Reflex Testing (Muscle Kinesiology)

DeFelice Family Dentistry uses a bio-feedback technique called Muscle Response Testing (MRT) to identify a person’s nutritional deficiencies, toxicity impacts, spinal subluxations, dental alignments and balances. Nutritional deficiencies and cumulative toxin impacts are primary causative factors underlying illness and degenerative disease. Spinal subluxations (corrected via chiropractic care), dental misalignments and imbalances interfere with the human body's bio-energy communications system and often need correction for optimal organ, gland and nervous system function. Also known as Applied Kinesiology, MRT is based upon the physics of the human body.

The optimal functioning of the human body requires that each part is contributing effectively to the whole. If any part is not producing the optimum bio electric energy, bio-energy or life-force levels, the body will not nor can it operate efficiently. This disruption or imbalance is the primary genesis of illness.

Knowing how to measure and correct the factors that influence this bio-electric energy production of each part of the body is a key to helping it maintain or regain health.

Evaluating and Measuring Bio-Electric Energy: As stated above, every part of the body generates bio-electric energy through the Autonomic Nervous System. This includes all human organs and glands such as the heart, lungs, liver, colon, thyroid, pancreas, etc. Even specific nutrient stores and toxic stressors stored in the system generate their own bio-electric energy, since they too, are made of atoms.

Researchers, especially those on the fields of acupuncture and electro-dermal screening (the use of computer technology to measure bio-electric energy), have identified points on the body that correspond to each organ, each nutrient store, and each specific category of stored toxin. By using MRT to test these various points, important data can be gathered about the body’s needs and challenges.

In short, MRT testing process is simple and involves using the body as its own battery tester. In a carefully controlled situation, an arm muscle is used to indicate via general strength or weakness which nutrients (vitamins and minerals, etc.,) are bio-compatible with your body type and identify those that may be needed. MRT uses the compared muscle strength to determine the answer.

DeFelice Family Dentistry has developed the use of the MRT process to produce a very accurate evaluation of each patients specific nutritional needs. From this evaluation process the patients detoxification and nutritional plan can be implemented. You can read how the MRT process is applied at Neural Therapy Without Needles and Heavy Metal Detoxification.
