Ancestral Balm.  It's our "special" cure that bestows immunity.

So, let's say you are rooted.  If you cure it with AB, you are then immune to root for 10 seconds.  If someone roots you again during that time, you will get the detrimental, but you will not be rooted.  You can then cure it again to "refresh" your 10 second immunity.  Basically, you can be infinitely immune if you are getting chain rooted and you continually use AB to cure it.

This applies to any control effect - daze, stun, mez, etc.

So, what Gahnand is saying here is that you lead off with Immunities, which makes you completely immune to all control effects.  When Immunities is about to run out, you cure yourself with AB, which then gives you another 10 seconds of control immunity to whatever it just cured.  Ad nauseaum.

Alright that just sounds OP.

I like it.

I have the spell just didn't put 2 and 2 together. Thanks for clearing that up. SMILEY

It's not nearly as OP as it sounds.  Remember, AB has to actually cure a specific effect to trigger the immunity to that effect.  So, curing a root doesn't make you immune to stun for instance.

it's not OP, but it's an amazing ability and should be used every time it's up over ST cure which is basically 99% of the time unless you still spam click cures which unless you are in TSO progression, you're doing it wrong.
