| Abstract/Notes |
Thirteen contributing authors and teachers of Professional Applied Kinesiology (PAK) chiropractic technique tell the story of the growth of the International College of Applied Kinesiology around the world (and the penetration of PAK into allied healing professions, in Part II). This narrative history presents the detailed, colourful story of the permeation of chiropractic’s AK manual muscle testing (MMT) methods and philosophy into the daily practice of hundreds of thousands and potentially millions of clinicians both within the chiropractic profession and without. Illustrated throughout with historical pictures covering over 5 decades, this is the first comprehensive history of AK and chiropractic manual muscle testing. The remarkable story of how this system of chiropractic manual diagnosis has been taken up by many allied professions and professionals around the world is offered in Part II of this narrative history of PAK.
