ARPwave Step 1: In-Balance

Whether we are eliminating chronic pain or dramatically speeding up recovery from injuries and surgery, the process is as simple as one, two, three. The first phase in the progression is called In-Balance.

Developed by Dr. John Pietila (Dr. J), this technique combines Applied Kinesiology with advanced Neurology to lay the foundation for the healing that will take place in the next two phases. This foundation comes in the form of restoring the body's ability to absorb force.

When the nervous system is activating the muscles properly, the muscles absorb the force that enters the body and everything works as it should. When the nervous system does not turn the muscles on properly, then force gets diverted into other areas like tendons, ligaments, cartilage, vertebral discs, etc. that cannot handle it. Force entering these other areas is the CAUSE of pain and injury.

Application of In-Balance allows us to find where in the nervous system that signal is being obstructed and get rid of that block. The process is similar to opening a highway with lanes blocked off for construction -- the In-Balance therapies open up those additional lanes of traffic, so that more information can be sent to the muscles.

With the appropriate neurological signal reaching the muscles, they can turn on and keep force away from the injured area. At this point we have laid the foundation for healing, and are ready to move on to step two.

If you are curious to learn more about In-Balance, one great resource is the In-Balance Discussion Board. Dr. J has added a lot of great information, and he may respond to your question if you post it.
