Kinesiology Overview
01
Understanding Kinesiology
The principle of kinesiology emphasizes that muscles do more than just stabilize and move joints; each muscle has a specific biological interaction with the body's organs through the nervous, circulatory, and meridian systems, influencing both health and disease. By utilizing specialized sensory stimulation and motor response testing, doctors trained in kinesiology can perform muscle response tests to gather diagnostic information. This allows for the creation of personalized treatment protocols aimed at correcting the patient’s impairment factors.
02
The Essence of Kinesiology
Kinesiology, which literally means "the study of movement," involves understanding how muscles provide movement for the body. Each of the 635 muscles in the body requires the coordination of up to thirty-five factors for proper contraction and relaxation. Achieving muscle-skeletal integrity is a complex process that demands a professional skilled in studying all the body's systems.
