The 7 factors

What influences our well-being?

In the theory of ART, Dr. Klinghardt identified seven confounding factors, all of which are equally important. If the user observes a reaction during ART testing, it is often due to one or more of these "7 factors."

The 7 factors

According to Dr. Klinghardt's model, seven key factors can be identified that, in his view, impair our well-being. In his work, these factors are linked to the development of stress, exhaustion, disease, dysregulatory processes in the immune and nervous systems, and exposure to microorganisms such as parasites, yeasts, Borrelia, and other pathogens. These seven factors are:

  • The psyche (unresolved emotional conflicts and post-traumatic stress disorders, …)

  • Energetic interference fields and blockages (injuries, scars, teeth and mouth, piercings, tattoos, glasses, blockages, etc.)

  • Allergies and intolerances (allergies to food (gluten, casein, etc.), house dust, pollen, bed feathers, ...)

  • Biophysical stress: Electrosmog and geopathy (stress caused by electromagnetic fields – disturbed sleep or workplace, or car seat, etc.)

  • Toxins and environmental pollutants (heavy metals, glyphosate, solvents, drug residues, hair dyes, petrochemicals, wood preservatives, food contaminants, biotoxins (toxins from bacteria, viruses, fungi, etc.)

  • Nutrient deficiency (proteins, vitamins, enzymes, ...)

  • Structural problems, blockages in the musculoskeletal system and dental area (occlusion, vertebral and pelvic displacement, fascial shortening, postural problems, ...)

Dr. Klinghardt assigns the individual factors to the five levels of his model (see the section "5-Level Model according to Dr. Klinghardt"). During application, the therapist observes whether and to what extent one of these factors might be relevant to a physical reaction. A deeper understanding of the possible connections between these influencing factors and the client's well-being can be helpful for the practitioner to support individual development processes more specifically.
