A special report on the MEDICA Trade Fair Düsseldorf, Germany, Nov. 14 - 17, 2007 November 20, 2007 Dear Members: As I write this report I have been home from Germany for less than a day and even though jet lag is settling in, I feel strongly invigorated by my recent experiences. This year a number of the companies that we normally see at the Medicine Week Congress in Baden-Baden opted not to participate in that program. The Medicine Week congress has been gradually getting smaller and smaller each [...]

MORA Color Therapy According to Dr. Zenon Gruba This 41 page report was adapted (with permission) from the Power Point presentation given by Dr. Zenon W.

All energetic therapies have a similar goal and affect the same systems. Whether the modality used is light, sound, physical force, or some form of electromagnetic energy, the process is the same. This paper will describe a method of acupressure that can be used to enhance any form of energetic therapy. Acupuncture is thousands of years old, with acupressure being a more recent innovation. The basis of the approach described here is to use acupressure prior to an energetic therapy to help clear meridian blockages in order to enhance [...]

First of all, I want to thank Dr. Herrmann (the Chairman), and the Board of Directors of the “International Physicians Society for Biocybernetic Medicine”, for the great privilege of addressing this esteemed audience. I would also like to sincerely thank Mr. Rasche and the entire staff of the Med-Tronik firm for the excellent support they have given me and Occidental Institute affiliated practitioners, over the past fifteen and a half years. I apologize for not speaking in German. Even though my name is German, I was born in Canada [...]

Over the summer and fall of 1994, Dr. Walter Sturm, along with the OIRF staff and directors began a project that was intended as an ongoing project to publish the information and experience of the many affiliated international and North American practitioners of Biological Medicine (a term coined by Occidental Institute in the mid-1980s as the organization moved back into Canada and became the non-profit Research Foundation). The goal was to become a “bridge” between the innovation, information and development in this field in Germany and English speaking practitioners [...]

Operating Instructions for the "Remedy Information Transfer Unit" (RITU) This instruction manual was researched, developed and written by Dr. Walter D. Sturm, one of the founding Directors of Occidental Institute Research Foundation, and was initially published in January, 1987.

However, the information gathered here provides the detailed and precise instructions (as only Dr. Sturm could do!) on how to produce digital copies of the input remedy information. This procedure can still [...]

I am pleased to announce the introduction of a new publication for those learning the EAV-type point and medication testing methods. What I have called the “EAV Mini-Manual” is a careful and precise compilation of the information that is used in the traditional EAV measurement approach using the distal (or Ting) points. Then, to reflect the more modern approaches used for example by Dr. Simon Yu in his Acupuncture Meridian Assessment method, the same detailed information is organized for each Control Measurement Point (CMP) and a few of the Extra Points of Dr. [...]
