Bioresonance uses electromagnetic frequencies to identify toxins, pathologies and coinfections within the body. Electrodes are placed on your skin and connected to a machine which reads energy wavelengths emitted by your body for diagnosis purposes.
A device known as the BICOM is approved by the FDA to relieve pain symptoms, though its efficacy for treating diseases like cancer remains uncertain. Proponents of the device often use pseudoscientific language that Edzard Ernst describes as an amusing attempt at making science sound plausible.
What is bioresonance?
Bioresonance therapy uses electrodes attached to the body to “read” energy wavelengths produced by cells. The device supposedly detects healthy frequencies before emitting counter frequencies to cancel out diseased ones allowing the body to heal itself. Bioresonance claims to be capable of diagnosing conditions like fibromyalgia, skin disorders and allergies as well as treating toxins, pathogens and coinfections.
At each session, electrodes are attached to your body and connected to a machine which reads your energy frequencies. The device reportedly detects “abnormal” frequencies like cancer or viruses before sending out counterfrequencys that cancel them out – ultimately helping restore harmony within your own frequencies so you can overcome stresses like environmental pollution and poor diet.
Although bioresonance‘s concept of detecting unhealthy energies based on their wavelength may seem sensible, research and evidence surrounding bioresonance are limited and inconclusive. The Advertising Standards Authority has previously received complaints concerning ads claiming this device could treat medical conditions including Crohn’s disease and skin conditions; however, evidence submitted as support did not address those listed within the advertisement.
Bioresonance presents several risks, with its primary threat being misled individuals into thinking it can treat serious conditions and postponing seeking professional medical care for too long – an especially grave threat in cases such as growing tumours and cancer, where even an inch could mean life or death.
People who trust bioresonance run the risk of paying for treatments which don’t pass scientific scrutiny, leading them down an unnecessary path toward inadequate care for illness or spending money on products and services which don’t work or which could even be harmful. The American Cancer Society advises against electromagnetic devices like bioresonance being used as treatment and has prosecuted those selling unproven electronic devices.
How does bioresonance work?
Bioresonance works on the principle that diseased cells emit different electromagnetic oscillations than healthy ones, which can be detected by a machine. Once detected, bioresonance utilizes destructive wave interference technology to match any unhealthy signals with electromagnetic frequencies that cancel them out using destructive wave interference – which claims it to be noninvasive and painless; however, each session begins and ends with cleaning all electrodes on your body with 700 alcohol by your therapist before and after each treatment session.
Electrodes connected to a computer read energy wavelengths coming out of the body in order to help diagnose illness, and create an antidote frequency that counteracts any negative wavelengths emitted by your body in order to restore balance and allow healing processes to take place within.
Bioresonance therapy sessions typically last 45-60 minutes and are painless and non-invasive, according to researchers. Clients must hold onto two copper hand rods while placing their feet on an attached foot plate connected to a device called the Bioresonance Coherent Monitor (BICOM). At that point, their therapist activates BICOM, which amplify harmonious frequencies while cancelling out disharmonious ones caused by toxins; then analyze results before correcting imbalances. Sessions usually last between 45-60 minutes with each session lasting 45-60 minutes in length for full effect and non-invasiveness!
There is no scientific evidence supporting bioresonance therapy as a solution for any illnesses or conditions, and numerous scientists have strongly objected to any claims made for it by advocates. Furthermore, Food and Drug Administration prosecutions against purveyors of electrical devices for making unsubstantiated health benefit claims has increased significantly while American Cancer Society advises patients against seeking treatments using unproved electronic devices have also occurred frequently.
However, this form of treatment raises several ethical considerations. First of all, it may lead people to believe they are being treated for their illness when this isn’t necessarily true, leading them to delay seeking medical advice or pursue valid therapies such as chemotherapy. Furthermore, its high cost can act as a deterrent against those experiencing financial strain.
What are the benefits of bioresonance therapy?
Bioresonance therapy‘s primary benefits are stress reduction and pain relief. Additionally, it can identify and remove toxins from the body to enhance digestion and other functions; treat allergies (atopic eczema); as well as reduce unexplained stomach pain in those living with fibromyalgia. Studies have found it effective against treating allergies through bioresonance therapy.
Bioresonance therapy is a noninvasive and painless process. Sessions typically last 20-40 minutes and patients can relax during treatment; no adverse side effects are reported by many clients either during or after their bioresonance session.
One of the major advantages of bioresonance therapy is that it does not require medications or supplements, making it a safe and effective treatment option. Furthermore, bioresonance can help detect hidden health problems that cannot be picked up through traditional blood tests as well as identify parasites, fungus, viruses or bacteria causing symptoms in a patient.
PVP can also benefit pregnant women and children, since its safe use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Some doctors have even used it to treat disorders in fetuses while they’re still developing in their mother’s wombs.
Contrary to what some practitioners claim, bioresonance therapy cannot cure cancer or any other illness. Most healthcare professionals agree that bioresonance therapy cannot serve as a valid replacement for traditional medical treatments; however, several studies have demonstrated its use for stress reduction and improved sleep quality as well as treating chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.
What are the risks of bioresonance therapy?
Bioresonance treatments don’t pose any major side effects; however, some individuals may experience mild detox or headache symptoms after each session as their bodies adjust themselves; this should pass within several days and drinking plenty of water can assist the process.
Bioresonance practitioners use electrical devices to supposedly detect electromagnetic oscillations produced by diseased organs or cancer cells that differ from healthy tissues, canceling them out via destructive wave interference and correcting cell metabolism and DNA damage levels that differ between cells. They may also identify hereditary diseases and tumors and correct gene mutations (despite unsubstantiated claims to the contrary).
Bioresonance therapy was found to significantly decrease athletes’ systolic blood pressure, decrease cortisol production and enhance energy and recovery, according to a controlled clinical trial on 60 athletes with overtraining syndrome. Fibromyalgia sufferers reported significant improvement when combined with manual therapy or point massage versus receiving the same treatment alone.
Studies have demonstrated the efficacy of bioresonance therapy for relieving symptoms associated with rheumatoid arthritis by normalizing antioxidant levels in the body, fighting free radicals. Furthermore, bioresonance can also be effective at relieving stomach discomfort without an identified diagnosis and helping smokers quit.
Some proponents claim bioresonance therapy can assist with various health conditions, including allergies, asthma and eczema. Unfortunately, no clinical evidence supports bioresonance or electrodermal testing’s ability to effectively diagnose allergies; while a clinical trial assessing bioresonance therapy for treating atopic eczema found no effect while European guidelines do not advise it as a solution.
Bioresonance does not offer scientific proof to treat cancer; some practitioners claim it can activate tumor suppressor genes and/or reduce overactive cells. The American Cancer Society advises cancer patients against using unproven electronic devices as treatments; the Australian Friends of Science in Medicine lodged a complaint to the Therapeutic Goods Administration about proponents of an “implausibly beneficial device called BICOM,” making false claims regarding its benefits.
