| ALLERGY ELIMINATION A New Allergy Treatment Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique NAET Introduction to NAET By Paul R. Honan, M.D. |
As occurs with many asthmatics, I outgrew my childhood asthma. It returned as severe 24-hour year-
round asthma in 1987. For ten years I struggled with the best of what conventional medicine had to
offer and found it wanting. As a physician, I thought I could find access to the best in medicine. Only
minor relief of symptoms with medications including cortisone and avoidance of foods and inhalants to
which I was allergic was offered as treatment. Even so, I had several attacks of anaphylaxis. An
anaphylaxis is a sudden onset allergic reaction. It can affect many organs. Two of mine were life
threatening.
In 1997, I met ophthalmologist Peter Holyk, M.D. from Sebastian Florida who introduced me to
Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET). Initially I rejected NAET as quackery because
of my traditional physician bias against alternative medicine. Our children forced the issue with a
Christmas gift of a trip to Dr. Holyk’s office. I could not refuse a gift from the children. Dr. Holyk
treated me with NAET. My asthma improved. Then I attended Dr. Devi Nambudripad’s NAET
training course and eliminated many other allergies. I have had no more attacks of anaphylaxis.
Over the years, I have joked with Dr. Devi Nambudripad saying that she ruined my comfortable
professional life. I had been satisfied thinking I was practicing state-of-the art medicine. But after she
introduced NAET and the wonderful world of energy medicine, my professional practice would never be
the same. NAET is used to treat many allergic conditions in my medical practice. Dr. Devi is my hero!
Allergies cause hay fever, itchy eyes, asthma, sinus congestion, bronchitis, eczema, poison ivy, and other
skin conditions. Other allergic symptoms may include stomach and intestinal upsets. A severe form that
develops suddenly and can be life threatening is called anaphylaxis.
The reason that some people develop allergies and others do not is not known. Allergies can begin or
develop at any age through out life.
The usual management of allergies is to identify the offending substance and avoid it or suppress the
symptoms with medications.
A new treatment called Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET) can actually eliminate
allergies from the body. NAET is one method of Energy Medicine. Some doctors consider energy
Medicine without the use of drugs as the exciting future of medicine.
A DICTIONARY OF TERMS TO UNDERSTAND ALLERGY ELIMINATION
ALLERGY is an abnormal body response to substances that can be swallowed, inhaled, touches the skin or are
injected. The reason for allergy response is unknown.
ALLERGEN is the name given to a substance to which a person is allergic.
NAMBUDRIPAD ALLERGY ELIMINATION TECHNIQUE (NAET) is a non-medical, non-surgical
method for eliminating allergies from the body. While allergy medicines work by suppressing allergy symptoms,
NAET produces changes in the body so that an allergen no longer causes symptoms. The treatment involves
stimulating the nerves at the side of the spine while the patient holds the substance for which he or she is being
treated in the fingers. A treatment usually takes about a half hour.
HOW MANY NAET TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED?
The numbers of treatments required depend on the number of substances to which a person is allergic. Some
people may be allergic to 2 or 3 substances and require 2 or 3 treatments. Others may require up to 10 or more
treatments.
WHEN SHOULD RELIEF OF SYMPTOMS OCCUR?
Some people experience relief of symptoms after the first NAET treatment. Others allergic to several substances
may not notice relief of symptoms until after a few treatments. There may be one strong allergen and relief will
occur only after it is eliminated from the body. The total allergy load includes all the substances to which a person
is allergic. Occasionally a person may not experience complete relief until the total allergy load has been
eliminated.
HOW AND WHY DOES NAET WORK?
Dr. Devi Nambudripad developed NAET from her training and experience with Chinese acupuncture. The
Chinese describe 12 energy meridians (pathways or channels) in the body. In the state of wellness energy is said
to flow through the pathways freely and unobstructed. In illness the energy flow in one or more pathways is said
to be blocked or obstructed. Dr. Devi says that NAET opens up blocked energy pathways thus eliminating
symptoms and allowing wellness to become re-established.
NAET is one method of energy medicine. Western medicine and western culture are for the most part
unacquainted with eastern medicine. We accept the good and also adverse reactions of the body to medication.
We are not acquainted with or understand the concept of energy medicine as a method of healing.
Patients have expressed their gratitude for the welcomed relief of allergy symptoms following NAET treatments.
They confess that they had had great doubts that such treatments could be effective and nearly backed out from
submitting to NAET. Then they jokingly comment that they still do not understand how such treatments can be
effective but admit they really work well.
ARE THERE ADVERSE REACTIONS WITH NAET?
No serious reactions or side effects have been reported. Occasionally during NAET treatments temporary mild
nausea, tingling in the hands or feet, headache, burning sensation in the skin or red skin of the face may occur.
When these mild reactions do occur it usually is followed by a successful elimination of allergies. The very minor
temporary reactions are in great contrast to sometimes serious reactions to some drugs.
NAET TREATMENT GOAL is to eliminate all allergies from the body. Most allergic people are aware of one
or a few main allergens. They may not be aware of several minor allergens.
ORIGIN OF NAET: Dr. Devi Nambudripad in southern California was highly allergic to many foods. Her diet
was limited to broccoli and rice. She discovered NAET in the early 1980’s to eliminate her own allergies. The
new method involves the use of energy medicine and Eastern medicine not yet taught in most US medical schools.
It involves no medications or surgery. It alters reaction of the body so it no longer considers an allergen (eg Cat)
to be an enemy of the body and cause an allergic reaction.
DIAGNOSIS OF ALLERGIES traditionally involves skin tests with skin injections, scratch tests or patch tests.
NAET uses a more efficient non-needle method called Neuromuscular Sensitivity Testing (NST). It takes
advantage of a phenomenon of weak muscles when the allergic substance (allergen) is held in the fingers. The
finger pads contain the sensitive receptor nerves. Any group of muscles can be used to elicit weakness. Usually
the arm muscles are used. An arm is extended at a right angle to and in front of the body with the thumb pointed
downward toward the feet. The suspected allergen substance is held in the fingers of the other hand. A second
person applies steady downward pressure on the forearm. A weakness of the arm muscles indicates an allergy to
the substance. NST POSITIVE INDICATES A MUSCLE WEAKNESS AND THAT THE PERSON IS
ALLERGIC TO THE SUBSTANCE BEING TESTED. NST NEGATIVE MEANS NO MUSCLE
WEAKNESS AND THAT THE PERSON IS NOT ALLERGIC TO THAT SUBSTANCE.
ANAPHYLAXIS is a rapid onset allergic reaction that may be life threatening. It can occur from foods, inhaled
substances, medications taken by mouth or injected and substances that contact or are injected into the skin such
as insect stings.
Symptoms of anaphylaxis may include weakness, perspiration, hives, intense itching, angioedema (rapid swelling of
tissues), sneezing, nose running, closing of the throat, sudden severe asthma, asphyxia, rapid heart beat, very low
blood pressure, palpitations, fainting, heart attack, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, uterus contractions,
bladder contractions and seizure.
Many allergens can cause anaphylaxis. Some common allergens are peanuts, pecans, mushrooms, shellfish,
sulfites used to preserve color and freshness in vegetables in restaurants, MSG, strawberries, bee stings, dye
injected to take kidney x-rays, and fluorescein injected to take pictures in the eyes. The usual management of
anaphylaxis is avoidance of the allergen. People who are subject to attacks of anaphylaxis are advised to carry
Epi Pens for self-injection of epinephrine.
Anaphylaxis can be treated or prevented by identifying and removing allergens with NAET.
SERUM SICKNESS is a term used to describes allergic reactions to penicillin, sulfa drugs and other
medications that cause fever, skin rashes, and hemorrhages under the skin and arthritis. The reactions may begin
shortly after taking the medications or be delayed 10 to 14 days. The condition can be treated or prevented with
NAET.
