Applied Kinesiology Muscle testing doctor treatment
Welcome to my practice!

Muscle testing doctor Portland, OR

Muscle testing to find out the cause of your health challenges.

I have been in practice as a doctor of chiropractic and professional applied kinesiologist (health care professional using muscle testing) for over a decade.

My private practice is in the Gadsby building, of the Pearl District in downtown Portland, Oregon.

I have a general practice where I can help you overcome your health challenges with muscle testing.

I received my Doctorate of Chiropractic from Cleveland Chiropractic College of Los Angeles in 2000. I was the Applied Kinesiology club president while I attended and received an award for leadership from the school student body association.

I’ve also studied:

  • Total Body Modification (TBM). TBM is a muscle testing technique that helps to balance the organs, glands, emotions, energy and structure of the body using old and somewhat forgotten chiropractic techniques, reflexes and lifestyle changes. I studied TBM since 1997 and was a presenter at one of their research symposiums.
  • Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) is a muscle testing technique designed to work specifically with emotions. It was “developed as a mind-body stress-reduction technique that uses a methodology of finding and removing neurological imbalances related to the physiology of unresolved stress. NET is a tool that helps improve mental and physical health.”
  • Applied Kinesiology (AK) is the original muscle testing technique. In 1964 Dr. George Goodheart discovered that he could turn a muscle on or off by applying different “challenges” to the body. in other words, you can instantly find out if something is good for a person’s health or not by feeling for the difference of muscle locking when you test it. Applied Kinesiology is a diagnostic method that covers the musculoskeletal (muscles, bones and joints), visceral (organs and glands), acupuncture meridians and emotional aspects of health. I have a Diplomate of the International College of Applied Kinesiology and teach it to other health care professionals.
  • Chiropractic adjusting techniques. I have learned many

Why does Dr. Ciprian need to know so much?

With my training in Applied Kinesiology I can find out what the source of your health challenge is. But then I need the wisdom and skills to be able to help you. I have studied many different facets of health over the years because someone may have the same health challenges as you, but for a totally different reason.

There is now “one cure fits all” type of scenario. You are an individual and your needs are unique. The more ways I know to help your body regain it’s proper balance and function, the easier and quicker it will be for me to assist your body in healing itself.

In town and out of town patients

I treat patients that are local as well as across the globe. If someone is close enough that they can visit my office twice a month then I can treat them as an in town patient. For an out of town patient, I would need to see them for a longer return visit because I may not of seen them in the office for several months, so the treatment takes longer.


Initial in town and out of town patient fee:

  • Total initial visit $291
    • This includes health history, exam and treatment
    • Any supplements or appliances will be extra

Initial in or out of town children’s fee (up to 16 years old):

  • Total initial visit $194
    • This includes health history, exam and treatment
    • Any supplements or appliances will be extra

Return in town patient fee:

  • Treatment $97 (plus any supplements or appliances)

Return out of town patient fee:

  • Treatment $194 (plus any supplements or appliances)

Return in or out of town children’s fee (up to 16 years old):

  • Treatment $97 (plus any supplements or appliances)

Nutritional Consults:

I do nutritional consults with existing patients (in or out of town) where I ask them to fill out a “symptom survey” form and I then suggest supplements for them. This is a good way for me to work with out of town patients on a monthly basis to help them with their health challenges.

  • Nutritional consult $50

How do I pay for my treatment with Dr. Ciprian?

I accept cash, checks, and major credit cards. If you have insurance that accepts “out of network chiropractors” I will give you a “superbill” to get reimbursed by your insurance company.

How often will I need to see Dr. Ciprian?

I usually see new in town patients twice a month for 3 months and then start seeing them less than that depending on how well they are progressing. Out of town patients I usually see once every 3-4 months depending on their progress and I use monthly nutritional consults in between visits.

My goal is to get you feeling well as soon as possible and to treat you as little as possible. I like to get a patient to the point where I see them only 3-4 times a year for maintenance, or when you feel that you need it.

With muscle testing we can find the quickest route to your health.

Can Dr. Ciprian Help you?

Over the years I have been able to help many patients with challenging conditions who have not received the results they were looking for from conventional medicine and even from the alternative health field. However, I can never guarantee that you will get well. Healing is up to you. I just assist you with healing. It is like I am the coach and you are the athlete. I can push a few buttons and tell you how to do things after you have been to my office and have been treated, but the healing is up to you.

Sometimes there are dietary reasons why someone doesn’t get well. I recommend to every patient that they should follow my eating right diet. See eatingrightdiet.com.

Sometimes there may be a reason at home or at work that is keeping you from getting the results that you want. I will show you what these might be but again, the changes are going to be up to you.

There might be emotions and personal beliefs that need to change. I can help you with these in the treatment but it will be up to you to work with the needed changes out of the office.

I help many people resolve problems that they have not had help with in the past. I even have other doctors refer me their problems patients to work on. But I can’t help everyone. It’s up to you.

What I provide in my office is the same level of investigation and treatment that finally helped me with the health challenges that I have had. Since I have have achieved health I know that it is possible for you to do it also.

Here are some quotes from recent patients:

Dr. Ciprian opened up my body to a whole new way of living. Almost instantaneously from the first time he worked with me I felt myself experience a level of serenity and calm that I had never felt. I became more in tune with my body and its needs, along with what my mind was thinking and doing. I had no idea that the foods I had been eating could affect my mind and body so much. Dr. Ciprian has shown me better ways of caring for my life and for that I am eternally grateful. ~S.B.

Battling a recurring addictive theme in life, as well as a very static, lethargic feeling for years, I sought and found a grounding force. Dr. Ciprian is equal parts structural expert, nutritional sage and mind/body coach. His relaxed demeanor and expansive knowledge of the body have helped me achieve what I thought was not possible – I’ve regained my vigor. I’m naturally more at ease and in awe of my body’s ability to reform itself into a lean, muscular physique I had lost over the years. I credit Dr. Ciprian’s approach – he’s actually interested in determining the components that are making you ill and treating them in order of priority, even if that means addressing an emotional scar before acute pain. I’ll continue to work with Dr. Ciprian as I find the benefits of even a half hour session long-lasting. Thank you! ~J.S.
