Revolutionary! June Commentary and Links June 2026 Dear friends, colleagues and supporters, In the early spring of 2015 as I began developing my lectures on balance and resonance, it was pretty clear that it would take a paradigm shift in perception for the methods and procedures that are so well known to us as energy medicine practitioners to become part of standard medical practice. That shift from chemistry to physics, or from defeating a symptom allopathically to balancing the energetic household seemed far too esoteric – or perhaps too [...]

15 May 2026 Dear friends, colleagues and supporters, It has been a busy few months since I last had the opportunity to setup a commentary or forward some of the interesting current links from the English-language journals and research. But, busy it has been. One of my major projects since OIRF.com went live last September has been completed (for now). The newly revised, reformatted and updated version of the Praxis2Practice website has now also gone live. As you look over this month’s translated articles and information, I invite you [...]

16 February 2026 Dear friends, colleagues and supporters, “In the bleak midwinter”, as one of our Christian hymns begins, we often turn to gray thoughts during the gray days of February. Over the past 4 to 5 years, I’ve struggled to keep up with all the advancing technology. Learning about websites with categories and tags and uploading vs downloading along with correct ways to format for digital presentation instead of on printed paper. During this time of “supposed to be retired” (in my ‘70s) I’ve felt compelled to preserve [...]

 . . . With Progress Into the Future November 2025 My dear friends, colleagues and supporters, I must admit as we approach the holidays and the end of another year, I found sitting down to write this monthly commentary challenging. There are still so many aspects of the virus and political situations that are discouraging and negative, that I went looking for something – anything – that would be positive and encouraging as we approach the change into another season and another year. It was a challenge, but well [...]

September 2025 My dear friends, colleagues and supporters, I simply cannot think of any greater news nor a more exciting announcement. After four years of research, recovery and transition, I am so very pleased to announce that the recently completed (well for now, anyway) OIRF.COM website has gone live! Welcome! My gratitude is unbounding for my tech support, Chad Jerrett of JR Direct IT & Marketing Services in Delta, BC Canada. Chad initially worked for OIRF as my assistant back in the mid-1990s prior to our move to the [...]

13 May 2025 There is one event that I always look forward to each spring, and that is making the journey to St. Louis to participate in Dr. Simon Yu’s Introductory Acupuncture Meridian Assessment seminar and workshop. It’s a long day of travel and flying each direction for me from our beautiful little resort community in the interior of British Columbia – but well worth it. Attended this spring by nearly 20 docs and dentists, this session was exceptional. I was able to present all three of my lectures [...]

Main Focus Invisible Attackers Living with Inanimate Nature For those in a hurry To prevent disease, it is not a matter of killing germs, but rather of creating a healthy environment and a strong immune system in the body. For example, it can help to cleanse the detoxification and excretory organs such as the liver, intestines, kidneys and skin through naturopathic drainage and detoxification therapies. Viruses and bacteria have already existed for millions of years and are part of life. So that people can still [...]

The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.” – Cicero, 55 BC March 2025 My Dear Colleagues, Friends and Supporters, Well, that old American shampoo saying of “wash, rinse, repeat” certainly applies today just as that Santanya/Churchill quote about “those who fail to [...]

In Memory Heinrich Rossmann, MD Dr. H. Rossmann was one of the few doctors who also cooperated as an expert on behalf of the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians with Dr. Reinhold Voll, the founder of electroacupuncture (EAV). Now he has died shortly before his 90th birthday. Since 1970 he has been involved with EAV, found a special methodological approach, which he continued with curiosity, imagination and the joy of experimentation. Together with Dr. N. Mayer, among others, he developed the HOMOPATH© test program, today the most modern [...]

Birthdays, Philosophy & Exit Strategies With the culmination of the 101st Birthday celebrations and activities for my beloved Mom Catharine, I’ve once again found myself wandering through the newsletters and ever changing information about the virus, the vaccines and the possible resolutions for the health of our families and patients. I’ve stated it before that without a doubt, this is a unique time in history – for conventional medicine, so-called alternative medicine, politics, economics and society as a whole. I am not so prideful and [...]
