Infectious Diseases Lyme Disease – The Invisible Danger How Ticks Challenge Our Immune System Lyme disease – a diagnosis that often causes uncertainty and concern among patients and practitioners alike. The infectious disease transmitted by ticks has become a real challenge for the healthcare system. More and more people are reporting fatigue, joint pain and neurological deficits, which are often only associated with Lyme disease at a late stage. While the tick is the focus as a carrier, the disease remains a chameleon among infectious diseases: diverse, difficult to

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

It offered a chance for us to look back at the many patients who have been helped regain a better state of health, and at the reasons why we are still struggling for acceptance in so many

DNA Therapy with the Photon Resonance Test By Michael Kofler, MD A short article by Michael Kofler, MD. As you know, through functional medicine we have tried for quite a long time to reach into the genome for diagnosis and therapy. However, the results were not satisfactory. The reason for this is the too low diagnostic penetration depth. The Photon Resonance Test, abbreviated PRT, provided the remedy here. The possibility of penetrating into the cell nucleus produced the first opportunity due to the opening of the transcription of the DNA strand

New Findings about Viral Infections With the Photon Resonance Test By Helmut W. Schimmel, MD, DMD A translation of an official lecture by Dr. Schimmel at the “Medicine Week” conference in Baden-Baden, Germany on Oct. 30, 2001 to “The Physicians Society for Functional Medicine and Photon Resonance”. Topics covered: Short description of the Photon Resonance Test Four stage testing New findings about the different infection phases in viral illnesses Five viral infection stages Where are viruses and infectious viral material mostly tested? Pathogenetic interrelations between viruses, infectious viral material

Resonance Homeopathy Overview and New Developments By Helmut W. Schimmel†, MD, DMD The Definition of Resonance Homeopathy: Resonance Homeopathy is an application of homeopathic medications developed in 1993/1994 according to resonance principles, which are assigned to organs, organ and cell structures as well as microorganisms (fungi, bacteria), on the basis of their corresponding resonance. Through oscillations of the cell membrane, toxins are eliminated and microorganisms are brought to a state of decay. In contrast to classical homeopathy (with remedy pictures), Resonance Homeopathy is applied based on a functional and clinical

The Photon Resonance Test Developed by Helmut W. Schimmel†, MD, DMD Highlights of the Photon Resonance Test Instrument developed by Helmut W. Schimmel †, MD DMD. An innovative method for electro-acupuncture testing. The foundations of electroacupuncture were laid in the 1950s and over the decades many variants were developed – from the multi-point to the single point measuring method, as well as various regulation tests right up to automation and digitization. Another milestone in the history of electroacupuncture is now the development of the Photon Resonance Test. By means of
