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.

  • Stand by for Designer Pain Pills From NewsMax/October 2008 In the not-too-distant future, the pain reliever you take may be fine-tuned to your body. Dr. Dennis Patin, an associate professor of clinical anesthesiology at the University of Miami Medical School, says future pain medications will be tailored to work within the genetic roadmap of each person. “We’ll use samples of blood or body tissue to identify how a person metabolizes a drug, and what medication . . . is precisely best for an individual,” he asserts. This approach, known [...]

    We have all learned the standard interpretation of EAV measurement values (see previous article, The Bridge, Vol. 4, Issue #4). These interpretations hold true when most of the measurements are in a normal range (50-64) and stable, but what do we do when all measurements return pathological values? It is not uncommon to find that every “nail” point returns a high value with or without an i.d. If we interpret this according to the standard interpretations then we have to assume that the patient is very unwell – every [...]

  • October 2008 Dear Members: Those of you who joined us on Tour #30, in May 2004 when we went to see Dr. Geßwein in Bonn, or on several other Tour pro­grams where we attended International Symposiums, will remember hearing Dr. Gerhard Ohlenschläger. I remember him so clearly. A big man, not too mobile in his later years, but always a presence that inspired and challenged everyone he met – a man who even Dr. Fritz-Albert Popp considered a respected mentor. I remember a time during a Med-Tronik Symposium when [...]

    Understanding of the Role of Oxygen in Cancer Procreation This paper will explore and assess the contributions of Dr. Otto Warburg to contemporary theories on cancer therapy. Dr. Warburg maintained that lack of oxygen augments the citric acid cycle and therefore facilitates anaerobic glycolysis; this was borne out by medical studies. Another major contribution consisted of his link between oxygen levels to tumor growth and aggressiveness. This paper will prove that the augmentation of oxygen is critical in the fight against cancer and that Warburg [...]

  • Commentary by Carolyn L. Winsor, September 2008 The following article appeared in my university alumni newsletter earlier this year. It affected me deeply when I read it even though I do not know the author or his family. All of us in this field of biological medicine deal with cancer patients regularly since we have become the “court of last resort” (instead of the first), as they discover their radiation- and chemo- therapies are just not working – and are in fact making them worse and worse. Because we [...]

  • Its Meaning and Measurement By Dr. med. Univ. Ivan Engler 1. The Vegetative Nervous System (VNS) or the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) The VNS [15] is a connected control circuit mainly independent of the will which you can divide as follows: Sympathetic Nervous System or sympathicus (S-) Parasympathetic, also Vagotonic Nervous System or vagus (V-) The VNS consists of nerve cells embedded in the matrix of the Extracellular Regulative Ground System (= ERGS, [see in 3]), which form ganglions and ganglion strands, continue into the nerves and fibers, however [...]

    Web Watch Article Submitted by Dr. Brian L. MacCoy, September 2008 12 Babies Die During Vaccine Trials in Argentina At least 12 infants who were part of a clinical study to test a pneumonia vaccine have died in Argentina over the course of the past year. The study was sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline, and uses children from poor families. According to the Argentine Federation of Health Professionals, the families are “pressured and forced into signing consent forms”. The vaccine trial is still ongoing despite the denunciations. In Informational [...]

    Web Watch Article submitted by Dr. Brian L. MacCoy, September 2008 Remedies as Placebos: A Double-Edged Sword: “I do not believe and have never taught that homeopathy is the only way to heal people or the best way for everyone. But the usual argument that remedies are merely placebos cuts both ways. In the first place, it is plain wrong, since the method also has an impressive track record in the treatment of animals, newborn babies, and comatose patients, for whom the influence of suggestion is presumably negligible. Second, [...]

    Web Watch Article Submitted by Dr. Sir Zenon W. Gruba, September 2008 Understanding the “L-Form” Bacteria Targeting the Cause of Inflammatory Disease In 2006, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a paper stating, “Infectious agents have emerged as notable determinants, not just complications, of chronic diseases. To capitalize on these opportunities, clinicians, public health practitioners, and policymakers must recognize that many chronic diseases may indeed have infectious origins.” Multiple studies have shown that when Beta-lactam antibiotics are applied to wild-type bacteria in a Petri dish, small [...]

    FAQ’s MORA Basic Therapy and Quadrant Values The importance of basic therapy cannot be over-emphasised. If treatment of a patient’s complaint is to be effective and long lasting then it is essential to bring the four body quadrants back into balance in the normal range. If this is not done then the effects of therapy are likely to be disappointing. It is like building a house without foundations. Basic therapy goes some way to bringing about this balance. However, basic therapy alone will not rectify many quadrant imbalances but [...]
