Sensitivities are the result of your immune system’s response to a substance. These can cause sensitivity or intolerance to certain substances. After coming into contact with a substance the body can not tolerate, there is an exaggerated response as the body attempts to eliminate it.

Using the principles of acupuncture medical and dental physician German Helmut Schimmel devised a machine of testing the body’s resistance to foods in addition to checking vitamins and mineral shortages, and food sensitivities in the body back in 1984.
The system is know as Bio-Electronic Regulatory Medicine (BER). Works on the theory of utilising the acupuncture pressure points on the fingers to measure resistance in the body to substances (foods, airborne, drinks etc), which can be the route cause of problems in every day life.
Manufactured by German Med-tronic the machine used is the RM10S. During 20 years of practise 3 month old babies to three 92 year old grandmothers have been tested.Procedure:
1. By placing samples of various substances (foods, airborne, drinks, etc) one by one into a special container (honeycomb) connected to the machine, practitioner can determine if the patient has sensitivity to the substance tested.
2. Electrode is held in one hand connected to the machine. The probe is then placed on an acupuncture pressure point opposite side of the body this creates a circuit with the machine.
