NMR

I've always viewed competant muscle testing as asking a question of motor and sensory nerves. The question is: can you hold this position/angle of movement?

Answers include:

yes with gusto,

sorta but only with pain,

sorta for a only short time,

absolutely no,

not really because I braced elsewhere first,

and "that question is incomprehensible so I changed the question and did another movement entirely. "

Parsing out those answers and making the brain aware of the body's responses can instantly change ROM, pain, and coordination.
