Circuitry refers to electronic components that control and direct the flow of electricity in devices, including sources of electrical power, pathways through which electricity flows, and switches that open or close to start or stop it. Hulda Clark designed her original Zapper as an alternative health practitioner who claimed her device could treat diseases by eliminating parasites and toxins from the body through low voltage pulses typically generated using dual polarity 5V square wave technology that pass through copper handles held by users or placed over various parts of their bodies.
Materials
Hulda Clark originally created her original zapper at 30kHz; later, however, she published a low frequency breadboard circuit for an experimental device with similar output to her 30-kHz device but using North Pole Speakers – commonly referred to as 1000Hz Zapper or 1kHz Zapper.
Basic Zapper Circuit Components include a breadboard equipped with a 555 CMOS Timer IC, seven resistors (1K Ohm, 2.2K Ohm, 4.7K Ohm, 39K Ohm and 2 270K Ohm), two.0047uF capacitors and Red LED. For easy transportability this device comes complete with its own soldered battery snap/on/off switch as well as being housed within a sturdy cardboard box that you can also use to store its circuit.
To create the 1000Hz Zapper, just remove the yellow-violet-red-gold resistor (4.7K resistor) from G9-I10 and replace it with another 270K resistor – this allows you to test on an oscilloscope to confirm that your zapper generates a positive offset square wave with NO negative spikes – an ideal frequency used by Nikola Tesla, George Lakhovsky, Royal Raymond Rife, and Bob Beck in their electromedicine experiments.
Many couples face relationship challenges that require the services of a therapist in order to address and repair. When these issues become overwhelming, trust issues and communication breakdowns may occur requiring outside guidance in order to heal.
Some approaches focus on building therapeutic alliances and managing initial crisis situations, while others prioritize interventions designed to alter partners’ perspectives of each other. Other therapies use alternative channels to foster emotional intimacy and foster healing.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness-based therapies such as mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), cognitive therapy (MBCT) and relapse prevention (MBRP), have been demonstrated to assist individuals in managing depression, decreasing rumination, improving emotional regulation and increasing overall well-being. This approach encourages present moment awareness as well as nonjudgmental observation of one’s thoughts, emotions and bodily sensations.
Therapists frequently integrate mindfulness practices into other therapeutic modalities, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and psychodynamic therapy in order to meet client goals. Mindfulness practices promote psychological flexibility by increasing adaptive decision making processes while helping clients accept and tolerate difficult emotions more easily.
MBRE also provides a framework for exploring trauma, unconscious processes, and relationship dynamics, allowing couples to cultivate mindful attention and compassion – increasing empathy and connection within relationships. MBRE has opened up new lines of research relating to mindfulness’ use in chronic illness recovery 50 and programs designed to promote healthier eating habits.
Mindfulness-based therapies are highly collaborative and founded on a strong therapist-client relationship. Licensed therapists provide clinical expertise in mindfulness practices tailored specifically to clients’ goals and emotional readiness, as well as encouraging daily practices like guided meditations, body scans, breathing exercises, grounding activities that reduce stress while increasing self-regulation. Clients also participate in group discussions to share experiences and provide mutual support.
Art Therapy
Art therapy offers partners an unconventional means of communicating their emotions and exploring relationship dynamics without engaging in conflict or miscommunication. By encouraging deeper connection through imagery, symbolism, shared experiences and imagery this alternative relationship therapy method can reveal new insights into emotional dynamics while strengthening empathy that strengthens bonds. Therapeutic art activities that may help couples reconnect include painting connections or collaborative collage making or shaping their bond through clay sculpting.
Art therapy offers not only an expressive outlet but can also foster emotional resilience and provide effective ways of managing anxiety. By understanding their triggers and developing healthier ways to respond, patients can learn how to cope with symptoms associated with their condition while experiencing greater fulfillment in life.
Anxiety is one of the most prevalent mental health conditions, leading to feelings of fear and inadequacy. Traditional talk therapy can be effective at relieving anxiety; however, sometimes an alternative approach may be needed in order to reach deeper healing levels – in Julia’s case art therapy was essential for her overcoming her anxiety and rediscovering her strength.
Outdoor Experiences
Outdoor experiences may range from using nature as a ‘container’ for therapy sessions like walking and talking sessions to actively engaging with nature through walking, talking and other outdoor experiences, such as E. O. Wilson’s influential biophilia hypothesis which suggests humans have deep roots in and dependencies on other living things and nature itself.
Adventure therapies rely on the principle that nature provides opportunities for growth and development, often through activities like hiking, wilderness backpacking, white water rafting, rock climbing or mountain biking – often followed by a debriefing session afterwards. Couples therapists offering outdoor adventures as part of their therapy services encourage couples to collaborate together on unfamiliar, challenging environments while supporting one another and forming teamwork and trust among themselves and each other.
Therapeutic practices offered outdoors include therapeutic gardening, recreational therapy and natural arts therapy. These can be offered either as standalone therapeutic interventions or within wider holistic or experiential frameworks like indigenous cultural healing animism practiced by indigenous communities worldwide. All three activities fall under outdoor nature-based interventions; one meta-analysis has demonstrated their positive impacts in improving mental health outcomes among community-based adults when compared to controlled studies using control groups; this underlines the significance of considering context and dose when assessing these nature-based interventions for their effectiveness.
Dance Therapy
Dance therapy can be one of the fastest ways to change relationship dynamics quickly. It works by unlocking nonverbal trauma memories stored in your nervous system and body which you have been trying to ignore by numbing, disconnecting and fleeing; often hidden behind positive beliefs you hold about yourself and relationships.
As opposed to recreational dancing, dance/movement therapy relies on psychotherapeutic principles for its sessions. Sessions usually begin with either a warm-up exercise or verbal check-in with both client and therapist before progressing with movement exercises and techniques that encourage free associating and symbolism within movement patterns.
Although research on dance/movement therapy is relatively new, some studies indicate it can help people manage anxiety, depression and other mental health conditions more effectively. Furthermore, dance/movement therapy may increase flexibility, decrease muscle tension and strengthen coordination.
When searching for a dance/movement therapist, it’s essential that they are members of the American Dance Therapy Association (ADTA). At least a Master’s degree and registration as an R-DMT should be on their resume. An R-DMT has undergone rigorous training in various dance and movement techniques and is experienced working with diverse populations – as well as treating challenges such as depression, eating disorders, anxiety and Parkinson’s disease.
Animal-Assisted Therapy
Animal-assisted therapy enlists client, therapist, and animal in therapeutic activities designed to achieve specific treatment goals. It offers an ideal alternative for those unable to participate in traditional psychotherapy due to fear, allergies or other restrictions; therapy animals like dogs, horses or cats provide therapeutic support and enable clients to learn new coping mechanisms.
One of the most beloved therapy animals is the canine. Therapy dogs have been proven to reduce anxiety and depression, enhance cognitive functioning and increase physical endurance. Their innate affection and playful nature are often comforting to clients as well. Furthermore, people who have experienced abuse may find comforting companionship from dogs or other pets rather than from humans alone.
Therapists who incorporate animals into their sessions must be highly aware of how incorporating an animal will impact the therapy process. Research on animal-assisted therapy is still in its infancy; studies are often limited in terms of study populations or control groups, while its cost can be prohibitive to many individuals. Luckily, animal-assisted therapists possess extensive knowledge about its psychological principles as well as experience facilitating change through human-animal relationships.
Non-Traditional Therapies
As therapeutic approaches evolve, more couples are turning to non-traditional therapies as an alternative to traditional relationship counseling. These experiential techniques offer couples an immersive experience which enables deeper communication while opening doors to unique perspectives that could contribute to conflict resolution and growth within their relationships.
Contemporary couple therapy approaches all share a general theoretical framework, yet each approach may differ in its underlying precepts regarding mechanisms of change. Most prioritize interventions designed to strengthen and stabilize relationships by managing initial crises and strengthening dyadic functioning; some also emphasize interventions designed to alter partners’ thoughts about one another (such as by decreasing negative subjective meaning and encouraging more positive interactions).
Other differences involve how heavily each therapeutic approach focuses on individual processes like attachment, mentalization, self- and partner perceptions, interactional patterns, gender or sociocultural consciousness. Some models vary on whether therapists should consider how their own reactions to partners’ behaviors might contribute to the effectiveness of treatment (Baucom et al., 2014). Finally, some approaches encourage therapists to disclose information themselves while others do not (Snyder, 1989). These variations contribute to an overall expansion in terms of both phenomena addressed by contemporary couple therapy as well as theoretical frameworks from which these phenomena are conceptualized. This distinction can be described as pluralism versus eclecticism (eclecticism is defined as borrowing techniques or constructs from one theoretical framework to use in another); pluralism on the other hand unifies different theories into an organic whole.
As per traditional Chinese medicine, energy or Qi (pronounced Chee) is an essential force that pervades all parts of our universe and interacts harmoniously to keep everything functioning at peak performance. Qi can manifest in different forms at any one time but always remains linked so that all operations work harmoniously together.
Biomedically speaking, zang fu is a system, thus the qi must always be supplied to it for it to function effectively.
How does it work?
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is founded on the idea that an energy form known as Qi (pronounced “chi”) flows throughout our bodies through channels known as meridianos, with any obstruction or disruption altering this flow leading to illness. TCM has been practiced for millennia in China and today its popularity worldwide is only increasing.
Qi, or emotional force, propels movement and respiration. Diet, sleep patterns and other aspects of behavior that impact qi can also have an effect on it.
Through Qi Medicine, Tui Na, Acude and Moxibustion are addressed all aspects associated with Qi. Tui Na is a form of massage using water, fabric, flowers and other specialized materials in order to strengthen and restore equilibrium between yin and yang in the body.
Through Moxibustion, bodies can also warm and expand their Qi. Moxibustion uses small hot strips of plant fibre (Moxa), placed directly onto specific body areas for application; meditation techniques, movements and breathing techniques are also included as part of this practice.
Energy Qi specialists possess an uncanny ability to detect, stimulate and address nervous system disorders.
Experts of Chinese traditional medicine believe that every aspect of the human body, from tissues and energy pathways to brain processes, are composed of opposing forces known as yin and yang that should balance to maintain good health. Their balance ensures longevity; Chinese traditional medicine’s tradition strives to achieve this balance and maintain it so as to avoid disease. Traditional practitioners observe fabrics, energies and humans to determine ways in which to realign them back together again.
What are the benefits?
Traditional Chinese medicine is founded upon the idea that one type of energy, known as Qi (pronounced “chi”), flows throughout our bodies via pathways known as meridians. People believe that disruption or imbalance of this flow could result in illness; Acupunture therapy uses implements such as needles, moxas and Chinese massage to promote and rejuvenate this circulation of Qi.
Qi can bring together and coordinate the work of all internal organs, while also stimulating muscles, nerves and ligaments – providing essential life force support and longevity benefits.
Traditional Chinese Medicine views all aspects, including the body, as containing opposing forces known as yin and yang. Maintaining equilibrium between them is key to health.
Qi has great value and can be applied to our culture. Tuyo works to establish balance and maintain it for optimal health.
As it is, achieving health and happiness depend on many different elements, such as food, your mind, actions and ways of living. Qi can help you become aware of and understand your unique personality traits and qualities while learning how to apply these for optimal living conditions.
Acupunture has been studied scientifically to demonstrate its efficacy. Acusatorio studies claim that Acupuntura therapy in turn reacts with traditional Chinese science by responding to its core formula and offering psychological and biological benefits in the body. Qi has great value as part of modern science; helping understand your immune system while replacing traditional illness treatments even after they’ve been eliminated from your life.
How do I get started?
Jing qi (pronounced ‘jing-kee”) is a central concept in traditional Chinese Medicine (MCM), both theoristically and practically. An in-depth knowledge of Jing Qi can provide crucial insight into life processes of development and maintenance.
Qi (pronounced chee) flows through our bodies via special pathways known as meridians. According to MTC expert Philippa Harvey: an even flow of QI has the power to strengthen, energize and heal our body – but excessive or deficient QI flow can have serious repercussions across all systems.”
Jing Jing, Shen Shen, and Hong Qi form the trinity essential to human life. Without them, there would be no life. Together these elements produce, transform and maintain food production, air circulation, music creation and physical exercise.
What is the cost?
Traditional Chinese medicine is founded upon the concept of Qi. Although this term can be translated to mean “life energy”, eastern thought does not differentiate between matter and energy, leading to all aspects of existence having some relationship to Qi.
Patients suffering from disease possess an internal force (Fu Qi) which pervades all areas of their bodies, impacting every part of them. Fu Qi can move through your entire system and reach cells and nerve endings via nerve pathways; particularly notable are places like your intestine, stomach and pulmonary areas where the Qi settles down into cancerous growths; also energy pathogenicity and autoimmunity can result from this concept.
Traditional Chinese Medicine employs various treatments to restore bodily equilibrium, including acupuncture which uses needles and pressure points on various muscular meridians of the body to rebalance it. Furthermore, herbs or combinations thereof (herbs/roots/powder) or animal products may also be used to stimulate balance.
Heart energy brings together Qi originating from both the large intestine and lung and stores it in the chest. The Qi of the Heart is responsible for both lung function as well as odor production; Fu Qi may also appear during secondary infections or autoinmune diseases like dermatitis atopica, urticaria, certain forms of artritis, or skin gangrene.
Rife therapy employs frequencies to target diseases without damaging healthy cells. Each disease has its own electromagnetic frequency.
Instead of providing all-encompassing EMF exposure, rife machine technology only applies frequencies thought to be therapeutic, so as to support detoxification and other health goals. Rife machines may often be found alongside holistic wellness practices to aid with detoxification efforts or other health goals.
RIFE Frequency Technology
Royal Raymond Rife pioneered RIFE Frequency Technology in the early 20th century as an alternative therapy that uses low-energy electromagnetic frequencies to target harmful pathogens and help the body’s natural detoxification processes. The technology works by pinpointing each disease’s unique electromagnetic frequency, disrupting and dismantling it without harming healthy cells; this method should be combined with diet and exercise programs and chiropractic care plans for optimal results.
Elevate is a mobile app that combines the healing powers of RIFE frequency technology with soothing background music for an impactful wellness experience. Its intuitive user interface allows you to select various frequency sets and sine waves that best meet your wellness goals, creating customized sessions suited for meditation or mindfulness practices with additional therapeutic benefits provided by RIFE frequency technology. Download it today to take the first step in living a more balanced lifestyle!
RIFE Frequency Therapy at Innately Yours Chiropractic Studio
RIFE frequency therapy has gained increasing attention over time due to its purported ability to target harmful pathogens and support detoxification processes in the body. First developed by Royal Rife in the early 20th century, this device emits low-energy electromagnetic frequencies which resonate with specific disease cells to disrupt activity and kill them off.
At Innately Yours Chiropractic Studio in Colorado Springs, Dr. Codi uses RIFE frequency therapy as part of her holistic approach to helping her patients unlock their body’s true healing potential. She leverages it alongside advanced NetworkSpinal chiropractic care services she offers – further strengthening patients’ wellness journeys and helping them meet their wellness goals more easily.
When participating in RIFE treatments, patients connect electrical pads on their feet or hands that produce low-energy impulses, producing electrical pulses that provide low energy impulses. A machine then targets individual disease cells at precisely the frequency needed to destroy them without harming healthy ones during this precise therapy session. Furthermore, multiple diseases can be detected simultaneously meaning patients can enjoy multiple benefits simultaneously without repeating sessions; the therapy is gentle yet highly effective making it suitable for virtually anyone.
RIFE Frequency Therapy at Healthy Living Natural Health & Pain Management
Royal Raymond Rife invented this noninvasive modality known as RIFE technology to treat disease by targeting its electromagnetic frequencies, specifically targeting harmful microorganisms without harming healthy cells. By targeting specific frequencies, RIFE may eliminate harmful pathogens without impacting healthy ones.
Rife therapy falls under bioelectromagnetic therapies; however, this differs from EMF exposure as it targets specific frequencies believed to be therapeutic. Furthermore, it should not be seen as a panacea but instead as an energetic wellness tool which supplements other holistic practices like nutrition, exercise, stress management and traditional medical care.
Clients connected to electrodes on their feet or hands emitting low-energy waves will connect to electrodes emitting these waves during sessions, with their rife machine emitting waves emitting from these points, emitting low energy waves. Their therapist will perform a general body scan in order to assess vibrational levels in organs as well as identify any bacteria and viruses not operating optimally – once detected by their machine they will target specific areas for healing by their therapist.
Frequency therapists employ sound frequencies not just to combat an organism; rather, they use them to stimulate healthy cells while retraining unhealthy ones to operate more efficiently – this balancing effect has the power to support tissues, organs and immune systems, making this form of noninvasive therapy an increasingly popular wellness choice.
Sessions typically last 30 to 60 minutes and clients may feel a gentle vibrational sensation or sense of calm as the Rife frequencies penetrate deeper into their energy fields. Wellness professionals generally recommend consistent use since benefits tend to accrue gradually over time rather than with one-off treatments sessions. Rife frequency therapy is safe, gentle and drug-free – making it an excellent complement to holistic approaches like Yoga or Acupuncture; it should always be discussed with healthcare providers beforehand to make sure it fits with your wellness goals and practices.
Mucus hypersecretion is a common feature among those suffering from COPD and asthma, often leading to frequent exacerbations despite optimal pharmaceutical treatment. HFCWO helps improve airway clearance by using positive and negative pressure changes to enhance peripheral lung secretion movement.
HFCWO therapy is safe and well tolerated in hospitalized patients requiring airway clearance therapy, with few adverse side effects reported by hospital staff or patients alike. Furthermore, its safer percussive ventilation approach than chest wall percussion does not dislodge lines, drains, catheters etc.
What is HFCWO?
High frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO) is an airway clearance therapy that utilizes vibrations to loosen and flush away mucus from your respiratory tract, making breathing easier while decreasing risk of exacerbations. HFCWO’s at-home treatment option utilizes a vest fitted around your chest which vibrates at a fixed frequency to facilitate secretion mobilization and clearance.
In a large, retrospective cohort study involving 2596 adults with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB), initiating mHFCWO was associated with significant improvements in hospitalization rates, antibiotic use and self-reported quality of life metrics such as respiratory symptoms and health-related quality of life metrics, particularly frequent exacerbator patients. Furthermore, improvements were immediate and sustained for up to 1 year post mHFCWO implementation.
Recent research compared spirometry results of NCFB patients treated with both an mHFCWO and sham device. FEV1, FVC and total lung capacity measurements were similar between groups; moreover, both reduced frequency of exacerbations due to spirometry-based measures.
mHFCWO was found to significantly decrease central and distal airway volumes as well as total lobe volumes in both proximal and distal lung areas. Furthermore, an increase in lung elasticity caused a shift of mucus in airways; an effect which likely contributed to this shift.
These findings demonstrate that mHFCWO can be an effective treatment option for NCFB, and should be included as part of existing therapies as an add-on therapy. Furthermore, it’s a safe and cost-effective treatment which may also form part of an overall plan to manage bronchiectasis including education and supportive care services.
How Does HFCWO Work?
HFCWO systems differ from OLE devices by employing external percussive wave forces to mobilize secretions through air bladders in an airway clearance vest, typically by Hillrom-Baxter’s Vest system, Tactile Medical’s AffloVest or Monarch (Hillrom-Baxter) or SmartVest (Electromed).
HFCWO therapy uses rapid compression and expansion motions on the chest wall to generate oscillatory pressure waves that disturb bronchial secretions, making them easier for coughing out. Vibrations also stimulate ciliary beating which changes their nature so they become thinner and more liquid, helping the body easily clear them out from within your lungs.
Airway clearance therapy is a noninvasive form of physical therapy used to help those living with chronic respiratory conditions breathe easier and live healthier lives. A consistent schedule of airway clearance therapy reduces symptoms like fatigue, shortness of breath and coughing while protecting against potentially life-threatening bacterial infections that could occur with chronic conditions like cystic fibrosis (CF).
Studies have demonstrated that HFCWO can significantly decrease pulmonary exacerbations among those living with cystic fibrosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), while also improving their lung function and quality of life.
HFCWO works based on several theories. One is that its device increases shearing force on bronchial secretions during expiration, enabling them to flow more easily from lungs to large airways. Another possibility is that vibrations stimulate ciliary beats which changes their nature so they become thinner and clear more quickly when coughing occurs.
The SmartVest is the premier device for providing HFCWO therapy. With advanced features and personalized therapy that allow users to breathe easier and enjoy greater quality of life, those interested in including HFCWO as part of their daily life should consult with their doctor prior to beginning this form of treatment.
People already receiving this revolutionary treatment may participate in ongoing clinical trials to assess its efficacy. One such trial compares AffloVest with standard physiotherapy for 30 bronchiectasis patients; SmartVest will play a significant role in this trial with an estimated completion date in December 2020.
What is the Difference Between HFCWO and Compression?
HFCWO stands apart from compression therapy in how it generates and delivers its effects. Percussive waves vibrating the chest wall help loosen thick mucous with shearing forces, making coughing out easier for patients. Furthermore, these vibrations also reach into the lungs to promote secretion mobilization and elimination. There are various devices which provide percussive waves directly onto the chest wall like handheld percussion clapping or vest-based devices that deliver percussive waves directly.
HFCWO differs from hand-held devices by being worn comfortably while sitting. It consists of an inflatable vest that wraps fully around a patient and connects to an air pulse generator, equipped with air pockets that vibrate at a specific frequency and intensity selected by them, between 2Hz-25Hz depending on their comfort levels.
A randomized controlled trial was conducted to compare the effects of mobile HFCWO device (mHFCWO) with nonmobile device in individuals with cystic fibrosis who experienced difficulty clearing their sputum. Both devices were used for 30 min during one treatment session followed by two week break periods between each therapy session; Sputum collections, spirometry tests and Brody score assessments were done before and after every therapy session.
The results of the study demonstrated that mHFCWO outshone CPT at mobilizing and expectorating sputum, even when taking into account potential factors like practice effects and familiarity with CPT. This important finding demonstrated that mHFCWO can be as effective in people living with CF who struggle to cough than CPT alone.
Note that while this result may seem encouraging, not all micro HFCWO devices are created equal. Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation (BCV) devices offer true oscillation of the chest wall without inhibiting range of motion or interfering with FRC recruitment – unlike traditional vest-based therapies which often restrict chest movement or interfere with FRC recruitment; as a result it significantly enhances secretion clearance for those suffering from conditions like Cystic Fibrosis, Bronchiectasis disorder of diaphragm or neuromuscular diseases.
Why Should I Try HFCWO?
HFCWO therapy can provide significant improvements in lung function and quality of life for those living with cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis or any other chronic respiratory conditions. HFCWO therapy serves as an effective mucus mobilization method, making home treatment possible with its portable device. Furthermore, it should be part of an airway clearance therapy regimen (ACT), alongside inhalers and nebulized medications to maximize outcomes and maximize results.
ACT can help break up and thin out thick mucus in the lungs that cannot be cleared by coughing or suction alone, making sputum easier for your body to clear away. Historically, chest physiotherapy, huff coughing and PEP devices were commonly used as forms of ACT therapies; more recently however mobile high frequency chest wall oscillation vests (mHFCWOs) with positive pressure air pulses are being introduced that use positive pressure air pulses to loosen secretions and promote natural coughing.
The mHFCWO is an advanced and user-friendly version of the original HFCWO device. The device consists of an inflatable vest connected to a power generator which quickly injects and withdraws air, creating vibrations similar to diaphragmatic movements. Setup or training aren’t required for using it and its rechargeable battery allows patients to bring it along on travel adventures for treatment while on the road.
Recent umbrella review of 12 systematic reviews provides support for the efficacy of HFCWO for improving sputum properties, lung function tests, dyspnea and quality of life in conditions like cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). 8 studies had a high AMSTAR-2 confidence level while global interest in HFCWO has grown substantially since 2010.
RespirTech, a Philips company, conducted a retrospective patient registry study which demonstrated how HFCWO therapy with their mHFCWO device significantly reduced hospital admissions, antibiotic usage and improved health-related quality of life for chronic respiratory patients in just one year.1 Their results were published in PLOS ONE peer-reviewed journal.
