Dear OIRF Members: Following is a copy of the information and instruction sheet that I use concerning the alkalizing mineral powder (called Bio Terrain) I recommend to my patients. We all know that almost everyone in this modern day world is primarily acidic and needs to reduce that acidity to assist with all of our diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. For those patients that are “not too bad” (not overly acidic) I find this basic approach works very well prior to other stronger treatment methods. I have found that attention [...]

“I call upon our aches and pains for assistance; for they are our friends, and give good counsel.” - Goethe (1749-1842) In November of 2003 I attended an OIRF tour that included a two-day seminar with Dr. Heinrich Kremer, MD. One of the many statements of Dr. Kremer’s that impacted me during his presentations was his realization that, after eight and a half years of doing research for pharmaceutical interests, “all autoimmune illnesses and cancers were caused by toxins.” Dr. Kremer further stated that the body’s number one priority [...]

 Introduction Resonance Therapy was developed by Helmut W. Schimmel, MD, DMD. Dr. Schimmel, probably the most important natural doctor of the last 40 years, contributed much to the better understanding of natural healing methods as well as their diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. His path led him to a critical analysis of natural healing diagnostic methods and finally to the measuring methods of Electro-Acupuncture. He was the inventor of different measuring procedures which he constantly developed and improved. But only the Photon Resonance Test (PRT), his last invention, moved him [...]

An Opinion Paper by Dr. med. Richard Kraßnigg, President of the International Society for Electro-Acupuncture According to Dr. Voll, Germany Each individual human being in the universe with his genetic design and his psychological and physically loaded biological data is a unique being. In the mechanistic medical model, one must “only” turn the correct “screw” for a disease and already health appears in the adjusted machinery of the body. Apparently the only question is with which tool is it turned? Even if at this point [...]

Better and earlier detecting of heart failure (heart insufficiency) and treating it naturally Heart failure is often diagnosed too late  Diagnosis of heart failure is still correlated with an unfavorable outcome in spite of our advanced state of knowledge in medicine and it could be compared to a serious tumor disease. This has not changed significantly within the past years in spite of the diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities. May promising developments such as inhibitors of phosphodiesterase or directly adrenergic positive stimulating substances have finally disappointed and many things indicate [...]
