  • The Human Body Glows

    October 15, 2009|Points of Interest (Articles)|

    WEB WATCH The following report received from Dr. Brian L. MacCoy Subject: The human body literally glows emitting a visible light The human body literally glows, emitting a visible light in extremely small quantities at levels that rise and fall with the day. Past research has shown that the body emits visible light, 1,000 times less intense than the levels which can be seen with the naked eye. In fact, virtually all living creatures emit very weak light. To learn more about this faint visible light, scientists in Japan [...]

  • Tuning the MORA to the Individual

    September 15, 2009|Articles|

    Or, The Individual Setting I have been asked on several occasions what the individual setting of the Mora is, and how I came to discover it. When the Mora III was first launched it came with two sheets of suggested settings for various conditions including Basic Therapy. Although these suggestions sometimes made an improvement in the condition of the patient the suggestions very often did not appear to make any improvement or to offer only a minimum change. This gave me cause for concern. It also seemed wrong to me [...]

  • Needle in the Haystack

    September 15, 2009|Points of Interest (Articles)|

    S’pore’s first non-Chinese acupuncturist had a hard time being accepted. Race is something Justin Morais has always been very aware of. Years ago, as Singapore’s first non-Chinese acupuncturist, he had to jump through hoops to be accepted by the local acupuncture community. And by Singaporeans too. Today, none of this is evident as he tends to clients of all races and walks of life at his second-floor unit in bustling Hougang Central. Among them, you can often see Catholic nuns, expatriates and football stars. “I guess they have decided [...]

  • A Reply to Dr. Pizzorno

    April 15, 2009|Commentaries & Editorials (Articles)|

    Please follow this link to see Dr. Pizzorno's Editorial Commentary 25 February 2009 Joseph Pizzorno, ND Editor in Chief at Integrative Medicine Dear Dr. Pizzorno: I have been a subscriber to IMCJ since its inception. I am most impressed by the fact that your publication has done so much to bring our many alternative methods into a more favorable light with conventional medicine. Our Occidental Institute was initially founded in 1972 and has been dedicated to bringing reliable, yet practical, information concerning alternative (or your so called “fringe”) methods to [...]

  • The Bolivia Connection:

    February 15, 2009|Articles|

    U.S. Army Targets Parasites My new patients always ask me with a certain skepticism why I use parasite medications for their conditions when no other doctors seem concerned about parasites. Most American medical doctors hardly have any experience with parasites or experience using parasite medications. My story starts with my experience in Bolivia while serving as a U.S. Army Reserve Medical Officer. April 2001, our U.S. Army reserve unit, 21st General Hospital from St. Louis, was assigned to Bolivia for a peace keeping mission. Our small medical team consisting [...]

  • Patterns of measurement, Part 2

    October 15, 2008|Articles|

    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 [...]

  • Tonus of the Vegetative Nervous System

    September 15, 2008|Journal Translations (Articles)|

    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 [...]

  • Taking EAV Measurements, Part 1

    September 15, 2008|Articles|

    When Carolyn invited me to contribute an article on EAV for the Newsletter I was both honoured and at a complete loss as to where to start. The subject is so vast! Perhaps the best place to start is at the beginning with taking measurements. In order to give good treatment, a good diagnosis is necessary. We can all use the MORA to give symptomatic treatment but is this what the patient wants? Many of my patients know that they do not feel well but conventional medicine has been [...]

    On the Death of Dr. med. Dieter Aschoff Dieter Aschoff, MD was born on 20.10.1918 and passed away on 24.1.2008 after a short illness. His life stood in the service of natural healing therapies. He was a founding member of the Gesellschaft für Erfahrungsheilkunde. Together with Dr. Reinhold Voll in the practice of Dr. Korthals in Wuppertal in the 1950’s he discovered the electro-acupuncture test which Voll later further developed. Dr. Aschoff was one of the first doctors who learned acupuncture with Dr. Bachmann in Munich. However his main [...]

  • Acupuncture + Homeopathy

    June 15, 2008|Articles|

    Acupuncture + Homeopathy = Homeopuncture INTRODUCTION With the introduction of modern practices, such as Electrotherapy, Ryodoraku, EAV, Bioresonance therapy, Laser-Acupuncture, Magneto-Acupuncture and so on, the face of Traditional Chinese Medicine has undergone sweeping changes during the last 30 years. The discovery of a plethora of neurotransmitters, hormonal mechanisms and neural mechanisms, which are triggered by needling have swung the pendulum of credibility of acupuncture in one great leap forward, from a folk medicine to the sophisticated finely tuned neuro-humoral mechanism which it probably is. The combination of acupuncture with [...]
