Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) is a mind-body technique that uses a
methodology of finding and removing neurological imbalances related to the
physiology of unresolved stress patterns. These patterns are called Neuro
Emotional Complexes (NECs).
Emotional responses are naturally "hard wired" in the body. A stimulus
happens, we respond, and then the body should return to normal. Occasionally,
however, emotional trauma in the presence of a neurological or meridian
deficit can cause a physio-pathological pattern in the body or a NEC that does
not resolve itself. NET seeks to normalize this pattern by a physiological
change; a result of a physical intervention that is made through cutaneous or
spinal accesses to the nervous system.
The effect of emotions on health is well documented in scientific literature
and for over 100 years, Chiropractors (since 1895) have attributed emotions to
being one of the three causes of a misaligned vertebra (a vertebral
subluxation). NET was developed in 1988 to treat vertebra that
misaligned/subluxated in an acquired reflex to unresolved emotional triggers.
NET is an interactive process that requires the patient's participation. The
Chiropractor is merely a facilitator. The NET process establishes the stuck
(unresolved) emotion relating to an original event or experience, by
determining weakness in the patient's acupuncture meridian system and the
body's response to particular words. Needles are NOT used.
To release the unresolved emotion, the Chiropractor will contact, or ask the
patient to contact, particular body points while he/she pictures the original
event or experience.
NET does not deal with "REALITY" but with "EMOTIONAL REALITY (perceived
reality)". Any conceivable life experience may be the subject of an unresolved
emotion. Such experiences may include but are not limited to those appearing
at the top of the next page. NET does not predict the future, and it
does not tell people what their plan or action may be for the future.
NET is a highly-specialized technique requiring significant training. It is
used by healthcare practitioners from many disciplines.
It is not psychology or psychiatry, and it does not involve any type of
psychotherapy or "talk it out" therapy.
If there is a psychological aspect present, this should be addressed by an
appropriate healthcare professional, such as a psychologist, psychiatrist,
etc.
Dr. Osborne is a Level III Certified NET Practitioner. Dr. Sasha Tran & Dr. Lio Hwangbo are both Level II Certified NET Practitioners. Dr. Emily Meyer practices NET as well.
