The benefits of blood electrification treatment

In the previous issue of the Red Clover Clinic Newsletter, I presented the benefits of electro-acupuncture medicine. I discussed how adding electricity to treatments can increase blood flow, stimulate the production of new cells, support toxin elimination, improve immune function, calm inflammation, and reduce stress. In this article I would like to talk about how targeting the blood with electricity is like a supercharge to your body. 

Understanding terrain theory

Back in January 2020, I wrote an article discussing the differences between terrain theory and germ theory, titled Why do we get sick? Looking back, my timing was uncanny! The basic premise of terrain theory is that we don’t get sick because germs are present; rather, germs can thrive because our bodies are weakened, stressed, and malnourished. From an electro-medicine standpoint, the body gets sick because it is low voltage, i.e., it has an electron deficiency.

The field of epigenetics has also grown out of this concept of terrain theory. Epigenetics is the study of how environment and lifestyle turn our genes on and off, affecting our health more than the genes themselves. This five-minute video by cell biologist Bruce Lipton illustrates how he came to the understanding that “less than 1% of illness is connected to genes, and over 90% of illness is connected to how you respond to the environment.” Toward the end of the video he makes a connection even more relevant to this article: “Consider the conditions of the culture medium, and in the human body, that’s blood.” 

How to get electricity into the blood and what does it do?

The mechanism of getting electricity into the blood is a lot simpler and less painful than it sounds. First, we need to understand that the fibrous covering of blood vessels is the third-most conductive tissue in the body. Second, we need to select a location on the body where the arteries lie close to the surface. The radial and ulnar arteries run just under the skin at the palm side of the wrist, where you would feel your pulse. In the office, I slide an acupuncture needle next to the artery. Another option is to use a TENS pad (see image below) over the pulse points. Of course, the needle or TENS pad needs to be connected to a device that emits the proper type of current. You can read more about that in my previous article. 

The benefits of doing this treatment include improving circulation; decreasing inflammation; strengthening the immune system by inhibiting viral, bacterial and fungal load in the blood; increasing body voltage and overall energy; promoting detoxification; and stimulating the production of new blood cells. A simple way to think about this is that electrons are an antioxidant and have a healing systemic effect on the body. As I already stated, this treatment supercharges the body by correcting the terrain.

In this eight-minute video, Dr. Jeremy Steiner, with whom I have been studying, shows the effects of the blood electrification treatment on blood cells, using dark field microscopy.  

How to get the most benefit from the blood electrification treatment

It is best to begin doing this treatment for 15 minutes and see how you feel. If you aren’t suffering from detoxification symptoms (headache, fatigue, aching joints, nerves on fire, skin itching, etc.), you can increase the time by another 15 minutes. Proceed in this manner until you are up to one to two hours a day. After four months, you can typically reduce usage to one to two times a week.

I frequently use this treatment with my clients when they are in the office for an acupuncture treatment. Each treatment will have a healing effect on the immune system, even if it can't yet be measured or noticed. If you are interested in ramping up the treatment and doing it daily, because you want to feel better, have a chronic condition, and/or are struggling with immune issues, there is an affordable unit that you can purchase from our office to do this at home. It is designed in such a way that you can wear it on your body and go about your day  without it being too cumbersome. 

Cautions

There are a few cautions to be aware of with this treatment. It should not be used by individuals with an implanted device, such as a pacemaker or defibrillator, or in pregnancy, without talking to their doctor. As the body heals and absorption increases, you may need to talk with your doctor if you need a dosage adjustment of a prescription medication. Finally, it should not be used near water, when driving a car, or when operating heavy equipment.

If you are curious about how to incorporate this treatment into your health program, please ask me about it at your next visit. It is quite empowering to have a tool that helps you to change the terrain of your body beyond changing your diet and increasing your exercise. It has been a game-changer for me personally. I have struggled with chemical sensitivity and fatigue for years, in spite of very healthy lifestyle habits. This self-treatment protocol is giving me my energy back and has reduced systemic inflammation. As Bruce Lipton said in the video:  “Change how you respond to the environment, and you change the characteristics of your life.“

Marie's body of knowledge

Are you looking for more distance out of your golf swing and reducing back pain and stiffness during or following your round of golf? Areas that commonly restrict a good backswing and follow-through are stiffness in the thoracic spine and rib cage, tight hip flexors, and decreased lumbar and pelvic rotation. Thoracic and rib cage stiffness and reduced rotation also over-stress the neck and result in neck and shoulder pain. 

A comprehensive physical therapy assessment of pelvic symmetry, spine mobility, and muscle flexibility, particularly of the hip flexors, could prove to be the ticket! Addressing limitations with myofascial release, flexibility exercises, and targeted strengthening of weak muscles may help reduce pain and get more yards off the tee and fairway. Also performing 5-10 minutes of trunk rotation and shoulder stretching exercises with a golf club, prior to teeing it up on the 1st tee, helps to loosen up the joints and muscles and improves the sense of achievement that goes along with striking the perfect golf shot.
