Allergy Testing
What is Allergy Testing?
The testing method used is one of several capable of use within the
field of Bio-Electronic Regulatory Medicine (BER). This system is based
on the theory of utilising the acupuncture pressure points on the
fingers or toes to measure resistance in the body to substances the
client wishes to be tested for.
The machine used is the RM10S manufactured by the German Med-Tronic
Company. The RM10S is registered medical testing equipment under German and European law. This unit provides a method of non-invasive painless testing
with the scope to test as many substances as the tester has samples of.
The patient holds an electrode in one hand that is connected to the
testing unit and a probe is placed on an acupuncture pressure point on
a finger or toe on the opposite side of the body, thus placing the
patient in a circuit with the machine. Samples of the potential
allergen are placed in the diagnostic unit which will then indicate
whether there is any resistance from the patient to the substance in
question.
The basic allergy and intolerance test will give results on over 150 foods and 50 environmental substances plus a vitamin and mineral deficiency test. The
patient’s results are recorded by the tester, after which advice
as to how to eliminate the offending foods is given. In addition, if
deemed necessary, then appropriate supplementation will be
recommended.. Testers recommend a follow up appointment for a retest
after a period of between 4 and 12 weeks depending on the specific
results so that progress can be monitored. After 3 months on the
elimination programme the patient is advised on the safe
re-introduction of foods back into their diets.
