    Magnawave & Schumann Resonances

    One of the AOPP certification classes was taught by a chiropractor, Dr. Jerry Dreessen, who uses Magnawave/Aurawell equipment. Some PEMF frequencies were claimed to have tissue specific therapeutic properties. Was this personal experience or something in the literature? Magnawave has Schumann Resonances (featured image) embedded in 50→1 Hz of each power setting. The relative…

    PEMF and hemoglobin

    PEMF is said to increase oxygen delivery to our bodies. Just exactly what does this mean? This post presents a hypothesis as to the molecular and electromagnetic mechanism as to how this occurs.

    light and soluble guanylyl cyclase

    What happens when to a molecule when it absorbs visible light? A 1999 Scientific American post explored the question of why a brick wall heats up when it absorbs light. Two explanations were given to this seemingly simple lay question: What happens when light strikes an object? Possibility #4 is particularly intriguing because the rate of…
