Tuesday, 20 January 2015 Dear Colleagues, Friends and Supporters of OIRF, As we assess 2014 and get set to begin another new year, I trust that you are filled with optimism and plans that will take your practice to the next level of success. It has certainly been an interesting year here at Occidental Institute as we successfully instituted the many changes on our “to do lists” from this time last year. I am thrilled to be working with practitioners and researchers who have endeavored to present us with [...]

The protocol is in 3 parts and is aimed at making a very individualised remedy for the patient. It is somewhat complex to follow but if you, the reader, follow it through in front of the MORA then it should make sense. Please note that D double bar does not bring us back to D. D double inversion appears to work differently from both D and D inversion. All testing is done using the Vega test. * Part 1 The aim of this part is [...]

Comments from the Director During preparation of the last 2014 Issues of “The Bridge” I found that in several of our recent Issues there has been a lot of emphasis on instrumentation. I have commented several times previously that I foresee an increase in the use of this kind of instrumentation as we move into 2015 and beyond due to the changing regulations and registrations of the many European (German) remedies that we have come to rely on. How does the practitioner maintain a natural or biological medicine approach [...]

The Ebola Virus is one type from the Filoviridae family. These are usually threadlike, 1,000 to 14,000 nanometers long and 60 to 80 nanometers wide in diameter. After the pandemic is before the pandemic. And thus after Bird Flu, SARS, Swine Flu and EHEC (Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli) we are currently flooded with a new wave of scaremongering by the media: Ebola. Allegedly, in this case it concerns a deadly virus illness against which even our progressive school medicine has still found no remedy. Consequently it says, the [...]

Wednesday, 26 November 2014 Dear Colleagues, Friends and Supporters of OIRF, A delay in receipt of one of the Director articles this Issue, freed me to look at another translation for our November issue. And, what more current or more frightening a topic is there than Ebola? The current outbreak in Africa that has already begun to migrate to U.S. soil presents us – as biological medicine practitioners – with interesting but yet challenging possibilities. First, here is the link to see information and comments from the National Center [...]

As I finalized my preparations for the forthcoming 41st Biological Medicine Tour to Germany, I was reminded of the many amazing practitioners and researchers that have presented their work and findings to the groups over the years. We have seen and heard so many of the “greats” that it is almost impossible to remember and list them all. One of our greatest challenges in organizing these tour programs is to make sure that we separate the wheat from the chaff (as the saying goes) to ensure that the participants [...]

Concept and Practice I. Introductory Remarks For 150 years we have lived with a world view which is shaped in a significant manner by the knowledge of mechanics and chemistry, the scientific bases that quite substantially determine modern civilization. In spite of the enormous advances in knowledge in the area of electronics, this usual world view is hardly shaken up. Especially in medicine there are many innovations in diagnostics that show the influence of modern physics. However the new findings from biology about the physical-energetic [...]

Energetic Principles of Light and Color Color Light Therapy is a part of the modern device supported procedures in the naturopathic practice. Its origins are old because color light therapy originally arose from Heliotherapy (helios, Greek = sun), the medical treatment with sunlight. Physically light and color are well defined. Sunlight is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum and consists of approximately 42% infrared light (“thermal radiation”), 51% visible light and about 6% ultraviolet light (UV-light). The light we can see [...]

Finally! Follow this link to see the study completed, published and recognized for MORA Therapy and Smoking Cessation as published in the prestigious “Forschende Komplementärmedizin” journal [this is a very expensive and commercially oriented journal to which as a non-profit OIRF is unable to afford to subscribe]. This highly effective method has been in use for a number of years, and we are thrilled to see it receive the recognition it deserves: www.karger.com/Article/FullText/365742 A Special Announcement for OIRF Supporters From THE BRIDGE Newsletter of OIRF Published September [...]

Occidental Institute Celebrates 40 Years Advocating Biological Medicine Abstract: Occidental Institute was founded in 1972 as a traditional Chinese acupuncture training organization. In spite of harassment from the medical authorities, it has developed into an internationally recognized research and support organization for practitioners of biological medicine. Finally settling in Penticton, British Columbia Canada, under the corporate structure of a nonprofit research foundation, Occidental Institute is able to continue acting as an information and technology bridge linking Germany with English speaking practitioners around the world. In [...]
