Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Technique
What is Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Technique?
Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET) is an alternative therapy that claims to identify and treat allergies by using muscle testing and acupressure/acupuncture to “reset” the body’s response to specific substances.
It suggests that allergies are caused by "energy blockages" rather than just physical immune responses.
How Does It Work?
Diagnosis: A practitioner uses muscle testing (applied kinesiology) to check the body's energy response to various substances (allergens).
Treatment: While the patient holds the allergen vial, the practitioner performs acupressure or acupuncture along the spine and specific "gate points" on the limbs to "reset" the nervous system.
Goal: This process aims to stimulate the nervous system, changing the body's perception of the allergen from harmful to harmless, thereby removing the allergic response.
Process: Patients typically start with basic food and environmental allergens and may need multiple sessions to address all sensitivities.
The benefits of NAET
Non-Invasive & Drug-Free: The technique uses no needles, blood tests, or medications, making it suitable for all ages, including infants, pregnant women, and the elderly.
Root Cause Treatment: Unlike traditional medications that manage symptoms, NAET focuses on identifying and neutralizing the underlying energy blockages triggered by allergens.
Chronic Conditions: Migraines, chronic fatigue, and joint pain.
Broad Symptom Relief: It is used to alleviate a wide range of issues, including: Respiratory & Skin, Digestive Health, Chronic Conditions, Improved Nutrient Absorption and Emotional Wellness etc.
Improved Nutrient Absorption: By treating the "Basic 15" essential nutrients (like Vitamin C and Calcium), the body may better absorb vitamins, leading to increased energy and a stronger immune system.
Emotional Wellness: Reducing physiological stress from allergens can help improve conditions like anxiety, depression, and ADHD.
Frequently Ask Questions
-
NAET is generally considered safe and non-invasive. It does not involve drugs or injections. However, people with severe, life-threatening allergies (such as anaphylaxis) should not discontinue conventional medical care.
-
No. NAET uses acupressure (massaging points) or acupuncture (thin needles). For children or those afraid of needles, acupressure is the standard choice. The diagnostic part—Muscle Response Testing—is also non-invasive and painless.
-
The number of sessions varies, but:
Basic treatment may require 15–30 sessions
Chronic or complex conditions may require more
Each allergen is typically treated one at a time
-
Generally, no. The theory suggests that the body’s energy pathways (meridians) can only handle "reprogramming" for one electromagnetic signature at a time. Treating multiple allergens at once is believed to confuse the nervous system and lead to an unsuccessful clearance.
-
After treatment, patients must avoid the treated allergen for about 25 hours to allow the body to stabilize and “lock in” the correction.
-
NAET is often considered a wellness or elective treatment and is not typically covered by insurance. We can provide a receipt for possible reimbursement, depending on your plan.
