Neural Therapy Insights and News
Comments and Feedback
Dear Colleagues: One reward of sending out these monthly newsletters has been the interesting feedback received from readers around the world. Comments and questions from many places have resulted in some stimulating discussions. The last newsletter (on gluten as a...
Generalized Cell Membrane Instability
Dear Colleagues: This month I would like to discuss a problem encountered sooner or later by physicians learning the art of detecting interference fields. The problem is this: A patient presents with a complaint that is found to be caused by an interference field....
