Kinesiology
Applied Kinesiology originated with George Goodheart, a chiropractor, in the 1960's. He combined the chiropractic concept of "innate intelligence" with the Eastern religious concept of energy (ch'i) and the idea that muscles reflex (reflect back) the condition of each of the various body organs via the ch'i meridians. "Innate intelligence" is described as spiritual intelligence which runs the body and is connected to a universal intelligence specifically through the physical nervous system. His theory is that the status of all body organs and systems can be determined by checking the resistance of a specific muscle.
