Muscle Testing, an Introduction.
Self-Awareness.
The use of Muscle Testing (Kinesiology, Touch for Health) finds that the physical and spiritual parts of the body are clearly aware of what they need and do not need in order to return to or maintain a balanced healthy lifestyle and life. Once this testing skill has been learned, relevant questions requiring a YES or NO response can be asked.
Definitive answers regarding all aspects of one's recovery can be obtained by a skilled facilitator ... which can include oneself. Such answers have always proven to be correct. That is, if the muscle testing is carried out carefully and in a non-compromising manner, AND, if the questions are specific and relevant enough for both the tester and the subject --- the answers are correct.
EXAMPLE:
Asking the question,
"Does this person need a lot of vitamin C ?"
is a largely useless question.
"A lot" will often signify widely differing amounts in the perception of any 2 or 3 people.
Asking the question,
"Does this person need 4-1000 mg timed release tablets now ?"
is much more definitive and much less likely to result in miscommunication and errors. This form of testing can be learned by most people who have a desire to do so. Surely 100% accuracy is preferential to 75%, 50%, or 25%.
You need a dependable decision-making strategy.
You can waste a lot of time, money, and energy, OR, you can learn to do this efficiently and effectively. That means you have to determine 2 or 3 times daily which supplements YOU can best benefit from, AND, the exact dosage. These will continually change for your body is constantly reacting and responding to a host of changing stresses and inputs. I know of only two dependable options for this: Spiritual Guidance, and, Muscle Testing.
I found out about Spiritual Guidance in time and devoted myself to learning the skills to obtaining accurate access to it. Many people can muscle test themselves. Many people can assist others by muscle testing them. I could not. There is information on these pages to assist you towards Spiritual Guidance and there are references for muscle testing. Increasing numbers of Holistic health practitioners and facilitators are learning this skill. Be aware that not everyone is well skilled or consistently accurate with all people.
Thinking VS Knowing!
You can take all of the symptoms, desires, and goals that you are aware of and rationalize what you should need and be almost totally incorrect. How can this happen?
First, we are seldom very good at understanding ourselves and being aware of ourselves unless we have made a sincere effort to be. Even then, we have to have good resources and a good mentor to help us and be gently and painfully honest with us. It is just so easy to only see what we would like to see and to deny what we hope isn't there.
Secondly, it matters little what the subject is that we would like an answer to, we don't know all the factors and influences involved. We could be the most informed and expert person in that field but we still don't know everything. And quite often, if we knew what all the factors and influences were, their number would confuse us and their inter-relationships would confound us.
Thirdly, if any of your concerns involves your considering your interaction with another person, you have just multiplied your possible numbers of misinterpretations, assumptions, expectations, projections. Now, unless the other person is highly skilled at communication and self-awareness -- the fact that the two of you understand even part of what you are trying to communicate is almost a miracle.
Next, you want to consider that you may have a personal problem to which many people around you will contribute. Some may help. Some may hinder. Others will seem to simply be there. If you ask 20 experts which therapy or medicine you should take, you will likely get between 10 and 20 different answers. Each one has their own bias. Each one only knows so much about you. I often see people making themselves more sick or wasting their resources because in their rush to get better they combine health improvement approaches which together are counterproductive. They actually become worse than if they had done nothing.
If you want to take the most efficient (biggest bang for your buck) or the most effective (best selection for fastest change), only God knows the answer. Using prayer or meditation to beg to get your own way won't work. It is not that prayer doesn't work. It is that pride and greed don't work. If you learn to receive Spiritual Guidance, as is spoken of throughout this site, you will have only to ask, in Reverence and no-emotion, and, you will have the answer.
The only other way that I am familiar with which is consistent is the artful use of muscle testing.
The interesting thing is that muscle testing works just as well on mental or emotional issues as on physical body parts. Basically one can put one's attention on something and then test for a weak or strong response. That is something we can use.
See, the body is not as much of a liar as the conscious mind is. It is much more likely to give an honest assessment of what is going on than the person's analytical thinking is. The body will give answers to things that are submerged and unknown to the conscious processes, and it will give answers without being biased by wishful thinking or social maneuvering.
Many different muscles could be used for the test.
The easiest is usually to use the big deltoid muscles or the arms. The client stretches one arm straight out in front of her, or straight out to the side. The facilitator instructs her to resist and then presses down on the arm. And she notices if the arm holds up to being pressed down, or if it gives in and becomes weak. There is a certain knack to sensing it, but once one has got it, it is a very finite sign.
One would pick a muscle that tests strong when we don't put attention on anything in particular. Then we will know that it means something when it tests weak when we bring up particular subjects.
There are much more elaborate systems of using and interpreting muscle testing. Different muscles seem to correspond to different organs along the lines of the meridians. If you want to study and use that, that could be useful, but it is beyond the scope of what we get into here. We simply find a muscle that is usually strong and we agree with the person that it will be our test. This agreement becomes to governing factor.
Basically, strong means "Yes" and weak means "No".
Whether a Yes or a No answer is most desirable depends on what we ask for, but most often we will ask in such a way that a strong response is good. As in "Do you feel good about yourself" - Test - should be strong, meaning "Yes". If it is weak, we could then work on the issue of feeling good about oneself, with our usual processing techniques. And then, when we appear to have gotten somewhere, we could do a muscle test again to confirm it. If it is now strong when we ask the same question, then we have probably done a good job.
Muscle testing is a very finite way of testing.
If nothing else, it appears very finite to the client. It provides a very tangible and convincing "proof" to the client that we have actually gotten a result. The client can much more easily invalidate purely mental and emotional results. Even if she feels good and she has found out something new, she might still convince herself a few days later that it was "just" something she imagined. But if we have tested it and we both realized that what used to be weak is now strong, that might weigh a lot more heavily in the favor of accepting the change that took place.
The muscles really do react to what one thinks and feels and imagines. But the test it fairly honest and unbiased. Whereas a purely analytical assessment of what one feels might not be as honest.
The facilitator can use muscle testing according to preference. It is just one of the tools that are available. You don't have to use it for anything at all, or you can use it for every single issue that you work on with the client, that is up to you.
If you do a number of tests after one another the arm will eventually become tired. One can then switch over to the other arm, or take a rest for a moment.
Muscle testing can be used for a comprehensive test of items from a list or arrived at some other systematic way."

How Muscle Testing Is Done on Humans
You almost have to see this done, or have it done to you, to believe in the absolutely unequivocal nature of the muscle response...
The normal [common] way of testing is to use the extended arm, as though as a lever; held out perpendicular to the body (whether the subject is standing, sitting, or lying down doesn't matter), it either can or can't easily be pushed downward by the tester. Usually, it's a clear yes or no, and when it's no, it's really no!
(When it isn't unequivocal, the subject [may] needs to be "rebalanced" by placing one fingertip on his or her Conception Vessel 17 point (between the nipples) and a fingertip from the other hand on the "sea of energy" point about 1 1/2" below the navel. Tap both fingers for 20-30 seconds and try the indicator muscle again— it should be strong when there is no allergen present. Do this until the indicator muscle remains strong.)

Many self-described medical intuitives prescribe for their clients according to the complaints described by the client and the supplements and modalities they are personally aware of. When I have requested Spiritual Guidance for confirmation, the results are often dramatically different, and, dramatically more personal to the client.
My use of "many" and "some" is intentional.
It does not mean "all". I know of only one medical intuitive whom I expect augments her intuition with Spiritual Guidance with the result evident in the outcome. Her clients always improve or get better with a minimum of expense.
The evident difference between herself and many others is that she is calm and reverent in her composure. She listens well, uses muscle testing, and is tactful and compassionate. She is more interested in helping others than in being rich or famous. Like myself, her clients all come by referral. Marketing costs too much and becoming a martyr against the prevailing medical autocracy restricts one's ability to help others.
Using intuition and Spiritual Guidance together is risky.
Unless you become singularly proficient in accessing Spiritual Guidance, how would you be able to guard against interference from your intuition, Ego, SuperEgo, Unconscious energy blocks, social inferences and threats? And, you can only do so by developing that skill with a motivation strong enough and self-disciplining enough to root out, by testing and counter-testing, or by feedback from another person who is more adept, the errors.
A failure to aggressively learn from one's errors leaves one to the delusion of being better than one is. Rational mythologizing and intuitive expectation and assumption can keep one in enthusiastic self-delusion. The person who plays with half-truths is often a person who has forgotten where the truth is. Half-truths are very persuasive for unlike lies they are difficult for most people to readily detect.
