Applied Kinesiology

One More Clue About How Your Body Is Working

Applied Kinesiology is gentle muscle testing. Dr. Giudice uses it during your exam. It helps him see the full picture. It’s never used alone.

What This Is

Applied Kinesiology uses gentle manual muscle testing to assess muscle responses. Dr. Giudice considers these observations alongside your medical history and physical exam to help guide your care.

What It Is Not

This is not a strength test, diagnostic tool, or standalone treatment, and does not replace medical care or lab testing.

Often Used For

Applied Kinesiology is included as part of a broader examination for muscle or joint pain, movement issues, and complex health concerns.

How It Works

Dr. Giudice combines it with the rest of your exam.

During testing you hold a position. He applies light pressure and notes what he feels.

He then looks at that next to:

  • Your health history

  • Your neurologic exam

  • Your orthopedic exam

  • Any lab work

Together these help guide choices about adjustments, soft tissue work, exercises or nutrition.

What a Visit Looks Like

Gentle. Quick. Fully clothed.

You stay in your clothes. Testing should not hurt. It’s built into your regular exam or treatment visit. Not a separate appointment.

If anything feels uncomfortable tell Dr. Giudice. He’ll change what he’s doing.

How It Guides Your Care

What gets tested depends on you.

Your concerns. Your history. Your exam. These decide what’s checked and how the results are used.

Every recommendation comes from the full picture. Not from muscle testing alone.

Part of One Plan

It supports the rest of your care.

What Dr. Giudice learns can shape your adjustments in Neurologically Based Chiropractic Care. Or your exercises in Neuro Orthopedic Rehab. Or the next steps in Functional Medicine / Nutrition.
