Muscle Testing

Hi all

So over the weekend I went to see an acupuncturist who specializes in muscle testing (Came highly recommended by my LLMD) to see if we could get a better diagnosis of my co-infections or whatever else is wrong with me.

The whole thing is crazy, I don't know how it works, but after seeing what he did, I trust him.

(This link here sort of explains it http://www.boxboroacupuncture.com/naet.html, it's muscle testing in combination with NAET)

Basically he went through kits of bacteria to see what I react to, and he found Lyme (which we knew) and Pertussis, which I reacted badly to the vaccine for when I was a baby. No co-infections.

He also said my thyroid is "on the fritz" and my adrenals are "shot." All this by just looking at me and touching areas of my body! He held up the pertussis vial against my head and my right arm dropped and he said "That's what's causing your headaches."

Of course I'm a little skeptical, as I'm not feeling any better after 1 treatment, but he found the pertussis before we even mentioned I reacted badly to it when I was little. The whole thing was kind of like magic. I hope he's right and this will help my treatment progress.

I encourage you all to look into this for diagnosis. I'm sure all practioners are not created equal, but he's even in network with my insurance since it's considered acupuncture.

Yeah, I think my practioner does a combination of that as well. Very interesting stuff!

Just wanted to bump this thread--- my LLMD did a nasal swab to confirm the infection found by muscle testing (pertussis) and she got a call back from the lab and it is positive. So the muscle testing/NAET found an infection that is now confirmed by traditional science. Crazy.

I've had this infection all my life and would never have found it otherwise. Just wanted to share this and encourage everyone to check out alternate ways to diagnose if you are having problems healing!

Hi Sarah- any updates to your treatment with the muscle testing and NAET?

I just saw a practitioner today who does this and it was pretty interesting. I tested poorly on a number of things, the worst being eggs, b complex, vitamin A mix (oil soluble vitamins), and mineral mix. He is not a replacement for my LLMD, I am still on abx, but felt I had underlying issues that were keeping me from progressing through treatment.

He said I need to go in no more than once a week for treatments and some are bad enough that may require more than 1 treatment. Then, after all this, we begin supplementing with the right supplements for leaky gut, etc.

I want to believe this will work but at a minimum of $50 per treatment (after 260 today), I feel like I need more reassurance! :)

But he did say they could teach me to do muscle testing on myself. That would save me $ in purchasing the wrong vitamins and supps, etc long term I guess.

Let me know how it is going for you!

Ok so what reaction one must have to the herbs? This is crazy, my 9 year old kept telling me some herbs did something to her. She was about a foot away from them and they were sealed!

She never makes things up, but I just don't know how to use this info. She'd pick up a sealed herb from the counter and she'd describe a positive or a negative reaction to it when she would put it close to her face. I guess she was doing her own muscle testing lol

I'm talking about organic herbs that treat Lyme and co that she was playing with, but I am not sure how I can use the info she gives me. Dr K is using muscle testing too and he gives lectures on it. It must have some merit because his lectures are not cheap. He teaches everyone that attends how to use it. I'd love to learn more about it if anyone would care to share.

I keep trying to understand what y'all are describing. What is it that the docs are doing to produce results. Could someone please describe the procedure or items or words or wanding they are doing. You have completely lost me. It sounds helpful but I just can't figure out. I'm so new and everyone writes like they understand what they are writing about but as a newbie (helping a friend) I can't imagine what it can be. Please don't laugh at me. Thanks for patience. Pat

I know what acupuncture and MD and LLMD is, also PT and RN and specialties like infectious disease and neurologist etc.

Thanks Mister Mike . Another question please..

If I have a tomato allergy and I go into the grocery store and pick up a sealed glass jar of tomato sauce (maybe on shelf for a year) , how does that make me react. Same for bottled vitamins. What is the reaction. How is it possible through glass .

I don't understand how you can react to a liquid (herbal, tincture , bacteria ) in an enclosed jar placed in your hand or waived over certain areas of your body, or touching your forehead. What am I missing.

Same goes for herbs in a plastic bag except for maybe the odor of it or the direct contact with its powder residue on the outside of the bag.

Also, if you push down on your somewhat extended arm a few times, lactic acid starts to build and your reaction would not be the same on subsequent pushes. Lower your arm for 15-20 seconds then later raise and push and you
have a slightly stronger reaction.

Also, is the bacteria (pathogen) dead in those bottles .where did they come from. Also mentioned was that you can learn to test yourself--how do you do that. This is an expensive journey

I'm very interested in this topic as my friend is ill with Lyme . We all are desperate for the elusive cure and the correct ingredients are such a hit and miss. . I'm not against seeking outside alternative help but it has to make me somehow convinced to try it .we have done the LLMD, ID, acupuncturist, DC, major U S clinic. Thanks you for your reply. This forum is wonderful and the moderators deserve so much more then words. 🌺
