It's one of my tenets.<BR/><BR/>However, I'm pretty sure that if people do research on NAET they'll run screaming from it. Better before than after.<BR/><BR/>I do have to point out that whatever one thinks of acupuncture, the fact that another treatment uses it as its foundation means exactly nothing. The world is filled with junk pseudoscience and medical quackery that uses more legitimate notions as a foundation and then takes them into cloud-coocooland.<BR/><BR/>NAET is, in my opinion, quackery based on nothingness. I've added more opinions from the scientific literature to the post, part of my contribution to researching the subject.<BR/><BR/>My advice to everyone is to ignore NAET, unless somebody actually is so unwise as to propose using it.Steve Carperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04233930058408428963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939100.post-84036137997717516502008-12-04T18:20:00.000-05:002008-12-04T18:20:00.000-05:00Acupuncture itself has also been considered scient...Acupuncture itself has also been considered scientifically implausible in the West for a period of time, yet it works for millions of people and animals around the world, including people in the US. I mention animals because it takes the "placebo affect" theory out of it. NAET uses acupuncture as it's foundation. The fact that acupuncture works is not under contest any more in the scientific world. There is plenty of evidence to demonstrate it's effectiveness. The question has become "why does it work?". There is currently research going on to help explain in Western terms and scientific models how it works. Anyone who is interested in allergy elimination should consider NAET as an option. It doesn't work for everyone, but nothing out there in Western medicine or alternative medicine works 100% of the time in 100% of the cases. Acupuncture often has higher success rates then many of the Western alternatives. Don't let ignorance or fear make your decisions for you. In all cases, do research before you decide on a practitioner or a therapy so that you know you are getting a qualified person practicing something they are trained in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
