electromagnetic therapy

Dear Dr. Stoll,

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with and helping so many people. Am looking forward to receiving your book.

You told someone recently that the 21st century may become the century of electromagnetism.

For the last decade especially mamy studies demonstrated the vast potential of this technology.

It's used commonly speeding up healing of broken bones, non-union fractures, and other types of musculo-skeletal problems.

One very intruiging aspect is the concept that it may act like a very powerful anti-oxidant, sopping up free radicals, and restoring body cells to a healthier state that are now more naturally resistant to disease.

Would like your input on its use for internal medical problems.

Specifically would like to know:

- how to determine for what conditions it can help,

- what to look for to see if a particular product really works, (double-blind tests are lacking)

- how to determine the best (gauss) strength to use, frequencies, etc.,

- and on safety, how to determine what is safe.

Thank you in advance for your answer to a complex question.

Shraga

Thanks, shraga.

The first thing I used at my centre, in this line, was a pulsed diathermy machine that worked by reversing the poolarity of the cells more than a million times a second. I didn't really learn how to use it most effectively BUT what I did learn was that it not only did no harm but would accelerate the healing/function of any internal organ I focused the heads on (liver, bladder, pelvic organs, lungs, etc.) [Hundreds of specific settings for different conditions.] Of course, any musculoskeletal condition responded.

There is a LOT of world research about this instrument since it has been around for at least 30 years.

References about electromagnetic medicine abound at Functional Medicine Update at www.fxmed.com and Dr Becker's works (example "The Body Electric"); "Your Electrovibratory Body" by Victor Beasley and Dr. Christopher Hills; "Vibrational Medicine" by Dr. Richard Gerber [most inclusive of the above] for starters.

Let us know what you learn.

Namaste`

Walt

I purchased some magnets in 1997. The inventor claimed they would make a person live forever. The magnets came in the form of cardboard rings, one worn on the front of the left pinky, one on the back of the right pinky. The instructions were vague but claimed that if you wore the rings backwards you would become extremely sick. The inventor prescribed wearing them each night and taking them off in the morning. Apparently the magnets were extremely strong. The first time I used them, I had such an influx of energy that I could not go to sleep. I also was hungry. In addition my temperature rose to the extent that I had to take off all my clothes and turn on the air conditioner to keep cool. I could not sleep. Time had progressed to the early AM hours and I had to work the next morning. Having worn them for two hours, I removed them. The energizing effect persisted for another hour. Suddenly my system crashed. A indescribably horrible feeling of weakness and nausea swept over me. I have never felt such anxiety as I did then. I wept like a child for no reason. It seemed to last forever but was probably just for an hour or two. Finally I went to sleep. I succeeded in getting just one hour of sleep before I had to go to work. I likened the effect to that of a drug: it had a definite high and low. Though they had cost me a pretty penny I cut the rings apart and threw them away.

One of the stories in the archive was full of praise for magnets but it included almost as an afterthought 'I have not been able to sleep without them'. I bet this is the kind of thing that has been tested before by scientists. I wish I knew where to find the results of the studies so I could find out more about them.

Thanks, Phil.

Your note emphasizes that magnets really do do something. You are particularly susceptible to magnetic fields.

There is plenty of research out there for you to find even though the real science of magnetic effects on humans is in it's infancy.

Let us know what you learn.

I'll read about magnets with interest, but no further experimentation! I doubt I am more susceptible to magnetic fields than the next person. I think these were just very strong magnets. When I applied them to steel, the side which attracted stuck fast and was very difficult to remove. The side which repelled could not be touched directly to the steel, though I used all my strength.

I wonder about why the effects on the body lingered after the magnets were removed. I know that if you repeatedly rub a magnet against a piece of steel in the direction of the polarization, the steel temporarily becomes magnetic. I have also seen steel temporarily become magnetic just from being exposed to a magnet. I wonder if this is somehow related to the lingering effects I experienced.

Still waiting for your book, as interlibrary loan seems to take forever.
