Meridian Stress Assessment

Your body is an active communicating organism, whether you can feel it or not. Your organs and systems are constantly taking in and giving out information to and from your surroundings. We literally absorb the world around us, and our energetic life force, or body intelligence, constantly monitors our situation and tries to keep us healthy. The problem is that the world we live in is full of things that are not good for us. There are toxins in the air we breathe, the things we touch, the food we eat, and the water we drink. These toxins number in the thousands and can significantly alter normal body function.

As a natural response, our bodies try to fight off and expel harmful toxins resulting in what we call sickness. This process reveals itself with various symptoms, such as fatigue, indigestion, headaches, joint pain, anxiety, depression, etc.

The way to better health is to help trigger our body’s natural defenses to rid itself of toxins and unhealthy substances.

Over thousands of years, Eastern Medicine has come to understand the body’s energy channels of communication. Acupuncture, acupressure, homeopathy, herbs, meditation, and chiropractic care are common ways to treat the body’s energy channels and restore more normal energy function and vitality.

By measuring electrical conductivity through 62 important communication points on the hands and feet, we can measure the level of toxic stress on the body’s organs and systems. The Bio-Meridian Stress Assessment computer program is designed to effectively and accurately obtain that information. By doing so, the licensed health care practitioner can choose the best plan of care for the patient.

The procedure is simple, painless, and sterile. Patients remove their shoes and socks. A measuring instrument is then applied with mild pressure to each of the 62 communicating points on the patient’s hands and feet. Readings show the level of energy flow as communicated by each area of the body and are then compared with optimum energy levels of organ and system health. The patented computer software generates a detailed report that indicates where the patient may need assistance to rid the body of toxins and restore a healthy energy balance.

To help your body trigger its natural immune system, the Peterson Wellness Center uses homeopathy with specific clinical nutritional support. This approach uses non-toxic substances to help quickly rid the body of harmful toxins. Continued use over time frees the body from toxins and enables it to handle them in the future, therefore improving the body's energy equilibrium. This creates a better state of health and well being.
