Food Allergies & Substance Sensitivities

You may have come along knowing you wanted help with allergies or intolerances. Or you may have come to see me with other health problems. From the detailed questionnaire (which includes questions on lifestyle, health, eating preferences and a food diary) that you filled out before our appointment; there are good indications that you may have a problem with allergies or sensitivities.

Determining what the allergies are

It is possible for people to be reactive to a huge range of different substances – foods, prescription medicines, chemicals, pollens, dust, animals, metals (including surgical implants), even substances that naturally occur in your body.

But there are some substances that are more commonly reactive than others. By looking at your food diary and lifestyle, in combination with the pattern of symptoms, it’s usually possible to identify some likely suspects. Often it is the foods or substances most commonly eaten, or that you’re in contact with every day, that you’re reactive to.

The next step is using kinesiology (muscle testing) to see what each substance does to your energy flow. Sometimes a single muscle test is enough to show a sensitivity, and sometimes we need to test in several different ways to find what’s causing the problem.

Managing food allergies

The next step is to eliminate the foods, or avoid the substances, for a trial period to see what changes. I help you with strategies for how to avoid problem foods, alternatives that you can buy, and tasty, easy recipes for homemade substitutes. For example, there are many gluten free recipes in my “How to Enjoy Real Food” recipe e-book and 15 step plan.

Depending on how much you improve as a result, we can tell whether we’ve found the worst offenders, or whether we need to do some more testing.

Once you know what’s causing problems right now, we can develop further coping strategies.

What might stop you from healing

In some cases, you may have other physical problems that have arisen as a result of the food allergies, such as leaky gut or candida overgowth. If those are present, we can look at ways to help those heal. This may include supplements, or other treatments. When your digestive system has been repaired, other allergies may spontaneously come right.

How EFT can help

Some food allergies, such as gluten, are not correctable and may be with you for life. Other allergies can be treated. We can treat some together using a proven EFT protocol, and then you can continue treating yourself at home.

EFT can also help with the cravings you may get for foods that you are now trying to avoid. You may also have feelings such as grief or anger about being in this situation, which EFT is great at relieving.

Other Allergy Treatments

Allergies can also be treated with Kinergetics, a specialist type of kinesiology. Here's how one person felt after a Kinergetics Sensitivity balance:

"I feel really good, haven't used any nose spray, tablets etc... for the last 4 days. I didn't notice much of a difference Thursday, Friday last week. Then on Saturday felt like my nose was drying out and very clear, also no sneezing fits. Years ago I used to have injections to treat my allergies , I remember that a couple of days after having the injection I would start to fell like a different person, I have the same feeling now. Thank you so much for your help. It's been a great experience and I will be spreading the word on Kinergetics."
