Published evaluations

These evaluations, published in medical journals of reference, are very important. They prove the effectiveness of microkinesitherapy. The studies were carried out using a strict scientific protocol. These protocols are normally used to validate medical treatments; practitioners and researchers of microkinesitherapy submitted to these evaluations voluntarily to gain and disseminate knowledge about the method.

These evaluations were carried out and validated by professors, researchers, and laboratories in the areas medicine and biology. They were then reviewed by the reading committees of the various medical reference journals in which they were published.

They prove scientifically that microkinesitherapy is effective. Microkinesitherapy is part of the small group of NMIs (Non-Medication Interventions) that have proved their effectiveness.
