This is a non-invasive screening to identify energetic imbalances. It is also known as MSA, Meridian Stress Assessment, EDS Electro Dermal Screening, GSR Galvanic Skin Response. This is not a diagnostic test or considered a medical procedure, it cannot predict, diagnose or cure a disease. It is important to notify the practitioner if you have a pacemaker or history of seizure.

EAV, Electro Acupuncture according to Voll is an Energetic Assessment to identify energetic imbalances. Dr. Reinhard Voll developed this measuring tool in the 1940’s and it has been widely used in Germany, other parts of Europe, and its use is growing in the United States. Dr. Voll found that certain areas of the skin have a higher level of conductivity, and these are the acupuncture points. Behind these points are the body’s meridians or pathways, and also can be looked at as the body’s “energy” highway. There is a meridian for each organ and system in the body. What research has shown is that the amount of energy flowing through these points has a direct effect on one’s health.

One’s body can be bogged down energetically. We are always in contact with toxins, viruses, bacteria, heavy metals, parasites, and fungus. Stress is another major factor affecting our health. Our immune system works hard to protect us and typically is quite efficient at doing so. We fight off illness all the time. However, there are times the body tells us it’s having trouble keeping things in a balanced state. This can show up in different ways, such as asthma, eczema, gut issues, arthritic pain, food and environmental sensitivities. Energetic medicine is a way of tapping into, eavesdropping into the body to see if it out of balance, and if so, what resonates with the body to help it return to its natural state of health.

What takes place at the appointment?

The patient will hold a brass hand-mass that is hooked into the device. Vicki takes a probe that has a flat tip and applies it to an acupuncture point. The probe sends a tiny amount of electrical current through pathways (meridians) that are associated with different organs or systems of the body. The hand-mass that the patient holds helps pull a current through the body. Based on the speed, or the number that is delivered back to the device, helps to determine if from an energetic perspective, that system is stressed or balanced. The software that is built in to the system provides information to me, which will help me to determine which protocol will be best for you. This is a gentle process that sends a message to the body to do what it already knows how to do. Certain treatments will help to stimulate the immune system to target certain areas.
