NAET: Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique - A Useful Energy Medicine Technique

I prefer using the term "sensitivity" as opposed to allergy since many times standard allergy testing may fail to demonstrate a classic allergic response even when the patient clearly has a reaction to the offending substance.

This discordance suggests another mechanism underlying the reaction. It is much like the case of trying to push the same poles of a magnet together, they repell each other. This is a figurative way of thinking about energetic imbalances, which this technique evaluates and treats. Another way of thinking about it is as in the case of putting the batteries in an appliance the wrong way. The energy in the battery is there, it's just not making the proper connection. It needs adjusting in order to allow the proper energy flow to happen and allow the appliance to function.

Muscle response testing is used to determine if a given substance causes a stress response (a weakened indicator muscle) as well as which acupuncture meridians (energy channels) are affected. Treatment is then applied using acupressure (not needle acupuncture) to points aligned alongside the spine. The patient then must avoid that substance for 25 hours and is muscle tested again on the subsequent visit to insure the previous substance no longer causes a weak muscle response.

Within the NAET protocol, fifteen fundamental substances have been found to be universally weakening in most people. Clearing these fifteen substances then is the basic requirement of all new NAET patients. Thereafter, known offending substances such as particular chemicals, foods or pollens like mountain cedar or rag weed, etc. are tested and treated as necessary. If need be, standard allergy testing may also be ordered to determine other potential sources of irritation for subsequent treatment.

Severe, life threatening allergies such as to peanut, certain medications and such are managed differently as these processes are typically very deeply entrenched. Treatment is still offered using a modification of the general technique, but with the goal of reducing the severity of symptoms associated with accidental exposures and not for the ultimate ability to eat or be exposed to that substance on a routine basis.

NAET has been successfully used to help manage problems ranging from nasal allergy, asthma and hives to unusual symptoms not typically thought to be related to allergy or sensitivity.

As part of a comprehensive management plan for a variety of situations, NAET stands out as a unique and effective energy medicine technique.
