One form of alternate healing is based on the belief that the body possesses several energy levels, which in times of illness are out of balance, and through using various techniques, these levels and health can be restored. Although this approach comes in different forms, collectively they are referred to as energy therapy. The concept of balance being essential to health is shared by all of them.
Originating from an Eastern school of thought, this practice began to evolve as technology and awareness of the forces of electricity and magnetism grew. This resulted in the advent of the use of machines in medicine for the purposes of diagnosis and treatment. Unlike equipment such as x-ray and radiation machines, the success of this approach has not been scientifically proven, although many practitioners swear by its efficacy.
Those who practice this technique claim that it has the ability to encourage healing of various illnesses, even cancer. It is also connected with reduction of pain and improved immunity. There are two types of therapy; one which depends on "biofields", biological energy fields, and those which implement an outside source such as an electromagnetic field.
Examples of this latter form of therapy involve the use of electricity, magnetic fields, infrared and microwave heat. These include BioResonance tumor therapy, the Rife machine, and the "Zapping" machine. While they operate slightly differently, each of these devices has been designed to target affected cells by the administration of low-frequency electrical current.
The biofield approach seeks to influence the purported internal and surrounding energy fields of the human body. This can be achieved through physical contact between the practitioner's hands and the patient's body, or by using the hands but merely aligning them with the body and not actually touching it. Examples include healing touch, Reiki, and therapeutic touch, all of which share the common objective of balancing the body's energies.
Evidence attesting to the effectiveness of these healing modalities has yet to be proven in large-scale studies. Indications of its positive effects have come mostly from small focus groups or individuals who have chosen to undergo such alternative treatments. Many have reported fewer unpleasant symptoms associated with diseases as serious as cancer, but it is not fully accepted by the medical community.
Little to no risks are associated to the use of this healing technique, very rarely electric devices can malfunction and the manual approach is entirely safe. It should not be used on patients with defibrillators or pacemakers, as a precaution. Patients are advised to only undergo this form of therapy as a complementary treatment, not use it in lieu of conventional care with proven results.
