Applied Kinesiology in Campbell

What Can Applied Kinesiology Treat?

Applied Kinesiology (AK) was developed in 1964 by Dr. George J. Goodheart, D.C., a chiropractor who discovered a connection between muscle strength and organ function. His findings revealed that correcting muscular imbalances can have a positive influence on overall health. Today, Applied Kinesiology is recognized as a holistic diagnostic and therapeutic approach that utilizes precise muscle testing to evaluate the body’s structural, chemical, and emotional balance. Chiropractors observe specific muscle responses to identify imbalances or dysfunctions within the nervous system, organs, or energy pathways. By integrating principles from chiropractic care, functional neurology, nutrition, and acupuncture, AK offers a comprehensive approach to assessing how well the body’s systems communicate and function together. Applied Kinesiology can be used as part of an integrative plan to help identify and address a wide range of health concerns, including:

Whiplash

Neck Pain

Back Pain

Headaches

Dizziness

Vertebral Subluxation

Disc Injuries

Sciatica

Pinched Nerves

How Applied Kinesiology Works

Applied Kinesiology relies on the principle that the body’s muscles reflect the integrity of the nervous system. When an area of the body is stressed — physically, chemically, or emotionally — it often shows weakness or altered tone in related muscles.

During an AK evaluation:

  1. Muscle Testing: Our chiropractor applies gentle pressure to specific muscles to observe their response.
  2. Challenge Testing: Subtle stimuli (such as touching reflex points, tasting nutrients, or changing body position) are introduced to identify areas of stress or dysfunction.
  3. Corrections: Based on findings, our chiropractor may use chiropractic adjustments, nutritional supplementation, acupressure, or other techniques to restore proper communication and balance within the body.

“My back was not in a good place when I found Smith Family Chiropractic. I raced motocross all my life and when I hit my 50s, my back finally had enough. I had old compression fracture injury in my lower back that was making life and sleep difficult. I couldn't avoid it any longer. Over a year of guided treatment and focused correction around the two primary injuries, I can say my life and sleep has improved dramatically. My quality of life is so much better. I'm not someone who likes to go to the doctor or have my neck adjusted, but Dr. Smith walked me through everything and showed me the care and support that comes with going to a family practice. They treat yo like family. I will always have the injury area on my back, but it now doesn't inhibit my movement and sleep. I am extremely grateful for finding the Smith Family."

Dr. Smith's office and staff are wonderful! I started seeing Dr. Smith after a car accident about 4 years ago. He was thorough and professional - walking me through the process and answering all of my questions. I now see both Dr. Smith and Dr. Valentino. They give excellent nutrition and health advice. I have learned a ton from them. Thank you - thank you - thank you!!!"

“I have been treated by Dr. Smith for several years.I was in a car accident, hit from behind, and I needed to be adjusted.I have had great results and now just go in bi-weekly for what I call my tune-ups. He even helps me when my allergies flare up. He works on my sinuses and when I step out of the office, I feel relieved and I can breath again. I highly recommend Dr. Smith and the atmosphere is inviting and friendly."

Many thanks to the entire Smith family, the entire family is very good and kind people, if one day we need a chiropractor again, we will definitely go to you again."
