Q: How do I know if N.A.E.T (Allergy Treatments) are rite for me?
A:
If you would like to find out if N.A.E.T could help your condition, we highly recommend reading “Say Goodbye to Illness” by Devi S. Nambudripad, prior to your treatments. If you feel that you suffer from any allergic condition whether it be food, chemical, environmental or even emotional, N.A.E.T may help you.
Q: Is N.A.E.T covered by insurance?
A:
No, at the moment there are no insurance companies that will cover N.A.E.T. Super bills (itemized receipts) are available upon request.
Q: Do I really need to avoid allergens for a 25 hour period after my treatment?
A:
As mentioned in the guide book, some patients may go through the treatment more quickly than others but should still avoid the allergen for 25 hours if possible. In our experience, patients that observe the avoidance period receive the maximum benefit from the treatments.
Q: If I complete the N.A.E.T treatments, will I be free of my allergies?
A:
Most of our patients treated thus far by the N.A.E.T treatments, have experienced complete relief from the allergy symptoms to each individual item that they have been treated for. Most of our patients report that contact with previously troublesome foods or environmental allergies no longer cause adverse effects.
