The Bandpass-A Therapy Window

The Biophysicist Prof. Cyril W. Smith, Salford University, England, has been conducting some extreamly interesting research work for the past 12 years. This research has been partly done in cooperation with Prof. H. Frohlich, Liverpool, England, and in regular consultation with Dr. J. Monro and Dr. R. Choy of London, England. This work was prompted by the Nobel Prize winner Prof. I. Prigogine and Prof. H. Frohlich. Both Dr. Prigogine and Dr. Frohlich assume that the human organism reacts to very weak, ultrafine signals if the signals are in quite specific frequency ranges. Dr. C.W. Smith discovered that the response sensitivities of different patients differ markedly. The most sensitive proved to be allergy patients, particularly patients with food allergies. In hospitals in London, he discovered over time 150 allergic patients whom were available as experimental subjects. These patients were generally multi-allergic, i.e., they reacted to various substances with individual reactions. In the mildest cases these were feelings of numbness in the hands, muscle twitching, dizziness with widening of the pupils and in the most severe cases the patients suffered muscle cramps or became unconscious.

It was then discovered that not only the food allergens but also the homeopathic potency series of the allergens and particular electromagnetic signals from a sine-wave generator showed similar effects. The reaction of the patients to various potencies of their allergens and to different frequencies of the sine-wave generator were studied. The degree to which the patient's reactions were dependent on the potency and frequency was very remarkable. They are as follows:

  1. If the potency was increased step by step, starting with the original tincture of the allergen with the strongest effect, neutralizing and negative effects occured alternatively, the neutralizing effects again calcelling out the unfavorable effects.
  2. The same effects were obtained with applied electromagnetic sine-waves. When the signal frequency of the generator is slowly increased, starting from fractions of a Hertz (Hz), a quite similar relationship occurs. The only difference is that a particular frequency ilicits the response instead of the potency.
  3. If a broad frequency band acts simultaneously on the patient, there is no reaction. The frequencies acting to cancel out each other.
  4. A matching neutralizing (harmonic) signal acts immediately, in fractions of a second. The range of the effective frequency band is +/- 0.5% for an applied frequency.
  5. The unfavourably acting disharmonious frequency requires a considerably longer time to take effect, about 15 seconds or more.

    The experiments proceeded as follows in three stages:

    • In the first stage, the allergen or allergens was/were established and homeopathic potencies of these were prepared and tested. Dilution of the homeopathic preparations was not at a ratio of 1:10 as usual but 1:5. The allergic patient was then confronted with a rising potency series starting with the original tincture. The preparation was applied as a single drop on the back of the hand. The skin of the back of the hand was wiped off and cleaned between applications after results were recorded. Patients showed the characteristic reactions which in some patients consisted in muscle twitching to the extent of convulsions or fainting. In mild cases only a widening of the pupils, feeling unwell or a change in pulse occurred.

      If increasingly higher potencies are then given at short intervals one after another, an improvement in condition is found which at a particular potency the patient feels well again. In the case of fainting, the patient returned to consciousness at the "neutralizing potency". Upon further provocation, the patients condition worsened again until a second neutralizing potency was found again. The patient periodically responded negatively and positively to the rising potency series. The neutralizing potencies were found to differ between patients and from day to day, particularly as therapy progresses.

      These experiments work at high potencies with dilutions above the Loschmidt number (2.686775 X 1025 molecules per cubic gram). The observed periodic effect was found as long ago as 1923 by L. Kolisko and in 1988 by J. Benveniste et. al. According to these experiments which were statistically verified in a subsequent double-blind test in Dallas, Texas, U.S.A., Smith went on to the second stage.

    • In the second stage, he allowed electromagnetic signals from a sine-wave generator to act upon the patient via an antenna. The frequency of the generator was changed incrementally from the millihertz to the Gigahertz range. Interestingly, the same kind of periodic behavior was noted here also with numerous neutralizing frequencies. The two theraputic modalities, homeopathic and sine-waves, were interchangeable. A patient put into a negative reaction position with homeopathic allergens or the original tincture could be "neutralized" with particular frequencies and vice-versa. It took a great deal of time to find the neutralizing frequencies since large frequency ranges had to be swept slowly.

      The homeopathic potencies behaved like particular sine-wave frequency signals and vice-versa. The frequencies differed not only from patient to patient but as stated on different days. The unfavorably acting frequencies only began to show their effect after acting for a few seconds to minutes. The body is evidently able to counter-regulate before this time.

    • The third stage of this research was even more surprising. If a glass of drinking water or physiological saline solution was placed in front of the antenna of a sine-wave generator for 15 minutes and a drop of the liquid treated in this manner was placed on the tongue or back of the hand, which had previously been put into a negative reaction position, the same neutralizing effect could be achieved as with the matching potency of the allergen or the frequency of the generator. The water had therefore been imprinted with the information from the sine-wave generator and was subsequently found to retain it for several days. These are the ultrafine signals such as exist in the organism and play such a decisive role in bioresonance therapy. Boiling the liquid was found to abolish the effect with this water and that of the potencies. Freezing on the other hand did not diminish effectiveness. Some of the particularly sensitive patients even reacted to the frozen preparation if it was simply placed near them, the maximum distance being 50 cm. This was confirmed in a double-blind test.

    Another series of experiments was then initiated. Patients whom had already reacted to preparations which were merely placed close to them but without touching them, copper wire nets with various mesh sizes were positioned between the patients and the preparation. The patients reacted only if the mesh was sufficiently large. Since wire mesh of this kind only allow waves with lengths smaller than the mesh to pass through, it was possible to ascertain that the relevant wavelengths are of the order of 1 mm to 1 cm. Wavelengths longer than twice the mesh width were reflected.

    According to H. Frohlich, coherent waves can occur in organisms in this frequency range. Amplitude modulations of these shorter carrier waves are presumably relevant at the lower effective frequencies.

    The research in England, merely summerized here, substantiales in a statistically significant manner the following facts which have long been put forward by the Brugemann Institute:

    • Electromagnetic phenomena are of fundamental importance to the organization, structure and function of living systems in the state of health and in the event of illness.
    • Water, physiological saline solution and, as later was found out-alcohol, can store electromagnetic information.
    • Organisms(body water and cells) also store information and constantly release it to the surroundings at room temperature and body temperature. People also act electromagnetically on each other.
    • Electromagnetic signals, including endogenous ones, can be utilized theraputically.
    • Each patient must be treated individually. A controlled double-blind test therefore cannot be a suitable method for proving the effectiveness of an individual therapy, since there are no two people whom are completely comparable.
    • The ideal treatment is auto-ipso therapy, as represented by BRT with the patient's own frequencies.

    When Dr. Smith started his research, he did not know of the BICOM device. He has convinced himself that the therapy methods in the ultrafine bioenergy range are precisely the methods which can be concluded from his research. The results obtained by Dr. Smith led to the previous technique of BRT according to the idea of Dr. Morell being improved. Previously, a broad frequency band from the patient was picked up via skin electrodes and returned at another point partly inverted. Since positively and negatively acting frequencies alternate, the optimum effect cannot be expected from the broad-band technique. Positively and negatively acting frequencies partly cancel out each other. A narrow-band filter was therefore developed for the new device (BICOM) which has a constant relative bandwidth of approximately 7% and can be tuned manually or automatically over the range from 10 Hz to 150 Hz.

    This has a number of advantages and signifies increased safety for the patient. Since the favorable therapy signals act within fractions of a second and the unfavorable signals take at least 15 seconds to cause an effect, the maximum time taken of the bandpass to run through the entire spectrum relevant to therapy is 34 seconds.

    A further advantage of the narrow swept bandpass is that it causes less stress to the patient than a broad-band frequency pass. In addition, a broad-band frequency band has the drawback that frequency portions can mutually eliminate each other and are then not effective for therapy. This is not the case with the frequency run of the narrow bandpass. Years of experiments with broad-band circuits(high and low pass) and with the narrow frequency run of the bandpass have shown clearly the superiority of the narrow sweeping bandpass. The initial deterioration which occurred with the broad-band circuit has largely disappeared with the use of the frequency run. The bandpass covers all frequencies including the harmonics. The harmonic signals are not pure sine-wave oscillations but also have harmonics which determine the oscillation characteristics.

    It is occasionally claimed that the organism needs several seconds to react to a frequency. This is NOT the case as medicinal testing and the research of Dr. Smith et al. show. The disharmonious frequencies themselves require at least 15 seconds and in healthy subjects up to two minutes to have a detectable effect. For example. corresponding to a lead burden in the body there are several narrow-band resonators which are to be ascribed to the electron plasma cloud of the lead atom which are only slightly attenuated. If provocation is to be achieved with non-inverted disharmonious frequencies, i.e., oscillations of the lead, a relatively long time must be provided to cause an effect.

    Harmonious resonators in the organism, on the other hand, are arranged in a broad-band manner as multiresonators, as already described. This has the advantage of rapid response, as is essential for communication within the organism.

    The bandpass if required can also be set manually to a particular frequency and a special circuit allows the bandpass to be wobbled around this frequency.

    The concept of the frequency run opens up completely new avenues for application and research. For the first time in the history of medicine, a wider circle of therapists is able to ascertain the pathological frequencies of particular diseases. We shall soon be able to make statements on the frequency ranges in which particular diseases occur.
