Per the Allergy and Asthma Foundation of America, more than 50 million Americans have experienced various types of allergies each year. Allergies are the 6th leading cause of chronic illness in the U.S. NAET is a natural alternative allergy identification and treatment method without the use of scratch tests, shots, or drugs.
What is NAET and How Is It Different From Conventional Allergy Treatments
NAET is a natural, non-invasive, and drug-free alternative treatment blending Western and Eastern healing practices. Developed by Dr. Devi Nambudripad, Ph.D., M.D., D.C., L.Ac., who was looking for a way to overcome her own serious allergic reactions, NAET draws on elements of allopathic medicine (Western medical knowledge), kinesiology, chiropractic, acupuncture, Oriental medicine and nutrition. Her vast knowledge of both Eastern and Western medicine, combined with extensive research, led to this effective and successful technique.
An allergy is defined as an inappropriate or exaggerated reaction of the immune system to substances that, in the majority of people, causes no symptoms. These substances are called allergens.
The goal of conventional allergy treatments is to desensitize the immune system to the allergen through avoidance, medication, and/or injections of the offending allergen.
In contrast, rather than focusing specifically on the immune system, NAET works to reset the nervous system and re-program the brain’s negative response towards an allergen to a positive response. By making this change in the nervous system, it stops the immune system from attacking the offending allergen.
NAET is safe and effective for everyone, from infants to elderly patients.
