Energy & Vibration A Basis for a New Paradigm by Julian Perry The current practice of medicine is based upon the Newtonian model, one that sees people and things as intricate mechanisms which can be repaired in order to restore health. However, this approach to human life is increasingly being seen as inadequate and wanting in depth and meaningfulness. Core Energy Surgery for the Electromagnetic Body by Jon Whale, Ph.D. The short cut back to health, normality and freedom. 'The information presented below is not a theory but the result of 20 years of clinical observations. Anyone prepared to investigate, will confirm the same. Part I of a 3 part series Body Harmony by Susie Jewell Shock and Trauma by Will Wilson Effects of shock are often missed by doctors and therapists. Such things as surgery, falls, car accidents and physical, emotional or sexual abuse, and less obvious events such as fever or poisoning may well traumatise people. Such trauma happens when the shock mechanisms of the nervous system do not return to normal homoeostatic control. Emotional Clearing by John Ruskan Its 1988. For some reason, Im at a point in my life of reassessment of looking at where I am and wondering why Im there. Ive been earnestly on the path since the late sixties, so an important part of my self-evaluation concerns what we loosely call the spiritual. Have I really achieved anything in the way of growth? Am I succeeding in my efforts of self-realization? As I look honestly at myself, I see areas that call out in distress. The Profession, Standards and Safety of Oils by Sylvia Baker The Aromatherapy Organisation Councils (AOC) pre-eminent position for the aromatherapy profession was confirmed earlier this year when it was granted the first independent seat on the UK Government sponsored Independent Care Organisations overseeing National Occupational Standards for Complementary Medicine, a position reserved for organisations demonstrating they are the acknowledged leading body for their therapy. Aromatherapy Plant to the Bottle by Jan Kusmirek Whilst great work is being done by various organisations, such as the Aromatherapy Organisations Council which is the central body for UK aromatherapy organisations, as well as practitioner organisations like the International Federation of Aromatherapists and the Register of Qualified aromatherapists, there are nevertheless diverse opinions as to what constitutes good and bad courses, schools, essential oils etc. Aromatherapy Energetics An Oriental Approach by Gabriel Mojay It may at first sight seems strange to apply to aromatherapy (a therapeutic approach that seems so distinctly European) the theories of an ancient medical tradition that originated in China. That is, until we reflect that vital energy whether we we call it Qi or Dynameis is as universal to humanity as is aromatic plants to the planet.

The Use of Essential Oils by Maureen Farrell If we focus on the therapeutic use of essential oils and on aromatherapy, we can explore at various levels. Perhaps the most obvious is that of the pharmacological and physiological effect; the concept of the magic bullet and the allopathic approach of matching a remedy to a symptom. Parkinson Disease Project by Shirley Price The idea to carry out a trial on people suffering from Parkinsons Disease originated when a dear friend of mine contracted the illness, but was sceptical about trying aromatherapy. Integrated Natural Therapies by Teddy Fearnhamm Our most fervent desire as aromatherapists is to get aromatherapy recognised and used as a serious alternative to traditional medicine. Reading these words in a recently written article from overseas I was reminded how very far we have progressed in the United Kingdom in the discipline of clinical and scientific aromatherapy. Kinesiology An Integrated approach for complementary therapists by Maggie la Tourelle Kinesiology, as well as being a complete system of natural health care in its own right, can be applied with very positive results in any therapy or walk of life. Kinesiology spans the full spectrum of health and healing from its application in the more physical therapies such as chiropractic to the more subtle domain of healing and energy work. It is practised world wide by doctors, dentists, chiropractors, osteopaths, naturopaths, physiotherapists, nutritionists, counsellors, healers and in almost every branch of alternative and complementary medicine Applied Kinesiology Facilitates A Truly Holistic Approach by Brian Butler In 1964, Dr. George Goodheart, D.C., a chiropractor stumbled upon a remarkable discovery. Using some standard kinesiological muscle tests to analyse a patients postural problems, he noted one muscle was particularly tight, and that other muscles opposing it tested weak. The man had suffered from long-term back pain which had not resolved after much treatment. What is an Allergy by Dr DF Smallbone A true allergy reaction is a body response to a specific allergen, some basic chemical struc- ture to which the bodys reactive processes are triggered. Allergy Testing in the Laboratory by Mark Varey The term allergy is derived from two Greek words which mean altered reactivity. An allergy is an immune reaction to a normally harmless substance, be it food or environmental agent such as dusts, pollens or chemicals. Allergic reactions are termed hypersensitivities. Applied Kinesiology Muscle Testing for Allergies & Food Sensitivities by Brian Butler When the knowledge of how to use a muscle test to test foods was first made public in 1972, the approach was somewhat simplistic, however, this did not prevent people from achieving amazing results with this powerful new tool. |
