BioMeridian

The Biomeridian machine has blended the theories of Chinese Medicine, Electro-acupuncture, and Homotoxicology together to produce a diagnostic instrument that recommends the use of various supplements to normalize body systems.  

The Chinese system considers that the health of the body is regulated by the proper flow of chi or life force, through the meridians.  Along the meridians are acupuncture points which correspond to the health of various organ systems.  Electroacupuncture theory posits that when the meridians are blocked, that blockage or excessive flow through these points will produce a local skin effect seen as a change in skin resistance.  High resistance is taken as a blockage, low resistance is taken as a manifestation of excess, and a middle resistance as indication of proper flow or organ balance.

The theories of Dr. Heinrich Reckeweg became the practice known as Homotoxicology.  This method is based upon the theory that disease conditions develop initially as an inflammatory expression where the body tries to throw off disease by hot, red, painful eruptions, diarrhea, and vomiting, etcetera.  But, if the body cannot throw off the toxin or infection by these hot inflammatory process, then the organ function becomes depressed and the low functioning tissues become subject to degeneration, and tissue in its lowest state can develop cancer.  

The Biomeridian system consists of using two electrodes: one electrode held in a hand, while the other electrode is placed upon specific acupuncture points on the other hand.  These points correspond to major body organs and system function.  The machine and its associated computer record the skin resistance after the electrode is placed on the acupuncture point.  The high and low readings are then correlated with body organs and systems, and displayed on a horizontal bar graph, giving a representation of inflammation or organ and system depression.  And, in turn the computer suggests a remedy that could be used to correct an organ or system so as to return the tissue back toward optimal function.
