Learn About The Role Of Energy Therapy As A Complementary Alternative Treatment

By Meeri Banks


The concept that restoring balance to the energy levels of the body can promote health and wellness is central to one type of alternative healing. This modality is known as energy therapy and it involves the manipulation of these biological force fields through one or more techniques which are used to bring about a state of equilibrium which some believe critical to improved health and recovery from illness.

With its roots in Eastern philosophy, the practice of using energies as a healing mechanism further evolved as knowledge of such forces are magnetism and electricity increased. The introduction of medical machines such as radiology equipment spurred continued exploration of the concept of utilizing them in healthcare, including those devices used in this type of therapy. While it lacks sufficient scientific backing, many practitioners will vouch for it.

Proponents of this healing approach have suggested that it can actually help slow down unnatural cell growth such as that in cancer. Its practice is also associated with alleviation of pain and stronger immunity. This kind of therapy is categorized as either that which employs an outside source of energy or that which works with the body's existing "biofields".

When an outside device is implemented to deliver low-frequency electrical current to the targeted cells, it typically combines infrared and microwave heat, electricity, and magnetic fields. Some examples of these devices include the Rife machine, the "Zapping" machine, and BioResonance tumor therapy.

Biofield manipulation is accomplished without devices, but instead it relies on the hands of the practitioner to act as a healing tool. Touch may be involved as in "healing touch" therapy, or the hands may be merely aligned in a certain fashion in relation to the body, as seen in Reiki, or therapeutic touch. The common goal of all forms is to correct imbalances of energy body which contribute to pain and illness.

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.

While biofield manipulation comes with no risks, electromagnetic stimulation carries the very uncommon risk of device malfunction, and it is not recommended for patients with defibrillators or pacemakers, but overall it is quite safe. However, this treatment is intended to complement conventional medical intervention, not replace it.
