At a recent conference I was delighted to join a group going out for dinner. As always the discussions going around the table of some dozen biological medicine doctors were excited, at times heated and always interesting. At one point I grumbled (I thought quietly) about a lecturer of that day telling us how he was personally responsible for bringing Biological Medicine to North America and in the process not being respectful of the long history of the field here. As I mumbled away (under my breath I thought) [...]

The Energetic Resonance Test Is Feasible in a Few Seconds  It Essentially Saves a Lot of Work for the Methods EAV – Kinesiology – RAC Test – Tensor Test The energetic resonance test which the veterans of Electro-Acupuncture according to Dr. Voll (EAV) still know as the “energetic EAV medication test” is often time consuming. Additionally fewer and fewer test preparations are coming available. An absolutely new approach reduces the time involved to a few seconds and is irrespective of test preparations. [...]

YEAR END NEWS & UPDATES As Occidental Institute moves into 2012 we will be celebrating our Fortieth (yeah, that is our 40th) Anniversary Year. Version 1.0 of Occidental Institute opened its doors in Weston, Ontario Canada on July 2, 1972. On a personal level I just cannot imagine where all those years have gone. I guess the old saying about “time flies when you’re having fun” must apply, since there are so many exciting and wonderful memories to look back on. From a professional perspective looking back at the [...]

BOOK REVIEW Death by (Modern) Medicine White Coats as a Symbol of Life and Death Taken from “the Healthy Planet, St. Louis’ Green & Healthy Living Magazine”, September 2011 Death is part of life. Modern medicine saves lives. At least, I like to believe that, but death by medicine? Death by (Modern) Medicine written by Gary Null and Carolyn Dean is not what you may have in your mind. I have just read their books, Death by Medicine by Gary Null and Death by Modern Medicine by Carolyn Dean, [...]

EDITORIAL COMMENTS From your Director. 22 September 2011 And now all the news I have been bubbling over to tell you! After attending the Medicine Week Congress last year and keeping my usual eye out on my incoming German journals I noticed, and then have been a bit overwhelmed by, two major trends showing significant changes and controversy in Germany. In both cases, we will see the fallout of these trends in North America shortly. First of all, let me talk about the recent trend in Germany for various [...]

POINTS OF INTEREST / EDITORIAL by the Director, June 2011 You will have noticed a big difference by now in the type of articles I translated for this issue. Both articles appeared late last year in the German journal CO’MED and represent a big change in approach that is currently very popular with practitioners in Germany. Here at OIRF the incorporation of psychological, emotional and spiritual aspects into our armamentarium of diagnosis and therapy has always been a “touchy” subject. Of course one important factor for us was that [...]

UPDATES Latest vs. Tried & True – a long phone conversation . . . I had an interesting phone conversation with a long time (like 25 years) member the other day and we discussed a number of topics. He has used MORA BioResonance Therapy for at least 20 years and is happy and content with his “old” MORA Super. Yet on the other hand he is one of those who waited in line to get that recently released iPad just to make sure he had the latest and most [...]

IMPORTANT NOTIFICATION The following segment is excerpted from the March 2011 informational letter received from the National Center for Homeopathy. It’s interesting how these battles continue, and continue to repeat themselves. This is the same battle that was fought over acupuncture back when the Institute first opened its doors in Weston, Ontario those many years ago. I have included this excerpt in this Issue for two reasons: A reminder that our battle continues – that we must remain vigilant in protection of our natural and effective methods of medicine, [...]

“It seems the past months have been sad ones as we have lost more of the “old rabbits” from our field. For some mystical reason we are seeing ever more losses of those who have been the innovators and the guiding lights of biological medicine. In this issue it is my sad duty to inform you about the passing of longtime member and supporter Dr. Moki Uhara from Hawaii. Moki has been a member of the Institute for nearly thirty years. He has traveled to Germany several times on [...]
