Auriculotherapy is the stimulation of the auricle of the external ear for the diagnosis and treatment of health conditions in other parts of the body. It is also known as ear acupuncture or auricular acupuncture when the stimulation is achieved by the insertion of acupuncture needles, whereas the term auriculotherapy often refers to electrical stimulation of the surface of ear reflex points. Specific points on the ear can also be stimulated by manual pressure, referred to as auricular acupressure or ear reflexology. Acupuncture points on the ear can also be stimulated with lasers, magnets, and ear pellets. What health conditions are most helped by auriculotherapy? Because every part of the external ear connects through the microsystem remote reflexes to every part of the body, a wide variety of health problems are relieved by auriculotherapy. Almost all health conditions can be affected to some degree by stimulating reactive ear points. The most commonly reported uses of auriculotherapy have been for the control of chronic pain, detoxification from addictive drugs, relief of nausea, and reduction of hypertension. How are other conditions relieved by auriculotherapy? By facilitating a balancing of energy throughout the body macrosystems or by correcting pathological reflex centers in the brain, stimulation of the auricular acupuncture microsystem can lead to a homeostatic state whereby any form of stress or pain is lessened. Stimulation of the specific ear reflex points that correspond to a particular area of the body leads to either a reduction of excess stimulation or an enhancement of diminished under activity of the affected region. The overall effect of auriculotherapy is to create a more balanced condition throughout the body. Return to top EMG Subluxation Station  What is Subluxation (misalignment)? It is a problem in the spine where an abnormal position/movement of the vertebrae disturbs communication within the Central Nervous System causing a disturbance in the body. Your body can be malfunctioning for months, even years, before you experience any symptoms. Since symptoms are always the last to show and the first to go, it is important to monitor the function of your nervous system, which is why your chiropractor utilizes the Insight Millennium. Do the Insight Millennium tests hurt? Absolutely not. The tests do not utilize any needles, electrical shock, or heat. They are receiving important information from your Central Nervous System. Why do we administer these tests? Our purpose for administering these tests is to detect and pinpoint abnormal function in the spine which cannot be seen on X-ray. Abnormal spinal function causes abnormal nervous system disturbance. How will this test benefit me? For years, a major concern of the public has been, "why do I have to keep coming back when I am pain-free?" or "how do I know if I am getting the proper amount of adjustments?" Now you are able to actually see the changes, and it will be easier to understand the amount and type of care you are receiving. Because of this technology, we can provide a "tailor made" program to meet your specific health needs. Return to top IQS Acu-point Assessment   What is an interactive query system? It is an advanced, computerized procedure for querying the body’s Innate Intelligence. Whether you’re suffering from a serious ailment, a chronic health condition, or you’re healthy and want to stay that way – IQS can help in the pursuit of health. Why use IQS? When you visit your health care practitioner, one of the most important things he does for you is provide a complete health evaluation. This can be complex, especially considering the myriad of conditions that can lead to illness: allergies, food sensitivities, improper diet, stress, yeast overgrowth, parasites, bacteria, viruses, and so on. Your practitioner has many precise tools at his command. He can determine many things about your condition with these techniques. Most practitioners would agree, however, that time and expense may limit the kinds of tests you may need. In addition, the standard array of tests may not reveal all the important information your practitioner needs in order to help you. Fortunately, your practitioner has IQS – a procedure that uses today’s advanced technology to evaluate your condition quickly and accurately, as well as suggest the ideal supportive therapy to help you get better fast. As you will discover, IQS provides extraordinary insights about the health of the body. It can help you and your practitioner find the right solution for many types of health problems and conditions What about nutrition? So many people do not quite know what they should be doing to correct their eating choices. With IQS, the practitioner can fine-tune a nutritional program specifically for the patient's needs. IQS reveals quite a lot. For instance there may be 5 varieties of Vitamin C. Which variety works best with the patient's biochemistry? If the patient is taking several supplements, IQS can test them to see if they're effective. If they're not, there's no need to take them because they won't benefit the patient in any way. What kind of practitioner uses IQS? IQS is marketed throughout the world, primarily to the health care practitioner. Chiropractors, medical doctors, osteopaths, naturopaths or homeopaths use IQS. An IQS analyst can operate under the license of a professional health care practitioner. Return to top Ion-Cleanse Heavy Metal Foot Bath   What is Ion Cleanse? An Ion Cleanse draws waste from the body though a unit placed in water with a positive and negative electric current. How does it work? It is similar to walking in the sand along the beach only more powerful because your feet are in direct contact with the ions being made in the water. What are the effects? Because of poor diet and high stress, we tend to accumulate and store excessive quantities of waste products. During a 30 minute session, the ions enter your body and begin to neutralize these tissue acid wastes. The process is called reverse osmosis. Why would I want to use the Ion Cleanse? Used in combination with regular colonics, this is an excellent way to enhance your cleansing progress. It may be possible to reduce pain and other symptoms caused by a lifetime of toxic buildup in the body. What else can I expect from an Ion Cleanse session? Many colors and objects appear in the water during Ion Cleanse sessions. There is a reaction between the toxins and particles in the water, the salt added to the water, the metals in the array, and the acidity or alkalinity of the person being bathed. All of these combine to produce color, whether or not feet are in the water. The basic color produced by these reactions varies from one geographic area to another. It is important to understand that the water will change color even if the unit is operating without feet in the water. The basic color change is a result of the reaction between all of the variables in the water and the array, as discussed above. This color change will vary in accordance with the toxic and chemical components of the water and air given a particular geographical area. The toxins in our bodies will look the same as the toxins predominant in a specific area; however, there will be more toxic particles in the water with feet in it. You will also find that water-based toxins will not stick to the side of the bucket and array, whereas substances pulled from the body will form a sticky ring that must be removed with a detergent. We have also found that a person's detoxification session will override the toxicity of the water. The following table shows what the colors in the water represent:
