What to expect:
ELECTRODERMAL SCREENING
A screening session uses a process called Electrodermal Screening (EDS), also known as Meridian Stress Assessment (MSA). It’s non-invasive and painless.
Here’s how it works: a small metallic probe is applied to specific points on your hands and feet, areas with high electrical conductivity. A tiny amount of current (6-12 microamps, which is way too small to feel) passes through the skin. The device then records how your nervous system responds at those points. We use those readings to assess the functional, energetic status of your body based on acupuncture reference points. Think of it as a conversation with your nervous system.
Your first session runs about 90 to 120 minutes, depending on how many points we measure. Follow-up sessions are usually shorter, around 60 minutes, and most people do one to three of them.
*Nutritional supplements, homeopathic and other natural remedies are not included in the cost of the screening session.
FAQ
Diet & Exercise
What is the best diet?
But that being said, the Mediterranean diet and Whole30 are both solid starting points. The most common mistake I see with any diet: not enough vegetables and too much meat. More veggies, less meat, almost always.
I think certain foods are making me feel bad. How do I figure out which ones?
That’s actually something we can help identify through screening. A lot of food intolerance traces back to a weakened gut or leaky gut. Focus on rebuilding the GI tract first, and you might find foods you wrote off coming back on the table.
I have arthritis. Are there foods I should avoid?
What kind of exercise should I be doing?
Stretching. I can’t say it enough. Stretching helps the body release toxins and, when paired with movement, it genuinely reinvigorates the mind and body.
I feel too sick to exercise. What do I do?
Start with stretching, but if you are up for a bit more, add in steps. Most phones have a built-in step counter, all iPhones do. Just increase your daily steps gradually. Adrenal stress and other issues can make real exercise feel impossible, and that’s real. But as your health improves, your stamina comes back. When your body is struggling, small amounts of movement spread throughout the day will do more for you than one big push
