This is a YouTube talk by Dr. Ellen Cutler introducing the Enzyme Compatibility Method (ECM) as an individualized approach to treating headaches and migraines. She emphasizes three ECM pillars—detoxification, optimal digestion (notably digestive enzymes), and identification/clearing of individual sensitivities/reactivities (foods, environment, hormones, products, structural issues)—and describes clinical successes, training/clinic goals, and resources (books, newsletter, coaching).

Hello everyone, Dr. Ellen Cutler here. And just a reminder, please subscribe to my YouTube videos Dr. Ellen Cutler and learn more about ECM, digestive enzymes, and how you can live a healthier life and increase your longevity and increase your stamina as well. One of the areas that have had really high success with with ECM is headaches and migraines. In fact, one time, many, many years ago, when I first started to DOCM ECM, I did a lecture on headaches and head 100 people in the room. And many of those people were so intrigued and they were so frustrated with getting headaches and migraines that they came to see me. My practice and the success was incredible. So they kept recommending other people to come see me. And so headaches are interesting because again, one thing that stands out with ECM is that it treats people individually. It's tailored to you. So not everyone who has a headache or migraine has the same issues or I call them reactivities or sensitivities than others have. In fact, men and women are very different when it comes to it. So again, ECM highlights three areas. One of them is to help the body detoxify. Because we live in a toxic world, especially with people who have headaches or who get migraines. Chemicals or environmental toxins can be a big factor. So helping the body detoxify easily, easily and efficiently. The second part is optimal digestion and nutrition. As you know, I am considered the empress of enzymes. Digestive enzymes save my life, everyone. I don't care if you come in with headaches, if you come with a toe ache, or you've come if you want better hair and nails, which is really important with good nutrition. But you got to digest your food. So I recommend everyone take a full spectrum digestive enzyme and then there are other enzymes, such supplements that have enzymes in it that I recommend for many other chronic health issues that you can see and learn about on my website, on my YouTube videos and in my books, of course. So headaches also have an array of different sensitivities. Reactivities. Some could be pure allergies, but sometimes it's reactivities. Some of the things just to give you an idea of what I've seen is foods. Some of the foods you can react to is the dairy products for sure. Milk and casein is a big one for headaches. Sugars is another big one. Wheat gluten can be a huge reactivity or sensitivity. Corn or other grains, cashews, coffee, chocolate can be culprits. Supplements people grab they see things. They take all the supplements. Even though I recommend some supplements, I recommend the foods, and I recommend, of course, optimal digestion with those foods. Other sensitivities might sound a little crazy. Animals can be one. Cold can be one. Humidity can be one too. Emotions, people, those are sensitivities as well that you can react to, that can give you headaches. Hormones are huge for women, especially for men too. But women especially estrogens and of course, supplements that have them in there. Progesterone, thyroid hormones are another big one too. That can be reactive, they could be reacting to or sensitive. That can cause headaches. Other things too is what you put on your hair, what you put on your skin. Fabrics, perfume, pesticides can do it too, as well as air in your house, air in airplanes, or humidity is another big one. There are so many different. I have huge categories that when I test people and I do this long distance as well as doing it, I do it indirectly as well as doing it in a clinic setting. I even teach you how to learn how to do it. This is the ECM technique that is revolutionary. My goal is to get ECM clinics all over the world so people can benefit from this. I remember I had a patient that came to see me from Pakistan who flew all the way out to spend the whole day with me. So I can help him because he read my books, learned how to do it, and helped his three children who had asthma with the ECM work well. I worked on him a whole day. He had a lot of digestive issues, by the way, which is a huge one for headaches. Not digesting your food or eating the wrong foods or reacting to those foods can definitely cause headaches too as well. And of course, it can be structural. As a chiropractor, structural alignment is super important. So sometimes it's not just one thing, it's multifactorial. It's many different things. And that's what the ECM can hone in on those reactivities, those sensitivities. And what's so revolutionary about this work is you can clear these sensitivities, you can clear these reactivities, and you can be pain free, no inflammation, no headaches. And you know what? You can reverse your biological age. Another video soon to come is how to reverse your biological age. How to enhance the beauty of your skin, how to increase your longevity, and how to increase your stamina and energy. But you can be headache free, you can be migraine free, you can even be sensitive to the glasses you put on the plastics. I have seen that as well. Or teeth issues too. So there's so many things, lots of it in my book.

And if you are a health practitioner, I am training ecm. I haven't done it for a while. I'm just starting to do that. I am so excited about it and I want clinics all over the world. ECM clinics.
