Intolerance, Sensitivity and Allergy
Elimination
Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET)
NAET is a revolutionary way of treating allergies, intolerances and sensitivities with long term effect. Dr Devi Nambudripad suffered severe ill health from birth. Qualifying in Western and Chinese medicine and kinesiology, she and her sister devised this treatment from a success in treating a life-threatening incident she was going through. You can read her amazing story on www.naet-europe.com. In her search to make her own life livable, she and her sister continue to treat and train people and assess NAET and its developments continually. Before NAET, she was unable to function on a daily basis, at times she would only be eating one or two food items day by day. Now she works as a busy therapist, travels the world on training tours, works on researching findings from NAET and cures her incidental allergic reactions as they arise. Thousands of people have benefited from this approach throughout the world.
Using muscle response testing (diagnostic kinesiology), it takes moments to reliably identify to what extent your body can process any nutrient or environmental agent. If your body is not dealing with let's say 'protein', then whenever you eat it, it is not utilised properly by your body which creates more stress for the mind/body and increasingly causes more problems. Using terminology from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) we say there is a 'blockage' in the body's 'energy flow' or ‘qi’. The blockage is easily and simply dispersed and 'cleared' from your system by a pleasant treatment of rubbing acupuncture points on the back and the limbs. One single day's avoidance of specific items relevant to the substance treated is all that’s usually required. The results I've seen from my NAET practice have been remarkable. People say things like 'I've been trying every kind of food I like, just to see if my old symptoms come back, but everything's been fine.' There are many testimonials in Devi's book 'Say Goodbye to Illness' which she recommends you read before you begin NAET treatment, if you wish to find out more about it.
We assess nutrients firstly, in order of their usage in the body, treating them one-by-one according to your body’s needs and capabilities at the time. A good proportion of people have no problems with any of these items or only onoe or two. Once we find the body is processing protein, calcium, vitamins, Sugars, minerals and salts effectively, if symptoms still remain, we continue to investigate in more detail and treat further as indicated by the MRT. Sometimes there are emotional issues involved and these are effectively treated in a very similar manner. Sometimes it is quite a surprise what the body is finding difficult to live with, and even more surprising when it no longer retains that problem and you start feeling healthy, physically, mentally emotionally and spiritually.
Some people know exactly what foods or chemicals they are allergic or sensitive to and they avoid those things. For most, avoidance means too many compromises to the diet and too many restrictions on their lives and which in itself acts as a stressor. When the immune system learns to deal optimally with whatever it comes in to contact with, then you find new freedoms and choices and the strength to enjoy them.
The techniques used in NAET also allow us to identify any nutritional deficiencies or excesses of nutrients and I include muscle response testing in Chris Astill Smith’s Metabolics mode whereby the underlying cause of your nutritional deficiency can be identified and treated with supplements working on the basic biochemistry of the body if that is what’s found to be the problem. As a naturopath I prefer the use of food-based and readily absorbable nutrients or herbs for most people or flower remedies. I prefer that people heal gently rather than using dramatic detoxification systems unless those are indicated for that individual.
People with persistent or intractable diagnoses such as hayfever, asthma, anaphylactic reactions to foods such as peanuts, pollen or bees can also be treated, though such serious problems often take more sessions than say, digestive health issues.
People with Arthritis, ADD and ADHD, Depression, Headaches, IBS, PMT, infertility, skin problems and all sorts of other diagnoses have also benefitted enormously from treating their food or environmental sensitivities.
Perhaps the best part about NAET for me is that if you have no allergies, intolerances or sensitivities at all, we can discover this right away and treat your health problems with flower remedies, herbs, supplements, ThetaHealing or whatever we find to be appropriate with muscle response testing and considerations of your current lifestyle.
What happens in a NAET consultation?
Initially, I ask clients to complete a couple of forms. One is a symptom checklist to make sure all symptoms are considered. The other asks for information required by law and / or questions best answered at home where information can be looked up, such as 'What is the name and address of your GP?' or 'What vaccinations have you had?'
At the first appointment which is 90minutes to 2hours, we discuss your main symptoms and use various diagnostic techniques to find out about their causes. The diagnostic techniques I use include diagnostic kinesiology (Muscle Response Testing), face, iris, nail, tongue and pulse diagnoses and ThetaHealing techniques.
Treatment will depend on the findings. In follow-up appointments (which are up to an hour), I may use other therapies, if they are indicated to support your NAET treatment such as herbs or supplements.
NAET is carried out fully-clothed, only shoes and watches are removed. Treatments are pleasant and relaxing. Avoidance of particular items is always after the treatment
Who is NAET suitable for?
NAET is a safe, natural, drugless, painless, non-invasive method. It is a great way simply to find out whether you have any intolerances, sensitivities or allergies. You can choose whether to eliminate these problems simply and painlessly with NAET. Pregnant women pass on the benefits of the treatment to their unborn foetus and babies of any age can be treated and will benefit as will people of advanced years and anyone between.
If you are too ill or have any kind of disability, permanent or temporary, then a 'surrogate' is used for Muscle Response Testing and sometimes for the back treatment too. This is as effective as being tested/treated yourself, just a little more involved, having someone else in the room.
An area of specific interest to me is pre-conception - for couples who wish to achieve the best level of health before conceiving. NAET is an excellent diagnostic and treatment tool for anyone.
TESTIMONIAL
I cannot wait to tell the world about the wonderful work of Anne Samuel and the miraculous Nambudripads Allergy Elimination Technique which she has so skilfully applied to me. A combination which has been so successful in treating my multiple problems and rapidly diminishing diet, that I have no hesitation in referring to her as an angel and N.A.E.T as a kingdom of heaven.
Until 16 years ago, I lived an active and healthy life always able to eat anything. Then, after working with extra dangerous pesticides, I suddenly developed intolerance to many foods plus problems with my eyes, throat, heart, stomach, skin and later my blood. My spleen has since become so shrunken that I am treated as having ‘no functioning spleen’ whilst extensive blood tests and biopsies have failed to find a reason.
Original blood tests showed me to be intolerant to:- yeast, cane sugar, coffee, chocolate, curry, chilli, black pepper, sunflower, sesame, runner beans, Brazil nuts, pineapple, peaches and raspberries. These have remained constant throughout the years.
More recently, I had also become intolerant to wheat, gluten, dairy products, smoked and cured foods, spices, cashew nuts and all fruit, whether fresh, canned or dried.
I was running out of foods and liquids suitable to eat and drink. With the exception of fresh meat, fish, vegetables and eggs, the entire stocks of supermarkets were harmful to me. Even the alternative foods made specifically for special diets as free from, gluten, yeast, dairy, etc, contained ingredients to which I was intolerant such as sunflower, sesame, cane sugar, chocolate and fruits. Very frustrating to find something as simple as rice milk contained sunflower and the one exception, Soya milk, conflicted with my medication.
Then I was told about N.A.E.T. and directed to its most qualified Practitioner in the district, Anne Samuel. My lucky day and one that quickly transformed my prospects and quality of life far beyond what I had ever considered possible.
With kinesiology tests Anne rapidly diagnosed my blockages of calcium, vitamin C, minerals, sugars, yeasts and nightshades and then went on to treat them one at a time in successive sessions. Sugars were reluctant to respond, requiring two sessions for all except glucose, which required a third. Yeast, one of the most volatile and long-standing troublemakers, required only two sessions before yielding to Anne's efforts to change.
After only six sessions, I was relishing the taste of fruit again with apples, pears, bananas, blackcurrants and blueberries successfully restored to my life. Other favourites quickly followed allowing me to eat any variety I wished, including the original outcasts, pineapple, peaches and raspberries. The clearance of yeast marked another huge victory, making a vast array of forbidden products now available to me, including my favourite glass of red wine.
From a downward spiral into the dark confines of intolerant and diminishing foods, Anne has suddenly reversed the trend and elevated me back into a bright new world where free and ample choice is the daily norm. There are added bonuses too. My body is at peace enjoying freedom from soreness and discomfort, whilst maintaining a more stable heart rhythm and a reduction in my cardiac medication by 25%. Triumph indeed.
As progress continues by overcoming more ingredients of my widespread intolerance still further at each session, I am in awe of the skills and techniques that have brought this speedy success. I find it remarkable that most of these outstanding results have been accomplished in a one-hour session, rather than taking weeks, months or even years to achieve. It is a fascinating and life-changing period for me during which time I have experienced only comfort and ease.
There have been no hidden extras for me to provide. All I have contributed are the standard fees, my time and a very open mind.
I now add my lifelong gratitude to Anne Samuel and N.A.E.T.
