NAET is a breakthrough treatment that uses chiropractic, kinesiology, and acupuncture to permanently desensitize people to all kinds of allergies. The technique can be practiced by any health practitioner including doctors, nurses, acupuncturists, chiropractors, and dentists, to some extent, allergy sufferers themselves. Clinical studies with NAET have demonstrated that it is by far the most successful and succinct treatment for the elimination of allergies. The theory of NAET is based on viewing the body as made up of pathways for the flow of electromagnetic energy. It is easier to understand how and why NAET works if one understands the theories that underlie it.

The whole concept of the body as an energy field was not new to me when I learned NAET. As a chiropractic student, I was introduced to a philosophy that regards the body as more than just matter, muscles, and tissues coming together without any real intelligence. Chiropractic acknowledges that the body is a holistic complex and that universal or innate intelligences or organizing force that pervades the vast galaxies also pervades the simplest cells of the body. The founder of chiropractic, Dr. D. D. Palmer, talked about the concept of electromagnetic energy fields. He said the mind does not control the functions of the body. Instead, there is an innate intelligence that controls the mind and it's functions as well as the functions of the body. This innate intelligence has the power to conceive, judge, and reason about matters pertaining to the internal welfare of the body. The healing art of chiropractic has been around for more than one hundred years and has been successful at treating the body and appreciating it as more than just matter.

In chiropractic view, when a bone is out of alignment or the spine is distorted or misaligned, the energy force in the body is cut off, this, in turn, causes serious disease. When the misalignments or imbalances are corrected, the energy can flow again through the nervous system to the brain and homeostasis is restored.

The work of Dr. Devi Nambudripad is similarly based on the idea that the body is the flow of electromagnetic currents. According to her theory, when an allergen enters or contacts the body, there is a clash between energy field of the allergen and the energy field of the allergy sufferer. The brain identifies the allergen and alerts the immune system, which locates the allergen and responds with antibodies and delays reactive T and B cells. This type of immune reaction causes the release of toxic substances from the T cells. The fighter cells, called macrophages, and then invade the area, intent on digesting the antigens. Immune mediators such as histamines are released.
