Bio-Resonance
Bio-Resonance or Bio-Energy Resonance is the field of energetic medicine that detects and works with electromagnetic frequency information generated by the body. Bio refers to a living organism and resonance means 'to vibrate in harmony with'.
Whereas surgery is aimed at the level of structural anatomy, and pharmaceuticals at the level of cellular biochemistry, bio-resonance works with the electromagnetic component of the body.
Our body cells generate tiny electrical impulses that interact or communicate with neighbouring cells. Cells continuously emit and respond to these signals. These signals are in the form of oscillations or vibrations and the oscillation pattern had been found to differ between a healthy person and a sick person. Oscillations from a cell burdened with foreign substances such as bacteria, toxins, etc., also have a different structure to that of a healthy cell.
The electromagnetic oscillations referred to in Bio-Energetic Medicine may be compared to, but are different from and much finer than the cardiac impulses detected by an electrocardiogram (ECG) or by brain “waves” electroencephalogram (EEG).
Bio-Resonance practitioners usually use modern electronic devices that allow test and diagnosis of pathologies in the body. The technology progress has led some practitioners to use such sophisticated computerised machines as MORA-Super-Plus and BiCOM that have the capability of various therapeutic treatments. Bio-resonance machines have the ability to measure the body oscillations, evaluate and treat disease conditions before cellular damage has taken place. Once enough cellular change has taken place, making a disease visible through traditional testing procedures, it may be difficult to reverse the condition. Changes in the body's electromagnetic field occur long before most conventional tests reveal a problem, making bio-resonance ideal for identifying illness in the early stages. This method complements orthodox medicine without replacing it.
This technique is widely used for testing allergies and intolerances. ... more

Faceworks Exercise System
An alternative to chemical and surgical procedures, Faceworks is a system of face exercises that utilises the same method as ordinary body exercise: toning and restructuring muscles through precise use.
Many facial muscles attach to the base layers of the skin, and as they become firmer the face tones and lifts. Increased circulation to the epidermis and dermis results in improved skin texture and colour. Changes in appearance are natural as the technique uses the body’s own ability to regenerate and renew, giving a more subtle result than cosmetic surgery. Clients often report an increase in self-confidence once the exercises begin to work.
The exercises are taught in classes and repeated at home between sessions. Clients also have healing or a body rebalance during the course as part of their treatment using Reiki or Kinesiology, and nutritional advice if required. Classes are either taught one to one, or in small groups, evening classes are also available . The Faceworks website has the exercises online. ... more
