POINTS OF INTEREST According to Chinese metaphysical studies, everything is connected within the whole universe…….between Heaven, Man/Human and Earth. The study of Feng Shui is the environmental examination of Chi/Qi between Heaven and Earth – Time and Space, and by incorporating the principles of Balance and Harmony. The Christmas celebration happens a few days after the Winter Solstice, when the Water energy is strongest – most Yin time of the year, which is reflected by the cold temperature outside, and the shortest daylight hours during the day. In order [...]

Here is my annual article for “The Bridge”. It is short, but as always the information is priceless. I owe this information to Dr Joseph Hulme, an American needle acupuncturist. Dr. Hulme was approached by the USA military to design a swift, reliable and effective analgesic sequence for the acute, traumatic and painful situations so often found by soldiers in battle zones. I have used this sequence on myself for acute sciatica, on my staff for migraine headaches and on my patients in both acute and chronic situations. I [...]

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) The Frequency of Change I’ve seen a lot of information about Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy in the last couple of years. As in many areas, there appears to be a wide variety of equipment and procedures that use this moniker. And as usual, there’s a big difference among the approaches being used. Waveforms, intensity, frequency and other variables are very diverse, covering a broad spectrum. Some machines warn people not to use them if they have a pacemaker, for instance. Some units produce an [...]

In this article I would like to present some interesting observations made during the course of this year. Before discussing these observations a broad description of geopathic stress is presented in order to help orientate those readers who are less familiar with these concepts. Geopathic Stress A vexing question for the physician is why some patients, despite excellent and appropriate therapy, fail to respond to treatment or give only a marginal response. Sometimes there is a good response only to be followed by relapse; sometimes [...]

Lyme disease, named after the famed 1975 outbreaks in Lyme, Connecticut, is often known as the “great imitator” for its frequent mimicry of many other conditions. Estimated to be under-reported by a factor of 6 to 10 in the USA alone, Lyme has often lived in the shadow of other more publicized epidemics and public health issues, such as HIV and SARS, even though in recent years, it has likely outnumbered them both (1). Further complicated by the often problematic and inconsistent diagnostic criteria and testing methods put forth [...]

POINTS OF INTEREST Response to the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster - Part 3 Sent: March 30-11 Email To: OIRF Subject: Re: OIRF Report - Radiation Hello Carolyn and Elaine, Thanks for the heads up. I have already started my people on a Homeopathic remedy (EAV) for radiation fall-out, kelp and spirulina. I suggest you do the same. This event has caused me to realize that a host of problems we have been experiencing, as a people, that radiation has been an underlaying factor for some time [...]

POINTS OF INTEREST Response to the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster - Part 2 Sent: March-30-11 Email To: OIRF Subject: Re: OIRF Report - Radiation The hysteria around potassium iodide is inappropriate. The concern around radiation is not. Attached is an article of mine which Huffington Post picked up a couple of weeks ago. Here are the original version which names products and the "sanitized" version which does not name names but includes the references. If you would like to share these, you are welcome to. James [...]
