Frequently
Asked Questions
1.
How long does it take to learn NET?
Everything
you need to know to do basic NET is taught in the 2-day NET
Basic seminar. Skill comes with time. In the beginning you
may take 15 minutes to clear an NEC during an office visit.
As your skill increases, it is possible to clear NECs in 3-5
minutes.
2.
How many different seminars does NET have and what are they
(what do they cover)?
See
our seminar descriptions
and schedules
3.
Will I know all there is to know about NET if I take all the
seminars NET offers?
NET
is a dynamic and continuously evolving technique. As research
is released and/or developed the clinical applications expand.
However, the basic foundation and fundamentals of NET have,
for the most part, remained the same since Dr. Walker developed
the technique. As with any skill, your knowledge and expertise
will continue to improve and expand as you practice and use
the techniques that you have acquired in our seminars.
4.
How do I explain NET to my patients; and are there any books
available?
In
addition to the patient's pages on this web site, we will
be teaching you in our NET Basic seminar how to explain and
bridge NET to your patients. We have various patient education
brochures available to support you and your patients. There
is also an audio tape available for your patients of an interview
with Dr. Scott Walker by "The Health Detective." Also
available is LouAnn Hall, Ph.D.'s book, "Good News for People
Who Hurt..." which contains many case stories relevant from
a patient's point of view. This book is very helpful in explaining
the value of NET. Also, to expand your background with an
explanation of how emotions work, we recommend as a starting
place the following three books: "Shame and Pride" by Donald
Nathanson, M.D. and "Molecules of Emotion" by Candice Pert,
MD
5.
Am I doing psychotherapy if I do NET?
NET
treatment is not a substitute for psychological or psychiatric
therapy. Patients who show a possible need for psychotherapy
are referred to psychological or psychiatric professionals
for evaluation and/or treatment. The correction of an NEC
is a physiological phenomenon accomplished by qualified NET
practitioners.
6.
Who is qualified to attend NET seminars?
Practitioners
with doctorate or master's level degrees in the healing arts.
7.
Are CE credits given for any of the NET seminars?
At
this time CE credits are not issued for any of the NET seminars.
However, some state boards do accept a letter of attendance
that outlines the hours and the curriculum. A letter of attendance
will be issued to you upon your request.
8.
What happens if I get back in my office and get stuck?
In
addition to numerous support materials that are available
to NET graduates, we have a technical support system just
a phone call away. We encourage you to call us at our toll-free
number (800-888-4638) with your questions. When we receive
a technical call, we strive to answer your questions quickly
and in as much detail as possible.
9.
How do I find other NET practitioners?
Just
email the NET Referral line for patients and practitioners
at walkeroffice@netmindbody.com
10.
Can my office assistant or spouse attend the seminars?
Most
of the seminars are designed for practitioners only. In this
way we can keep the focus of the lectures and workshops in
a direction that will allow the practitioners to easily learn
the material and return to their offices ready to help others.
Presently, only one of our seminars (NET SUCCESS) allows
for a NET graduate to bring a guest.
11.
Do I have to know muscle testing in order to do NET?
It
is not necessary to know muscle testing to learn NET. In the
NET Basic seminar we do cover and teach the simple form of
muscle testing that is used when doing the Neuro Emotional
Technique®. It is helpful to have knowledge or experience in
muscle testing, but not necessary.
12.
What if the patient refuses NET treatment?
It
is the patient's right to choose the treatment available with
NET. We feel it is your obligation to make your patient aware
that an emotional component may be affecting his/her health
problems. The "Golden Rule" in NET is to always inform the
patient and then respect and honor the patient's "free will."
13.
Do you have educational videos for sale that teach the work?
No.
The only way to learn the Neuro Emotional Technique® and all
clinical applications is to attend
a NET seminar.
14.
Do you have research to support NET?
Yes.
Recently the ONE Research Foundation (a non-profit health education,
research and service organization) published the results of
ground-breaking research substantiating the semantic response,
which is one of NET's basic tools, with muscle testing. This
monumental work was headed up by ONE's Director of Research,
Daniel A. Monti, MD, and is titled "MUSCLE TEST COMPARISONS
OF CONGRUENT AND INCONGRUENT SELF-REFERENTIAL STATEMENTS."
The complete study is published in the prestigious and peer-reviewed
journal, "Perceptual and Motor Skills," 1999, 88, 1019-1028.
Two
other very exciting case studies relating to NET have also
been published. One paper is titled, "Two cases of spinal
manipulation performed while the patient contemplated an associated
stress event: the effect of the manipulation/contemplation
on serum cholesterol levels in hypercholesterolemic subjects,"
and the other is titled, "The Effects of Spinal Manipulation
on the Intensity of Emotional Arousal in Phobic Subjects Exposed
to a Threat Stimulus: A Randomized, Controlled, Double-Blind
Clinical Trial." Both studies are authored by Net's 1999 Doctor
of the Year, Kristopher B. Peterson, DC The first paper was
published in "Chiropractic Technique," Vol. 7, No. 2, May
1995, and the other paper was published in "JMPT," Vol. 20,
No. 9, November/December, 1997.
15.
How long has NET been around? How did Dr. Walker come up with
NET?

this link to find out About
Us.
16.
What happens after a NET treatment?
Many
times patients express immediate relief and report that they
feel as if a "great weight" has been removed from their physical
being. NET seeks to normalize a neurological imbalance which
allows a change in physiology. After treatment, the patient's
physiology will be strengthened, allowing enhanced gains in
his/her overall return to health.
17.
Who teaches NET?
NET
seminars are presently taught by Dr.
Scott Walker and/or Dr. Deborah Walker. Both are chiropractors
with 40+ years combined experience.
18.
Why should I incorporate the NET technique into my practice?
Negative
emotions (conscious or unconscious) can manifest as an imbalance
affecting your patients' physiology, resulting in ill health.
NET is a simple, safe and effective methodology of finding
and removing emotional blocks to your patients' health.
19.
How many times does a patient require NET Treatment?
It
depends. Some conditions require only one NET treatment; others
require more. We have found that there are layers of emotional
influence stored in the history of our body. As a practitioner,
you are taught to test for NECs whenever you suspect an emotional
component may be a factor.
20.
Can you do NET on children? Is it safe?
Yes
and yes. As with adults, we have found layers of emotional
influence in children who exhibit health problems or conditions.
We have found NET to be very safe and non-intrusive. Children
are extremely responsive to the benefits of NET.
