does that have to do with muscle testing? Well, that little action is asking the body to create a response. So if your knee, if your leg didn't automatically kick out straight, your doctor would start scratching his or her head to say, there's something not working properly here. And then they would dive into their set of, you know, research and treatment options to determine what that next step might be. So with muscle testing, we could actually use. I can set this back a little bit here. So in person, we teach and train with what we call a lock muscle. So I would have you extend your arm out to 90 degrees in front of you, and I'd let you know that I'm going to apply a little bit of pressure right above the wrist. And as I apply that pressure down to the floor, you're matching my pressure as if you are pushing up to the ceiling. But it's almost more of an intention, right? You're kind of intentioning that you're going to push up to the ceiling. And when we match that pressure, one of two things is going to happen. Either there's going to be a nice locked response, your muscle is going to automatically lock up, or it's going to sort of drop and give way, which is what we call an unlock muscle. And there really is no in between. A lot of people who are learning are like, yeah, but wait, it kind of ratches, it kind of wobbles, or it gets too strong. Right? They recruit and then they overexert and they're kind of pumping. And that also is not a locked muscle. So from a teaching perspective, we teach there's a lock muscle and there's an unlock muscle. And each of those things gives us information. So it's kind of like step one, establish that there's that locked muscle. And, you know, for fun, once that's established and when we were in person, you know, you sort of see all the stuff people come in with the bag, the phone, their coffee or soda or water bottle, or most people's water, you know, is better than, say, soda. And so I could say, like, hey, let's. Why don't you hold your water bottle for a quick second in this hand? Go ahead and extend your arm out, and I'm just going to see what happens. Oh, you have a lock muscle. Your body says, this is good for me. You know, I'm. I benefit from this. But how about let's hold your Android, you know, your phone in this hand, and I apply a little bit of pressure, and it unlocks. And the unlock experience is inexperience, right? It's like, what? No, do that again. That was super weird. Let me shake off my arm, right? And I think people don't expect it to happen as easily as it does, but it's just a reflex. It's not, how big are the guns? How strong are your biceps? Has nothing to do with that. It's an immediate response of your nervous system. So I'll often walk across the room to the light switch and say, so we could either turn the switch on, or we could turn the switch off, or we could find out, say, why your switch is turned off and turn it back on. If we've got a kiddo bouncing around a room and a mother has come to us because they're getting reports from the teacher at school that this little guy is creating some havoc in the classroom, we might want to find out how to turn that switch, how to dim it a little bit. With muscle testing, we can really dive into so many realms. We can dive into the physical or the structural. We can dive into the emotional or energetic. We can dive into the world of toxins and impurities. We can dive into the world of why bugs that, you know, should kind of coexist happily within our microbiome are turning pathogenic or infectious, if you will, by asking questions with muscle testing.
