Nutritional Response Testing® & Contact Reflex Analysis with Robin, ND
At Coldren Wellness Center, Robin, ND offers Nutritional Response Testing® (NRT) combined with Contact Reflex Analysis (CRA) to support a whole-body approach to wellness. This system is designed to help identify areas of nutritional stress, imbalances, or functional limitations in the body, guiding personalized recommendations to optimize health.
Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, this approach evaluates how the body responds to physical, chemical, and emotional stressors, using gentle, non-invasive techniques.
How the Assessment Works
- Nutritional Response Testing: Gentle muscle testing is performed while specific points on the body are stimulated. Changes in muscle response may indicate stress patterns in organs, glands, or body systems that can benefit from nutritional or lifestyle support.
- Contact Reflex Analysis: Targeted muscle testing and movement analysis help assess muscular function, balance, and coordination, providing additional insight into the body’s overall functional status.
Both techniques are painless, do not involve needles or machines, and are performed during a one-on-one session with Robin, ND.
How It Is Used in Care
This combined approach may be used to:
- Identify nutritional and functional stress patterns
- Support individualized supplement and nutrition recommendations
- Assess musculoskeletal balance and movement function
- Monitor progress and response to care over time
- Complement chiropractic and wellness services
What to Expect
A session with Robin, ND, includes a review of your health history, assessment using NRT and CRA, and a discussion of findings. Based on the results, a personalized wellness plan may be recommended, including nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle guidance.
Who May Benefit
This combined approach is often chosen by individuals who:
- Want a personalized, whole-body approach to wellness
- Have ongoing health or functional concerns
- Seek guidance on nutrition, movement, and lifestyle optimization
- Prefer non-invasive, integrative assessments
Important Note
Nutritional Response Testing and CRA are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. Recommendations are provided as part of a wellness-based approach and should not replace medical care when appropriate.
What is Nutrition Response Testing?
Nutrition Response Testing is a non-invasive system of analyzing the body to determine the underlying causes of ill or non-optimum health.
Our clinically proven system may be quite different from any other healing practice that you may have experienced.
We will have some questions for you before and during the test. The actual procedure is simple and direct, with the body providing all of the information and feedback needed. We use the extraordinary properties of the human cells and tissues to bring about healing and health changes, exactly as nature intended.
The body responds to the procedure reliably and consistently. This feedback is so precise that it opens the door to a safe and lasting recovery, even in cases where everything else has failed.
THE BODY HAS THE FULL POTENTIAL TO FULLY REPAIR ITSELF, WHEN GIVEN THE RIGHT NUTRIENTS.
What are we testing for?
Through our analysis, we are testing your body’s neurological reflexes. These reflexes are the body’s way of telling us what and how your nervous system is doing. It is the nervous system’s responsibility to regulate the body’s functions for every organ. The testing includes organs, glands, joints, muscles, etc.
These reflexes are tested on the surface of the body, and then the findings are analyzed.
How do we get the body’s reflex information?
Energy flows exist between all parts and organs of the body. These flows can become disrupted for a variety of reasons. This disruption is easily discovered with our testing.
We will do a full body scan to properly assess each of your reflexes.
We do the analysis by contacting your extended arm with one hand, and contacting the specific reflex area with the other hand. If the tested reflex is stressed, your nervous system will respond by reducing energy to the extended arm (which will weaken and cause it to drop). A drop in the arm indicates underlying stress or dysfunction in that area, which can be affecting your health.
Once the underlying stress is corrected, this weak muscle response will no longer occur.
Following your consultation, you will be given the results in a way that you can understand, with a specific nutritional program to follow.
