From Paper to Digital
Some of the earliest OIRF newsletters, dating back to the 1980s, were printed and mailed (yes, by postal mail) to practitioners worldwide. These have now been recreated and added to the archive. Even in those early editions, the concept of an “information bridge linking practitioners” inspired both the newsletter’s title and its bridge-themed banners. Many of these early treasures can be found here or in the Treasures from the Vault section.

The Bridge Newsletter
In the early 2000s, “The Bridge” became a regular monthly publication, featuring articles by advisors and directors along with many contributions from the German and European journals precisely translated into English.

Praxis2Practice Today
Since OIRF’s closure in 2018, Carolyn has continued reviewing German and English-language journals, publishing a monthly blog/newsletter – many articles now also included here – featuring timely commentary and resources relevant to daily practice.

We hope this archive supports your knowledge and professional growth in Biological and Energy Medicine.

  • “Turn! Turn! Turn!*” A Time of Consideration A4M Anti-Aging or Complementary & Energy Medicine Medical vs Wellness or Physical/Chemical vs Energy Can We Use Energetic Assessments to Guide Therapy and Move Toward “Wellness”? I have taken some time after returning from the A4M Conference in Las Vegas, NV during December 2019 and over the recent holiday period for a great deal of personal introspection. My mind has been spinning with the input of exceptional information and the considerations of the consequences of the ever-encroaching regulative restrictions. Like the contradictions [...]

  • Email Question: I am interested in obtaining the FIT 915 photobiological glasses from your information. I have lost sight in one eye and have degenerative sight in the other. I am concerned about the safety of using this device. Could the bright photon light in any way hurt or diminish my failing sight? Carolyn’s rambling answer: Please understand that I make my recommendations and suggestions based on the more than 45 years of experience and work in this field of complementary medicine. Many times over the years, we have [...]

    Brief Announcement Regarding Medical Electronics Among the most progressive companies with whom I was able to hold discussions, was Mr. Dieter Jossner and Medical Electronics. This 40+ year old company has consistently provided us with the highest quality German-made devices for both medical and wellness BioPhoton applications. In view of the impending new regulations and ISO certification procedures for medical devices, Mr. Jossner figuratively told them to “forget it”. He has slightly altered or modified every single device in his extensive catalog, completed development of several newer devices and [...]

  • Considerations and Resolutions for New Global 2020 Medical Device Regulations One of my strongest interests this year, was to determine where the complementary “medical” device industry was headed. As you know from my articles following the 2018 Med-Week Congress the scuttlebutt was all centered around the looming restrictive regulation and certification procedures. The necessity to incorporate that bar code onto each device and related accessory (even cables) meant they would no longer be able to export any device into a country where the device was not registered with the [...]

    A Report on the 53rd Medicine Week Congress, Baden-Baden Germany 2019 In the few weeks that have passed since the closing of this venerable annual Congress, I’ve managed to recoup, regroup and reorganize not only from the jetlag (after 27 hours of travel and nine time zones coming home) but also within my busily working head. Somehow, this time it was necessary to let the impressions, and information and perceptions gel into a strong focus. As I have on so many occasions, I participated in this year’s congress for [...]

  • 01 October 2019 Oh yes, and I’ve been writing again. A combination of a personal experience and then discovering a most interesting article in a recent German Journal, has resulted in another “ah ha” moment for me and for point and med-testers everywhere. When testing your patients, do you get them to remove their watch, rings, cell phone and so on? Ever asked about their hearing aids? Modern digital hearing aids are truly phenomenal for those of us who are hearing impaired, but is it really okay to have [...]

  • Announcements, Updates and Reminders August 2019 08 August 2019 Dear Colleagues and Friends, It’s finally done. The over four months of detailed bleary-eyed computer work has finally been completed, and I am pleased to announce that the digitalized third version of the OIRF Chinese Medical Classics is now available. I have come to truly appreciate all the dedicated work that went into the development of these course materials during the early 1980’s. Working as a team Dr. Michael Barnett, Dr. Michael Coburn† and myself (Carolyn) spent endless hours translating, [...]

  • Comments in a recent email from D.S., Illinois USA I thought to briefly report back in after a couple weeks or so with the "toys." My phone call with Dieter was enjoyable. Regarding the super learning... I called Dieter Jossner yesterday regarding the "super learning capability." He said the FIT 915 goggles served the general function of literally getting the brain "fit" (5 to up to 15 min. upon rising w/ white light) while the NSA 07 frequency device would be used for the actual super learning part. While [...]

    Miracles, Scams and Possibilities During our German Biological Medicine Tour #38 to Germany in 2011, the group had the great privilege of visiting the world famous Villa Medica, in Edenkoben Germany. We heard an amazing lecture from Dr. Geoffrey Huertigen and were given a guided tour through the entire facility. They maintain their own large flock of organic and naturally raised sheep, cared for by their resident shepherd. Today, they refer to their technique as “Management with Cell Therapy”. This was however the original resident hospital clinic for stem [...]
