Foot problems are one of the most common conditions I see in my practice. And amongst them, over-pronation is usually the “cause” of most foot complaints. What’s the cause of that, right? We’ll get there. Over-pronation refers to when the “foot rolls in excessively” (some degree of pronation is normal) or the feet go “flat” [...]

According to Medline Plus and the Merriam Webster® medical dictionary, dysmenorrhea simply means “painful menstruation”. Other sources report that menstrual pain must be significant enough to interfere with normal activities of daily living to be labeled dysmenorrhea. The information in this article applies to painful menstruation regardless of the severity, in addition to cramping or [...]

These pictures came from an article sent to me by Dr. Nelson Marquina, who is the president of USA Laser. They illustrate how the body emits photons of light. We cannot see this light with the naked eye because our eyes are only sensitive to a very small part of the electromagnetic spectrum; that is, [...]

Keep in [...]

In this part of the series I’d like to address how applied kinesiologists use muscle testing. This is essentially our primary diagnostic tool. Don’t get me wrong, we use many other diagnostic tools such as palpation, auscultation (i.e.: a stethoscope), blood, urine, saliva, x-ray, MRI, etc.. It really depends on the extent and nature of [...]
What is Applied Kinesiology? (Part 1 of 3)

To start off, I must give credit where credit is due. applied kinesiology was founded by the late, great George J. Goodheart, Jr., DC, DIBAK, in 1964.
