SYSTEM INFORMATION PATHWAYS AND BIORESONANCE THERAPY

Unfortunately, in modern medicine there still exists another sort of communicational gap: an artificial separation into so-called conventional and complementary medicine. This seems to be mostly due to the fact that usually physicians are only human and would like to succeed socially and thus prefer to organise a more or less closed community to support their corporate interests. Both gaps should be avoided, the latter above all, since it creates unnecessary boundaries for the understanding of the interconnections of each particular process within the organism. Actually, all medicine should be holistic, even though this may be achieved based on the knowledge about many local events in the body. Though ‘holism’ is quickly becoming the most over-used and ubiquitous notion in recent years, it is difficult to argue against its importance. Paradoxically, nearly everyone has a different construct of what exactly holism means as perception, cultural values, spiritual beliefs, and knowledge vary from individual to individual. There is an ever-growing body of evidence, which suggests that electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are not simply a passive aspect of the environment and that the electromagnetic state of an organism contributes to its ‘wholeness’.
The basis for a holistic theory in medicine is made by Alfred Pischinger [58], a professor of histology and embryology at the University of Vienna, and his forerunners [59, 60] within the framework of what now is called conventional medicine. These authors coined a concept about the “ground regulation system” which is defined as a functional unit of the final vascular pathway, the connective tissue cells and the final vegetative-nervous structure, with extracellular fluid being the field of these activities [58]. This system is essentially non-specific; it penetrates the entire organism and is responsible for all basic vital functions. Thus, both diagnosis and therapy may be based on the estimation and improvement of the parameters of this system (such as the content of glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans, collagen, fibronectin and laminin, etc.; as well as the level of energy flow in the extracellular matrix and so forth). The estimation of such kinds of parameters is usually considered a prerogative of conventional medicine. However, since this is done essentially non-locally, it also conforms to the main approach of complementary medicine, which is aimed at the treatment of the essentially non-specific regulative systems of the body. When an organism is treated on a more general level of its functional dynamic hierarchy, it is easier to restore the physiological communication pathways within it and thus activating the endogenous healing processes. In short, following up of a number of biochemical estimates (in the blood, lymph or ground regulation system) in-patients employing complementary medicine techniques (massage, acupuncture, various kinds of eastern healing gymnastics or meditation, etc.) will not reduce the effacy of the complementary treatment. Actually, this is the essence of autogenic feedback training and psychotherapy. Various modern biofeedback techniques are based on the permanent follow up of certain measured parameters of the body (EEG or ECG signals, blood pressure, temperature, etc.) [61 and references therein].
The alterations in the biophysical parameters - electrophysical above all - occur at substantially general levels of the organism’s functional hierarchy. Therefore, they are responsible for very subtle intimate mechanisms of the organism’s self-regulation and interlevel communication through resonance interactions.


Electromagnetic resonance interactions between the endogenous electromagnetic oscillations of organisms are suggested [62] to occur in living systems; however, an
attempt to detect them is a rather complicated problem. Nevertheless, a still growing number of therapeutic devices, which use such kinds of interactions, are elaborated on in [63]. For example, more than 11 years of the utilisation of Brügemann (Germany) devices in various European clinics evidence their efficacy in treatment of many diseases [64-69]. Some of these devices (such as the “MULTICOM”- an abbreviation for Multiple Communication) have inner generators while others have only antennae (e.g., the “Strahler” - a German word for ray or jet) or boards (e.g., the “BICOM” - an abbreviation for Biological Communication) designed to acquire, modulate and transduce endogenous electromagnetic oscillations of organisms. As they are designed to use resonance interactions between natural electromagnetic oscillations, they are given a general title of ‘devices for bioresonance treatment’ [63, 65].
Every particular level of an organism’s hierarchy possesses a characteristic spectrum of endogenous electromagnetic oscillations originating from various processes. Intra- and interlevel resonances should occur, more or less providing correlation’s between these processes. Thus, certain interference patterns of endogenous electromagnetic oscillations can be attributed to every particular organism.
From this point of view a pathology, which may be born at any level, will perturb all oscillations via wave interactions irrespective of the origin of such waves. The distorted interference pattern of the endogenous waves of a sick organism reflects incorrect relations between biochemical processes in it. Numerous positive experiences in the application of electromagnetic therapy devices makes it possible to assume that device-induced restoration of the interference pattern will renovate physiological order in a sick organism.
One approach to this problem is to isolate basic processes (and frequencies which correspond to their time scales) which are common to all levels of an organism’s hierarchy in certain frequency ranges and can thus open pathways of interlevel signal transduction. Another approach is an attempt to “get above” the details of the exact physical and chemical nature of the processes in living systems and coin out most general relation.
While studying a living system with conventional though very sophisticated methods; we try to adopt it to our usual three- or not too much more-dimensional space (depending on how many parameters can be followed-up simultaneously). Usually, the intersection of spaces of different dimensions yields inadequate laws of cause and effect from the point of view of an observer in a lower-dimensional space. Thus, when we are ”sitting” in our two-, three- (or a little bit more) dimensional space and studying a living organism (which is a much more high-dimensional system with respect to the interrelations amongst what we call its features), we try to find functional dependencies of characteristics that may influence each other mostly occasionally. On studying a particular process in an organism, we should understand that we artificially separate it from the others and take care about the assumptions, which we make for this. That is why, one should not exaggerate the results of even extremely sophisticated and thorough investigation from the point of view of the conventional science. Actually, the deepest insight into the most intimate characteristics of any biological process cannot be generalised.
Life cannot be treated as a sequence of events. From this point of view, the speculations about ”biological” or ”morphogenetic” fields and ”aura” etc. look more correct though less ”scientific” since they do not operate with any equation (and we adopt that calculations reduce the versatility of the world owing to simplifying assumptions needed to cut off interrelations and treat a process of interest separately). Therefore, the reliance on natural (i.e. non-separated from each other) forces of an organism constitutes a great advantage of holistic medicine (and bioresonance therapy as a method of it). Contrary to ”traditional” medicine, it deals not with a set of elements and events but with a complex hierarchy of them (from quantum chemical to social). Environmental fluctuations (also from cosmic irradiation to social events) perturb the multi-dimensional spatial pattern of an organism, which, in what we call ”physiological” state, usually dissipates such perturbances within its hierarchical framework. However, when the extent of the perturbances or their duration exceed a certain level, the system of coupling of this framework (needed for effective dissipation) may be damaged or an effect of ”saturation” will occur to gain failure in organism’s withstanding to surrounding circumstances.
There are many works on quantum effects in biology which give rise to the speculations about quantum states of living organisms, so-called ”quantum biology” and ”quantum medicine”. However, in these works, investigators deal rather with quantum events in biological systems, which are more or less involved into biological development and communication. In other words, many axes of an organism-specific multi-dimensional spatial pattern may be essentially quantum mechanical, but this cannot be true for an organism as a whole. Like in physics, where ”quantum” refers to the smallest amount of a physical property, in biology, this term should refer to the smallest amount of ”biological” property, i.e. to the unit cell of multi-dimensional space pattern of every particular biological object, which may include electromagnetic, gravitational, weak and strong force and consciousness etc. axes.
Speculations about quantum biology are developed on the basis of essentially non-linear response of living systems to various influences. However, such non-linear response is also characteristic for deterministic chaos systems, in which even smallest fluctuations may induce crucial qualitative changes. As we deal with the projection of a system of higher dimension on the lower dimension system of our perception, we may observe (in the projection) different parts of this higher dimension system as separate states and thus find analogy (which is essentially wrong) with quantum mechanical transitions, when a particle can be transferred from one state to another by escaping all other in-between.
Quantum charter of biological systems, in turn, gives rise to the speculations about resonance’s and endogenous oscillations that usually are treated as the oscillations of the endogenous electromagnetic fields of living organisms. Of course, endogenous oscillations of organisms are essentially - though not exclusively! - electromagnetic since all organisms carry diluted aqueous solutions with many electrolytes, semipermeable membranes, conductive protein chains and a set of biochemical reactions of electron transfer and free radical formation etc. However, from our everyday life we know about circadian rhythms in living matter; at least, we can feel our own mental, physical, sexual or social rhythms which are substantially interdependent. This means that all these much more sophisticated (than electromagnetic) features alter (oscillate) with time. Returning to our analogy with the interception of lower- and higher-dimensional space patterns, we see that while the accounting for all parameters (axes of space pattern) simultaneously is extremely complicated deal yielding incorrect results, the study of temporal behaviour of one parameter (i.e. the study of the dynamics of its changes) can be really informative since it includes only estimated errors of measurements. Chaotic systems may be compared through the behaviour of trajectories in the corresponding phase space. There are special - bifurcation - points in such trajectories. In these points a transition from chaos to order (or vice versa) occurs and a system may ”jump” from one branch of solutions to another (this may refer to a quantum transition). Chaos-order conflict governs all levels of existence. As it is well formulated by Murray Hope ”all creation oscillates between order and chaos” [70].
We believe that bioresonances occur just within such kind of oscillations. Living organisms and all constituting them processes are essentially nonequilibrium chaotic systems capable for self-regulation that is manifested in order/chaos oscillations. The motive force for such oscillations is of electromagnetic nature to a great, however not exclusive, extent. Any chaos/order transfer is accompanied with a symmetry brake. Thus, what we call ”biological” resonance occurs in the case of the complementarily of the phase space patterns of two or more systems. Under bioresonance conditions, simultaneous chaos/order transfers occur in a set of interacting systems with respect to the studied parameter (or parameters) to gain higher coherency of systems’ behaviour.
Among the modern models in medicine - the model of genetic predisposition of the physical state of the organism, environmental influence and chaos theory - the latter is gaining now still more evidence and explanation. The application of this theory of non-linear processes in medicine includes the same approach that was
conventionally employed for different descriptions of bioresonance therapy: pathology is an inherent component of the health, there is no “health” without “pathologies” and vice versa. There is no absolute, universal health or pathology - both notions are extremely organism-related, they are most intimate individual notions. Not pathology per ce is that crucial to the organism, but the ability of the organism to cope with the whole set of processes - both physiological and pathological - that keep it alive. This is provided with the appropriate and sufficient conductivity of the informational channels within the body. The organism gains a problem in case either informational channel is blocked or wrong information passes through. Both cases mean the deficiency in the resulting biological resonance.
Own experience as well as the analysis of numerous data available in the literature convinces that actually any parameter measured in living beings can deliver particular information about the whole system (organism). This is suggested to be due to “biological resonance’s” even though there is no kind of an agreed - say, “standard” - definition of the notion of biological resonance. We believe that the dynamic information being transmitted makes it possible to adjust the rhythm of a certain function in order to fit into a regular metabolic pattern.
The notion of bioresonance therapy (BRT) was first coined out by Dr. Morrel in Germany in the 70-ties, who combined the findings by Hanneman about the dramatic influence that substantially non-material information (homeopathic dilution) on the organism and the findings by Dr. Voll about the role of acupuncture in therapy and diagnosis. As a result, a new method of therapy - bioresonance therapy - was introduced. Thus, 70-ties and 80-ties was, o one hand, a period of massive acquiring new data in the field of BRT application for treatment of different disorders, on the other hand, various types of the devices for BRT were established. Most such devices, nevertheless, employ the endogenous electromagnetic fields of the organism and the electromagnetic fields of its stressors and environment. The fundamentals of such type of devices can be showed by presenting the Cell-Com EuropeTM device, elaborated at the Hippocampus Institute in Hungary. Cell-Com EuropeTM device acquires electromagnetic oscillations of a biological system situated at the input field sensors of the device in the total frequency range of 1Hz -1 MHz, with the accuracy of max. 1 Hz. For further modulation, one can chose the bandwidth of 5-30% of the whole range of the applied frequencies. Any parameter in this device can be pre-programmed. The acquired signal may be then modified: phase may be changed, some frequencies may be filtered out or one can amplify a signal (from 0 to 80 dB). The modified signal is then sent back too the organism. In order to avoid random errors, the device usually works with differential signals measured between two electrodes connected to a patient.
It is substantial that the method of bioresonannce therapy necessitates a bioresonance-based diagnostic method. A kind of ECG biofeedback compilation with environmental and endogenous EMF interactions is used in the Cerebellum Multi channel Instrument (CMMI) developed by the Hippocampus Institute (Hungary).
• The CMMI is a 12 or 16-channel biofeedback device that produces ECG-like vectors by using large surface electrodes instead of point ones. This makes it less dependent on the peculiarities of a single active point which supports gate functions with respect to the anatomical submit or metabolic process. This means that the CMMI’s signals are less topologically determined than other electrophysiological testing equipment.
• The CMMI provides dynamical testing of the patient's electrophysical parameters through a very fast sampling rate (~ 10-4 s) and sophisticated software
for the analysis of 12 or 16 x 80 sets of acquired data. Manual adjustment of any step in the process of measurement is available.
• The measuring of various electrophysical characteristics (not only conductivity) enables more exact monitoring and makes it possible to carry out real adaptation tests.
The CMMI reflects the response of patient's electrophysical characteristics to the test substances inserted into the measurement circuit while the patient is not mentally aware of the actual sequence of the examination. Bearing in mind that the obtained data are not restricted topologically, this proves the field character of what is called consciousness. Such testing equipment make it possible to estimate the patient's response to a cure (or any other substance and - more generally - electromagnetic field-carriers) essentially in advance (before its direct application) and thus forecast the future of the patient.

In summary, it should be outlined that BRT is actually the most holistic approach ever possible: to treat the organism it applies nothing but the organism itself manifested through its electromagnetic field. By facilitating the endogenous regulative mechanisms, such electromagnetic fields support both the integrity and adaptability of the organism that constitute the notion of its wholeness.
