The History & Credibility of a Modern Wellness Tool:

While the technology is cutting-edge, the principles behind bioenergetic testing have a rich history. The methodology, often called Electroacupuncture According to Voll (EAV) or Electrodermal Screening (EDS), was developed in the 1950s by Dr. Reinhold Voll, a German physician and engineer. Dr. Voll discovered that the acupuncture points described in ancient Chinese medicine have different electrical properties than the surrounding skin. He dedicated his life to developing a system that could measure these properties, believing they could provide profound insights into the functional health of the body's organs and systems. Today's computerized devices are the modern evolution of his pioneering work, combining thousands of years of holistic wisdom with the precision of modern technology.

How It Works:

A Conversation with Your Body's Energy

At its core, bioenergetic testing is a non-invasive method used to assess the energetic state of your body. The process is simple and painless. You will hold a brass conductor in one hand while our practitioner gently touches a probe to specific acupuncture points on your other hand and/or feet.  

This completes a low-level electrical circuit, allowing the AEV device to send a tiny, imperceptible signal through the body's meridian pathways. The device then measures the electrical resistance at each point. The readings are displayed on a computerized scale, typically from 0 to 100.  

​

• A reading in the "balanced" range (generally 45-55) suggests the organ or system associated with that meridian is functioning well energetically.  

• A higher reading (e.g., above 65) can indicate energetic stress or inflammation in that system.  

• A lower reading (e.g., below 45) may point to energetic fatigue, weakness, or degeneration in that system.  ​

​

By testing a series of these points, we can build a comprehensive picture of your body's energetic health, revealing patterns of stress and imbalance that may be contributing to your symptoms.

​

What Your Scan Can Uncover:

A bioenergetic scan provides a wealth of personalized information that can form the basis of a targeted wellness plan. It is designed to move beyond symptoms to identify underlying stressors. Your detailed report can provide insights into:

• The Functional Status of Your Organs and Glands: Identify which systems are energetically balanced, stressed, or weakened.  

• Nutritional Deficiencies: Pinpoint specific needs for vitamins, minerals, amino acids, or enzymes that your body may be lacking.  

• Food and Environmental Sensitivities: Test your body's energetic response to hundreds of common foods, pollens, and other environmental triggers to identify potential sources of inflammation.  

• Hidden Toxic Load: Assess the energetic impact of toxins like heavy metals, chemicals, pesticides, mold, and pathogens (such as viruses or bacteria) on your system.  

• Hormonal and Emotional Patterns: Gain insight into energetic imbalances related to hormonal systems and the body's response to emotional stress.  

This detailed information allows us to "take the guesswork out" and create a truly personalized roadmap to support your body's natural healing abilities.

What To Expect:

We understand that trying a new wellness modality can bring up questions. Our goal is to make your experience with bioenergetic testing as comfortable as possible. Here is a step-by-step guide to your bio energetic session.

​

Preparing for Your Session:

To ensure the most accurate results, we ask that you follow a few simple steps before your appointment:

• Stay Hydrated: Please drink plenty of water on the day of your scan. Good hydration helps ensure clear energetic conductivity.  

• Avoid Lotions: Please do not apply any lotions, creams, or oils to your hands or feet on the day of your test, as they can interfere with the readings.  

• Remove Metal: You will be asked to remove any metal jewelry, watches, or keys from your person during the scan.

•  (Optional): Bring any of the current supplements you are taking to be tested.

​

The in Person Experience:

Your in-person assessment is a relaxing and informative process that typically lasts between 1 hour to 1 hour and 30 minutes.  

1. Consultation: We'll begin by discussing your health history, your current concerns, and your wellness goals.

2. The Scan: You will be seated comfortably and asked to hold a smooth brass conductor in one hand. Our practitioner will then use a pen-like probe to gently touch specific points on your fingers and toes. The entire process is completely painless and non-invasive—there are no needles, and you will not feel the electrical current.  

3. Real-Time Insights: You can watch on the computer screen as the readings for each point are recorded, giving you a real-time window into your body's energetic responses.

​

After the Scan:

The true value of bioenergetic testing lies not just in the data it provides, but in the personalized plan it helps create. A key part of the process involves what is known as "remedy testing". Once an imbalanced point is identified, we can introduce the energetic signatures of various remedies—such as homeopathic solutions, herbal formulas, or nutritional supplements—into the circuit. The device measures whether a specific remedy brings the reading back into the balanced range.  

This process is a profound differentiator. For many who have struggled with a "supplement graveyard" of products that didn't work, this removes the trial-and-error. It moves the service from being purely informational ("Here is what's imbalanced") to being precisely prescriptive ("Here is the exact support your body is asking for to restore balance"). Based on these results, we will provide you with a comprehensive report and a personalized wellness protocol tailored to your body's specific needs, empowering you with a clear and targeted path forward.
