Understanding NAET®
Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Techniques
NAET® (Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Techniques) is an energy-based approach intended to support balance on physical and emotional levels.
Muscle Testing and Readiness
We use muscle testing as part of the NAET® process to assess readiness for that day’s session. We may postpone NAET® (and offer acupuncture instead) if you are extremely fatigued, very hungry, or experiencing heavy menstrual symptoms.
Before Your NAET® Session
-
Please read the NAET® Guidebook before beginning treatment. The Guidebook explains what to avoid and what is safe afterward.
-
Drink water, eat a light meal, and wash your hands before the session to avoid cross-contamination.
-
Avoid wearing perfumes, strongly scented lotions, or essential oils.
-
If you have a history of severe allergic reactions or anaphylaxis, please discuss this with Sachiko and your treating physician before beginning NAET®.
17 Basic Items as the Foundation
-
We begin with the 17 basic items as the foundation of NAET®, rather than focusing only on individual symptoms.
-
Some basic items require repeat sessions.
-
If you have strong IgE allergies (e.g., dairy), certain basic items may be skipped early on.
-
After a few sessions, we begin NAET®-specific emotional treatments when appropriate.
What Happens During NAET®
-
We treat one basic item per visit.
-
We use muscle testing to assess your body’s response while you hold the vial(s) in your hand, helping determine whether the treatment is needed.
-
While holding the vial(s), we stimulate key points along both sides of your spine.
-
You rest for 20 minutes afterward, and we usually do acupuncture or acupressure during this time.
-
For children or in some instances, we use surrogate treatments, and the children do not need to sit still for the resting period.
-
We re-check the treated item(s) before you leave.
After NAET®
-
Avoid heavy or strenuous activity or exercise for 6 hours.
-
You may feel tired after a session. If so, allow yourself time to rest.
-
Some items must be avoided for 25 hours — see the NAET® Guidebook.
-
You may receive acupressure homework, which is optional but recommended.
After the Basics
-
We can begin working on specific triggers (including items you bring with you) - these may include foods, supplements, medications, environmental samples, or anything that you feel triggers your symptoms.
-
Some people experience benefits right away, while others notice gradual improvement.
Support
-
Sachiko is available during business hours for brief questions and guidance.
