The scholarship's namesake, Dr. George Goodheart, a chiropractor, developed a new system of evaluation in chiropractic during the 1960s. He found that assessment of normal and abnormal body function could be accomplished by using muscle tests. Since the original discovery, the use of muscle testing has been applied to over 30 different therapeutic systems to evaluate which therapy is appropriate for each patient. This system is called "applied kinesiology" or AK. Dr. Goodheart has annually published his observations since 1964 and regularly produces audio tapes with current information. He has published You'll Be Better, The Story of Applied Kinesiology, which describes his contribution to AK. Dr. Goodheart was the first chiropractor to be officially appointed to the Sports Medicine Modalities Committee of the US Olympic Committee and served at the 1980 Lake Placid Winter Olympics, as well as the first ICAK-USA Research Director, a position he retains today.

The International College of Applied Kinesiology- (ICAK-USA), established in 1974, is an organization of licensed-to-diagnose health care professionals who utilize a range of therapies that focus on prevention, nutrition, and wellness. ICAK-USA is dedicated to furthering the knowledge of health care professionals in AK all over the world.
