CHAPTER 3:
THE PHYSICAL BODY
PRINCIPLES OF NEURAL ORGANIZATION TECHNIQUE
Dr. Ferreri named his breakthrough method Neural
Organization Technique because it organizes the human
nervous system intelligently and specifically, so that it can
function in the way it was designed, at peak performance, not
at a level that is just out of pain or "barely getting by". Best
of
all, the hands-on method is effective when treating either
symptomatic or asymptomatic conditions.
There is very little guesswork in N.O.T. and the
treatment involves very specific corrections done in a precise
sequence, so there is a beginning and an end point. Unlike
other treatments that may require years and years of
corrections, this methodology calls for only one to three
sessions over a period of a few days. There is a high rate of
repeatability and reproducibility, not to mention a high rate of
success with most conditions.
On a scientific level, N.O.T.'s guiding principle is that in
order to understand basic physiological functions we must
look at our primitive origins. We were after all, created to
exist
and survive in a hostile environment (the jungle). Therefore the tools we
need for survival - with the exception of raw materials such as
food, air and water - must be found within the body itself. Our
bodies are designed to be self-healing, self-regulating,
self perpetuating
mechanisms designed to repair and replace their
own tissues. These mechanisms are innate, integrated and
fully automatic from the beginning of life, yet the modern
world's physical stresses, emotional trauma, poor diet and
sedentary lifestyle can upset these automatic, inborn
functions.
N.O.T. is the key to unlocking and understanding why
many of these self-contained mechanisms break down.
Human survival systems have been named for their primary roles: Feeding,
Fight/Flight and Reproduction. These three functions are external survival
systems which human beings employ for their existence. Internal survival is
governed by the Limbic System, which combines the immune, repair, growth and
cellular reproduction systems that are found within the body. Together these
two systems create a cohesive life force. I will explain in detail.
