As we approach the end of another year and suffer the loss of yet another pioneer, I felt compelled to repeat once again why those tried and true methods that Dr. Walter Sturm used in his busy but highly specialized practice continue to be recommended so strongly by OIRF. And primarily, it is because these are the methods and techniques that have allowed so many practitioners to build a long term successful practice! Join with me as I take you on a verbal tour of Dr. Sturm’s office and [...]

The Crisis in Biological Medicine in North America Over the past few years we have witnessed the continuing losses of the men and women who pioneered this field of Biological Medicine, and who have struggled so hard to find, research and apply those methods which are most effective. However even in light of these losses, I cannot yet see where the “next generation” – the “younger” practitioners – are stepping forward to take on the research work necessary to support the continuation of these methods into the future. Think [...]

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 [...]

Since 1995 I have been invited to deliver an annual lecture and seminar on aspects of bioresonance medicine. This invitation has come from the “Imedis” Centre for Intellectual Studies. The Imedis Company manufactures their own bioresonance equipment and software but perhaps more important they have, together with various Russian universities, conducted much investigation into bioresonance medicine and its effectiveness. Being invited to their annual conference has been highly educative and has given me a unique opportunity to observe developments in countries (Russian Federation) not normally associated with bioresonance. I [...]

A Personal Message from Theodore (Ted) J. Cole, DO, NMD, Ohio, USA Crowded rooms, same old hotels, boring lectures. Are you ready for the experience of a lifetime? Carolyn Winsor-Sturm and Occidental Institute Research Foundation announce their 39th Biological Medicine Tour to Germany. Carolyn and her staff have produced the longest running and best tour of its kind in existence. Carolyn is an insider of the German medical scene, and personally knows all of the major researchers and practitioners. She has built these relationships over years, and is able [...]

A Long-Standing, Covert Health Threat While mycoplasma was first identified in animals in 1898 and humans in 1932, its considerable health dangers and implications have only in the last several decades become more apparent. Existing somewhere between a virus and typical bacteria, mycoplasmas are known to be the smallest, free-living organisms in the world. Unlike traditional bacteria having solid cell walls, cell-wall deficient mycoplasmas take on many different shapes, making them sometimes difficult to identify in the laboratory and also difficult to culture. Cell wall deficient microorganisms are typically [...]

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 [...]

BOOK REVIEW Mitochondrial Pathology, Cancer and MORA® By Dr. med. dent. Gottfried Cornelissen English translation by Marguerite Lane, ND This text is primarily intended to be a continuation of Volume III Degeneration, Cancer and MORA. It is, however, possible to use it as a stand-alone text. The most recent research results, with their brand new theoretical approaches differ from all of the conventional ideas of Tumour treatment, and everyone can benefit from them. There are four main volumes, with a logical progression of topics: Volume 1 The New Diagnostic [...]
