Muscle Response Testing

What exactly is muscle testing?

Muscle testing is designed to bring subconscious information into conscious awareness. Within and surrounding the body is an intricate electrical network of pure energy. Because energy runs through the muscles in your body, if anything impacts your electrical system that does not maintain or enhance your body’s balance, your muscles will weaken temporarily. Things that might have an impact on your electrical system are thoughts and emotions, foods, toxins, other substances, and numerous imbalances.

What can we muscle test for endocrine health?

Muscle response testing allows us to ask your unique being exactly what it needs to come into balance. We can utilize muscle testing for different supplements to support and balance your hormones naturally.
