What is BRT?

Body Restoration Technique (BRT) is a non-invasive method of locating and removing energy blockages in the body. Like acupuncture, BRT finds areas that have lost their ability to communicate properly with the rest of the body. This lack of communication leads to confusion and a lack of awareness of what is going wrong in the body. Our brain's autonomic regulatory system cannot restore balance because it is not even aware that a problem is occurring. For repair to occur, the brain needs to properly communicate with each cell, organ and gland of the body. The nervous system also needs to communicate effectively with the endocrine system.

As long as there is proper flow of communication within the body everything works fine. When things go wrong BRT can detect where these communication or energy blockages are occurring and restore balance back to the body's regulatory systems.

How Does BRT Work?

The body is basically a living computer. This computer is really a nested hierarchy of programs, each communicating with each other. If one subsystem breaks down, the others compensate but begin to lose optimal communication with that area of the body. This is how the rest of our body can go on functioning apparently normally for years while a cancer slowly grows undetected in another part of the body. Fortunately the body has a built-in diagnostic mechanism to assess where these communication problems or energy blockages are occurring.

We know from acupuncture that the energy pathways within the body are linked to specific areas on the surface of the skin. These body reflex points are very similar to traditional acupuncture points. Acupuncturists have known for thousands of years that the body's internal balance can be affected by stimulation of these areas with acupuncture or acupressure. BRT taps into our bio-computer from these points to gain information about our internal milieu.

Why Does The Body Get These Communication Breakdowns In the First Place?

Normally the body does an incredible job of maintaining balance and self-repair. However, the body's regulatory mechanisms can be thrown off or damaged by injury, toxic chemicals, drugs, microbes, heavy metals, pesticides, artificial hormones (like hormone replacement therapy or birth control pills), prolonged pain or stress and even poor eating habits. All these things can leave confusion and energy blockages at different locations in the body.

Once You Find A Problem, How Does BRT Correct It?

BRT uses the appropriate connection of active body reflexes along with a gentle tapping along the spine. This tapping distributes awareness throughout the body by utilizing the acupuncture "association points" along both sides of the spine. These points connect to all the organ and information systems of the body. When the body regains an appropriate awareness of the problem it is then able to re-regulate itself. When this happens, symptoms disappear.

How Many Visits Does a Person Need To Feel Better?

This varies from patient to patient. The longer a person has had a problem the longer the body has had to add layer upon layer of compensations over it. Some people will experience rapid improvement while for others it might seem painstakingly slow as the body methodically removes each compensation that has built up over the years. The first visit evaluation will help to give an estimate of the number of visits needed.

How Long Will Treatments Last?

Our goal at Healthy Alternatives is to approach long lasting relief and resolution within the existing set of deregulation in the body. This does not mean that miscommunication and deregulation cannot reoccur from future stressors as after all we are living beings. Even a healthy person with no complaints cannot be guaranteed permanent good health. However, after appropriate treatment our immune, endocrine and nervous systems will be functioning at much more optimal levels and will be able to resist deregulation to a much higher degree.
