In EV as I understand it and practice it, we are in the business of elevating our perceptual abilities, so that these perceptions might lead us to a generally quite minimalistic treatment that will help our patients. Using the techniques of EV assessment I find myself quite often treating at points and on channels that normal discursive thought never would have led me to. I love this about EV, that it surprises me. I see it as a method of getting the patient's body to speak to me with specificity. And it is surprisingly effective—and fun and exciting and challenging.
