Applied Kinesiology / Muscle Testing

Applied Kinesiology is a systematic and proven method of evaluation and assessment of the body which uses changes in muscle strength to make its determinations. It focuses on the structural, physiological, and emotional state of the patient and the proper balance between them. Hundreds of directive indications can be drawn about the body using this method of analysis: however, Dr. Schroter does not use this to diagnose, but to merely direct him using other signs and symptoms to draw his conclusions.

Some muscle testing is traditional in that it is neurological in origin; i.e., if you have a fifth lumbar disc bulge, you will have a weak hamstring on the involved side. Others are not traditional; i.e., if you hold something in your left hand that you are allergic to, any strong muscle in the body, when challenged, will show weakness.

Regardless, Dr. Schroter is an experienced Applied Kinesiology practitioner who is able to make many assessments about your body and the things you need to get healthy.
