I am certified in applied kinesiology and have taken hundreds of hours in other techniques from kinesiology experts around the world.

No true healer will ever say their technique cures 100% of the time. To make such a statement is to completely ignore the complexity of the human condition. Making such a statement means that you think you completely understand the human condition at the mind, body, and soul levels. I have seen dozens of healers say they could cure everything. In truth, they couldn't even heal their own suffering. The greatest cause of human suffering is our own minds and false sense of ego. Most kinesiological techniques do not come close to addressing this issue.

Kinesiology has wonderful potential but it also has limitations and drawbacks. Very, very often the healer creates what they are trying to treat with their own impression of what they think the patient has or how the patient should be treated.

Kinesiology is very subjective and there are hundreds of variations of it out there that all completely contradict with themselves. George Goodheart, the founder of applied kinesiology, called all these techniques his 'bastard children.'

You put this post on the debate forum, so I will give you a debate. There are almost no positive studies confirming either the validity or the benefits of kinesiology. Yoshiaki Omura is one of the only kinesiologists that has performed any studies at all. Even Omura's studies are biased and not easy to replicate. All of them can be found on Pubmed, however.

There are many ways to perform kinesiology: muscle-testing, pulse testing, leg length checking, occipital drop, arm length, electro-dermal screening, abdominal palpation, heart rate variability, and light palpation. Almost none of these methods have any proof that shows they are valid diagnostic tools.

I have personally learned how to use all the methods listed above. While I have had many great results with these methods, it is far better to combine objective markers that can be replicated with a more intuitive type treatment. Even one of my best teachers, who was world famous for his applied kinesiology, never said he could treat everyone. He only said he could help 'most people, most of the time.' However, even an MD who uses no alternative methods will claim that he helps 'most people, most of the time.'
Without any study on the diagnosis and treatment validity of AK all there is serious problem left. The customer is forced to only believe in the practitioner's hype and testimonials. This is not good enough. There is too much hype and not enough truth out there.
