  Frequently Asked Questions

Q.How often do I have to do treatments?

A.
NAET does not require that you do a certain number of treatments per week or per month. After testing during the initial consultation, we will have an idea about how many treatments you will need to start with. The speed at which you complete those treatments is up to the patient. Some people are anxious to feel better and may choose to come everyday for awhile. For others, that is not possible due to their schedule or finances, so they may only be able to come once or twice a week. Even if a person can only come a couple of times per month, they will still get results, it will just take longer.

Q. Do I have to keep retreating the same substance over and over again?

A.
No, about 90% of the time one treatment will clear one allergy. The number of treatments will depend on the number of allergens that need to be cleared. Every once in awhile a person may need to be retreated for the same substance if it is a strong reaction for a person, but typically we only need to treat once for each substance.

Q. Is it OK for me to take medications while doing this treatment?

A.
Yes, it is advised to continue with any medications you may be taking. They will not interfere with the treatment and the treatment will not interfere with the medications. In many circumstances our goal is to get off of the medications but we always make sure you are ready first and check in with your perscribing physician so it can be done safely.

Q. "What are allergies?"

A.
Medical scientists are still researching to find the exact cause and nature of allergies, but may not have all the answers for years to come. From a Western medical point of view, allergy is an over-reaction by the immune system. In NAET®, allergies are viewed from a wholistic perspective, based on Oriental Medical principles. An allergy is a condition of unusual sensitivity of one person to one or more substances which may be harmless to the majority of other individuals. In the allergic person, the allergic substance, known as an allergen, is viewed by the brain as a threat to the body's wellbeing. Therefore, for our purposes, an allergy is defined in terms of what a substance does to the energy flow in the body. When contact is made with an allergen, it causes blockages in the energy pathways called meridians, or we can say, it disrupts the normal flow of energy through the body's electrical circuits. This energy blockage causes interference in communication between the brain and body via the nervous system. This blocked energy flow is the first step in a chain of events which can develop into an allergic response. Allergies are the result of energy imbalances in the body, leading to a diminished state of health in one or more organ system

.Q. "Traditional allergy testing and treatments sound painful and expensive and don't seem to deal with the real problem, the allergy.
How can I get rid of my allergies once and for all?"

A.
Now We Have N.A.E.T.
Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique is a truly revolutionary system for dealing with allergies... one of the most stubborn health problems facing mankind today. It is a natural, drugless, painless and non-invasive method which can be used safely on individuals of any age (infants to the elderly) and regardless of the individuals health. Allergies can be eliminated through N.A.E.T., along with the symptoms arising from the allergens. Allergens are cleared (treated) one at a time with this technique, and best results are obtained if allergens are cleared in a specific sequence. Normally only one item is treated on a given day. There is a short avoidance period following the treatment, usually just 3-4 hours. In most cases, that's all it takes... one session to eliminate an allergy. Individuals who are highly sensitive may sometimes require additional combination clearings.

Q. Can you treat for anaphylactic reactions?

A.
Yes, when a person has a severe life-threatening reaction, certain precautions are taken and several treatments may be necessary to clear the substance. A process of "testing" is also implemented in the office in safe, gradual stages.

Q. I've heard that you treat hormones, how can I be allergic to something my body makes?

A.
When our body's react to something produced within itself it is called an endogenous allergen. This happens all the time. A common example is in women with their menstrual cycles. Many women suffer with cramping, tender breasts, mood swings, headaches during or around their cycles. This is a reaction to the fluctuation in the production of hormones. Another common endogenous allergen is stomach acid or enzymes which can obviously cause digestive distress.

 

 

Yin-Yang theory from Oriental medical principles teaches the importance of maintaining homeostasis in the body. According to Oriental medical principles, “when the body is in perfect balance, no disease is possible.”.
Any disturbance in the homeostasis can cause disease. Any allergen capable of producing a weakening muscular effect in the body can cause disturbance in homeostasis. Hence, diseases can be prevented and cured by maintaining homeostasis.
According to acupuncture theory, acupuncture and/or Acupressure at certain acupuncture points is capable of bringing the body to a state of homeostasis by removing the energy blockages from the energy pathways known as meridians. When the blockages are removed, energy can flow freely through the energy meridians, thus bringing the body in perfect balance.
