Nutritional Muscle Testing is a comprehensive assessment of your body’s nutritional deficiencies. This testing will identify which supplements your body needs to help you achieve optimal health.

The testing will show how your nervous system, digestive system and cardiovascular system are functioning. We also discover which key hormones you have a deficiency of in order to determine what foods you need to avoid so they don’t trigger an adverse reaction in the body.

We have found through our testing that people often have sensitivities to fruit and vegetables as well as the proteins in animal meats. Our testing has allowed many of our patients to enjoy a healthier lifestyle by discovering which foods they can now eat without any adverse reactions.

Many of our patients have lost weight, improved their digestion and increased their energy levels because this testing helped them discover what foods were triggering a negative reaction in their body.

How do we evaluate?

Utilizing a technique call BioField Testing, the practitioner first starts by introducing muscle response testing. This non-invasive technique is a way to understand how one’s nervous system is functioning. Muscle response testing, also called applied kinesiology, is a method where a practitioner gently tests how your muscles respond to light pressure. The idea is that changes in muscle reactivity can reveal how your body reacts to different things—like foods, substances, or emotions. It’s often used to explore balance, stress, and overall wellbeing in the body.

Does it involve any lab work?

No.

Due to the various factors; influences on levels, time it takes to become well acquainted with reading labs, and potentially high cost of running multiple labs over a period of time, our office has decided to not use lab work as a foundation for recommendations. Occasionally, a practitioner will request basic bloodwork to make sure nothing is seriously out of range, but this will often be an additional service. As a result, our office charges a $50 consultation fee when labs findings are discussed.
