off topic ART or Muscle Testing

[isali]

The premise is that the organism responds to the exigencies of life in a manner that takes the form of clinical manifestations, and that the remedies which profile a similia will alleviate the morbid expressions. The issue is whether its application may be assessed in a manner other than a change in the observable morphology?

My experience is affirmative. There are various techniques for making such assessments and I will share what I have found to be very, very easy.

The intention is to evaluate the organism's responses to anything brought within its sphere of energetic influence. The question is one of assessing a change in the muscular responses.

The patient should sit or stand before a table with the intended remedies or items (could be food) for testing on it. The second step requires establishing that there is a reference point from which a reaction of the organism may be made evident.

Assessment is made by asking the pt. to raise an extended arm to shoulder height. Ask the pt. to resist your downward pressure against the extended arm. A subjective & common assessment is shared by both the physician and the pt. It is necessary that you are able to weaken and strengthen the patient's responses.

My method of strengthening and weakening the patient's responses is to utilise the energetic pathways of oriental medicine, with known direction of energetic coursing on all pathways. I choose for these tests a pathway called the 'governor' or 'du' pathway. It courses along the posterior spinous process in an upward direction. A motion with one's hand upward, in the direction of the coursing within this system, will strengthen the responses of the organism. A motion with one's hand downward, against the direction of the coursing within this system will weaken the responses of the organism.

This step as a stand alone usually provokes bedazzlement by the pt. It's importance is in the establishment of the reactive character of the vital force to affects upon the organism.

I choose to weaken the patient's responses and assess a differentiation of those remedies which provide a strengthening of reaction. Having weakened the responses of the organism, one is then able to continue and introduce items within the energetic zone of influence and assess whether the pt. is strengthened.

Having completed your intake, Dx, and Tx possibilities you can assess their relative impact upon the organism by placing them one at a time in the other hand which is not upraised. With the arm extended and a remedy in the other hand ask the pt. to resist your downward pressure against the upraised arm. Both pt. and physician will be aware of a response which will strengthen or weaken the reaction of the organism.

The premise is that everything is an energetic presentation; that the organism reacts to anything brought within its energetic zone of influence; that it is necessary to establish a frame of reference for the organism in question; that this is accomplished by either strengthening or weakening its reactions; that a method for achieving this objective is to utilise the known pathways with known direction of the oriental medical system; that one is then able to subjectively experience, along with the pt., the reactions of the organism.

I offer a very brief synopsis of a case which came to my office. A pt. whose clinical manifestations were of hyper and hypothyroid. The pt. was Dx 15 years earlier as being hypothyroid. Additionally, she presented herself with goiter of the right side. Her Tx had been armour for this entire period of time. The short version is that a muscle testing raised the issue of disharmony within the hypothalamus-pituitary axis, by use of specific sarcodes, singularly and collectively, along with remedies.

Nine months have resulted in no goiter, no armour, no synthroid, and a very different & favorable clinical picture. Much was done during this period; however, the tool of muscle testing as I described above proved enabling both Dx and Tx.

Life appears with differing energetic presentations and we have developed many conceptual manner of response to better understand it.
