If you have a tendency to dismiss homeopathy, therapies that work by “laying on of hands,” and the possibility of treating physical problems with magnets or machines that produce electromagnetic energy, you owe it to yourself to explore the profoundly interesting evidence that is now being produced by researchers all over the world. Oschman has compiled a unique textbook explaining the research on what is known about the energy systems of the body, with theories and evidence about how they interact. There is no question that we are at the very beginning of scientific understanding of this field, but there equally is no doubt that the body is a system of interacting energies.

Oschman says:

From the work of Frolich and others, we now know that all parts of the living matrix set up vibrations that move about within the organism, and that they are radiated into the environment. These vibrations or oscillations occur at many different frequencies, including visible and near-visible light frequencies. These are not subtle phenomena; they are large, even gigantic in scale. Moreover, their effects are not trivial, because living matter is highly organized and exceedingly sensitive to the information conveyed by coherent signals. (p.63.)

The research Oschmann details shows great potential for using energy methods for treating all kinds of physical and emotional ailments, but it also indicates a high probability of a negative influence on health from the unregulated development and spread of electrical systems and technology using low-frequency electromagnetic fields, such as computers, microwaves and cell phones.
