THE BIG IDEA BEHIND CELLULAR REGENERATION (CRT)TM

The theory behind this technique is that the brain is a computer. If you are functioning 100%, there is a constant feedback from the brain to all the body parts and organs. But if there is trauma, whether it is physical, emotional/mental, chemical, or spiritual, the optimum feedback gets messed up. By muscle testing, we can figure out the specifics (who, what, when, where and why) of the dysfunction/blockage/short circuit, then reconnect the brain to the body parts, so the body can heal itself. Total Body Modification (TBM) is a type of chiropractic technique, born out of Applied Kinesiology by Dr. Victor Frank, D.C. about 30 years ago. TBM is where my muscle testing career began. God led me to name this healing work CRT in 1998 when I realized that the variety of techniques I utilize enables the body to regenerate from the cellular level on up.

Remember, the living body is a self-healing mechanism. If you don’t believe this, cut your finger and the finger of a cadaver. Who will heal? Healing occurs from the inside out. Within chiropractic, we call this Innate Intelligence. What governs this life force is the body’s master system, the nervous system. This is why it is so important to be free of nerve interference in order to have optimum health. We now know that even the immune system is governed by the nervous system.

Through research done by those, such as Dr. Candace Pert, neurobiologist and former chief of brain chemistry at the National Institute of Mental Health, we know that each cell has its own memory capable of communication through neuropeptides produced by nerve cells in the brain. The neuropeptides serve as the communicating connectors of the nervous system and all the body parts. Dr. Pert writes in The Wisdom of the Receptors: Neuropeptides, the Emotions, and BodyMind, “The more we know about neuropeptides, the harder it is to think in the traditional terms of a mind and a body. It makes more and more sense to speak of a single integrated entity, a body-mind”. She used to believe that emotions were in the head/brain, but as a result of her research, she knows that emotions are also expressed in the body as well. Each cell has the capability of storing emotions.

Although the research to support the above idea is fairly new, the idea itself is not new. For thousands of years in Oriental Medicine, they have known that certain emotions are most likely expressed in certain organs. Some examples: anger is expressed in the liver, miffed in the bladder, grief in the lungs, low self-esteem in the spleen, and disgust in the stomach.

Many examples of the cellular memories from heart transplant recipients are given in Dr. Paul Pearsall’s The Heart Code. The memories of these organ recipients turn out to be the memories of the heart donors. Dr. Pearsall states, “Cardioenergetic healing is based on this old but increasingly research-supported idea that “dis-ease” is a perturbation of the info-energetic system composed of the brain, the heart, and the 75 trillion cells in the body.”

Dr. Herbert Weiner, author of Psychobiology, introduced the role of cellular memories in healing more that 30 years ago. He proposed the idea that disease is a breakdown of communication with and between cells, leading to an abnormal regulation of bodily functions and behavior. Many psychologists and psychiatrists now feel that most illnesses/diseases have a mental/emotional basis for them.

Daniel Goleman, author of "Social Intelligence: The New Science of Human Relationships," wrote an essay on 10-10-06, "Friends for Life: An Emerging Biology of Emotional Healing." Research found a widely dispersed class of brain cells called "mirror neurons" that "track the emotional flow, movement and even intentions of the person we are with, and replicate this sensed state in our own brain by stirring in our brain the same areas active in the other person. Mirror neurons offer a neural mechanism that explains emotional contagion, the tendency of one person to catch the feelings of another, particularly if strongly expressed. These brain cells seem to allow the interpersonal orchestration of shifts in physiology." "John T. Cacioppo, director of the Center for Cognitive and Social Neuroscience at the University of Chicago, makes a parallel proposal: the emotional status of our main relationships has a significant impact on our overall pattern of cardiovascular and neuroendocrine activity. This radically expands the scope of biology and neuroscience from focusing on a single body or brain to looking at the interplay between two at a time. In short, my hostility bumps up your blood pressure, your nurturing love lowers mine. Potentially, we are each other's biological enemies or allies."

One can interpret the above to mean that the more conscious we become, our vibrational frequencies will be higher, the more positive influence our mirror neurons will be to those around us. Research has shown that people who have loved ones around them go through traumas and illnesses better and are more likely to recover than those without loved ones' support. Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of "Love, Medicine, and Miracles" learned that some people were able to transform their lives and become disease free. In the same way, mind-body therapies have evolved from the study of mental processes of those who have dissolved trauma, changed behavior or who have completely recovered from difficulties.

In "Clinical and Research News," 3-2-01, "Brain Science Gets in Touch with the Unconscious," Philip Wong, PhD, and Howard Shevrin, PhD, conducted an experiment measuring brain waves of subjects exposed to a face accompanied by a mild finger shock. They were conditioned to associate the face with something unpleasant. Their brain wave patterns were recorded before, during, and after the shock. It does not say how long, but some time later, the subjects were quickly exposed to the face without a shock - so quickly that they were not consciously aware of seeing the face. The brain waves were measured again and found evidence of unconscious anticipation that a shock would probably be delivered along with the face, even though they did not consciously see the face. Wong said, "It does seem like, if there is an event that happened in the past, and a similar circumstance occurs in the present, then the brain is anticipating that the same kind of thing will happen that happened in the past."

I feel healing modalities such as CRT neutralize the unconscious anticipation, the cellular memory, so the same brain response doesn't happen. However, we don't know this as fact until research happens. As an example, if you have a 3rd car accident, your body triggers the cellular memories (physical and emotional/mental) from the 1st and 2nd car accidents. So, it gives us the opportunity to heal all of the effects, current and past. This is why I like to find the original time or event, if there is one.

In "Thoughts Can Heal Your Body" by Robert Moss, he says "our thoughts can make us sick, and they can help us get well. Dr. Herbert Benson, founder of the Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital says "People have been seeking healing through prayer and intention since Paleolithic times." Larry Dossey, M.D. says "The body responds to mental input as if it were physically real. Images create bodily changes - just as if the experience were really happening. For example, if you imagine yourself lying on a beach in the sun, you become relaxed, your peripheral blood vessels dilate, and your hands become warm, as in the real thing." Moss states "Similarly, under clinical hypnosis, someone who is told he is being touched by a red-hot object often will produce a burn blister, even though the object touching him was at room temperature." Sports psychologists have discovered that the brain "lights up" the same whether the athlete performs the actual event or just visualizes performing it. "There is ample evidence that negative thoughts and feelings can be harmful to the body," says Lorenzo Cohen, director of the Integrative Medicine Program at the J.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. We already know that stress is a known factor in heart disease, headaches, asthma and many illnesses. We know the mind is powerful, so let's use it to our benefit.

According to www.donnabird.com, the unconscious mind is some times referred to as the "old brain," and is concerned with survival, self-preservation, and constantly questions "is it safe"? It is also known as the reptilian brain. The subconscious is known as the mammalian brain, or light dream-like state. Conscious is when we're awake. Bird writes that to the old brain, "all threats are life threatening. Even the slightest frown could be interpreted as a total rejection. Because the conscious part of our thinking is not in charge of running the behavior, feeling or response we don't want, the first step in changing the behavior is learning to access the part of ourselves that is responsible for running it. When we learn to communicate with our mind and body they become allies and we achieve a sense of wholeness and an awareness about ourselves that is necessary to make lasting changes in our lives. By learning to work with the unconscious parts that hold us back, we can transform our inner parts into inner allies, who communicate with us on the deepest levels of our being and then communicate with our conscious mind to make life changes." CRT help us to accomplish this.

The brain is the most complicated organ in the body. 14 billion neurons form a specialized network to direct the body's every reflexive and voluntary movement, memory, thought, and emotional behavior. (Ron Lagerquist) The simple, but beautiful truth is that the body has tremendous healing capabilities! Put on the right path, the body can heal from seemingly impossible things. By accessing the body’s biocomputer via muscle testing, we can gain the necessary information, and put the body on the right path for healing and balance. Scientists tell us that we only use about 10% of our brain. With CRT, we can access the 90% that is subconscious and unconscious. The nervous system is so sensitive that if we touch a reflex point or say something that is irritating to the nervous system, we will get a weak response, but if it’s neutral or okay with the nervous system, we will have a strong response with muscle testing.

I believe that in order to be whole, body, mind, and spirit have to be in harmony. I truly appreciate each patient as an individual, because God created us as individuals. Different people may have the same symptoms, whether it is headache, back pain, allergies, learning challenges, depression, etc. but their cause is very unique. It is a privilege and an honor to have the gift of communicating with people’s bodies, in order to enhance the body’s own healing capabilities through this energy healing. I dedicate my life to doing God’s Will for me: helping each person live in body-mind-spirit harmony and express his/her optimum potential, and be open to receiving the fullest of life’s blessings.

I sense God's urging to be more public about teaching Cellular Regeneration Technique, and to teach to larger audiences. Hopefully, you find great value in this healing work and will recommend it to those you feel would be open to it and benefit from it. Your help in this regard is very much appreciated.
