Is there a difference between ART and muscle testing. I am used to muscle testing where they can test whether you have a disease or whether a supplement will work by using arm resistance.
The practitioner pushes on your arm as you try to resist with muscle testing also known as kinesiology.
Is this the same as ART? Hiker

I go to a practitioner who does NAET. She tests by arm resistance too and we determine dosages among other things using this method.
I often read about ART here and they seem similiar.

Scott or GIGI can answer this much better than I can. It is a form of muscle testing. There are many many systems of muscle testing. ART is the one developed by Dr. K.
Here is the website of the developer but off hand, I don't see anything that explains it but you may find something there. http://www.neuraltherapy.com/
Have you done a search here for an explanation? Terry

At a very 30,000 ft level, you are still using an arm to get an indicator of strong or weak. The mechanics of the test however are very different. For example, in most systems, weak is bad. In ART, weak is not always bad. For example, with a pol filter in pace, weak is generally good and strong is generally an indication of "blocked regulation".
Without the pol filter, things essentially reverse.
I have been exposed to ART and numerous forms of muscle testing. I think both provide value if you have a good practitioner, but I do think ART provides a deeper insight into the issues at hand.
I have tested about 60-70 people now and it never ceases to amaze me. I use it regularly to help guide my path. It is like being lost at sea in a storm and having the lighthouse to guide you in.

Just curious Scott, is this a way of testing polarity? If not, what is "pol filter in pace"?
Like you, I use a method of muscle testing (CRA, developed by a DC) to guide my decisions and it helps a great deal. I've been interested in ART and may decide to pursue it at some point.

Should have been "in place".
Pol filter is a polarization filter that allows light to pass through in one angle. We as people emit biophotons or light energy which can be measured using the pol filter for coherence or lack of coherence (health vs. illness).
It also allows us to test for blocked regulation. The "pol" filter is not related to polarity as in north or south but to polarization as in light passing through it at a given angle.

Thanks for saying that Scott. I was always wondering what was that filter my naturopath was using...

I just had my first experience with ART practioners a month ago. I thought it was very helpful.
I take about $1000-$1500/month in meds and supplements due to malabsorption and replacing hormones and the needed stuff to increase deficient neurotransmitters.
Stuff tested falls basically into 3 categories: 1. Blocking-bad 2. Neutral-either need this amount or can live without. 3. Need more of this, 25%,50% more etc.
The program says you have to be off something 2 days to retest with out it.
If you can live without some supplements, etc. for 2 days, then you might get a better idea if you need to continue it.

This is a fair explanation of ART. It is muscle testing. Please note that most people who are ill have what is referred to in ART as blocked regulation. That means that the system cannot be tested; it cannot disclose the information to change itself. Before the body can give the information needed, the practitioner has to "unblock" the regulation and that is an art in itself. Easy for an experienced practitioner.
ART is the only system that I am aware of that works on this basis. It is the task of the practitioner to open the system and that takes a variety of means. Then the body can tell and the practitioner can diagnose and select and test the medicines and remedies needed to help move the body into a healing mode and remain there.
I hope that gives at least a hint of what it is and what it does.
Take care.

Applied Kinesiology is another name for muscle testing.
I don't know a lot about ART but always have thought it is just an electrical way to measure the electrical output in the body which is much more precise vs. the old physical arm weakness test. I don't know if this is an accurate assessment just my way of looking at it.
It fascinates me - I really need to read up on ART.

Scott or Gigi,
In the past, I've been tested with kinesiology by two practitioners. Both told me that my "polarity was reversed" which caused false testing results.
(They used some kind of default test where everybody should test weak and I was strong.)
Would this be the same thing as "blocked regulation", or are these two distinctly different problems?
Thanks -
Tracy
