About Total Body Modification (TBM)

The principal founder and developer of Total Body Modification (AKA TBM) was Dr. Victor L. Frank, D.C., N.M.D. and it has been taught throughout the world, largely to chiropractors, since 1978.

When chiropractic was founded, it was based on the philosophy of health care through the treatment of the energy of the spine and nerves. The original masters of Chiropractic simply found a dysfunction and then corrected it, thereby building the reputation of chiropractic as a health care system more effective than drugs and surgery. 'The power that created the body can heal the body' was their main philosophy.

Total Body Modification is a member of the Applied Kinesiology (AK), Acupuncture, Naturopathy  and Chiropractic families.

In the early 1970’s, Dr. Frank and his colleague Harold Havlic, D.C., began to innovate by combining AK techniques with the old chiropractic masters techniques and with other modern techniques and soon Total Body Modification (TBM) was developed.

Total Body Modification (TBM) has taken that original Chiropractic philosophy and further explored the possibilities of self-regeneration inherent in the human body. What was found was that if the right thing is done to the right body at the right time in the right way, miracles happen. TBM practitioners can duplicate the corrections and the restoration to health that the old masters were able to achieve, but now Total Body Modification practitioners can perform them by intent and on a repeatable basis.

The human body is an integrated unit, and it doesn't always fit the logic that we have been taught.  Dr. Frank discovered that body functions which were thought to be separate activities actually interact and communicate with each other in a myriad of complex pathways. He determined that all of the body functions are controlled by a biological 'computer' within the body.

Dr. Frank found that by using test points and an indicator muscle, a practitioner could test the various biological ‘computer’ programs within the human body. Then, using energetic and soft tissue corrections, practitioners can reset the function of specific biological ‘computer’ programs, thereby restoring function, balance and communication within the body.

Total Body Modification is able to test and to correct most of the known body functions. In Total Body Modification, a simple muscle test and test points located throughout the body are utilized to determine the positive or negative function of that body system or organ and then a ‘fix’ is applied.
