This understanding has emerged amongst the great physicists of the last century and was first described at Columbia University. Later physicists like Ulrich Warnke, PhD and Fritz-Albert Popp, PhD in Germany have greatly contributed to this field.
The first person to bring this understanding in a practical way into modern medicine was Reinhold Voll, MD, the wonderful genius who invented electro-dermal screening (EAV or EDS). It has been used extensively without a clear understanding by many schools of thought in alternative medicine, including Applied Kinesiology.
It is the sole accomplishment of Yoshiaki Omura, MD of New York to bring the application of this phenomenon in its pure form back into modern autonomic response testing. Omura holds a US patent on his particular way of using the phenomenon. It has been researched extensively at several Japanese universities. The research is published in the peer-reviewed journal: International Journal of Acupuncture and Electrotherapeutics Research (published by Thieme in New York). Omura has named this phenomenon in his writing "resonance phenomenon between identical substances".
ART Definition: When a substance is placed over an area of the body which contains this identical substance, a stress signal is elicited which makes a strong indicator muscle go weak.
This simple phenomenon allows us to do two incredible things:
-
We can find things in the body that are not visible with the naked eye. We can "scan" the body with a biopsy slide of a tumor for the presence of this identical tumor in the body. We can use a particular toxin in a vial and scan the body for its presence. By using different concentrations of a toxin we can even assess, how concentrated this particular toxin is in the body. We may also use microbial cultures to detect the presence of particular microbes inside the body- non-invasively. Today, also fMRI technology is being developed that uses the same resonance phenomenon to accomplish the same objective (functional MRI).
We can detect if a medication or nutrient reaches the target organ. It has been found that many times a particular nutrient or medication does not appear in the target area (i.e. an infected tooth or a diseased heart) in concentrations high enough to achieve the therapeutic benefit. With direct resonance we can scan the body over this area with the identical substance and find out if it is present there or not. Often we find that it is not. Something is blocking or preventing the "drug uptake". In this case, we search for the reason.
Here is a list of common offenders:
-
Jewelry
-
Sleeping in a geopathically disturbed bed
-
Scars
-
Belt buckles
-
Bio-incompatible dentures and "regular" restorative dental materials
-
Poor occlusion
-
Eating allergenic non-compatible foods
-
Clothing (materials, dyes, electromagnetic properties, toxins)
-
Tags inside clothing (especially in the neck area)
-
Laundry soap residues
-
Cosmetics
-
Glasses and contact lenses
-
Negative synergistic effects between medications
-
Negative attitudes about this particular medication or about healing from this condition
This medication appears in the area immediately (if it has been taken at a reasonable time before), as soon as the offending item has been removed.
Omura found a way to not only allow the medication to enter the symptomatic area, but to also concentrate it above other tissue levels in the area. He developed a hand and body acupressure technique to do this which is proprietary. We use Mental Field Therapy (tapping) to accomplish the same goal with excellent results. This technique is called "DUET" (drug uptake enhancement technique).
The test is simple: Find the concentration of the diluted substance (for example an antibiotic or a chemotherapeutic cancer agent) that resonates over general body areas such as the abdomen or the thigh. Then, use the same vial over the symptomatic area.
Often there will be no resonance, indicating that the substance is not taken up at significant concentration in this area. The DUET technique constitutes the core of ART II.
The direct resonance test (DR) is used primarily for:
-
Intracellular toxins (metals, carcinogens etc.)
-
Intra- and extracellular bacteria, molds and yeasts, parasites (Chlamydia, Borrelia, gonorrhea, aspergillus, giardia,etc.)
-
All viruses. We use the MIC EPA/DHA as a general virus test before making a specific diagnosis (oils stabilize cell-membranes and inhibit viral replication). We always test the 6 common herpes types:
-
Herpes simplex type 1,2 and 6
-
Zoster
-
EBV (mononucleosis), CMV
-
And also coxsackie, influenza, rotavirus
-
Cancer risk factor (all from MIC):
-
Integrin alpha 5, beta 1
-
Acetylcholine levels
-
Oncogene c-fos AB2
-
5. Neurotransmitter levels
-
Acetylcholine
-
Dopamine
-
Serotonin
-
Nor epinephrine, etc
-
Amino acid levels (esp. in brain)
-
Borrelia Burgdorferi and co-infections: (slides)
Treatment: the direct resonance test will cause a weak indicator muscle if the diagnosis is correct. Against this weakness, we 2-point treatment by placing the tested medication on the SE. The effective medication will negate the weakness."
There are many applications of Autonomic Response Testing, including dental testing and the jaw, hormone balancing, allergy testing and food allergy elimination, detoxing from drug residues, testing for and eliminating neurotoxins, determining and treating for microorganisms and stealth pathogens, eliminating infections, determining and treating underlying psycho-emotional issues and more.
In 2010, ART I will be offered in San Jose, CA February 6-7, and in New York City March 26-28, 2010. ART II will be offered in New York City April 30-May 3. ART III will be offered in Seattle later in the year.
