How does the BEST instrument work?
BEST stands for Bio Energetic Stress Testing and is a combination of modern electronic technology and ancient acupuncture knowledge. Back in the 1950’s Dr R Voll discovered that acupuncture points (as used by Chinese acupuncturists for treatments) could be used to assess an individuals state of health. He developed a machine called the ‘Diatherapuncteur’ which monitored electrical changes in the skin at acupuncture points. The BEST System is a highly developed version of Dr Voll’s original instrument and basically monitors the body’s energetic response to various substances and tests through a process called biofeedback.
