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 [...]

Introduction This year’s article for “The Bridge” has proven to be more difficult than expected. I had intended to write about more specific techniques related to EAV but I have come to realise that this may not be appropriate. During the past year I have travelled in Europe, Russia, and Canada giving presentations in each country visited. I have been mildly surprised at the lack of questions or criticism that has arisen. When presenting new material or experience I had expected some degree of discussion and criticism which would [...]

Director’s Note: I have blatantly borrowed (verbatim) the following commentary out of IMCJ without permission and all credit goes directly to Dr. Benda and the IMCJ. I really like the way Dr. Benda writes (he has a real knack for getting his point across!) and the topics he is willing to tackle. Write, phone or e-mail us with your comments. The following editorial is taken from: IMCJ, Integrative Medicine; A Clinician’s Journal, Vol. 9, No. 2, Apr/May 2010. BACK TALK “Frankly, our concept of ‘evidence’ [...]

It seems the past months have been sad ones as we have lost more of the “old rabbits” of 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 two more great men, Dr. med. Dieter Hager and the engineer Erich Rasche. Such losses seem to lend me words along with the tears. We have lost so many [...]
