Energy Medicine: Current Status and Future Perspectives

This paper makes numerous assertions about human biofields, chakras, biophotons, etc. as if they were generally accepted by medicine.  The fact that scientists reject these ideas is not mentioned.  It is unfortunate the Wake Forest University is supporting such nonsense.

Abstract

Current practices in allopathic medicine measure different types of energy in the human body by using quantum field dynamics involved in nuclear medicine, radiology, and imaging diagnostics. Once diagnosed, current treatments revert to biochemistry instead of using biophysics therapies to treat the disturbances in subtle energies detected and used for diagnostics. Quantum physics teaches us there is no difference between energy and matter. All systems in the human being, from the atomic to the molecular level, are constantly in motion-creating resonance. This resonance is important to understanding how subtle energy directs and maintains health and wellness in the human being. Energy medicine (EM), whether human touch or device-based, is the use of known subtle energy fields to therapeutically assess and treat energetic imbalances, bringing the body’s systems back to homeostasis (balance). The future of EM depends on the ability of allopathic medicine to merge physics with biochemistry. Biophoton emissions as well as signal transduction and cell signaling communication systems are widely accepted in today’s medicine. This technology needs to be expanded to include the existence of the human biofield (or human energy field) to better understand that disturbances in the coherence of energy patterns are indications of disease and aging. Future perspectives include understanding cellular voltage potentials and how they relate to health and wellness, understanding the overlap between the endocrine and chakra systems, and understanding how EM therapeutically enhances psychoneuroimmunology (mind–body) medicine.

Excerpts:

"Energy medicine (EM) has been defined as a branch of integrative medicine that studies the science of therapeutic applications of subtle energies. For centuries, allopathic or Western medicine has investigated the body’s internal systems—from organs, tissues, and cells to the current understanding of hormones and peptides. While modern medicine focuses primarily on physiology, the human organism has many aspects that are not physical—aspects that generate and absorb massive amounts of information. Physiology interacts with its environment via ambient fields such as light, sound, electricity, magnetism, and with all other living organisms to generate massive amounts of information in the form of energy fields. Voltage potentials (VPs) across cell membranes direct ion flux, modulating cell function. VPs are involved in the therapeutic effects of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) on immune function and tissue regeneration, on organ-associated frequencies instrumental in the endocrine/chakra systems, and on the regulatory mechanisms of neurotransmitter conversion of external fields into chemical or electrical energy involved in mind–body function known as psychoneuroimmunology (PNI). The subtle energies involved in these systems exhibit the internal and external aspects of the human being described as the human biofield or human energy field (HEF). To both understand and treat the entire human being, current practices in Western medicine must expand concepts of healing to incorporate physics of the HEF into modern medical practice. Knowledge of the existence of and effects on the HEF will determine the future of medicine by opening new medical paradigms, integrating Western medicine with Eastern medical practices that have been time tested for thousands of years."

"Once the diagnosis using quantum mechanics is completed, current treatments revert to biochemistry instead of using treatments involving the subtle energies that made the original diagnosis. Quantum physics teaches us there is no difference between energy and matter. All systems in an organism, from the atomic to the molecular level, are constantly in motion-creating resonance. This resonance is important to understanding how electromagnetism (radiation/light) can have different effects on the body. While all matter resonates, there are signature resonant frequencies, emitting unique characteristic signals from the nuclei of their respective atoms.5,6 Most biomedical researchers agree that EMFs surround and flow through the body in the form of electricity, with the heart registering the highest electrical activity, emitting 2.5 W, producing 40 to 60 times more electricity than the brain.7 The electrical activity of the heart and nervous systems interacts and affects one another, with the heart being correlated with the highest magnetic activity.8

"Classic body systems include the nervous/enteric system, the circulatory system, the immune/lymphatic, digestive system, skeletal system, respiratory system, integumentary, endocrine, urinary/renal, and reproductive systems. Each of these systems is a channel for energy communication."

"EM is the use of known subtle energy fields to therapeutically assess and treat energetic imbalances, bringing the body’s systems (neurological, cardiovascular, respiratory, skeletal, endocrinal, emotional/psychological, etc) back to homeostasis. Knowledge of the existence of the HEF is the first step to understanding integral physiology, which unites body, mind, and spirit to treat the entire human being—not just the physiology.21 The HEF has been described as a complex dynamic of EMFs that include individual oscillating electrically charged moving particles such as ions, biophotons, and molecules, which create standing waves.22 Disturbances in the coherence of energy patterns of the HEF are indications of disease and aging.23 When these energy particles are exposed to EM in the form of coherent energy patterns (eg, PEMF, vibrational medicine, Polarity Therapy, acupuncture, Healing Touch, etc), the disturbed resonant patterns return to their original, coherent, harmonic, and vibrational state (homeostasis). If Western medicine applied the principles of modern physics, it would understand human beings are composed of information (energy) interacting with other energy (environment) to profoundly impact our physical and emotional health. The HEF has been investigated in scientific laboratories where photon emissions were detected using photometers and color filter.24–27 Human energy vibrations were recorded at 1000 times higher in frequency than the electrical signals of nerve and muscle, with continuous dynamic modulation unlike the pulsing signals of the nervous system.23 Energy in the HEF is typically referred to as subtle energy,28 which is electromagnetic in nature. It is a system of wave-particle matter, transmitting and receiving vibrational information governing the physical matter of the body. Healing is achieved by directing coherent, harmonic energy into distortions caused by stressors and disease."

"Laboratory research with in vivo (animal) and in vitro (cell and tissue cultures) has shown important effects caused by low-frequency or weak EMF therapies, causing changes in cell proliferation; alterations in membrane structure and function; changes in nucleic acids, protein phosphorylation, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP synthesis); as well as entrainment of brain rhythms and conditioned brain response."

"All cells produce EMFs because the human body produces complex electrical activity in all the body’s 210 different cell types. Neurons, endocrine cells, and muscle cells are all referred to as “excitable cells.” These cells produce current (via electron transfer); magnetic field (via moving charges); a pulsed frequency; as well as pH, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and light (via biophotons).35"

"There are several modalities of EM that interact with the subtle energy of the body. These include, but are not limited to, PEMF therapy, Polarity Therapy, acupuncture, Healing Touch, Therapeutic Touch, Reiki, homeopathy, Qi Gong, and applied Kinesiology. New medical paradigms can bridge the gap between conventional/allopathic and EM."

"Research shows PEMF at extra low frequencies (ELFs) is beneficial to immune system modulation40 as well as tissue regeneration.32"

"Acupuncture can be considered an electromagnetic phenomenon due to the ionic charge between 2 acupuncture points. This has been demonstrated by Mussat and others.56–58 Acupuncture needles with 1 metal (copper, silver, bronze, or an alloy) for the shaft and another metal for the handle, form tiny batteries.9 Some acupuncture therapies use additional electrical stimulation (2–4 Hz) applied to the needles. From this electrical perspective, each organ in the body is like a battery housed in a sac of electrolytes, with a positive potential on the surface of the sac that is the aggregate result of electrical processes in the tissues of the organs.9"

"Acupuncture is considered a wiring system in the body, as is the analog perineural nervous system,63 and ion transfer within blood plasma.64"

(Table I lists "Frequencies Associated With Normal Organ Function."  For example, brain is 70-78 MHz, liver 55-60 MHz.)

"Touch therapies work using touch, interaction, and certain protocols to modulate energy imbalances in the HEF. Polarity Therapy, Healing Touch, Reiki, Cranial-Sacral Therapy, Trager, Bowen, and Brennan Healing Science all use similar techniques for bringing the HEF back to homeostasis. The subtle energy of the HEF is easily modulated by the therapist’s hands. The client and practitioner work together using breathing techniques to move stagnant or blocked energy from the cells, across the tissues and through the organs. Human touch therapies are patient–practitioner oriented, where both the giver and receiver of the energy treatment must work in tandem for beneficial results to occur. The practitioner grounds and centers himself/herself, meaning all thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations are neutralized. During optimal healing states, our bodies resonate at certain frequencies (0.3–100 Hz), which correlate with delta, theta, alpha, and beta brain waves66 (see Table 2).

"Touch therapies bring distorted frequencies of brain waves, organ resonance, and endocrine/chakra systems back into balance by modulating the subtle energies of the HEF. Practitioners detect and manipulate the subtle energy and provide a resonating template for the patient’s biofield to follow."

"However, the idea of a cellular and molecular global communication system involving energy fields is beyond the central dogma of Western medicine."

"Jerry Tennant, MD, reports that a -50 mV energy state is necessary for maintaining good health, and -70 mV is optimal. Without this balanced VP, aging and chronic disease occurs.65 This baseline can be achieved through healthy diet and keeping the body’s subtle energy balanced."

"The pathway from the physical body through the hormones to the psychological and emotional body is through the endocrine system, which is closely associated with the chakra system."

"Overlapping the endocrine system is the chakra system, which contains seven vital energy centers that run from the base of the spine to the top of the head, centered on the spinal column. They include the following: (1) root chakra—associated with the adrenals, (2) the sacral chakra—associated with the generatives (ovaries for women and testes for men), (3) the solar plexus chakra—associated with the pancreas, (4) the heart chakra—associated with the thymus, (5) the throat chakra—associated with the thyroid, (6) the third eye (located between the eyebrows)—associated with the pituitary gland, and (7) the crown chakra—associated with the pineal gland. Table 3 shows the correlation between the chakra location and its associated frequency.77

"Chakras produce energy vortices, which, when healthy, provide the energetic information by which all the systems of the body create a global information system. More empirical data are needed to determine whether EM therapies can heal endocrine diseases/distortions through the subtle energy in and around these glands."

"When the exchange of information between hormones, peptides, neurotransmitters, cells, tissues, organs, and regulatory systems in the body break downs, the most efficient way to bring this exchange of information back to health is through energy in the form of electromagnetic information. The directives of subtle energy treatments realign the HEF back to homeostasis or default mode. The HEF information system is similar to the interconnection of all global computers that form the Internet, with each cell representing an individual personal computer constantly uploading and downloading information to the World Wide Web. Once there is an understanding of the human being as a global information system of cell communication, signaling transduction, and energetic instruction sets, medicine will begin to treat the entire human, body–mind–spirit, with physics as the lowest common denominator, instead of biochemistry."

“Volumes of evidence have been published supporting the integration of mind–body medicine (PNI) with endocrine/chakra systems and EM for the benefit of Western medicine.”

“After discovering biophotons in the body, Popp et al., revealed the source of biophoton emissions is deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Here, he discovered DNA sends out a large range of frequencies, where certain frequencies were linked to certain functions.85 Popp reported that biophoton emissions are low intensity because they are involved in cell coordination and communication that could only occur at quantum levels.86 Once energy reaches a certain threshold, molecules begin to vibrate (resonate) in unison until they reach a level of coherence. The moment molecules reach this state of coherence, they take on certain qualities of quantum mechanics, including nonlocality, where they operate in tandem.”

“It is clear that science and technology have resulted in vastly improved understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of disease, but the emphasis on biochemical treatment over quantum/energy-based technology is creating adverse events in today’s health care.21 The healing of a patient must include more than the biology and chemistry of their physical body; by necessity, it must include the mental, emotional, and spiritual (energetic) aspects. EM is on the forefront of accepting this challenge.”
