Introducing NIS: Neurological Integration System
The Neurological Integration System (NIS) developed by Neurolink has been around for 20 years. It is a ground breaking approach to healthcare management used by practitioners around the globe.
WHAT IS NIS?
NIS bases its treatment methods on the neurophysiology principle that the brain governs optimum function of all body systems through its neurological pathways.
The brain is constantly receiving information from every facet of the body , and in turn sends back messages, many times per second. This means every cell, gland, organ, muscle, tendon etc in the body is constantly monitored via these pathways to the brain.
Pathways in the body may become disconnected at times (like a light in your house blowing a fuse), this effects the function of whatever is on that particular pathway.
This disconnection can be brought about when certain stresses to the body exceed our individual tolerances. These stresses can be physical, mental, emotional, chemical, nutritional or spiritual (anything that causes disharmony). Stress causes the pathway circuits to switch off, like a switchboard being overloaded.
The brain knows about the symptom patterns that occur as a result of stresses, however it no longer ‘knows’ about the pathways that represent the underlying causes.
HOW ARE COMPLAINTS ADDRESSED?
The NIS practitioner uses a set of treatment protocols to evaluate the neurological pathways and the facets of body function they represent. In simple terms, this system could be thought of like a check list that could be applied when servicing your car. These ‘checks’ evaluate all causal dysfunction that may have translated into symptoms.
NIS is unique. The practitioner is a facilitator in the feeding of data to and from the brain. To find out which areas of body function the brain is not fully controlling, a muscle test is used. A muscle test is a scientifically proven method of determining whether the brain is in ‘full communication’ with body function. The muscle test acts as a feedback indicator to determine functional confusion associated with any body system.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND NIS
In order for optimum function to be restored, the brain must acknowledge the pathway short circuit. To do this, a NIS practitioner works with a defined area of neuroanatomy called the Post Central Gyrus. This area acts as the receiving and dispatching centre of the brain. When touched, sensations are mediated via neural pathways directly associated with the post central gyrus. For example, if you close your eyes and have someone touch just one hair on your head, you would be able to tell them exactly where that occurred. The post central gyrus allows you to relate the sensation to its location. The same principle applies with NIS treatment. The post central gyrus knows or acknowledges the relationship between the anatomical contacts the practitioner is holding.
WHAT COMPLAINTS MAY BE HELPED BY NIS?
NIS practitioners are able to treat a spectrum of complaints:
Structural – spinal, muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints
physical – immune, digestive, respiratory, heart, chronic
Pathology – infections; viral, bacterial, fungal, protozoan
Neurological – trauma, ADD/ADHD
Hormonal - depression, fertility, female health
Emotional – anxiety, bi polar, PTSD
HOW ARE COMPLAINTS VIEWED WITH NIS?
Most treatment techniques are is some way or another only treating your symptoms and proving you with symptomatic relief. NIS is quite different as it addresses the real underlying causes to provide long-term sustainable results.
Eg: Asthma is a label indicating inflammation of the airways, causing respiratory difficulty. Rather then treat the inflammation itself which is a symptom only, NIS seeks to determine and address the issues that are causing the inflammation in the first place. The same principle applies to a myriad of complaints.
WHO CAN BE TREATED WITH NIS?
Because NIS is painless and very gentle, NIS is safe for anyone, new born babies, the frail and elderly, the disabled, pregnant women, people on medication including chemo and radiation.
