How to Locate an ETA-Scan Practitioner

The ETA-scan medical protocol involves a fairly recent technology in the medical profession. As of 2011, the ETA-scan technology falls, on a worldwide basis, under such classifications of medical practice as natural healing or energy medicine. These classifications have limited acceptance within Western medicine in general and within some regions of the United States in particular. You have the best chance of getting help finding an ETA-scan practitioner through regular medical practitioners if your medical team includes a naturopathic physician.

Instructions

• 1

  Determine, if you are seeking an ETA-scan within the United States, your reasons for wanting to have an ETA-scan. Prepare yourself with as much information as you can to present to your physician. Discuss the potential for an ETA-scan as fully as possible with your relevant specialist, with your general medical practitioner or in consultation with a generalist and a specialist.

• 2

  Assess how important it is to you to have an ETA-scan. Recognize that you most likely will need to travel, possibly outside the United States, to gain access to an ETA practioner. Although the ETA-scan protocol has gained acceptability from medical practitioners in Europe, Canada and other parts of the world, among United States medical practitioners this diagnostic technology has limited recognition or acceptance. Evaluate whether you can afford such travel and whether doing so has enough importance to justify the costs.

• 3

  Identify the level of acceptability of the ETA-scan protocol in your area. Different physicians have a different level of regard for technologies brought into the United States from other countries without those devices or protocols having first gained acceptance within the United States medical community. Consider, if your normal care providers resist putting you in touch with a practitioner of this protocol, adding a naturopathic doctor, who may have greater openness to this protocol, to your overall medical team.

• 4

  Gather funds. Because the medical profession in the United States, overall, has yet to accept the ETA-scan technology, health insurance companies may provide no coverage and most likely will not cover an out-of-country protocol. Realize that you may have to absorb the expense yourself not only of travel, possibly international travel, but of the procedure itself.

• 5

  Realize that the more limited the acceptance of your practitioners and insurance company, the more difficulty you will have convincing practitioners to assist you in locating an ETA-scan practitioner. Contact a professional association whose practitioners may include ETA-scan practice within their overall range of services if your own medical team resists the ETA-scan protocol. Locate associations whose members offer services under such classifications as energy medicine, natural healing or resonance therapy.

  Contact one or more of these professional associations for assistance. Ideally, have the association representative work with your medical team or the presiding doctor to identify the best, including the most accessible, ETA-scan practitioner for your specific circumstance.
