Official title
Red Blood Cell Validation of Magnesium Deficiency as Determined by a Muscle Stretch Test
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Professional Applied Kinesiology (PAK) is a system which attempts to evaluate numerous aspects of health (structural, chemical, and mental) by the manual testing of muscles, combined with other standard methods of diagnosis. It leads to a variety of conservative, noninvasive treatments which involves joint manipulations or mobilizations, myofascial therapies, cranial techniques, meridian and acupuncture skills, clinical nutrition and dietary management, counseling skills, evaluating environmental irritants, and various reflex techniques. The expanded validity of the manual muscle test has been extensively described.elsewhere, including by one of the Co-Principal Investigators (Anthony Rosner). Details of Applied Kinesiology and its adjunctive procedures are prescribed by an International College of Applied Kinesiology Board of Examiners, cited for its scholarly and scientific activities. A convenience sample of 40 patients, ages 18-75, will be administered the magnesium muscle stretch test with blood drawn at the time of the individual's visit. For the muscle test, uniformity of the examiner's force application is to be confirmed with a force transducer, while the clinician's judgment as to whether the muscle test is positive (facilitated) or negative (inhibited) will be confirmed by electrogoniometry, the procedures for both the force transducer and electrogoniometer having been established by one of the Co-PIs (Anthony Rosner) previously. The blood sample is to be submitted to LabCorp for the measurement of red blood cell levels of magnesium. Coded results of the muscle test and magnesium blood levels are to be correlated by an experienced statistician who is blinded to the patient's identity.
