Lajpat Rai Mehra Neurotherapy (LMNT) is a non-pharmacological, alternative healing system developed by Dr. Lajpatrai Mehra in India, based on Vedic principles. It uses pressure and massage on specific nerve and blood channels to restore the body’s biochemical balance and stimulate nerves and organs, thereby facilitating the body’s self-healing mechanism. The therapy addresses the root cause of disease, aiming to improve the overall functioning of the body, mind, and spirit.
Principals
- Focus on the nervous system: By applying pressure to specific points, a neurotherapist aims to stimulate nerves and glands to help correct hormonal, digestive, and other imbalances.
- Pressure-point techniques: The therapy involves applying pressure or deep tissue massage with the feet or hands to various parts of the body in a precise sequence. The intensity is adjusted according to the patient’s age, gender, and tolerance.
- Addressing the root cause: LMNT operates on the principle that the body’s internal organs become imbalanced, leading to disease. A key diagnostic technique involves palpating specific “pain points” around the navel and hip to identify organ malfunctions.
- Holistic approach: The therapy combines mechanical, psychological, and biochemical aspects to help the body restore its natural equilibrium. It treats the entire system rather than just the symptoms.
- Wide range of applications: Practitioners claim LMNT can treat a variety of conditions, including chronic pain, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, skin disorders, and certain neurological problems.
- Integration with modern diagnostics: Though it has its own diagnostic methods, LMNT also considers modern medical tests, such as blood work, X-rays, and MRI reports, to assess a patient’s condition.
- Balancing bodily forces: The therapy is based on the Ayurvedic concept of three vital forces—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—believed to coordinate the body’s functions. LMNT aims to restore balance to these forces, known as doshas.
- Root cause identification: The therapy identifies and addresses the root cause of an illness. According to LMNT, many diseases start with a disturbance in digestion, which leads to an imbalance in the body’s biochemical composition.
- Central role of the navel: LMNT considers the navel (nabhi) as the body’s epicenter. The therapist first diagnoses and corrects any displacement of the pulse at the nabhi before treating individual organs.
- Biochemical analysis: The therapy classifies symptoms into acidosis (excess acid) and alkalosis (excess alkali) based on the body’s chemical balance.
