Applied Movement Neurology
The shoulder three therapists couldn’t shift. The knee that still hurts after months of rehab. Learn the muscle test that shows what the nervous system has switched off, the reset that switches it back on, and the re-test your client feels before they leave the room.
01 · What is AMN
AMN stands for Applied Movement Neurology. Strength, range of motion, balance, coordination and pain are outputs of the nervous system: the brainstem, cerebellum, vestibular system and eyes decide what a muscle is allowed to do. AMN teaches you to test that control with the muscle test, find where it has dropped, and restore it through movement, sensory input and hands-on techniques.
02 · Why AMN
You've done the mobility work. Most trainers hit the same wall: clients whose pain or weakness does not shift with exercise alone. That is usually a control problem, and control lives in the nervous system.

Test, reset, re-test. Your client feels the difference in strength or range on the spot.
When the nervous system holds the change, clients stop returning with the same problem and book in for the next goal.
The tools to work with pain and movement problems that exercise alone has not fixed.
Online courses with lifetime access. Study between sessions, rewatch any time.
03 · How it works
One loop you run in every session. Your client feels the change, and you can show it.
Every AMN session follows the same loop, so you always know what to do next and your client always sees the result.
Manual muscle tests, joint range of motion and simple neurological tests show which muscles are misfiring and which system is behind it.
Nervous-system techniques, such as the ventral horn technique and nerve mobilisations, restore the signal between muscle and brain.
Test again to prove the change, then lock it in with attentive movement: balance, coordination and drills chosen from the client's own results.

Practitioners
After 25 years in fitness and specialising in back care, I discovered AMN through a workshop in London. It has enabled me to alleviate pain and help people with issues from sleep to gut health.
It was the best move in my career to study this technique.
Questions
No. AMN is written for trainers and movement professionals. CES teaches just enough neuroanatomy for you to understand why the techniques work, then puts them straight into practice.
Yes. CES, Level 1 and Level 2 are online courses with lifetime access, so you can study between clients and come back to any lesson.
Yes. Every course can be paid in full or split into 2 monthly payments at checkout.
Most people start with the New Student Bundle (CES + Level 1). To try the approach first, get the free Calibrate Screening Tools or the £67 C-Spine workshop. Compare every course.
No. AMN is an exercise-based system. It does not diagnose or treat medical conditions and does not replace medical advice. Clients with new or unexplained pain should see a medical professional first.
Movement patterns are the scaffolding on which cognition is built.

Who created AMN
Personal trainer and Holistic Health Practitioner who built AMN from years of study, research and work with clients, then turned it into a system other practitioners can learn. He wrote every course.
Our mission: to learn, share and evolve. Current neuroscience, neuromechanics and the muscle test, taught as one practical system for the treatment room and the gym floor.
For individuals · Online 1:1
For the pain or physical limit that has not shifted, whatever you have tried. In a personal online session David looks for what sits underneath it, with the approach he has refined over 22 years of practice.
“My work is not a tale of mystical gifts, but one of relentless learning, research and precise execution.”
