Energy Therapy Technologies: New Waves of Healing
Bärbel Aldridge, ND and Doug Aldridge, MA; Energy Therapists

Energy therapy devices apply various forms of highly specific energetic input to the human body to increase vitality. All these devices rely on the same biological principle: living systems operate within characteristic frequency ranges. Energy therapy aims to support the immune system, to promote healing processes, and to help the body regulate its functions by applying natural frequencies in a way that the body can respond to positively.

Energy therapy has a truly amazing range of applications. A session can target specific organs because each device operates within a different set of energetic parameters. Some practitioners have been attracted to careers in energy therapy because they had life-changing experiences after receiving this therapy. A Lyme disease clinic in a northeastern state features Ondamed® therapy in its protocols because patients have experienced dramatic benefit from Ondamed® therapy in combating this scourge. A smoking cessation clinic in Denmark has used Ondamed® therapy to help over 1,300 people quit smoking. Appropriate energy therapy can also enhance the effectiveness of other therapies for many acute illnesses and chronic health conditions.

One simple energy therapy device introduced about ten years ago applies a mild, intermittent electrical current, which, claims its inventor, is too weak to penetrate or harm human cells but strong enough to electrocute microorganisms in the soft tissues of the body. This alleged vulnerability of pathogens to a current that seems harmless to human cells illustrates a basic principle of energy therapy: different organisms respond to different energies. The energy form may be electrical or magnetic; it can be ultraviolet or infrared light; or the source of energy input can be electromagnetic.

The Ondamed®, an “electromagnetic pulse biofeedback system” in the words of electronics engineer Rolf Binder, its inventor, is an ingenious device that enables the trained therapist to select input frequencies on the basis of unconscious biofeedback from the client. We can attest to the effectiveness and safety of the Ondamed®, which is an approved secondary therapeutic device that we have been using successfully for over a year. Ondamed® “is the end result of 25 years of research in biophysical medical testing and therapy,” according to company literature. “Binder found that he could tap into the body’s electromagnetic molecular communication, thereby facilitating the natural healing process. Medical professionals worldwide have been using Ondamed® with remarkable success for over a decade.”

Energy therapy can be divided into two categories: frequencies intended to counteract pathogenic effects of microorganisms, and healing waves that support the healthful function of the body’s own organs and systems. Our experience with the Ondamed® device includes both of these therapeutic modes. When a client asks for help with digestive discomfort, for example, we can apply a sequence of microorganism-specific frequencies obtained from monitoring the client through biofeedback. Or, in another mode, the therapist can select from a range of waves that are known from Binder’s research to support the vitality of specific organs. A session focusing on digestive discomfort might consist of both modes of therapy, depending on the biofeedback response. We can also adjust the intensity of the applied frequency, again using biofeedback to attune the therapy to the client.

Because the frequency output of the Ondamed® is delivered through applicators that deliver pulsed electromagnetic fields rather than an electrical current, it is not necessary to have applicator-to-skin contact. Since the field penetrates clothing as well as the tissues of the body, there is no need for the client to disrobe. The therapy itself is pleasant, and often involves deep relaxation, which in itself produces additional benefits.

Energy therapy can be used to target specific issues. The Ondamed® Osteoporosis Protocol offers hope to the growing number of people in our society who are threatened by bone loss. As we age, many factors conspire to upset the delicate balance between bone building factors and bone weakening ones. Systemic acidity can be an important contributor to bone loss when there is insufficient calcium assimilation from dietary intake. The body will sacrifice the health of any other system in order to maintain the pH of the blood at a healthful level. It will even mine the skeleton for calcium to buffer the blood when assimilation of this vital mineral is inadequate from dietary sources. The unique Ondamed® osteoporosis therapy supports the body functioning normally to maintain strong bones and teeth.

Energy therapy has also been reported to help victims of addiction lose their cravings, greatly facilitating withdrawal. Many former smokers number among those who attest to the effectiveness of Ondamed® therapy. In fact, many have found the Stop Smoking Protocol so effective that they were able to quit almost effortlessly after just one session. And that session took less than an hour and cost less than they had been spending to pay for a month’s smoking. If someone you care about has a problem with tobacco, please encourage them to get help.

We at Healing Ways are very enthusiastic about the benefits that energy therapy enables us to offer our clients. Ondamed® therapy has proven to be a potent tool in the array of evaluative and therapeutic techniques we offer. It is wonderful to see this advanced, natural approach to prevention and healing helping our clients experience increased vitality and an enhanced quality of life.
