Autonomic Response Testing
Autonomic Response Testing (ART) is a form of bio-feedback testing that can be used to analyze the body's structural, physical, and nutritional needs[1][2][3][4]. It is a highly sensitive and accurate method of evaluating the body's autonomic nervous system's response to a specific stressor or a group of stressors[3]. ART can be used to diagnose difficult conditions and even help determine the most likely beneficial nutritional supplements for a patient[4].
When using ART to select nutritional products for a patient, the practitioner will typically perform the following steps[5]:
- Identify the patient's chief complaints and health goals.
- Conduct a physical examination of the patient to identify any structural imbalances or physical issues.
- Use ART to evaluate the patient's autonomic nervous system response to various stressors, including nutritional supplements.
- Based on the results of the ART evaluation, recommend specific nutritional supplements that are most likely to benefit the patient.
- Monitor the patient's progress and adjust the nutritional supplement regimen as needed.
It is important to note that ART does not replace conventional medical diagnosis and treatment. Rather, it is a complementary approach that can be used in conjunction with other forms of healthcare to help optimize a patient's overall health and well-being.
