Why did you seek Applied Kinesiology care?
I sought out Applied Kinesiology because I was having issues with my neck and upper back. A lot of anxiety and stress induced tension leading to headaches, sleeplessness, and daily pain. I had read about AK and thought it sounded very comprehensive and definitely worth trying. Also seeing posts on social media from others who have had success with the treatments was very encouraging.
What benefits have you seen since starting Applied Kinesiology care?
How has this impacted your day to day life?
Since starting Applied Kinesiology care I’ve had a remarkable decrease in the chronic pain I was feeling, very few headaches, and my sleep has improved. I have found my workouts (CrossFit) and running have also improved as the pain is no longer slowing me down. This has become part of my overall care that is leading to shorter recovery and better overall health.

Why did you seek Applied Kinesiology care?
When I started coming to see Bryan I was having migraines every other day and lower back issues that were preventing me from squatting or deadlifting in the gym. Which is 2/3 of a powerlifter’s moves.
What benefits have you seen since starting Applied Kinesiology Care?
After about a month I was getting much less frequent migraines and was enjoying the improvement of my everyday life. I was able to go back to the gym and do what I enjoy again.

Cardio is known to be helpful in lowering your blood pressure, the mechanism behind that is not completely understood. A 2019 study looked at the mechanism, believing that bacteria in the mouth creating nitrites, compounds which help relax the blood pressure.
They found that by inhibiting the bacteria following cardio by using mouthwash actually reduced the blood pressure lowering effects of performing the cardio, and the associated muscle oxygenation.
Keep your cardio efficient, avoid the mouthwash around a good workout.
