The Central Pillar in the New Medicine of the 21st Century In spite of indisputable advances with the treatment of many illnesses like allergies, rheumatic illnesses, respiratory illnesses, acute and chronic pain or neurological pathologies, school medicine pushes on the boundaries with their focus on medication therapies and surgical interventions. Thus it is urgently necessary to more strongly pursue, as already known, the innovative complementary medical therapy approaches. In the future the [complementary medical approaches] will no longer stand in contrast to classical school medicine, but [...]

Preface  In this article I would like to pass on some of the observations that I have been able to make during the past thirty-eight years. Having reached the age of seventy I am in the lucky position of being able to choose to retire if I so wish but before doing so I would like to share some of the things that I have learned over the years. Having completed a five year training in classical Chinese acupuncture I was lucky to be invited by Dr. Reinhold Voll [...]

Using Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy Allergy is one of those topics that generate a great deal of debate. There is even disagreement about basics, such as what allergies are, the mechanisms of allergy reactions, methods of testing, etc. I am not going to address these issues here, as there are volumes of information available. Rather, I am going to present a brief description of a method of therapy I’ve developed by combining and expanding two separate approaches. Sensitivity Removal Technique (SRT) [...]

Congratulations to OIRF! As Occidental Institute moves into 2012 we are celebrating our Fortieth (yeah, that is our 40th) Anniversary Year. Version 1.0 of Occidental Institute opened its doors in Weston, Ontario Canada on July 2, 1972. On a personal level I just cannot imagine where all those years have gone. I guess the old saying about “time flies when you’re having fun” must apply, since there are so many exciting and wonderful memories to look back on. Dr. Walter D. Sturm *1944 - †2004 From a professional perspective [...]

POINTS OF INTEREST According to Chinese metaphysical studies, everything is connected within the whole universe…….between Heaven, Man/Human and Earth. The study of Feng Shui is the environmental examination of Chi/Qi between Heaven and Earth – Time and Space, and by incorporating the principles of Balance and Harmony. The Christmas celebration happens a few days after the Winter Solstice, when the Water energy is strongest – most Yin time of the year, which is reflected by the cold temperature outside, and the shortest daylight hours during the day. In order [...]

Here is my annual article for “The Bridge”. It is short, but as always the information is priceless. I owe this information to Dr Joseph Hulme, an American needle acupuncturist. Dr. Hulme was approached by the USA military to design a swift, reliable and effective analgesic sequence for the acute, traumatic and painful situations so often found by soldiers in battle zones. I have used this sequence on myself for acute sciatica, on my staff for migraine headaches and on my patients in both acute and chronic situations. I [...]

In this article I would like to present some interesting observations made during the course of this year. Before discussing these observations a broad description of geopathic stress is presented in order to help orientate those readers who are less familiar with these concepts. Geopathic Stress A vexing question for the physician is why some patients, despite excellent and appropriate therapy, fail to respond to treatment or give only a marginal response. Sometimes there is a good response only to be followed by relapse; sometimes [...]

The Physical Basis of the BioResonance Method The triumphant progress of classical physics was possible with the understanding that the world is objectifiable, the smallest component is reducible, and all processes run off linearly and causally. This had considerable consequences for the world view: The sensual, emotional, spiritual, etc. areas were excluded from the scientific picture and thus the holistic approach was negated. Modern physics emphasizes against the holism of the world and shows that processes in general, and in particular in Biological Systems (BS), [...]

Complementary Medicine Diagnosis and Therapy Procedures What is Meaningful and Up-to-Date? There is absolutely no question that classical school [orthodox] medicine is unsurpassed in acute [emergency] care. Treatment of a bone fracture will not be successful with globuli or Bach Flowers. Now and then however doubts are expressed whether its exclusiveness claim for maintenance and/or recovery of our health can remain even today. In this article, it will be demonstrated that for chronic illnesses the symptom related approach of school medicine is not always carefully [...]

An Introduction to the MORA and BioResonance Workshop Friday June 10 and Saturday, June 11, 2011 * Penticton, BC Canada Dr. Brian L. MacCoy, NMD * This seminar was postponed after Dr. MacCoy's sudden passing and was later presented by Dr. S. Craig Wagstaff. Pre-diagnostic concepts Chronic degenerative diseases clearly dominate the percentage of patients seen by the biological medicine professional. The inevitable onset of degenerative disease associated with a lifestyle of AMA monopolized synthetic health care should catch no one by surprise. Degenerative processes in humans have catapulted [...]
