« HOW TO UNCOVER VISCERAL AND CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM TRAUMA. NEW IRT SHORTCUTS TO IMPROVE YOUR EVALUATION AND TREATMENT »
It’s difficult to find a single patient who has never had trauma. Since it’s integration into AK in 1990 by Dr Schmitt, IRT technique allows the AK practitioner to uncover and treat the memory of trauma located anywhere in the body. When a muscle is found to be inhibited because of a history of trauma somewhere in the body, it was proposed that different shortcuts could be used to precise if either the trauma is located on the right side of the body, the left side of the body or at the level of the head neck and coccyx. But what if the trauma is located into a viscera or into the brain? Can the usual shortcuts reveal this trauma? Is there a shortcut for this kind of trauma? And how to easily treat it?

Dr. Steve Gangemi DC, DIBAK, DCBCN
Biography :
I’m a doctor who uses various holistic methods to help a person recovering health. I have been trained in the fields of functional neurology, biochemistry, acupressure meridian therapies, applied kinesiology as well as dietary, exercise and lifestyle modification methods. If you could sum up in a few words what I do, the most apt definition would perhaps be “complementary medicine” or “holistic health care.” I don’t use the word “alternative” because to me, my family and for many of my patients, this type of health care is not alternative; it is the only one we follow. Conventional medicine is our alternative. It is there if/when we need it in times of crisis only.
