Excerpt from "Feature Therapy" by Ken Wianko MD.,FRCS(C), FACS
In recent years, Magnetic Field Therapy - or "Magneto Therapy" as it is referred to in modern medical terminology, has attracted a great deal of interest and is the subject of much discussion all around the world.
Although many people still regard the success of this treatment method as something
miraculous, there is in fact a very simple explanation for its effectiveness and the way
in which it works.
The treatment helps the body, in a natural way, to regain its
self - healing electromagnetic balance.
Why: The entire body,
each of its organs and every cell in these organs, is affected by electromagnetism.
Cellular function and associated regulatory processes, as well as the function and health
of body tissues, are all controlled by electromagnetic impulses.
It logically follows that magnetism and its effect on the body's electromagnetic activity
play a major role in health and in disease.
In his book entitled "Magnetic Deficiency Syndrome," Dr. Nakagowa stressed that if these electromagnetic impulses are disrupted or are lacking, this can give rise to number of health problems such as: stress symptoms, mental disturbances, headaches, arthritis, rheumatism, muscle pain, osteoporosis, chronic fatigue, allergies, insomnia, inflammations, circulatory disorders, bowel disorders, digestive problems and many other degenerative problems which cause ill health.
Is this therapy a "Universal Cure All", i.e. an "all-purpose treatment method of the future"?
In the search for such a broadly effective treatment, there is none that deserves this designation more than Magneto Therapy. At any rate, as far as successful pain treatment is concerned, it has been found that seven out of ten patients who received this treatment were completely freed of their pain. This result is just as good as that obtained by traditional medicine. Above all, Magneto Therapy produces no harmful side effects, is not addictive does not interfere with other therapies, and it is not expensive.
Researchers have established beyond doubt that Magnetic Field Therapy rebalances altered metabolic functions, that cause pain, edema (tissue swelling), excess acid in the tissues and lack of oxygen in the cells, by initiating tissue healing with consequent pain relief. Skin calcification, the cause of skin aging and wrinkles, disappears. Joint mobility increases and muscle becomes more flexible. Digestion and elimination improve, prostates shrink and kidneys eliminate body wastes more effectively. Mental function increases, energy levels go up and sleep is better.
Tests carried out with various organic substances in a magnetic field have shown that
the lifetime of these substances is extended.
Because it stimulates the body's free radical scavenger and antioxidant system, Magneto
Therapy is reported to be effective in counteracting degenerative processes causing heart
and circulatory diseases, arthritis and auto-immune illness, as well as neuro-degenerative
and allergic afflictions.
Many illnesses can be caused by "stress", but this risk factor can be greatly
influenced by administering Magneto Therapy prophylactically both during the day and at
night. When Magnetic Field Therapy is applied during the night, it has a calming and
sleep-promoting effect on the brain and the entire body, because it naturally stimulates
the production of the hormone melatonin.
Higher melatonin levels in the body reduce stress, help to counteract the aging process
and protect against infection. Magneto Therapy is often used to promote healing.
The Bio Medici device, which has proved its effectiveness since 1988, is the ideal means for administering the therapy as described by Dr.Wianko. He personally owns a Bio Medici Magnetic Field Therapy Device.
Dr. W. Philpott is chairman of the Bio-Electro Magnetic Institute. He is psychiatrist and neurologist, and the author of "Brain Allergies" and "Victory over Diabetes". Excerpt from "Health Revelations" by Dr. Atkins
The human body itself is an electromagnetic machine. Each body cell has a positive and a negative field and physical and mental functions are controlled by electromagnetic impulses from the brain and central nervous system. Moreover, all life - plant and animal, including human - exists in and responds to the magnetic field of the Earth.
For instance, Earth's magnetism activates the enzyme system in fruits and vegetables that causes normal ripening.
In just the past decade, biomedical experts have begun to realize that, since magnetic energy influences our health, it can be used to intentionally improve our health, by using the Magnetic Field Therapy device.
Indeed, enough is already known, to outline some important facts. As electromagnetic systems, our bodies exist in balance between negative and positive magnetic forces. The Earth's crust exerts a powerful negative magnetic field at night, while during the day we experience the sun's opposite, positive magnetic forces.
It may surprise you to learn that the magnetic field of the Earth can be duplicated and enhanced with the aid of magnetic field therapy devices.
The pineal gland in the center of the head controls hormones, enzymes and immune function, and is itself a magnetic organ containing magnetite crystals. It is actually sensitive to magnetic energy - stimulation and produces its most important and characteristic substance, the sleep hormone melatonin, almost entirely during the night. In turn, the human growth hormone, which is produced by the hypothalamus as we sleep, appears to be strongly influenced by melatonin.
Without discussing the wide range of illnesses - from arthritis and arteriosclerosis to schizophrenia and sleep disorders - which can be treated with a qualified Magnetic Field Therapy device, I'd like to illustrate how magnetic energy can stimulate the pineal gland's production of melatonin and the hypothalamus production of human growth hormone.
As we age, we produce less of these essential hormones. But high levels of melatonin are necessary for adequate sleep, and human growth hormone is a controlling factor in hair, skin and muscle mass. Its decline is responsible for many of the effects of aging. So it may be no exaggeration to say that electromagnetic stimulation of the pineal gland could slow the aging process. I have seen many people (including myself) whose hair and skin became healthier as a result of Magnetic Therapy.
Some people show signs of hair returning to its normal color. Because of the increase
of the human growth hormone, older subjects typically show an increased rate of hair and
nail growth.
There are two simple bedtime - nighttime uses of Magnetic Therapy: You may place the
therapy device under your pillow with the appropriate adjustment, so that your head is in
the magnetic field, or even better place the therapy device beside you, as close as
possible to your solar plexus area. This will keep your entire body in the magnetic field.
The idea of Electro Magnetic Therapy may seem novel and perhaps even disarmingly simple, but I can assure you, that my experiences with several thousand patients support its very real effect. Moreover, the Magnetic Field Therapy carries no health risks.
Electromagnetism and its effect on the body may be one of the most exciting scientific breakthroughs in current research. Since 1989, when the FDA was among the sponsors of the first Conference on Emerging Electromagnetic Medical Technology, it has approved an Institutional Review Board for the research projects of the Bio-Electro Magnetic Institute.
