Diagnosis Method: How does a doctor figure out if the cause of distant pain is dental or scars?

How exactly do they use applied kinesiology “muscle testing” to identify which exact tooth or scar might be causing distant pain?

And please note, technically, if something is DENTAL, it is probably also a SCAR, because DENTAL issues often involve past dental surgery, and with any type of surgery, there is always a SCAR, see?

The concept of DENTAL issues and SCARS causing pain in distant parts of the body is called NEURAL THERAPY.

If they suspect that the cause of pain is DENTAL (Root Canals; Cavitations), they inject Procaine into the gum area around the suspect tooth, and if the pain disappears, then they know that they were right.  If it is DENTAL, then they refer you to the Dentist.  The patient’s pain will typically return in a few hours as the Procaine wears off.  For permanent relief, they will tell you that you need to go see a dentist.

If they suspect that the cause of pain is a SCAR, they inject Procaine into the scar.  If the pain disappears, it is usually permanently gone (just injecting the Procaine breaks up the scar enough to make pain relief permanent). 

If it is neither DENTAL nor SCARS, then the cause of pain is probably emanating from the LOCAL SITE OF PAIN.  In that situation, they will treat that part of your body with OZONE.  Depending on what problem you have, they might have you do intravenous OZONE for your whole body. 

The topic of OZONE is beyond the scope of this website, so I created a separate website for it, see www.medicalozonetestimonials.com.

Wasn’t applied kinesiology “muscle testing” debunked?

If you try to find out about applied kinesiology (muscle testing) online, you will probably get search engine A.I. results that tell you that applied kinesiology has been debunked. 

First, please don’t rely on A.I.  You need to do your own research and actually read the studies and other sources that A.I. seems to be relying upon. 

Second, if you read those studies, you will find that they are about using applied kinesiology to diagnose nutritional deficiencies. As far as I can find, there are no studies on using applied kinesiology to diagnose whether dental issues or scars could be causing distant pain. If you know of any, please notify me.

Third, your search engine results probably included Wikipedia and Quackwatch. As I have said elsewhere on this website, I do not care what those websites have to say.

Fourth, if a medical treatment or concept has been proven by scientific evidence, that means it was “true” before there was any evidence. The evidence only uncovered this truth. It was there all along.

Fifth, in the case of a medical treatment or concept that has zero risk to the patient, what is the harm in trying it?

For example, if a patient is in pain, and conventional medicine has failed them, if they undergo muscle testing, and that muscle testing identifies the cause of pain as dental, the patient just goes to the dentist. The dentist will not do dental surgery unless the X-Rays and CT Scan justify it. If dental treatment is justified, and the patient undergoes dental surgery, the patient’s distant pain might be relieved. If it is not, at least they got a dental problem fixed. And then the patient can go back to conventional medicine and continue taking Cortisol shots, pain medication, and anti-depressants for the rest of their life.

For another example, if the muscle testing identifies the cause of pain as a scar, and the patient receives a Procaine shot into that scar, if it relieves their distant pain, then that is wonderful, but if it doesn’t relieve their distant pain, then they can go back to conventional medicine.

The risks and costs of muscle testing and Procaine injections are generally miniscule as compared to the cost of conventional medicine (I heard that the purchase price to the doctor of a single Procaine injection is only a few cents). The costs to the patient would be even lower if insurance would cover these procedures. And moreover, the costs would be even lower than that if it works to get rid of the patient’s distant pain, as they won’t need to keep having “treatment” for the rest of their life. Contrast that with conventional medicine, which can only offer the patient procedures and medication that the patient will have to take for the rest of their life (and still not get full relief from pain).

Applied Kinesiology (muscle testing) Studies

You can search the NIH PubMed database for studies on applied kinesiology, but I searched it in July 2025 and did not see any results showing studies specifically on using applied kinesiology to diagnose the cause of distant pain as being from dental problems or scars. If you know of any studies that you think I should post on this website, please notify me.

I did find this study: The Estrazulas Study (Sao Paolo, Brazil) (Feb 2020) found that applied kinesiology (muscle testing) provided accurate results when used to measure sacroiliac dysfunction.

Does this involve Acupuncture Meridians?

For dental problems, yes, the diagnosis method involves the meridians. Each tooth is connected to a specific meridian that connects to other parts of your body.

The doctor uses applied kinesiology (aka muscle testing). The easiest way to explain this is to give an example.

Here is the Rowen Diagnosis Method used at the Rowen Clinic, run by Dr. Rowen and Dr. Su. In this video, at timestamp 8:30, Dr. Rowen explains that his method is to check DENTAL, then check SCARS, then check LOCAL SITE OF PAIN, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ux6QJyyQ9m4.  

You may be wondering, how exactly do they use muscle testing to figure out which exact tooth or scar might be causing pain in distant parts of the body? 

For an illustration of how muscle testing is used to diagnose whether dental issues are causing the patient’s pain in a distant part of the body, watch this video clip of one of Dr. Rowen’s Ozone Training Workshops, where Dr. Rowen demonstrates to other medical and health practitioners how to use applied kinesiology to figure out if a dental issue is causing the patient’s pain, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzaPK732Hwc.  In the video, Dr. Rowen has one of the Workshop attendees, a medical doctor from Israel with back pain, volunteer to have Dr. Rowen check his teeth.  At timestamp 6 minutes, Dr. Rowen shows with applied kinesiology that Tooth T18 is causing this man’s back pain.
