NETWORK SPINAL ANALYSIS

Network Spinal Analysis is a technique created by Dr. Donald Epstein DC in the mid 1980’s. This approach assists the brain in developing new strategies through low force contacts to the spine. One of the main causes of pain and disease in the human body can be traced to improper alignment of the vertebrae in your spinal column. This is called a subluxation. Through carefully applied pressure, massage, and manual manipulation of the vertebrae and joints, pressure and irritation on the nerves is relieved and joint mobility is restored, allowing your body to return to its natural state of balance, called homeostasis. Put another way, when the bones in your spine are allowed to go back to their proper positions, the nerve energy can resume its normal flow and your body’s natural healing processes can function properly.

NUTRITION RESPONSE TESTING

Nutrition Response Testing is a safe, natural and non-invasive system of analyzing the body to determine the underlying causes of ill health. When these causes are found and corrected through natural, nutritional means, the body can repair itself and maintain more optimum health.

WHAT IS NUTRITION RESPONSE TESTING?

Nutrition Response Testing is a safe, natural and non-invasive system of analyzing the body to determine the underlying causes of ill health. When these causes are found and corrected through natural, nutritional means, the body can repair itself and maintain more optimum health.

Nutrition Response Testing was developed by Freddie Ulan, DC in the 1990s. It is very precise and scientific and is being used by thousands of healthcare practitioners across the US.

However, if we were to analyze you using Nutrition Response Testing before it was explained to you, you might find it strange, or simply not believable – because it is probably very different from anything you have used or experienced.

If you want restored health and longevity it is important that you understand what Nutrition Response Testing is and what our recommendations are based on. Otherwise, you are less likely to comply with your program and you won’t experience the amazing benefits that are routinely attainable. Does Nutrition Response Testing Really Work? Yes. This technology is being successfully used by thousands of healthcare practitioners across the country, helping hundreds of thousands of patients to overcome a wide variety of health problems and achieve more optimum health. It has been featured in numerous publications

WHAT IS THE NUTRITION RESPONSE TESTING PROCESS?

In Nutrition Response Testing we do not diagnose or treat disease. There are two parts to our process:

  1. The analysis (the assessment of your body’s current health status)

  2. The personalized health improvement program (using designed clinical nutrition).

The Analysis:

  • The analysis is done by testing the body’s nervous system.

  • Nutrition Response Testing analyzes different areas on the surface of the body that relate to the state of health and to the flow of energy in every organ and function of the body.

  • This information is derived from the part of the nervous system whose job it is to regulate the functions of the organs.

Interestingly, since the human anatomy has not changed significantly in thousands of years, the utilization of these organs/areas has become extremely useful in Nutrition Response Testing because they are so accurate!

Each area that gives a response represents a specific organ, tissue, or function, and indicates the effect that energy, or the lack of energy, is having on the body. By testing these organs/areas, we have a system of monitoring your body at each visit that has proven to be extremely accurate clinically, and that helps us identify exactly what the body needs and how well we are.

HOW IS THE NUTRITION RESPONSE TESTING ANALYSIS DONE?

Instead of connecting electrodes to the areas being tested, as in an EKG, the Nutrition Response Testing practitioner contacts these areas with his/her own hand. With the other hand, he/she will test the muscle of your extended arm. If the organ/area being contacted is “active” the nervous system will respond by reducing energy to the extended arm, and the arm will weaken and drop. This drop signifies underlying stress or dysfunction, which can be affecting your health.

WHAT IS THE NUTRITION RESPONSE TESTING PROCESS?

Let’s say the liver or kidney areas are active. Then what? Our next step is to test specific nutritional formulas of the highest quality that have stood the test of time and are proven to bring the organ/areas back to strength.

Decades of clinical experience tell us that when we have found the correct nutritional supplements, as indicated by this procedure, we can devise a clinically designed program for your body.

This will be a highly personalized nutritional supplement schedule. We have identified the most important first step in correcting the underlying deficiency or imbalance that caused the organ/area to be active in the first place. By following the program as precisely as possible, you are well on your way to restoring normal function and improving your health. It’s that simple!

In medicine, the medical doctor makes a diagnosis and then uses drugs or surgery to attack or suppress the symptom, or to surgically remove the “offending” organ or malfunctioning part. In Nutrition Response Testing, we use designed clinical nutrition to correct the cause of the problem, so that the body can regain the ability to correct itself.

WHAT IS DESIGNED CLINICAL NUTRITION?

“Designed Clinical Nutrition” is exactly that: designed (especially prepared based on a specific plan) clinical (pertaining to the results gotten in clinical use or actual practice on huge numbers of patients over many years) nutrition (real food, designed by nature to enable the body to repair itself and grow healthfully).

In most cases it is concentrated whole food, in a tablet, capsule or powder, prepared using a unique manufacturing process that preserves all the active enzymes and vital components that make it work as Nature intended.

These real food supplements have been designed to match the needs of the body, as determined by the positive response shown when tested against the active Nutrition Response Testing organs/areas that were found on your individual Nutrition Response Testing analysis. These are nutrients you are simply not getting, or not assimilating, in your current diet.

These deficiencies may be due to your past personal eating habits and routines, but it is for sure due, to a large extent, to the lack of quality in the foods commercially available in grocery stores or restaurants today.

An example of a whole food could be carrots. Carrots are high in Vitamin A Complex. A “complex” is something made up of many different parts that work together. Synthetic Vitamin A does not contain the whole “Vitamin A Complex” found in nature. So, if we were looking for a food high in Vitamin A, carrots might be one of our choices.

If one were actually deficient in any of the components of Vitamin A Complex, one would be wise to seek out a supplement that was made from whole foods that were rich in this complex – not from chemicals re-engineered in a laboratory to look like one little part of the Vitamin A Complex that has erroneously been labeled as “Vitamin A.”

Over-the-counter vitamins are pharmaceutically engineered chemical fractions of vitamin structures reproduced in a laboratory. These cannot be used in lieu of whole food supplements in a designed clinical nutrition program. The label “natural” is misleading when applied to nutritional products, as the FDA will approve such labeling based on a small percentage of naturally sourced components. Such products don’t correct existing imbalances and may introduce new ones.

Your vitality and energy are derived from live food.

Most foods available today are dead, or are not really foods at all: boxed cereals, canned vegetables, soda pop, etc. You can readily understand the difference between dead, devitalized pseudo-foods, with the synthetic or isolated vitamins on the one hand, and “Designed Clinical Nutrition” and a diet of real foods, on the other.

So-called “scientific research,” done with these shoddy substitutes, repeatedly “proves” that vitamins don’t do much good for anyone! Can you imagine who pays for these “studies”?

THERMOGRAPHY TESTING

Thermography is a non-invasive and painless way to screen without radiation or compression of the breast. It uses state of the art medical infrared technology to assess heat in the breast. Comparative exams create a baseline for monitoring breast health based on individual thermal patterns and changes.

HOW DOES THERMOGRAPHY WORK?

Modern Thermologists use digital cameras that record infrared radiation emitted by the human body and convert them into temperature readings and plot them on a computer screen. Thermologist’s are then able to identify areas of hot and cold in relation to the opposite side of the body. Areas with decreased blood flow will have colder temperature readings and areas of increased blood flow will have warmer temperature readings.

Breast tumors and some other tumors are able to found on thermal imaging through the process known as Angioneogenesis, the formation of new blood vessel that supply nutrients to a tumor. This asymmetric increase in blood flow creates an increase in temperature that can be picked up by medical thermal cameras. Many times this blood supply increases over time as a tumor grows and is an important part of baseline studies and the ability for them to identify a tumor at the earliest possible moment.

WHY CHOOSE BREAST THERMOGRAPHY?

Breast Thermography is an FDA cleared adjunctive tool for detecting breast cancer. Breast Thermography is:

100% safe

Radiation free

Contact free

Compression free

Comfortable and convenient

Effective for women with dense breasts and implants

Effective for establishing an individualized baseline of breast health

An effective screening tool for women under 40 who are overlooked by current breast cancer screening guidelines

Extensively researched (over 30 years of research and 800 peer-reviewed articles)

Able to identify approximately 95% of early stage breast cancer in a multi-modal approach

THERMOGRAPHY VS MAMMOGRAPHY

Thermography is an effective, safe, and comfortable adjunctive procedure for screening for breast cancer. Thermography is NOT a stand-alone diagnostic test, but is a safer and more comfortable way for women to screen for breast cancer more frequently. In some cases, breast thermography has detected breast cancer in women with negative mammograms. The November 2012 article in the New England Journal of Medicine brought this fact to light. “Mammograms have failed to reduce fatalities in cancer across a population base as a sole method of screening.” Thus, a multi-modal approach, incorporating more methods than just mammography, could be life-saving to many women.

Additionally, a very important area of consideration is the neglected category of women under the age of 40, as well as women with dense breasts who are unable to be effectively screened with mammography and the current standard of care. A push is currently underway to use thermography as a method to cover this gap. There are over 20,000 cases of breast cancer in the age group of women under 40 each year in the USA. When cancer occurs in a younger woman it is usually a much more aggressive form, and less likely to respond to treatment. There is currently no routine screening test for women under 40. We propose that thermography may fill this void and should be investigated as a viable test for these women.
