In Applied Kinesiology, muscles are seen
as related to specific organs or systems through the acupuncture meridian network.
Through muscle testing, the individual's structural, chemical and mental health
is determined, and any imbalances can then be corrected
The theory of kinesiology
encompasses the study of the biological components of human movement including
the anatomical, physiological, neurological, biochemical, and biomechanical. Also
studied is the relationship between the quality of human movement and the overall
health of the human organism.
Theoretical knowledge of kinesiology is applied
in many areas including physical therapy, occupational therapy, chiropractic,
osteopathy, exercise physiology, and ergonomics. The approach of these applications
can be therapeutic, preventive, or high-performance. The applications of kinesiology
can also incorporate knowledge from other disciplines such as psychology, sociology,
cultural studies, ecology, evolutionary biology, and anthropology. Related interdisciplinary
