What is a holistic allergist?
A holistic allergist has a different definition for "allergy" than a traditional (or medical) allergist does. A traditional allergist defines allergy as “a reaction to an otherwise harmless substance, food or environmental, that results in an immune system response”. This reaction consists of the release of histamine, leading to an inflammatory reaction.
A holistic allergist defines allergy as "a bioenergetic counteraction to a given substance, which results in a reaction within the body". This reaction does not necessarily involve an immune system response, and so may also be referred to as an "intolerance".
A holistic allergist uses Biofeedback Analysis as a method for detecting intolerances. Biofeedback Analysis is a highly effective health screening procedure used to obtain information from the body to determine what is needed in order to heal itself. A particular muscle is isolated and exposed to a specific substance to determine either a positive or negative response. A weakness in the indicator muscles reveals a disruption in the energy flow and therefore the presence on an allergen. An increase of strength in the indicator muscle confirms the body’s ability to process the substance being tested. No needles required!
A holistic allergist uses a method called Bioenergetic Intolerance Elimination (BIE) to "clear" intolerances. A lightweight state-of-the-art device (GSR-120 BIE Unit) is used to transmit a low electronic frequency directly onto various acupressure points (without the use of needles) on the body to stimulate and clear any blockages in energy. During this procedure, the client is exposed to the allergen’s energetic frequencies produced by the GSR-120 BIE Unit. While the blockages are clearing, the body’s cells are literally being reprogrammed to recognize the allergen’s frequency. When this non-invasive and painless procedure is complete, the body will no longer see the allergen or intolerance as a threat when exposed to it, therefore ceasing to produce any adverse reactions. No more allergy symptoms!
What is a holistic nutritionist?
A holistic nutritionist focuses on the whole person, acknowledging that everyone is unique and, hence, has unique needs. The goal is to unify the physical, nutritional, environmental, emotional and spiritual components of a client’s life to promote healing and wellbeing.
A holistic nutritionist believes that there is no one diet or lifestyle that is right for everyone all of the time; there are no miracle foods or herbs that will cure all illnesses. Because everyone is different, every effort is made to understand each person's individual needs, likes and dislikes in order to formulate the best diet, supplement, and lifestyle approach for that person.
A holistic nutritionist is aware that each generation's health is slightly more compromised than the previous one, due to environmental deterioration; therefore, it is more important than ever to consume foods of the best quality. There is a direct relationship between what we eat (and our lifestyles) and how we feel, which ultimately affects our quality of life. Only live, natural, good quality wholesome foods can produce the degree of health that brings peace of mind and enjoyment of life!
A holistic nutritionist uses a combination of diet, supplement, and lifestyle changes to optimize your health!
A holistic nutritionist also often incorporates cleansing and detoxification strategies to help you on your path to optimum health.
