Abstract: In this history of the growth of Professional Applied Kinesiology (PAK) and the International College of Applied Kinesiology around the world and throughout the healing professions in Part II, thirteen contributing authors and teachers of this chiropractic technique tell the story of PAK’s growth on each of the continents of the world and its penetration into allied natural health care fields, presenting the detailed, colorful story of the permeation of AK manual muscle testing (MMT) methods and philosophy into the daily practice of hundreds of thousands and potentially millions of clinicians. Illustrated throughout with historical pictures covering over 5 decades, this is the first comprehensive history of AK around the world.
