BIT: Brain Integration Technique
Early childhood stressors profoundly affect how we process information. The strategy developing brains use to cope with stressful situations is to limit the amount of information they assimilate. The "Information Super Highway" of the brain is the Corpus Callosum and overload will shut some of its lanes. At an early age there is very little downside in using this strategy to manage stress, however once academic learning begins this now automatic metering of information can cause problems. Examples of associated behaviors are ADD, ADHD, Dyslexia, problems with memory and concentration or spelling and reading. These accommodations will often follow a child through his or her lifetime, expending great effort and creativity adapting to achieve success.
Brain Integration Technique (BIT) developed from clinical research using Acupressure and Biofeedback to locate and examine these stress induced limitations. It was found that the brain begins to re-open blocked channels as soon as they are located with minimal further intervention. A simple analogy is that of resetting a blown circuit breaker in a house power panel. Experimentation led to a set of corrections that had the most direct effect on information processing and retention. These corrections specifically address neurology associated with academic performance and the results of BIT are demonstrated as greater success in school, the workplace, personal and professional relationships as well as the experience of greater competency with less stress.
Using light touch, each correction can take just a few minutes to a half hour or longer. To work through the the BIT protocol can take as little as 8 hours to 20 or more hours. The results may be experienced immediately or over the course of the following months. Remedial tutoring may be required to bring a child up to grade level, however this is a permanent, self maintaining solution that does not require exercises or medication.
BIT Sessions are usually scheduled in 2 - 3 hour blocks
Testimonial from mother of Autistic child
BIT has mostly developed in Europe and Australia where the medical establishment is more open minded to Energy Kinesiology modalities. In the UK, many European countries, Australia and New Zealand Energy Kinesiology is recognised as an established healing modality on parr with Chiropractic and Acupuncture and is covered by insurance. |
