What do you Know About Applied Kinesiology?

Not only do I know what it is, I have been able to use it as one of my principal health maintenance modes since 1976.

Breathe to Heal

  The more I have researched ways to recover from trauma, surgery, and anesthesia the more I have come to appreciate my long term training and practice of breathing.
