Applied Kinesiology
Applied Kinesiology (AK), developed by Dr. George Goodheart in 1964, uses bioenergetic feedback through testing the strength of various muscles in the body. This highly individualized, in-depth sytem of analysis, allows the doctor to assess various aspects of a patient's state of health by evaluating and treating postural and muscular imbalances, neurovascular and neurolymphatic points, subluxation, cranial-sacral movement, acupuncture meridians and nutritional status. This is a highly effective treatment system which focuses on whole body care.
AK allows the skilled health practitioner to evaluate functional illness, which typically precedes disease.

This is a highly effective treatment system which focuses on whole body care. AK enables health investigation without intrusion. AK gives insight into the underlying causes and solutions to many functional health problems.
One of the biggest benefits of AK is it gives us a tool for discernment!
A/SERT
Allergy / Sensitivity Elimination and Reprogramming Technique (A/SERT)
What is A/SERT?
A/SERT (Allergy / Sensitivity Elimination and Reprogramming Technique) is a revolutionary treatment system based on the principles of Chiropractic, Acupuncture, and Applied Kinesiology (Muscle Response Testing). This technique was developed by Dr. John Brimhall, and is a modification of NAET (Nambudripads Allergy Elimination Technique) developed by Dr. Devi Nambudripad.
This treatment, in conjunction with the Six Step to Wellness Protocol, can bring about dramatic improvement -at times even total elimination- for all types of allergies. It is simple, non-invasive and extremely effective. It is currently practiced by hundreds of health practitioners, including MDs, nurses, acupuncturists, chiropractors, dentists, and, to some extent, allergy sufferers themselves.
How does A/SERT work?
A/SERT is based on the recognition that all things, animate and inanimate, in our universe have their own specific electromagnetic fields due to their atomic and molecular makeup, and that these fields affect each other. This is true for our bodies, rocks, pollen, mold, peanut butter, a flower, water, in short, everything. This electromagnetic energy is associated with meridians (energy pathways) in acupuncture, chi in Chinese Medicine, and can be demonstrated with Kirlian photography. Nuclear physicists can determine the type of atom by its electromagnetic frequency.
According to Dr. Devi Nambudripad, this is what happens: Your energy system and brain interpret a particular substance (a diamond ring, a whole wheat bagel, a peanut, hot water, sun light) as potentially harmful to your body, and your body reacts. For other people this same item is totally harmless. Your energy pathways freeze up as a way of defending the body against this unsuitable substance. This in turn blocks your energy meridians and, if this condition continues, the overall functioning of your body suffers.
A/SERT Diagnostics - Our fingertips are very sensitive to the electromagnetic energy of substances with which we come into contact. By placing a sample of a suspected allergen into a persons hand, and using Applied Kinesiology muscle testing, the A/SERT practitioner can determine whether or not a person reacts öweakä or östrongä to the substance, i.e., whether this substance causes an energy blockage in the patients body. Such blockages can cause a wide variety of symptoms, from sneezing and coughing to chronic diseases such as asthma.
A/SERT Desensitization - The A/SERT practitioner stimulates key points along the patients spine while the patient is holding the allergen. The doctor stimulates certain meridian points, specific organs and lobes of the brain with a Low Level Laser. A chemical change takes place in the autonomic nervous system, neutralizing any allergic reaction to the substance.
A/SERT reprograms the brain and the nervous system, and eliminates your bodys conditioned response to the 'allergen'. Environmental medicine has been dealing with hidden allergies for several decades. You try to avoid the allergenic substance in your life, you go on a rotation diet, and maybe you can manage. But with A/SERT you can continue to have contact with the very substance that made you sick.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold Laser Therapy
Where is this being used?
The Erchonia cold laser device has gained recent FDA approval for the non-surgical treatment of neck and shoulder complaints and is being used widely in the NFL and by the USPS tour de France team chiropractor. The beneficial effects of the Erchonia laser are currently being researched by leading plastic surgeons for use in liposuction proceedures.
How does it work?
When the body has an injury the cells are damaged and fail to function within normal parameters. Low level lasers penetrate deeply into the skin and work by restoring this abnormal cellular function. Physiologic effects include improved metabolism, circulation and tissue healing.
Laser therapy may be useful to you if you have any of the following:
tendonitis
frozen shoulder
fractures
post-operative wounds
sprain-strains
scar tissue
autoimmune diseases
chronic or acute pain
wound healing
arthritis
migraines
disc herniations
minor nerve damage
carpal tunnel syndrome
heavy metal detoxification

Foot Baths
Help your body avoid disease and results of aging using body detoxification via an ionizing footbath.
Body chemistry allows your human systems to build up toxins which cause chronic pain, loss of energy, sickness, lack of vitality and prevent the body from optimal functioning.
By providing a 30-minute relaxing session on a regular schedule you may relieve some of the toxic build up. Detox of heavy metals and other toxins may be possible through an Ionic Footbath.
Ionic detox therapy sessions have been performed in spas, clinics and wellness centers for years and now you can enjoy detox with an ion cleanse at home in privacy and comfort. Considering the expense of regular spa visits, using ionic detoxify products at home is a great option for those who enjoy the relaxing effects.
How Does an Ionic Footbath Work?
When you read the instructions on how a foot bath works, it seems simple enough. The ionic footbath unit is easily placed in your bathtub and ankle deep warm water creates the bath.
Turn the unit on and place your bare feet into the comfortable, relaxing spa-like footbath. The ionic equipment passes a tiny electric current through the water, creating ions that do all the work; you simply relax for one-half hour.
In theory, as the toxic substances leave your body through the feet and enter the ionic water, the water will become colored. As the session progresses, the water's color will deepen or even change as more toxic compounds are removed from the body. The osmosis-based process is harmless and the color of the water indicates what is being detoxed from the body.
If the ionic-enhanced water turns yellow-green, detox from the kidneys, bladder and urinary tract or female/prostate organs is occurring. Orange indicates toxin removal from joints. If the water becomes black, liver detox is occurring and other colors indicate other systems detoxing. It's easy to learn where your body is storing toxins with ionic products.
This body detoxification works great for those that have symptoms of edema, gout, osteoarthritis and many other ailments. Skin rashes, acne, dark eye circles, and uneven skin tone can be improved quickly with detoxification of the body.
There are a few people that should not use an ionic footbath. Those include anyone with a pacemaker or any battery-operated implant, anyone on medication to regulate heartbeat, organ transplant patients, and people that require specific levels of anti-seizure or psychiatric medications in their systems such as those with epilepsy or mental disorders. Eat before your footbath to avoid weakness from lowered blood sugar.
Learning how to detoxify a liver is important since toxins tend to collect there. This is crucial for anyone that has compromised liver function due to disease, aging, or other reasons. Gall bladder, kidneys and other organs become contaminated with toxic substances encountered in modern life.
In theory, a body detoxification via an ionizing footbath can make you feel and look younger, healthier and more energetic. Manufacturers of these devices relate disease-causing chemicals and body wastes do not have to remain inside your organs if you give a ionic footbath a try to see if this form of detox will make you feel better.
EB 305 - Energy Balancer
The EB 305 was designed and developed to restore the body's energy and balance while facilitating and aiding in its natural detoxification process. This device has been proven in clinical trials to balance and restore the body's Ph and electromagnetic energy.
How does it work?
The EB uses direct current similar to that of the human body to create an ionic field. The patient places their feet in the bioenergetic water to receive the flow of ions which increases cellular function. Studies have shown that more cellular ATP is produced during treatment which enhances the cells to work and detoxify at a higher rate.
You may benefit from the EB 305 if you suffer from:
arthritis
allergies
chronic pain
multiple chemical sensitivities
autoimmune diseases
edema
inflammation
