| Q: |
What is Neural Therapy? |
| A: |
Neural
Therapy is a gentle injection technique used to heal the autonomic
nervous system. It involves treating autonomic ganglia, peripheral
nerves, scars, glands, acupuncture points, trigger points and other
tissues to achieve the reversal of illness. It can be especially
effective in the treatment of chronic pain. |

|
| Q: |
What is the Autonomic Nervous System? |
| A: |
The
Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) is the part of the nervous system that
controls functions such as blood flow, heart rate, organ function,
digestion, the immune system and healing, etc. |
| |
|
| Q: |
What is Autonomic Response Testing? |
| A: |
Autonomic
Response Testing is a system of evaluation and treatment
developed by Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, Ph.D, and Louisa Williams, DC,
ND. Autonomic Response Testing uses muscle testing through biofeedback of the Autonomic
Nervous System (ANS) to determine disturbances and potential remedies. Autonomic Response Testing is a Functional Assessment used by the Holistic/ Integrative
Doctor, to determine bodily function (or dysfunction),
not specific diseases. Dr. Klinghardt blended the muscle testing of
American Applied Kinesiology with the understanding of the anatomy and
physiology of German Neural Therapy to develop Autonomic Response Testing. The result is a
highly structured and sophisticated muscle testing biofeedback system
designed to give reliable and reproducible results. A medical
assessment tool (like Autonomic Response Testing) that records generalized and localized ANS
disturbance can be helpful in determining the root causes of health
disturbances. Autonomic Response Testing grew out of the
importance of detecting and correcting problems of the autonomic
nervous system. Autonomic Response Testing allows the doctor to correct the problems of the
ANS and to help restore the self regulating mechanism of the body,
allowing the patient to return to a state of health. |

|
| Q: |
How is Autonomic Response Testing different from other types of muscle testing? |
| A: |
Autonomic Response Testing is different from other forms of muscle testing in that it uses the
latest findings of quantum and biophotonic physics to aid in the
assessment of the body. This allows for a much deeper level of testing
not available before to traditional kinesiologists. Tools such as a
polarization filter and signal enhancers are used to get stronger,
clearer feedback from the body. Autonomic Response Testing often finds things that are missed
with traditional kinesiology. Autonomic Response Testing practitioners in general also have
the ability to test for a wider variety of root causes of illness,
including specific infections, toxins, and emotional disturbances. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Can Autonomic Response Testing diagnose diseases? |
| A: |
Autonomic Response Testing is used along with traditional tests to determine the root causes of illness. It is not used to diagnose diseases. |
| |
|
| Q: |
How accurate is Autonomic Response Testing testing? |
| A: |
Autonomic Response Testing has been shown to be the most accurate of all kinesiology techniques,
with the best reproducibility and inter-examiner reliability. |
| |
|
| Q: |
What is KMT? |
| A: |
Klinghardt
Matrix Therapy (KMT) uses micro-current, infrared and laser technology,
color therapy and energy psychology to achieve microbial inhibition,
lymph drainage, detoxification and emotional balancing. |
| |
|
| Q: |
What is MFT? |
| A: |
MFT
stands for Mental Field Therapy. It is a combination of the works of
Scott Walker DC's NET, Gary Craig's EFT, acupuncture and other
emotional release techniques. In MFT, psychological traumas that are
preventing a patient's physical health are explored, and gently released
through a series of specific tapping points and healing statements made
by the patient. It is an elegant and effective means of helping people
clear emotional issues. |
| |
|
| Q: |
What is APN? |
| A: |
APN
(Applied Psychoneurobiology) uses a combination of Autonomic Response Testing testing and MFT
to get to deeper levels of emotional work. The Autonomic Response Testing helps the
practitioner "ask the body" to find the emotional issues that may not
be known by the conscious mind. Autonomic Response Testing testing allows for specificity of
the emotions most needing help. Then MFT and color therapy can be used
to facilitate deep healing. |
| |
|
| Q: |
What are the nine points in MFT? |
| A: |
(You
may consider using the diagrams found in the manuals).
The sequence of 9 points, when tapped, influences all of the 14 major
meridian lines. It is an easy way to help the body deal with stressful
situations (like exposure to allergens, or emotional stress), help with
the uptake of nutrients, and do a general clearing of the energy field
of the body.
The points should be tapped using both hands and all 10 fingers, as
there are important meridians on the finger tips. The points can be
tapped 9 times, in a gentle waltz rhythm. Tapping should be solid, not
too soft or too hard. Humming while tapping the points helps add the
the healing effect.

| Q: |
Is it possible to do Neural Therapy without using injections/needles? |
| A: |
Yes. Neural therapy can be accomplished with cold laser, microcurrent and energetic forms of chiropractic. |
