Shocking Discovery!
Some Kinesiology Courses are not Teaching the Blocking Pretest, which is Essential for Manual Muscle Testing!

Recently I was curious when I received an email from a very sweet and intelligent lady customer who had bought my DVD training system, "Perfect Health with Kinesiology & Muscle Testing":

I have a question about the blocking correction.

Is that the correction for Anterior Deltoid or is that for all muscles in general? I have not heard the term "blocking" before.

Thanks, Rhonda (not her real name)

I thought, how can this be? I knew Rhonda as someone who had done a LOT of the main kinesiology courses, and was also a Touch for Health instructor! She was enjoying the DVD series greatly. I phoned her to find out what she meant.

I was totally shocked to discover that she had never been taught the blocking pretest!!!! I asked her how on earth she managed to muscle test people. And it turned out that, in fact, she had great difficulty in testing many people, so much so that she had pretty much given up using kinesiology. But each new class she would ask why she had this problem, and while different people offered different suggestions which didn't work, not one of them told her about the blocking pretest!

I was dumbfounded. I couldn't work out, and still can't, how this situation came to be. If a person is blocked, then you will virtually never, ever get a weak muscle. Every single muscle and every single item that you test will appear to be strong.

Let me say that again. If a person is blocked, when you test any muscle, it will appear to be in balance, even if it is out of balance. Plus if you muscle test a particular food, it will appear to be neutral or positive for the person, even if it is negative. A person who is blocked will virtually never give you a weak (unlocked) muscle.

From my own experience I know that many, many people are blocked, especially the first time that you work on them. Without knowing how to test for blocking, and especially how to correct it, there could be as many as more than 50-60% of people that you can't work on!

Why do people block? It's a protective mechanism by the body. The body got too stressed by one or more things, and 'blocked'. Often life gets too much for the person at some time. It's kind of like putting a rubber glove on your hand - the hand is now protected, but it is now less responsive. Your muscles are meant to be able to turn on and off. For example, every time you walk, when your arms swing forward they will test as "locked" and when they swing back behind you they will test as "unlocked".

No wonder that Rhonda had not been able to test so many people!!! We tried to work out how this omission happened, but couldn't. I learned this essential pretest around 1992, as part of Touch for Health, so it was a mystery as to how she had never been taught it.

You absolutely cannot do accurate manual muscle testing without doing the pretests. They are disk #2 in my DVD series, "Perfect Health with Kinesiology & Muscle Testing". What is in the other disks is outlined on this website.

A trailer and more information is given on this website.

Testimonials from people who have learned the system are here.

I would love to hear from other people who learned kinesiology and did not learn blocking.
