BioEnergetic Assessment (BEA) utilizes a computer-based instrument, which measures the energetic patterns of each organ and system in the body through the acupuncture points on the hands and feet and gives indication of the degree of inflammation, degeneration or level of stress present. Once these energetic imbalances have been isolated, the BEA can then be used to assist your practitioner in the creation of an individual strategy for restoring an energetic balance to the body.
The BEA came to be through the extensive research of Reinhold Voll, MD a German medical doctor and acupuncturist. Voll became fascinated with the Chinese medical approach of treating patients. The Chinese physicians look at disease very differently than the way of typical “Western Medicine” as practiced in the United States. The Chinese view of diagnosis of disease revolves around the examination of proper energy flow throughout the body.
The Chinese call this energy flow, Qi’ (pronounced chi). The Chinese method of correcting and maintaining proper energy flow revolves around the art and science of Acupuncture. Dr. Voll’s life’s work centered on finding a way to measure and improves the flow of energy throughout the body without the use of needles.
After years of study and research, he developed a non-computerized device which allowed him to determine energy flow of the acupuncture meridians (the body’s electrical pathways). Dr. Voll also found and mapped out an additional 800 acupuncture points on the human body. During his 40 years of fastidious research, Dr. Voll’s work and this area of study were named Electro-acupuncture According to Voll or E.A.V. for short.
A BioEnergetic Assessment can detect whether you have any of the following toxins affecting your overall health: allergies, bacteria, candida, heavy metal toxicity, Lyme Disease, parasites and pesticides.
