Nutrition is an important element in everyone's life and a key component in healing with natural medicine. Without adequate nutrition, the body will not perform well. For the athlete, optimum body function is essential.
Did you know... You can take all the herbs and vitamins you want, but you will never really get well unless
your diet is adequate.
Did you know... Eating a healthy diet in this fast paced society can be much easier than you think?
You only have to know how.
Nutritional Analysis
Diet is a key element in healing, peak performance and optimal health. Your diet is analyzed to make sure that you are consuming the correct proportions of proteins, essential fatty acids, carbs, fiber, micro and macro nutrients, etc.. However, just consuming the right foods is not enough.
It is how your individual body is breaking down and assimilating these foods that is of greater importance. For example, if there is a problem in digestion, your body is not going to operate at its optimum, which leads to disease and dysfunction and delays the healing process.
The weird part? You may not even have symptoms of digestive dysfunction.
Your digestive system is a HUGE key to your health!
Bio Scan
Using a muscle response test (MRT), (see kinesiology for a detailed explanation) all organ, hormonal
and microbial reflexes are tested for any imbalances which may indicate improper or reduced function, reduced assimilation of nutrients or elimination of cellular wastes, hormonal imbalances, enzyme deficiencies, or the presence of microbes such as viruses, bacteria, parasites and yeast. BIO SCAN is used to detect imbalances that may be contributing to your condition.
For Preventative Maintenance
The Bio Scan is also utilized to detect even the slightest imbalances early on, so serious problems can be prevented, and so optimum function can be restored.
It is essential to understand that although you may feel very healthy, if a slight imbalance in the system is occurring, without correction, the imbalance will increase and cause a cascade of negative effects throughout the system. In other words, one imbalance creates another, creating another, and so on.... which if left unchecked, will decrease function in the entire body, and at some point will create health problems and disease later on down the road.
It is best to have a BIO SCAN done every season, takes less than 30 minutes and includes counsel on how to restore any imbalance detected.
Injuries: In working with injuries of any type, it is imperative to perform a Bio Scan (which takes only a few minutes), in order to check for imbalances in the system. REASON: Because decreased or imbalanced function can and will delay the healing process of the injury.
Correcting Imbalances: Sometimes changing the proportions or types of foods consumed is enough. Other times, depending on the underlying factors creating the imbalance, a specialized nutrient combination may be necessary to correct the problem. We use high potency, all natural, certified organic, pharmaceutical grade nutrients which are synergistically designed to target specific problem areas. (Like having a prescription from your doctor, only these are all natural).
Accelerated healing of injuries and other conditions call for an additional amount of specific nutrients which is determined by an MRT and customized to your individual needs.
Enzyme Therapy
Enzymes are responsible for every chemical reaction that occurs in the body. Enzymes are substances that make life possible. No mineral, vitamin, or hormone can do any work without enzymes. They are the manual workers that build the body from proteins, carbohydrates and fats. The body may have the raw building materials, but without the workers, "enzymes", the work cannot begin. In other words, you can have the bricks and mortar to build a brick house, but if you don't have the workers, your house won't get built or repaired.
Think of it this way: not only does a body need enzymes to break down different types of foods, but the enzymes are the catalysts that make all the other chemical reactions take place. This is everything from the energy made in the mitochondria of the cells, to the elimination of waste products. Without enzymes there would be no building or repairing of tissues, no breathing, no thinking, no life.
Most people are enzyme deficient. Enzyme deficiency reduces proper function of the body, leads to chronic conditions and delays the healing process, especially with injuries. Many metabolic enzymes are produced
by the body, but not in sufficient amounts for optimum function. Enzymes are also found in raw fruits
and vegetables.
Deficiencies are caused by:
- Pesticides and chemicals
- Genetically engineered foods
- Pasteurization
- Irradiated foods
- Cooking foods
- Microwaved foods
- Processed foods
- Fluoridated water
- Electromagnetic fields
- Heavy metals
- Amalgam dental fillings and root canals
Enzyme Therapy promotes and accelerates the healing process. A muscle response test (MRT) is performed to identify the specific type of enzyme deficiency present.
Food Allergies or Sensitivities (scroll down to see environmental allergies)
Food allergies or sensitivities are most often hidden because symptoms don't usually appear at the time that foods are ingested. In fact, the body can have reactions to vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients of the everyday diet.
Symptoms can appear days later as aches and pains, headaches, insomnia, fatigue, acne, dizziness, ringing in the ears, asthma, diarrhea, constipation, heart palpitations, itching,
anxiety, hyperactivity, joint pain, depression, and the list goes on.
In many cases there are no symptoms occurring at all. But when there is a food sensititivity even without any symptoms, the body sees that food as a foreign invader, much like a germ, and the immune system is stimulated in order to respond to the invader. In other words, your body is always in a battle causing the nervous system to "freeze up", which over time will create imbalances in the body, leading to environmental allergies and further imbalances, which eventually result in disease.
Hidden food sensitivies not only engage your body in a constant battle, but in doing so takes a lot of energy out of building and repairing the body, especially injuries and chronic conditions. It is paramount
to detect any hidden food sensitivities in order to facilitate proper healing.
Detection of sensitivities is done using a muscle response test (MRT) while you hold vials containing substances of specific food items. If a food, vitamin or mineral is detected as a sensitivity, (weakness of the indicator muscle used in the strength test) then the food or substance is removed from the diet for a short period of time, usually six weeks. In a normal elimination diet the food is removed for ninety days, however, the desensitization technique we
use in the clinic speeds up the process of total elimination of the substance from the body.
Allergy/Sensitivity Desensitization and Elimination
This technique is a highly effective variation of Dr.Devi Nambudripad's work called N.A.E.T. (Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique).
The desensitization and elimination technique works by "resetting the body" and retraining the brain, nervous system and subsequently the immune system to no longer react to the allergenic substance.
All you have to do is hold the items of sensitivity while the technique is being
employed
Environmental Allergies (Seasonal)
Get Rid of Them for Good!
You are instructed how to gather plant material including grasses, weeds, tree leafs, mold and dust from around the home and other areas the patient visits on a regular basis. Each item is tested using the muscle response test (MRT) and if the indicator muscle goes weak to that item, then that item or substance is held by you during the desensitization technique.
This is highly effective in virtually eliminating seasonal allergies in usually just one treatment, and may need to be repeated once a year. People that have had to rely on allergy medications or allergy shots have found complete relief and no longer need their medications.
Occassionaly a person may have to have a few desensitizations to completely eliminate the allergy, but this is usually the case only if that person has several
serious imbalances going on in the body, and/or is taking allergy injections.
