What Is BRT? Body Restoration Technique (BRT) is a non-invasive method of locating and removing energy blockages. BRT uses the body reflex points, similar to acupressure points. BRT does not diagnose or treat disease or symptoms. It looks at symptoms ONLY to understand WHY the body is responding inappropriately. If the brain-body has intrinsic repair control functions then WHY is it that the body would malfunction at all? BRT helps locate body confusions and assists in the re-connection of its communication systems. Body Reflex Points Each organ, body part and gland has a different connection to the surface of the skin. These are called reflex points (which are relay switches). In this case the word reflex means relaying a response from a stimulus. If you put your hand on a hot stove, a reflex is sent from the brain to the hand muscles, which will quickly contract. Body point reflexes are similar in that they can be triggered or stimulated to send information to the part of the body OR if that part of the body has an energy block, it can send information to the superficial body reflex point, which can be tested through muscle testing. An analogy would be to getting your heart tested (EKG) from electrodes on the surface of the skin - you are assessing the heart via the skin points. The points can relay electrical information. Frequently Asked Questions About BRT: Can BRT treat my symptoms? BRT doesn't treat medical conditions. It doesn't even treat symptoms. BRT is unique in that symptoms (effects), which are merely the body's attempt to tell us something, should be first understood. What is the body trying to do when it's holding on to inflammation in a knee joint for 5 years? Why would the body continue to send inappropriate pain signals to an area in the body for more than 3 days? Why is the body keeping a muscle spasm in the shoulders while the person is in a relaxed state? BRT goes beyond the symptom It looks at areas of body confusion or energy blockages. Many people think that symptoms are NORMAL. This is absolutely not true. Symptoms are not normal and are ALL inappropriate unless in the acute stage of healing. For body repair to occur, the brain needs to be connected to each organ and gland. The nervous system needs to be communicating with the endocrine (hormone) system. As long as there is a proper flow of these communication systems, everything works fine. BRT looks at those barriers within its communication systems. How does BRT work? Fortunately the body has a built-in keypad and self-testing-type mechanism to assess the location of "lack of energy flows". The body is basically a living computer (computers within computers) composed of a multitude of electrical circuits, switches, resistors and fuses. It runs at a very specific temperature-98.6 degrees. Most these circuits in the body are set on automatic (involuntary). Each energy pathways link to the surface of the skin - body reflex points. They are very similar to acupuncture points. Acupressure points have been around for thousands of years. Like a computer, the body can be susceptible to viruses, interferences, overloads, blown fuses, shutdowns, frozen programs, and so forth. Information about the nature and cause of these energy alterations can be assessed through the nervous system. You can use these points as the keyboard to "tap into" the bio-computer to gain information. How does the body get energy blockages? The body can be damaged by chemicals, toxins, microbes, injury, bad eating habits, food chemicals, radiation, scars, stress or genetic weaknesses. All these things can leave confusion and energy blockages at different location. Toxicologist (doctors that study poisons) study what chemicals cause damage in different parts. For example; heavy metals can lodge in different tissues (like nerves) as compared to pesticides, which can lodge in other tissues (like the liver). We have found that the body does better WITHOUT chemicals and toxins. The surface receptors on the body are the links to the nervous system and brain. Just try touching a hot stove and you'll understand how the receptors work. Your finger tips are basically an extension of the brain. If these receptors get damaged in any way, the information that is supposed to be received by them can be altered. Have you ever said something to someone and they twisted what you said? BRT is a method of looking at the nervous system's interacting with body reflex points. Thus we can gain feedback from the body, which directs us toward the physical energy blockage cause of the problem. Once You Find The Problem, How Does BRT Correct It? BRT only uses the triggering (hands-on) of body reflex points as its correction. Sounds simple doesn't it. The next question is usually, "how can someone possibly do anything to improve body function by triggering body reflex points?" BRT borders on magic in its results. You just have to experience it to see for yourself. The best thing to demonstrate BRT on is Pain or Fatigue because it is something that can be perceived and rated as before and after - most people notice results within seconds after the correction. How long does it last? There are multiple parts to a health problem. Through the body's compensations and adaptation, BRT needs to strip the layers of the onion to take off one layer at a time. As each correction is done, more and more stability occurs. There is one thing you should know about health problems as a fact. If the correct cause is found and corrected, the problem goes away. If the wrong problem in identified and treated, things will stay the same or get worse. The nice part about BRT is its superior way of locating the correct energy blockage. How many visits does a person need? That varies from patient to patient. The first visit evaluation will help give an estimate on the number of visits. It could range from a dozen to several dozen and in some cases even more. Does my insurance cover it? Unfortunately BRT doesn't have an insurance code. It takes lots of testing and expense to get insurance codes. However we have found that most people would rather invest in something that is less invasive, more natural and is an alternative approach. About BRT And Body Shapes In BRT, we attempt to understand WHY a person holds on to weight in different places as compared to others. The question be asked, what imbalance is creating these distortions? Obesity is no doubt the number one problem Americans face today. The average person going to the book store or searching web sites trying to find correct answers usually is left with more confusion and further away from discovering the truth about losing weight. The first thing and most important thing to know about metabolism is that your weight problem is NOT the problem. It is a symptom or an effect of something else. The next thing you know someone will be starting "win the war against obesity". That would be the wrong target. You would get nowhere fast. Have you noticed that some people hold weight in the stomach and yet other carry weight in the hips and thighs and other people carry weight more evenly through the body? Why is this? In the BRT program, we use three powerful tools to help people - the BRT technique, diet and exercise. BRT and body shapes Let's first discuss diet. There is no way you can put EVERYONE on one diet and expect to get the maximum success. WHY? Because each type of weight case is different. And since weight is a symptom, would it not make more sense to design a diet program based on that person's imbalance internally? In our program, we use more of a tailor-made food plan to give the person maximum chance for improvement. For example; right now the high protein diet is very popular. However if you put someone with a liver weakness on this diet, they could feel worse because the liver can't not handle pure proteins, especially cooked. On the other hand if you recommend more carbohydrates to someone who has a glandular imbalance (diagnosed by a medical doctor), they could also be very unsuccessful. Each person needs to be evaluated individually for what he/she needs. A shot gun approach to losing weight will only lead to failure and lots of effort. The truth is it should not take lots of hard work and effort to lose weight IF you are getting to the right cause. In the BRT program, we take a different approach. We try to understand how your body is responding to food and why it's in slow mode. We want to know why you are carrying weight in one place versus another. We don't attack the fat or the weight directly but want to understand what your body is doing. What foods will support the underlying mechanism of your weight gain? Now what about exercise? There is a single common error people make when attempting to lose weight. In fact, this mistake has caused people to spend a tremendous amount of wasted time and effort all in vain. In our BRT program, we educate you on the two ways the body makes energy as it relates to weight loss. We want you to fully understand what FAT really is and the exact mechanics of how you burn fat versus sugar. Many people mistakenly burn sugar instead of fat. So instead of giving you another program, we give you a greater understanding of the principles of how the body works with regard to metabolism. Unless you understand this, you will be dependent on the next new diet fad. It's actually very simple. You will learn how to use exercise to your advantage to maximize weight loss. If you don't know these key principles, you could unfortunately spend lots of wasted effort with minimal results. Each individual should exercise according to their body type. |
