Electro Dermal Screening: In the 1950s Doctor Reinhold Voll, a German biophysicist, discovered a way to measure the energy level of 'bio' points (the life-energy points used in acupuncture) with an electrical device. Through these electro-dermal screening (EDS) measurements he could:

  • Screen the energy levels of the organs in the body Identify toxic substances, food intolerances and microbes that affect the body’s functioning
  • Screen the vitamin and mineral profile
  • More importantly, he also discovered that through these same acupuncture 'bio' points, the effects of toxic chemicals and microbes could be minimised and corrective remedies could be identified.

Since the initial conception of electro dermal screening (eds) by Dr Reinhart Voll in the 1940’s, this health screening technique has undergone considerable refinement and development, culminating in today’s highly effective BEST System.

The BEST (Bio Energetic Stress Test) System is a sophisticated health screening instrument combining 21st century technology and acupuncture principles. It is capable of performing comprehensive health screening tests.

The equipment works by monitoring a natural energetic reaction within a person being screened. If they are sensitive to, depleted in, toxic with or would benefit from a substance then electrical changes occur within acupuncture points when those substances are placed near them

The BEST system works by simulating the energetic presence of a particular substance and monitoring the subsequent changes in the electrical characteristics of acupuncture points. From the response, which is graphically displayed on the computer, the practitioner can readily determine the individual's reaction to that substance. This is known as electro-dermal screening (eds) and is a fully tested and accepted means of health screening.

The BEST system screening instrument is capable of performing a wide range of energetic test including:

  • Vitamin and mineral levels
  • Food Intolerances
  • Hormone screening
  • Trace mineral levels
  • Dental imbalances
  • Environmental sensitivities
  • Toxin tracing
  • Internal organ functional health
