How often are we asked to give our “evidence base” for the very effective treatments that we give? How often are the people who ask these questions really not interested in what we do and only see us as inconvenient irritants to their version of the truth and as competition that should be rooted out? I believe that there is a place for empirical medicine along side of conventional medicine. Especially when conventional medicine does not have a safe or effective treatment, like for example [...]

Borreliosis –in the media it is raged like a deadly beast as incurable. Nevertheless, most information which circulates to such an extent about this illness is absolutely wrong, claims our author Marlene Kunold. For many years she has specialized in the treatment of chronic borreliosis and is known for her highly successful cures. For raum&zeit she explains how she proceeds with the treatment of this new plague, and at the same time what meaning a new light therapy has. Borreliosis patients [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

The Bürgi Principle* is promising to use and to combine Rhus Toxicodendron (Toxicodendron quercifolium) The regulation ability of our organism depends on the balance between proteolysis and protease inhibition. For examination of the actual state of tissue buildup and reduction in the dynamic equilibrium of the organism, a permanent subclinical inflammation readiness exists in the different tissues [Overview in 5, 6]. Tumors and chronic illnesses do not adhere to this: Where at first for its development and propagation the defense system has to “go blind”, [...]

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 [...]

Email Received from Dr. Michael Galle, Germany; February 11, 2012 [Following] is a new interesting publication from the Nobel laureate Montagnier which deals with the method of MORA. He used the method according to Benveniste (and therefore the method of MORA, which Benveniste copied after Citro had talked with him) for detection of very weak electromagnetic signals from diluted and swirled DNA-Sequences. The work shows that extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields can be transferred by a simple electrode and a conventional amplifier, just like MORA. The second author (Aissa) worked [...]
