Module 1
Introduction into functional muscle testing


In this module you will learn, why functional muscle testing is a great tool to identify joint problems throughout the body. It literally will provide you with a window, so you can identifying the underlying mechanism for the presented problem. You will learn about neuro-muscular function, and about the latest science/theories that lies behind.
