01 · The nerves

Twelve cranial nerves. I test two or three.

You can do the test or you can't.

There are twelve cranial nerves. I don't test all twelve on your first visit. I pick two or three, and I pair them with the six neurological tests.

Cranial nerve one is the nerve behind your sense of smell. You smell a vial of cinnamon while you're in the position that hurts. If the muscle test changes, cranial nerve one is in the mix.

Cranial nerves three, four and six run your eyes. I watch how they track: up and down, sideways, diagonal. When the tracking blips, I can see it, and so can you. That's brain stress.

It's not rocket science. These are real neurological tests you're doing right in front of me, and you're doing them in front of yourself. You can do the test or you can't. The testing doesn't lie.

02 · The treatment

The treatment is cranial work and NET.

Very few practitioners are trained in both.

Once we know which nerve is dim, we treat it. The treatment is cranial work and Neuro Emotional Technique, NET, plus chiropractic.

I'm more of an electrician than a mechanic. I find the circuits that are open, and we close them. That grounds the body. These treatments are brain resets, like how you reset a computer.

The chiropractic adjustment comes way, way last. When the stressors are off, you need to adjust less, and then you know what the real problem is. The more input I put into your body, the more confusion. So the adjustment is laser specific.

Cranial plus NET. Very few practitioners are trained in both. My mentors are in LA. I've been doing this for 25 years, and I'm still very fast at it.

03 · The retest

Then I test the same nerve again.

From dim to light. After one visit.

After the treatment, I test the cranial nerve that was dimmed. Now it's strong. That's how I know it's firing better. It goes from dim to light: firing correctly, with power, instead of a weak signal.

Then the six tests again. You could not do this, and now you can.

I don't care why it was misfiring. There are a million reasons it could be. I care that right now I can tell it's misfiring, because you can't do this test, and after treatment you can.

That's what I mean by out of the fog. We find exactly where the stress is in the brain and cranial nerves, and we reset it. Better sleep, less pain, sharper focus, and, most importantly, more JOY.

Come do the tests.

The best way to reach me is by email. I read these myself.

Email neuronetchiro@gmail.com and tell me what has been going on and the best way to reach you. Every visit starts with the neurological tests; the method comes after. How a visit works.
