Reflections on the Occidental Institute Symposium and Advanced Biological Medicine By Gary M. Verigin, DDS, CTN (Symposium Lecturer) One of the best things about attending the Occidental Institute’s 40th anniversary symposium in Vancouver, BC, this past June was re-connecting with Carolyn Winsor-Sturm. She’s the Institute’s managing director and CEO, and also an old friend and mentor. In fact, my journey in biological dental medicine began with her and her late husband, Dr. Walter Sturm. The Occidental Institute Research Foundation (OIRF) was the first organization in [...]

In previous contributions to “The Bridge” I have written mainly about EAV techniques. In this article I would like to talk about the possibilities offered by the Index scales of the VEGATEST. I am very aware that most readers probably use the VEGATEST rather than EAV. Neither test is superior to the other but they both complement each other very well and a well-rounded practitioner should be able to handle both tests with equal facility. EAV has the advantage of dealing with raw measurement data [...]

As the 30th anniversary of my practice approaches, I have been reviewing the different concepts of treatment and the modalities I have used over the years. While some have come and gone, others have been recognized as valid and have evolved into a sustaining part of my practice. One of the most valued and helpful concepts I have discovered is the identification of blocks to healing. In the beginning of my practice I didn’t always understand why some patients were just not responding to my [...]

Oxygen Therapies – A Scientific Comparison Traditional Oxygen Therapies Compared With The Progressive Principle of Spirovitalisation Survival time without solid food: 40 days; without liquid: 4 days; without oxygen: 4 minutes Introduction Science tells us that no higher life forms can exist without oxygen. This demonstrates the crucial significance of a continuous supply of the "elixir of life", oxygen, for all higher organisms. Adequate availability of oxygen is the prerequisite for all metabolic processes associated with the production of energy, a [...]

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 [...]

Expansion of the Therapy System with Psychokinesiology and Systemic Family Therapy Casuistry of Cystic Fibrosis Treatment For about 20 years, I am an enthusiastic BioResonance user and I can confirm with my experience that BioResonance has a very important value in the spectrum of natural healing procedures and over and over again therapy results are reached which seem nearly inconceivable with our school [orthodox] medical thinking (Figure 1). Holistic Medicine = a Synopsis from: University medicine Western natural healing Eastern natural [...]

BOOK REVIEW WHY WOMEN IN CHINA DO NOT GET BREAST CANCER I had no alternative but to die or to try to find a cure for myself. I am a scientist – surely there was a rational explanation for this cruel illness that affects one in 12 women in the UK? I had suffered the loss of one breast, and undergone radiotherapy. I was now receiving painful chemotherapy, and had been seen by some of the country's most eminent specialists. But, deep down, I felt certain I was facing [...]

Every body and every substance radiates energy. At the same time they show an individual, distinctive characteristic and wavelength. BioResonance Therapy functions on these qualities. With the help of biophysics it explores electromagnetic fields and energy frequencies, and develops methods in order to utilize the oscillations diagnostically and therapeutically. Definition of BioResonance BioResonance is designated as a form of regulative medicine which developed in the middle of the last century, and which is based on physical observations and experiences. With the assistance of a therapy [...]

Complementary medicine does not usually treat the symptoms, but begins with the causes. Thus diagnostics which permit a look behind the symptom picture on the surface acquire a corresponding relevance. A useful diagnostic and therapeutic tool is the Electro-Acupuncture according to Voll. It enables the technical measurement capture of functional sequences and energetic states in the organism and the individually determinable application of therapeutically effective substances. Definition of Electro-Acupuncture according to Voll The Electro-Acupuncture according to Voll (EAV) medical diagnostic system is a comprehensive, complementary [...]
