Myofascial dysfunction, known more commonly as “trigger points”, is one of the most common conditions you will see in your practice. Dr. Eugene Charles teaches how you can find and fix a trigger point in this month’s Technique Tuesday.
As you watch Dr. Charles demonstrate on Donna, you’ll learn:
• What a myofascial trigger point is
• The easiest way to find a myofascial trigger point (this is a very simple test you can do in just a few seconds)
• The step-by-step process used to treat your patient with myofascial dysfunction restoring their muscle to normal function
Dr. Charles explains how you can diagnose and treat acromioclavicular joint dysfunction – an overlooked cause of neck, shoulder and arm pain
This topic is very personal to Dr. Charles because he had been plagued by a shoulder injuy for many years before being treated by Dr. Goodheart.
AC joint problems are one of the most comon findings in practice and in this addition of Technique Tuesday Dr. Charles demonstrates how to find an AC joint problem.

as a myogelosis and can occur over muscles, glands, organs and bones.
Hi Dr. Charles,
I want to thank you for the seminar that you gave in the beginning of February. It was full of wonderful information. I wanted to let you know I have already made a dancer happy adjusting and taping the 5th metatarsal….and I have enjoyed providing therapy through so many other of the applications that you introduced to us. Thanks so much!
It was great! And so helpful.
Thank you!
What is Applied Kinesiology Muscle Testing and How Does it Work?
Applied Kinesiology (AK) is the science of healing the total person and supporting his or her true health through the study of movement and integral muscle function. Recent evidence has identified muscles as organs that secrete hormones. According to some experts-muscles are the largest organs in the body and this may help to explain how applied kinesiology therapeutic procedures can produce such dramatic results.
About The Book
“Dr. Eugene Charles has been one of the premier instructors of Applied Kinesiology (AK) for over three decades. Not only is he a phenomenal instructor but also a consummate clinician. This is a work that should turn heads and stimulate a genuine interest among primary care clinicians across all disciplines. The only people who will be more excited are those suffering from ailments that have not been helped by allopathic and traditional therapies. Applied Kinesiology offers a real alternative.” Kamau Kokayi, MD-Yale School of Medicine (82)
Applied Kinesiology (AK) is the science of healing the total person and supporting his or her true health through the study of movement and integral muscle function.

According to some experts-muscles are the largest organs in the body and this may help to explain how applied kinesiology therapeutic procedures can produce such dramatic results.
Patients often visit an AK specialist after they have run the gamut of traditional medical professionals with little or no success. AK specialists take the time to do an extensive interview with each patient to assess his or her concerns regarding their health. They review the results of any standard tests the patient has undergone. Then, by observing how a person moves and subsequently testing various muscles by hand that are linked to a particular condition or symptom, the Applied Kinesiologist can create a unique treatment plan to alleviate the underlying dysfunction and restore the patient to health.
Current estimates suggest that 1,000,000 practitioners worldwide are using some form of AK manual muscle testing, and as more and more patients and medical professionals become aware of its benefits-this number will continue to climb. As its benefits become more mainstream, it is only a matter of time before Applied Kinesiology takes its place as one of the most effective healthcare disciplines in the world today.
The world of healthcare is changing before our eyes. The public is ready for the kind of care only we can provide.

A Brief History of Applied Kinesiology
As with many groundbreaking medical discoveries, AK started with a new perspective on an age-old challenge to doctors everywhere: to relieve pain and achieve optimal health in their patients.
Dr. George Goodheart, Sr., was a successful chiropractic doctor in Detroit, Michigan in the 1920s. Chiropractic was a relatively new science at the time, having been founded in 1895 by Daniel David Palmer. It grew in popularity but remained controversial. The traditional medical doctors denounced it as lacking in scientific validity, despite the massive amount of practical research it had garnered. Yet men like Goodheart, who were committed to healing through the innate mechanisms of the human body, followed its precepts and helped hundreds of people.
Dr. Goodheart incorporated a well-rounded approach to patient care. He was constantly looking for better ways to serve his patients. He would travel around the Midwest to meet with other innovative doctors in the chiropractic profession, often bringing his son, George Jr. with him. One such individual, who recalled young George visiting his lab in knee pants with his father, was the brilliant doctor, “Major” Bertrand DeJarnette. Dr. DeJarnette discovered a technique called Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT) that became one of the most respected techniques in chiropractic.
Influenced by his respect for his father’s passion for healing people, George Goodheart Jr. followed in his father’s footsteps and studied to become a chiropractic doctor. After attending the University of Detroit, he went on to graduate from The National College of Chiropractic in 1939 and planned to join his father’s successful practice. The Second World War interrupted his plan, however. After serving with distinction in the United States Air Corps, he returned home to begin his work with his father in 1946.
Brimming with enthusiasm to heal the sick, the young doctor would often ask his father how to handle particularly difficult cases. The senior Dr. Goodheart would urge him to rely on his intuition to solve the problem. He advised him always “to see with eyes that truly see; hear with ears that truly hear; feel with hands that truly feel.”
After his father’s death, Dr. Goodheart continued to practice as he had done for nearly two decades. However, in 1964, he made a groundbreaking discovery. A 24-year-old man came to his office with excruciating shoulder pain. He complained that he’d been to many doctors, but no one could help him. His condition was compounded by an inability to push forward with the arm affected by the pain.

“I recently recorded an excellent interview with Dr. Eugene Charles talking about Applied Kinesiology, Functional Medicine Testing, and his book Journey to Healing. The concept of holistic healing is a topic of much interest and certainly, in my mind, a direction that we need to pursue in search of optimum health. Journey to Healing is an excellent reference tool for your library. And Dr. Charles’ knowledge and enthusiasm are evident in every page of the book.”
