Applied Kinesiology Liability Insurance.
Our Applied Kinesiology Liability Insurance provides essential protection for practitioners specializing in this unique modality. Applied kinesiology integrates muscle testing, biomechanics, and holistic wellness principles, making it a powerful tool for assessing and addressing clients’ needs.
However, with hands-on assessments and specialized techniques, there are inherent risks—including potential client injury, malpractice claims, or misunderstandings about treatment outcomes.
Our insurance safeguards you from these risks, allowing you to focus on helping clients achieve optimal health without worrying about legal or financial setbacks. With comprehensive coverage, including general and professional liability, our plans are tailored to the specific needs of applied kinesiology practitioners. Affordable and flexible, our coverage ensures peace of mind so you can practice with confidence.

What Our Applied Kinesiology Insurance Covers
Applied kinesiology insurance from MMIP provides both professional and general liability coverage and additional safeguards that provide the best all-around protection possible.
Our Liability Insurance for Applied Kinesiology Therapists Provides Coverage Under the Following Areas:
General Liability Insurance: This is also known as “slip and fall” insurance. When you open your doors and start receiving clients, you’re also opening yourself up to general liability. A client tripping over a loose front door mat and injuring themselves is an example of an event that would fall under this coverage type.
$2,000,000 per occurrence, $3,000,000 per year
Professional Liability Insurance for massage therapists: Also called “malpractice coverage” or "public liability" this liability insurance protection is for the actual services you provide during a session. If a client reports an injury from your professional services, they may seek legal action to get compensation. These types of claims would fall under reflexology professional liability insurance.
$2,000,000 per occurrence, $3,000,000 per year (included with general liability)
Identity Protection Plan: Today’s Deep Tissue Massage therapists are exposed more than ever to the threat of a cyber incident stealing their personal data. If this occurs, our members get all the way up to $25,000 in identity restoration services.

What Is Applied Kinesiology?
Applied Kinesiology is a holistic technique that blends principles from chiropractic care, muscle testing, and energy work to assess and support the body’s structural, chemical, and emotional balance. Practitioners evaluate muscle strength and weakness to identify imbalances that may be affecting a client’s overall health.
This modality goes beyond traditional muscle testing by interpreting responses to specific stimuli, such as nutritional changes, emotional stressors, or manual adjustments, and tailoring therapeutic techniques accordingly. Sessions may incorporate chiropractic adjustments, acupressure, nutrition recommendations, or other complementary therapies to restore balance and improve well-being.
Do I Need Applied Kinesiology Liability Insurance?
If you practice or teach Applied Kinesiology, having liability insurance is a smart way to protect your career. Though not legally required in most states, insurance offers important protection against potential claims related to client injury, professional negligence, or scope-of-practice misunderstandings.
Whether you're offering this service as part of a larger bodywork or wellness practice or using it in a clinical or educational setting, liability coverage helps safeguard your professional reputation and provides peace of mind.
