Here's the written transcription of the interview:
Natural Therapy Pages: I'm Mel from NTPagesTV, and I'm here with Jessica from Allergy Pathway. How are you going, Jessica?
Jessica Keir: Not too bad, thanks.
NTP: That's good, so tell me about Allergy Pathway.
JK: Well, pretty much we have naturopaths working here. We use a form of muscle testing to find out any sensitivities people have, and we use a form of positive conditioning to treat those and help people out with common conditions like eczema, hay fever, all that kind of stuff.
NTP: Okay, so it's a combination of naturopathy and kinesiology, things like that, yeah?
JK: Yeah, definitely. It's an incorporation of a few other things and acupressure as well. So, it's all coming together.
NTP: So, it's quite unique.
JK: It is, yeah. We're the only ones doing this particular kind of treatment in Australia and New Zealand.
NTP: So, whereabouts are your centres?
JK: We have North Sydney, and also the major, like Brisbane, Melbourne. We have one in Auckland, which is the recent one as well, and also Perth.
NTP: Okay, so your practitioners are specifically trained in the ways of.
JK: Yeah, they've all done a health science degree in naturopathy and advanced diploma of naturopathy as well. But they also get trained with the company to perform the Allergy Pathway treatments.
NTP: So, talk to me a little bit more in-depth about it. So, if somebody presents with what's like a common occurrence.
JK: Eczema
NTP: Yeah, so they come in.
JK: Yeah, the practitioner will go through a detailed patient history about what the actual triggers are for that person. And by going through the testing, like through a range of food groups, airborne substances, they determine what the person is reacting to. And by treating those one at a time using the positive association technique, they do find that the symptoms do slowly get better and that they do see really good results.
NTP: That's fantastic, good to hear. So, do you have a website that we can go to for more information?
JK: Yeah, we do have. www.allergypathway.com.au and that has all the links to all the contact details and some information on there too.
NTP: Fantastic. Well, thank you so much for your time today, and good luck for the rest of the show.
JK: No worries. Thank you.
