Some great reasons to try Nutrition Response Testing®

Initial visit

In a medical practice there are two key parts, the diagnosis (naming the disease or syndrome) and the treatment (drugs, surgery, etc.). We don’t do that here.  However, we too have two parts: helping you discover why your body is unhappy, and what it specifically needs to heal and repair itself, thereby making it happy again.  

By using your body's own muscle group in combination with acupressure points, we help you discover the underlying weaknesses and stressors in your body, and with this same approach, help you design your own personalized natural health improvement program.

This done through tapping into the body's neurological reflexes and acupressure points. The neurological reflexes are derived from the part of the nervous system whose job is to regulate the functions of each and every organ. The acupuncture points are selected from the ancient Chinese system of acupuncture, which is thousands of years old.

Nutrition Response Testing® is a study of how the different points on the surface of the body relate to the state of health and to the flow of energy in each organ and function of the body. Since human anatomy has not changed significantly in thousands of years, the utilization of these reflexes and specific points has become extremely useful in our office because they are so accurate.

How we get the information

If we were to hook up an EKG machine and take a reading, that would make perfect sense to you, right? What is happening during this procedure? Electrical energy from the heart is running over the wires. This electrical energy makes the EKG record the energy pattern in the form of a graph or chart. We could then study this graph and tell you what it all means. 

Instead of connecting electrodes to the specific points, the practitioner contacts these points with his/her own hand or your hand. With the other hand he/she will push on your extended arm.  If the reflex being contacted is active (“unhappy”), the nervous system will respond by reducing energy to the extended arm and the arm will weaken and drop. This drop tells you (and us) there is underlying stress or dysfunction in that area, which may be affecting your health.

The personalized health improvement program

Let’s say the liver or kidney reflexes are active.  Then what?

The next step is for you and us to determine the specific, highest-possible quality nutritional formulas against those weak areas, to find which ones bring the reflexes back to strength.  

Decades of experience tell us that when you have found the correct nutritional supplements and have worked out a highly personalized nutritional supplement schedule, you have identified the most important first step in correcting the underlying stress that caused the reflex to be active in the first place.  By following this as precisely as possible, you are well on your way to restoring normal function and improving your health.

It’s that simple!

Set your health free!

At each visit, we help you “check in” with your body to determine its progress and to find out what else may be needed to help it achieve optimal health.  Getting to the root of the matter is very much like a combination lock, you must use the right numbers in the right sequence and in the right direction at the right time, and then the lock opens!

You aren't guessing at your diet or supplements. With the Nutrition Response Testing® we help you determine the correct food supplements to give your body for the best possible chance of achieving and maintaining optimal health!

Many people we see at Healthy Out West have eaten themselves into their current state of ill health, to one degree or another. Nutritional deficiencies or imbalances lead to the breakdown in resistance or immunity and a loss of the ability to cope with environmental stresses, chemical, microscopic or otherwise. 

The right protocol

With the right protocol and knowing which foods to avoid, you can be on your way to a healthier you! It's important that in this journey, YOU are the one responsible for your own health! You can count on us to do everything in our ability to help you achieve your health objectives and help you get to a healthier, happier, and better quality of life.

The short story - Yes! Taking back your health is possible!

Your body is always trying to repair and heal itself, but it has barriers preventing that.

What are YOUR health barriers? 

We are bombarded with and exposed to all sorts of environmental challenges daily.  These can stop or slow down the healing process or even worse, they can send you in the wrong direction entirely.  Have you ever pumped gas and the fumes “got to you”?  Have you ever eaten something and then felt “off”?  Ever accidentally cut yourself or had surgery? 

These situations (and more) build up in your tissues and inhibit your body’s ability to function. The scars from a cut or surgery alone could be interfering with your body’s nervous system and blocking its ability to communicate and thus control vital functions.

We take a different approach as the goal is “Total Health Restoration.” Using Nutrition Response Testing® we help you precisely identify your body’s specific barriers and address each one in turn, starting with the primary block to your health and then intelligently tackling each barrier until you have restored your whole health. A good analogy of this process is the onion. The peeling away of the onion, the next layer.

There are thousands of books written about healing. However, none of those authors have ever met you! In the incredible sea of information, what applies directly to you? Our Advanced Clinical Nutrition Response Testing® practitioners can help you identify the exact barriers to your personal health problems. You don’t have to speculate or keep drowning in the ocean of “experts.” Your body will tell us what is wrong and what the solution is.

It’s a cop-out to think your lack of healing is genetic, personality or age. It may have some impact on your health but the factors you can control are far more important in bringing about Total Health Restoration. Our practitioners and the team at Healthy Out West's only purpose is to help you achieve it.
