Dr. Camden Clay

Enhance your position as a muscle expert! Learn how to find weak muscles and make them strong within your scope of practice! Subtle Muscle Testing is a muscle palpation technique which quickly discovers subtle variations in muscle tone, between strong and weak parts of muscles. This skill allows the Massage Therapist to focus his or her massage techniques where clients need them most, on weak parts of muscles! Most people, even athletes have significant weaknesses in their muscles. These muscles are not weak because the person needs more exercise. These muscles are weak most often because of disruptions in the movement of blood, lymph, cerebral spinal fluid, nerve and/or acupuncture meridian energy flow. Making weak muscles strong clinically validates your Massage Therapy procedures. Your clients will be amazed! This course also focuses on teaching clients how to maintain improvement of muscle strength with self-help stretching and self-help massage techniques.

Dr. Clay graduated from Life Chiropractic College in 1983. Dr. Clay is a master at finding weak muscles and making them strong. He has studied the art and science of muscle testing for the last 30 years. Dr. Clay has taught muscle testing regularly over the past 25 years.
