What is Nutrition Response Testing?

Nutrition Response Testing is a non-invasive system of assessing the body’s organs, systems and functions to determine all areas of the body that are functioning less than optimally, what caused that dysfunction, and ultimately what the body needs to heal naturally. We are able to uncover all toxicities and deficiencies in the body, so we can begin to safely and effectively detox and rebalance the body system as one. Basically, your body is trying to tell you why you feel like shit, and muscle testing is how we find out what the body is saying.

Sooooo like… How Does It Work?:

Muscle testing is the form of applied Kinesiology. The concept of muscle testing is that the body responds to stress or remedy in an instant on the cellular level. By applying light force to a limb such at the arm, we can determine if the body response is a positive or negative one instantly, which provides information on exactly what the body needs.

Nutrition Response Testing, through muscle testing, allows your own body to communicate on a cellular level where imbalances are occurring, exactly what areas of the body they are occurring, and the causes of these imbalances.

Examples of imbalances in the body are metabolic weight issues, digestive distress, fertility complications, hormonal imbalance, mood mental health diagnosis, restlessness, fatigue, skin issues, physical pain, chronic infections, auto-immune diagnoses and many more!

The Nutrition Response Testing procedure is performed lying down with your arm extended straight. The assessment is done against a strong muscle indicator (immovable arm) with light touch by the practitioner. If the tested area on the body is under stress, the Autonomic Nervous System will respond by reducing energy to the extended arm, meaning the arm will weaken and drop with the same light pressure of touch. This drop in energy allows the practitioner to know that area is under stress. Using this same process we are then able to find the root cause of that stress, and ultimately what remedy the body needs in order to clear the stress and recover the organ/system.

While many areas may show up as stressed on the scan, we are able to narrow it down to the one priority area that started this “degenerative party” in the first place. After locating the main area of distress, we want to uncover what began that stress to the body; we check the most common stressors that can cause symptoms of poor health.

These stressors include foreign chemical toxicity, hidden food sensitivities, heavy metal toxicity, mineral deficiencies, hormonal levels, immune challenges (parasite, bacteria, viral, fungal/mold), scar interferences and even emotions. When these stressors accumulate in our body over time, they can impair the function of major endocrine glands, metabolic glands and organs that are crucial to our health.

Once the underlying issues are discovered, the next step in Nutrition Response Testing is to see what nutrients your body may need to respond properly and balance this toxic overload.

When your body receives the proper nutrients in the forms of whole food essential/whole herb supplements, vitamins/minerals, or detox support, the body is able to address these toxins and rebalance itself. When this happens, symptoms lessen and, in most cases, disappear.

Your healing is in your hands:

Once the practitioner is able to determine the organs, systems and functions that are prioritized for targeting in each session, you are provided with a supplemental protocol and lifestyle guidelines that act as an accountability plan. This is not a “diet” or strict way of living. We want to help you make small changes for sustainable, long-lasting results. We are here to educate and guide you into optimized health: from there, the healing is up to you! The more consistent you are with your plan, the easier it will be to create sustaining habits, and peel back the layers of symptoms.

What happens after our first session?

Each session looks very similar, every visit there will be a full in-depth assessment. We continue to shift protocols as the body unveils new layers of toxicity to pull back. We are not looking to put you on will be a “permanent solution”. As we believe if we work on small specific projects, as the body guides us to, then we can bring your body back to a state of natural healing and homeostasis.  

The amount of sessions depends on the severity of your symptoms/diagnosis. It is likely you will be seeing great results within a few weeks, but we still go deeper from there to ensure whatever is holding the body back, doesn’t return. Yes, we are a natural practice, but we still don’t want you to need us forever. Allow us to just be your guiding hand to return your body back to the state where it can heal itself!!
