What is an Allergy?
Sometimes it may seem like we should have been born with tissues under our noses. Believe it or not, millions of Canadians suffer from allergies of one type or another. What is interesting is that these allergies are not restricted to the common seasonal symptoms we normally associate with allergies. In fact, many people suffer from digestive disturbances, hormonal dysfunction, ADD/ADHD and other behavioral issues (see conditions treated for a more comprehensive list). It is our belief that any “symptom” or illness has the potential to have an allergic component attached to it.
People who have allergies react to substances that may be harmless to other people. Unfortunately, since most people don’t have immediate, violent reactions when exposed, it can be very difficult to identify the allergen. It is far more common to have less dramatic – even subtle – reactions that occur hours or even days after eating, breathing, being exposed to or touching an allergen. Some symptoms are so subtle and persistent that many people don’t even realize they are suffering from an allergy.
So, what really is an allergy? An allergy is nothing more than an imbalance created in the body when it incorrectly perceives a harmless substance to be threatening. In some cases this imbalance creates an immune system response (IgE allergy) that can be seen through blood testing. In most cases it cannot. We have found that many times a patient will experience adverse reactions (IgE allergy) to various substances yet these reactions DO NOT show up in conventional testing.
Our History
The founder, Dr. Robert Neposlan (or Dr. Rob as his patients so fondly call him) is a long-standing, well-respected health educator and chiropractic physician in his region. After completing his M.B.A. in 1987 and his Doctor of Chiropractic in 1996, Dr. Rob located his practice in Amherstburg, Ontario – 30 minutes from Windsor and the Detroit, Michigan border.
Since opening over 15 years ago, Dr. Rob has attended many post-graduate courses or seminars per year, with the goal to help his patients live longer, healthier lives and to educate as many people as possible about a ‘wellness’ lifestyle. To this end,
Dr. Rob studied a variety of techniques in the world of energy medicines aimed at defining a person’s allergies or intolerances and minimizing or eliminating them.
The BioEnergetic Sensitivity Testing System
According to Chinese medicine, a form of bodily energy called Chi is generated in the internal organs and circulates throughout the body forming paths called meridians. Chinese acupuncture theory further asserts that it is a stagnation or excess in energy that leads to all disease, including allergies.
Using this understanding, a German doctor named Reinhold Voll began to experiment with different instruments in an attempt to first access information from the body and secondly to influence the flow of energy through these meridians. Over the years, technology and understanding evolved into what we consider to be the hallmark of instruments used today, the Bio-Energetic Sensitivity Testing System (BEST).
This computerized testing system allows us to test for hundreds of potential allergies in a very short period of time. This valuable assessment tool is quick, painless
(No needles!) and provides a detailed printout of all allergens found, as well as, the degree of each allergy.
Our custom library of over 150 items represents an excellent profile of possible allergens that you as a patient will either eat, drink or be exposed to in your daily living. A report will be generated outlining your individual responses to these items. Based on this information, the exciting work of eliminating allergies (energetic imbalances) can begin!
Treating Allergies
The Allergy Wellness Centre developed a program to successfully eliminate allergies, in most cases permanently! Our technique is based on the theory that the central nervous system has the ability to attract, ignore or reject a substance’s electromagnetic force field. When the ability at attract a substance is functional, it accepts or approves the substance’s forces around this person in a positive way. This person will feel good and comfortable in the presence of that item. When an item is rejected by the nervous system, an energy imbalance occurs. This will affect the body’s energy systems (meridians) in a way that causes an adverse reaction toward that item and may cause a negative physical, physiological and/or emotional response within the body. Since everything in nature is ultimately mad of energy, and since we ourselves are energetic beings…it’s easy to then see how virtually anything in our environment has the potential to interfere or create imbalances/disturbance in our energy system.
Our painless method of removing allergies involves stimulating specific body points in the presence of an allergen. ‘Energy balancing’ is then performed by using acupressure on specific acupuncture points. This whole process takes fifteen to twenty minutes. On a follow-up visit, we retest the allergen to confirm that it has completely cleared. In approximately 85% of cases, our patients’ report no adverse reactions when next exposed to the item(s) treated.
Conditions Treated
As previously identified, an allergy is nothing more than the body reacting inappropriately to, in many cases, a harmless substance. Over the years we have treated thousands of patients who have often shared that in previous conventional medical testing that no allergies have been identified. Since conventional testing only targets IgE immune system reactions, this type of feedback is not uncommon. Our methods will identify all types of imbalances, including IgE reactions, sensitivities, intolerances and energetic disturbances/imbalances that are often contributing to unknown ‘allergy’ like symptoms and/or that may include but is not limited to things like sinusitis, congestion, hives, skin rashes, eczema, Psoriasis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, reflux, indigestion, colitis, Crohn’s, fibromyalgia, migraines, headaches, ADD/ADHD, autism, PMS, insomnia, back pain, depression, anxiety, etc. We’ve often said that rarely have we seen someone in our practice that has not benefited from our care. If you just don’t feel right, chances are there are some underlying “allergies” at play. We can help.
