Question:
Acupuncture treatment cured my allergies.
Answer:
I am new to this website and have looked at a few of your
requests for help with food allergies. The good news is that food ar any
other allergy is completely treatable prmanently with an acupuncture
treatment called NAET. I am not selling anything, I promise.
I use to suffer from ADD, hypoglycimia, and seisures. All of which were
caused by food allergies.
Below is information about NAET. I hope you enjoy it and please let all
of us know how you are doing on this treatment. Get ready for a miracle.
N.A.E.T., the Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique, is a new
approach to eliminating allergies and was developed by Dr. Devi
Nambudripad, L.Ac.,O.M.D.,R.N., D.C. Her extensive background in
multidisciplinary fields of medicine gave her the foundation to create
this new approach in allergy treatment. Dr. Devi herself had suffered
many years of debilitating allergies and would often treat herself with
acupuncture to calm the reactions that plagued her from food allergies.
She found herself limited to a diet of mainly rice, broccoli, and
cauliflower. The specific turning point that led to Dr. Devi's new
discovery came one day when she was giving herself an acupuncture
treatment following a bad reaction to carrots. Feeling unusually good
after the treatment, she realized the difference was that she had been in
physical contact with the carrot during her treatment. This was an
exciting new discovery that led her to research the effects of treating
an allergy with acupuncture while having physical contact with the
offending food item. Over a course of years she developed a method based
on kinesiology (muscle reflex testing), and a combination of Acupuncture
and Acupressure. The N.A.E.T. method makes it possible for a person to be
treated for an allergy, and later to be able to enjoy the food and
experience health instead of bad reactions. Allergies can come from
different sources. Most allergies are genetically inherited from someone
in the family line who has the same allergies. Allergies can skip a
generation, further obscuring the source. Allergies can also occur from
weaknesses in either parent during the time of conception, or be due to
the mother's exposures during pregnancy. This exposure affects the infant
on a cellular/genetic level. Exposures that may weaken a woman during
pregnancy include radiation, chemicals, drugs, disease toxins, or extreme
emotional traumas. A person can be allergic to foods, sun light, other
forms of radiation, perfumes, chemicals, environmental conditions,
plants, animals, antibiotics, vaccinations, their own body chemicals like
hormones, neurotransmitters, and most surprisingly, other people. During
a treatment with Dr. Devi, a patient is tested by kinesiology (muscle
reflex testing) to determine underlying meridian weaknesses, and then
with a sampling of various food items. The first food items tested are
key foundational vitamins, minerals and their associated food sources.
Later on a whole range of other food, chemical, and biological items will
be tested (there are over 250 items in the test kit). During the first
visit, the core foundational nutritional factors are checked. A patient
holds a sample bottle of a food item, while a kinesiology test is
performed. If the arm loses all strength, it is a sign of
allergy/incompatibility. When there is a weak response, the sample is
further tested to determine which organ/meridians are weakened by the
offending item, and if the level is on the physical,
nutritional/chemical, emotional, or meridian level. Treatment consists of
a gentle acupressure technique applied along the spine areas while the
patient holds the offending sample item. I don't think that anything science doesn't understand is
"hocus-pocus"; the area of allergies is hardly well-understood.
I think the boldest statement you can make is that science has
neither proven nor disproven the efficacy of NAET (so far as I
know). Since drug companies aren't lining up to fund studies of
this nature, I doubt that will change any time soon. Having said that, my attitude toward alternative medicine had
been similar to Christine's until recently. Over the course of
this year my food allergies went from my being allergic to sulfites
only (so far as I knew) at the beginning of the year to being
anaphylactic to everything except meat by August, with no help
whatsoever being offered through peer-reviewed, juried, controlled
studies on allergies. Despite being completely desparate, and
worried that I might not live through the year, I had to read
several reports of others' good results from NAET (on the EPD list)
before I considered trying it. It just sounded too good to be true.
