Applied Kinesiology
"Most forms of traditional medicine have a means of determining which systems in the body are under stress and need support. Applied Kinesiology, and associated forms of muscle testing, allow us to focus treatments where the body needs it the most."
- Dr. Andrew von Plitt, ND
Let the Body Tell you What it Needs
Every ancient system of medicine has a means of determining a person's state of health and areas of stress in their system. Chinese Medicine's pulse diagnosis is an example of an ancient means of listening to the body. Applied Kinesiology similarly uses manual muscle testing to determine which systems in a person's body are stressed and what treatment modalities could best help support those systems. This allows for treatments to be customized for each patient based on their individual needs. Dr. Andrew von Plitt, ND is certified in Applied Kinesiology and uses this skillset frequently to tailor treatments for his patients. There are patients who travel from out of state to see Dr. von Plitt for this highly personalized support because of the positive results they have experienced.
