‘The Neuro Emotional Technique® (NET) is a methodology used to normalize unresolved physical and/or behavioral patterns in the body. NET practitioners are trained to assist the body's healing process by identifying and balancing unresolved emotional influences—it's a mind-body approach’ (www.netmindbody.com). |
NET was developed 20 years ago by a chiropractor - Dr Scott Walker. Since then there have been numerous research studies conducted, which demonstrate the efficiency of NET in removing nervous system stress. This research has been conducted and sponsored by the ONE Research Foundation. NET uses the neuro-mechanisms of speech, general semantics, emotions, acupuncture and chiropractic principles, meridian laws, cutaneous reflex points and psychology principles to release recurrent patterns in the body. |
NET is based on compulsive (and repetitious) patterns that humans can sometimes display in certain situations. Emotions are a normal part of life. They do not cause a neurophysiological problem unless there is the ‘presence of a neurological or meridian deficit (which) can cause a physiopathological-related pattern in the body’. These patterns do not always resolve on their own, therefore, NET practitioners seek to normalise them by producing a physiological change (using a physical intervention) (www.netmindbody.com). NET does not treat emotions, nor is a form of psychotherapy. It addresses the mind-body connection by identifying ‘stuck’ or fixed emotions called Neuro Emotional Complexes (NEC). NET treats physiological dysfunction, not emotions. |
‘Before the discovery of neuropeptides (now known to carry emotion throughout the body), emotions were considered to be largely in the domain of psychology. Now emotions are also considered within the domain of acupuncturists, chiropractors, medical doctors and other vitalistic practitioners of the healing arts. NET is used by psychotherapists and health care practitioners of all disciplines in tandem with their other techniques to quickly enhance their patients' results’ (www.netmindbody.com). NECs are identified through muscle testing. The client is then taken back to the original time that this pattern took place by retriggering that emotional pattern in the body. Once this has been identified, the chiropractor (or other qualified NET practitioner) will physically correct the physiology associated with the original event. It is a quick and easy process that produces fantastic results. NET removes interference to the nervous system and enables individuals to become optimally healthy. Clients often report profound emotional changes and improvements in how they cope with situations that previously caused them stress. |
NET is used by chiropractors to adjust and correct vertebral subluxations (which can affect emotional states, biochemistry and structure). This reduces stress and helps the nervous system to function optimally. Often an NEC is present in recurrent problems (or subluxations). When the NEC is released the subluxation resolves, reducing stress in the whole body. |
