Autonomic Response Testing (ART) is an advanced method of muscle testing. This technique was developed by Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, Louisa Williams, MC, DC, ND, and Yoshiaki Omura, MD.

Dr. Klinghardt states: "ART helps me to evaluate your body's autonomic nervous system's response to a specific stressor or a group of stressors".

The Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) is the portion of your nervous system that requires no conscious thought. It functions automatically throughout the day. The balance of your body is controlled by two portions of the ANS. The first is the Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS), is the nervous system that is dominant during times of stress (mental, physical, and chemical). The second part is the Parasympathetic Nervous System (PNS), which is dominant during times of relaxation or deep altered states. We need both of them to work equally to

maintain a proper tone within the body.

Autonomic Response testing evaluates which stressor(s) are interfering with proper function of the Autonomic Nervous Symptoms. These stressors could come from your external environment such as infectious agents, environmental toxins, or food allergies. They might also arise internally and manifest as glandular/hormonal imbalances, brain/neurotransmitter imbalances and old injuries with broken-down cellular communication.
