What is Neuro-Emotional Technique (NET)?

NET is a mind-body healing method that helps identify and release unresolved emotional stress that may be affecting physical health. Developed by Dr. Scott Walker in the 1980s, NET is based on the understanding that the body can store emotional experiences in the nervous system, which can later contribute to pain, dysfunction, or chronic health challenges.

NET uses a combination of manual muscle testing, body reflex points, and mind-body awareness to locate these stress-related imbalances. By gently accessing the nervous system and facilitating emotional processing—often linked to past events or traumas—the technique helps restore harmony in both the emotional and physiological systems of the body.

Rather than focusing on talk therapy or re-living emotional events, NET provides a safe, efficient way to clear emotional patterns that may be interfering with healing. It’s commonly used to support physical pain, anxiety, self-sabotage patterns, phobias, immune dysfunction, and more. NET honors the profound connection between emotional health and physical vitality, offering a bridge between body-based care and emotional wellness.
