Frequency Medicine (Part 2): Devices: Wacky or Worthy?
Rob Verkerk You’ve heard news of a revolutionary frequency-based device that has a list of diseases it can supposedly remedy that would make Pfizer’s R&D team leader quiver. You’ve read dozens of testimonials and your head’s still spinning. Some were from cancer patients who were classified as terminally ill who’ve gone into ‘spontaneous remission’. Others […]
Frequencies (Part 1): Unearthing the Mysteries of Life
Rob Verkerk In this feature, we take a deeper dive into what’s going on in this fascinating and often neglected area of medicine, and we hope it might go some way to helping you sort the (gluten-free) wheat from the chaff. … Considering it is now nearly 120 years ago that Einstein proposed the theory […]
Clinical Studies of Biofield Therapies: Summary, Methodological Challenges, and Recommendations
Shamini Jain et al. Biofield therapies are noninvasive therapies in which the practitioner explicitly works with a client’s biofield (interacting fields of energy and information that surround living systems) to stimulate healing responses in patients. While the practice of biofield therapies has existed in Eastern and Western cultures for thousands of years, empirical research on […]
An Overview of Biofield Devices
David Muehsam et al. Advances in biophysics, biology, functional genomics, neuroscience, psychology, psychoneuroimmunology, and other fields suggest the existence of a subtle system of “biofield” interactions that organize biological processes from the subatomic, atomic, molecular, cellular, and organismic to the interpersonal and cosmic levels. Biofield interactions may bring about regulation ofbiochemical, cellular, and neurological processes […]
Biofields and Conscious Systems
Eugenio Lepine It is clear that neuroscience has the pole position regarding the understanding of consciousness. But there are many areas still to consider that play an important part in the conscious phenomenon. Many scientists are confident that just with classical mechanics we cannot decipher consciousness. Raul Valverde has a background on research in neuroscience, technologies […]
The Biofield Hypothesis: Its Biophysical Basis and Role in Medicine
Beverly Rubik This paper provides a scientific foundation for the biofield: the complex, extremely weak electromagnetic field of the organism hypothesized to involve electromagnetic bioinformation for regulating homeodynamics. The biofield is a useful construct consistent with bioelectromagnetics and the physics of nonlinear, dynamical, nonequilibrium living systems. It offers a unifying hypothesis to explain the interaction […]
Integrating the Zang Fu Organs of Traditional Chinese Medicine with the Chakras of Pranic Healing
Jason J. Calva, Glenn J. Mendoza and Shu Wang This article suggests the introduction of the biofield therapy known as “Master Choa Kok Sui Pranic Healing” be incorporated into the modern acupuncturist’s repertoire of healing methods. The authors correlate the zang fu organs of traditional Chinese medicine with the eleven-chakra energy map of Pranic Healing. […]
Measurement of the Human Biofield and Other Energetic Instruments
Beverly Rubik Energy medicine is one of the major categories of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). These therapies typically involve low-level energy field interactions. They include human energy therapies, homeopathy, acupuncture, magnet therapy, bioelectromagnetic therapy, electrodermal therapy, and phototherapy, among others. Many of these modalities challenge the dominant biomedical paradigm because they cannot be explained […]
