I used to think muscle testing was just one thing. A party trick. A yes-or-no tool for picking food or supplements. Then I had an epiphany that changed everything. Muscle testing isn't one thing. It's a tool you can use in countless ways.

Let me explain with an analogy that finally made it click for me.

Think About Water

Water is a tool. That might sound strange at first, but bear with me.

Water is one thing (H₂O), but you can use it in so many different ways:

You can drink water to hydrate your body
You can drink plain water
You can drink electrolyte water
You can add salts or minerals to your water
You can bathe with water
You can swim in the ocean
You can wash your clothes with water
You can freeze water to make ice
you can heat water to create steam

All of those different things benefit your body and your life. Same tool. Different applications.

That's Exactly How Muscle Testing Works

Muscle testing is one tool… a way to tap into what your body already knows, a window into your soul, a window into your body.

But once you have that tool? You can apply it in SO many different ways to get the answers you're looking for.

"It wasn't really until I opened my mind to all of the different ways in which I could use muscle testing that I really fully embraced it."

Here are some ways I use muscle testing daily:

Supplements & Dosages

Every morning, I pull out my supplements and test each one: "Do I need this supplement at this time?" The answer might be yes today and no tomorrow. My body's needs change daily, and muscle testing helps me honor that.

I also test dosages. Sometimes my body needs 2 capsules instead of 3. Sometimes it needs them morning and evening instead of just once a day. No more guessing. No more blindly following bottle recommendations.

Food Choices

At the grocery store. At restaurants. When meal planning. I test foods before I eat them to see what my body actually needs in that moment.

What served me yesterday might not serve me today. Muscle testing removes the guesswork.

Personal Care Products & Skincare Order

Did you know your skincare products might need to go in a specific ORDER for YOUR body?

I test which oil or lotion my body needs today. Which deodorant. Then I test the sequence: "Is there an order at which I need these for my highest and best good at this time?"

Same products. Different order. Better results.

Health Decisions & Emergency Situations

One of my workshop students shared a perfect example of this:

Her son got bitten by a spider. She was panicking: "Do we go to the ER? Just watch it? Give Benadryl?"

She muscle tested him:

"Does he need to go to the emergency room?" No.
"Can he just take Benadryl and be okay?" Yes.

The Benadryl did the trick and She saved herself a 4-hour ER visit, a $500+ bill, and hours of anxiety.

Why Most People Underutilize Muscle Testing

Here's what I see happen: People learn how to muscle test - the physical technique - and then they stop there.

They use it to test supplements. Maybe food. And that's it.

But that's like learning about water and only drinking it. You're missing out on all the other ways it could serve you.

The real power of muscle testing comes when you understand that it's not about the technique… it's about how you APPLY the technique.

From Basic to Advanced Applications

Once you understand muscle testing as a tool with endless applications, you start seeing possibilities everywhere:

Basic Applications:

Testing individual supplements
Testing food before eating
Choosing personal care products

Intermediate Applications:

Testing supplement combinations
Determining dosages and timing
Product order and sequencing
Identifying what's happening in your body (sick vs. detoxing)

Advanced Applications:

Testing for other people (in-person or remote)
Emotional clearing work
Spiritual alignment
Making major life decisions
Client work and practitioner applications

Your Body Already Knows

Here's something most people don't realize: Your subconscious mind is 95% of all brain activity.

Your conscious mind, the part that's thinking, speaking, and reading this right now? That's only 5%.

Your subconscious already knows what your body needs. Muscle testing just gives you a way to access that knowledge. Your body is constantly processing information your conscious mind can't access. It knows:

What supplements you need TODAY (not just what worked last week)
Which foods will serve you in this moment
What's causing that symptom you can't explain
What detox support would support you TODAY
What's for your highest and best good

Muscle testing isn't magic. It's simply making visible what your body already knows.

The One Thing That Changes Everything

When you understand that muscle testing is a TOOL (like water) with endless APPLICATIONS, everything shifts.

You stop thinking: "Can I use muscle testing for this?"

And you start asking: "HOW can I use muscle testing for this?"

That shift - from limitation to possibility - is what separates people who dabble in muscle testing from people who master it.
