In Memoriam Peter Mandel 1941 - 2026 We say goodbye to Peter Mandel, an extraordinary person who shaped naturopathy for decades: Born in Breslau in 1941, his path led him early into the healing professions: in 1959 he began his training as a nurse, followed by qualifications as a medical lifeguard, chiropractor, acupuncturist and reflexology therapist. In 1970 he passed the naturopathic examination – a step that laid the foundation for a life's work that radiates far beyond the boundaries of the profession. With inexhaustible curiosity, a spirit of

Operating Instructions for the “Remedy Information Transfer Unit” (RITU) This instruction manual was researched, developed and written by Dr. Walter D. Sturm, one of the founding Directors of Occidental Institute Research Foundation, and was initially published in January, 1987. This amplifier affectionately called the Remedy Information Transfer Unit (or RITU) is sadly no longer made by Med-Tronik. However, the information gathered here provides the detailed and precise instructions (as only Dr. Sturm could do!) on how to produce digital copies of the input remedy information. This procedure can still be applied using the “A” (All) circuit of any

Rejuvenessence ® A Manual for the Non-Surgical Face Lifting Technique from the Orient This Manual and technique were researched and developed for Occidental Institute Research Foundation by Walter D. Sturm, PhD, HMD, DAcu. It was used for a series of seminars held between 1978-1984 around the USA and Canada during a time when traditional acupuncture was still ridiculed and often persecuted.

Vincent’s Bioelectronic Evaluation (B.E.V.) Acid/Base Balance in Theory and Practice By Dr. Helmut Elmau Translation by Dr. Antony Scott-Morley of a German language book. Bioelectronic Vincent has become of special interest to doctors and healers. Even so, it is not so well know that it is fully understood. If Bioelectronics seems difficult to comprehend it is because the theoretical basis is pure physics. Most doctors are used to thinking in terms of biological and biochemical disturbances. Physics, although the real basis of our science, is generally not understood and insufficiently appreciated.
