Healing With Testing Vials
by John Hansen
Our Kinesthetic Sense
In 1958 Dr. Reinhold Voll was clinically testing a colleague using his newly developed electrodermal screening or EDS device. While testing the gentleman he found him to have an abnormal reading for the prostate. The gentleman stepped into his office and returned with the recommended homeopathic remedy in hand. Dr. Voll then retested the gentleman and was surprised to find the prostate reading to be normal. The gentleman set the bottle aside and the prostate reading returned to the prior abnormal level. When the remedy was returned to the gentleman's hand, the prostate reading again returned to normal. That homeopathic remedy was the first "testing vial," and represented the beginning of a whole new paradigm for medicine.
In 1971 Dr. George Goodheart introduced Applied Kinesiology or AK, to the world. While AK is today an institution unto itself, one form or another of muscle testing is in widespread use. The most fundamental principle supporting such broad popularity of muscle testing is that muscles are weakened simply by bringing into close proximity to the body, anything that the body perceives as harmful; and conversely, muscles are strengthened by something perceived by the body as beneficial. Of equal importance, the subject needs no cognitive awareness of the test substance. No other senses need be involved than our subtle kinesthetic sense.We generally think of our kinesthetic sense as our ability to learn to perform physical skills by practicing them. Unlike mental thoughts, kinesthetically learned activities — like learning to walk, swim, or ride a bicycle — are not forgotten, but permanently imprinted into our cellular, or somatic, memory.
Unlike our physical senses, our subtle kinesthetic sense is "non-organic." We have eyes to see, ears to hear, nose to smell, tongue to taste, and skin to feel, but no specific organ is responsible for our kinesthetic sense. It can operate independently of our other senses and even our rational cognition. However, it need not necessarily be dissociated from either cognition or from our other senses, as any accomplished musician, painter, chef, or Olympic athlete will attest.
But there may be much more to our kinesthetic sense than learning biomechanical skills. Our kinesthetic sense appears to be closely associated with our cellular or somatic memory. For etched in this unconscious, somatic memory we can access the history of every event, every food, plant, mineral, animal, injury and disease we have encountered since the day we were born and perhaps before, whether we were overtly aware of it or not.
How is something detected by the body's kinesthetic sense?
Testing vials provide an important clue. We all accept that we can identify things with our senses by sight, sound, touch, etc. For the body to sense things without the regular senses, there must be something else — something subtle or extrasensory — and sufficiently elaborate for the body to instantly and accurately identify from among countless possibilities.
As revealed by the relatively new science of quantum physics, we now know there is much more to our universe than "what meets the eye." There is a realm of reality that has previously been veiled to all but the most adventurous scientists — a realm of existence that is beyond matter, energy, and even time — the subtle realm of a universe, inverse in proximity to ours, where speeds are much greater than the speed of light and masses are less than zero. Our familiar universe is superimposed upon this subtle counterpart and at the same time is an integral part of it. It's difficult to imagine or conceptualize, but it is enough for now just to think of it as a realm of pure information expressed in an array of subtle magnetic frequencies. This conjugate universe of frequencies is the one plausible explanation that accommodates all of our observations of the body's subtle kinesthetic sensory abilities.
Among its own myriad of frequencies for every impulse, atom, molecule, organelle, cell, tissue, organ and system, the body's subtle kinesthetic sense can instantly recognize any set of subtle magnetic frequencies, evaluate it, and know how to respond to it. Apparently, everything — including thoughts and emotions — generates (or perhaps is generated from…) a unique set of subtle magnetic frequencies that we call its frequency signature or "magnetic signature."
To describe how this system works we can use our visual sense as a model. We can, for example recognize a tiger when we see one. We can also recognize a tiger when we see a photograph of one. But, when shown a photograph of a tiger and asked to identify it, most people will respond with "a tiger" rather than "a picture of a tiger." Its not that we don't recognize the difference, but rather that our unconscious recognition precedes our conscious recognition. Confronting a tiger in the jungle will elicit an entirely different response from viewing a photograph of a tiger in the jungle. But, that is only because we have learned the difference and we can quickly rationalize our response. Interestingly, the unconscious mind, lacking conscious rationale, does not distinguish the difference. If fear is the learned unconscious response to a tiger, it will also be the unconscious response to the photograph. The subtle kinesthetic sense of our body, likewise, has no cognitive function and therefore lacks conscious rationale. So one would naturally expect the body's response to some kinesiological analog of a photograph — a kinesiograph — of an item to be indistinguishable from its response to the actual item. That is exactly what we find.
Testing vials are kinesiographs
Here at Ergopathic Resources, we collect, catalog, and archive kinesiographs by "reading" the unique magnetic frequency signatures of samples, encoding the signature and archiving it into the virtual library on our computer's hard drive. When we wish to copy or imprint the kinesiograph into a vial, we recall the magnetic signature from the computer and copy it into a vial using an infrared carrier. The vial is then succussed like a homeopathic preparation to permanently record the magnetic signature into the vial solution. When the vial is presented to someone, their kinesthetic sense detects the kinesiograph and elicits the same kinesiological response as if the actual substance was present.
Testing vials have a variety of applications. They can be used to reveal sensitivities, allergies, and potential disorders. Then, as Dr. Voll first discovered, they can be used to evaluate remedies — homeopathic, allopathic, isopathic, nutritional, herbal, etc. And more recently, energetic techniques such as NAET and its evolutionary successor, BioSET use testing vials to "reprogram" the body's somatic or cellular memory to effectively clear or eliminate sensitivities, allergies, immune disorders, and to generally assist the body's innate healing capacity for any somatic stressor or disorder.
There are also similar healing techniques that do not use vials, such as Callahan's Thought Field Therapy or TFT, Emotional Freedom Technique or EFT, TET by Tapes Flemming, Asha Clinton's Seemorg Matrix Work, and others that are very effective for emotional and psychological disorders, and for prominent emotional and psychological components of somatic disorders. However, healing somatic disorders requires a specific somatic address. Relying only upon our familiar senses with no direct somatic access — can only address the non-somatic components of disorders. Effective somatic healing requires direct somatic access via our subtle kinesthetic senses. Anything that will provide the function of a kinesiograph — testing vials, electronic EDS devices, or actual samples will do. Real samples would be ideal, but very inconvenient for regular access, use, and storage, and they do not lend themselves to homeopathic compounding. Electronic EDS devices are frequently more compact and comprehensive than a testing vial library, but also far more expensive. Testing vials are popular because they are convenient, inexpensive, versatile, stable — and most of all — effective for addressing a whole dictionary of health concerns.
The Ergopathic Resources virtual library is impressively diverse and exceptionally extensive, effectively addressing human anatomy, physiology, genetics, behavior, biochemistry, pathology, and medicine. We also cover our environmental exposures with botany, zoology, meteorology, geology, chemistry, hydrology, food sciences, technology, and environmental health. We have brought together many of the items in our library into functional collections we offer as testing vial kits. While representing only a fraction of the resources in our ever-growing library, testing vial kits are compiled based on a great deal of research to provide the greatest functionality and convenience to our customers. Kit groupings are based on several criteria such as most common, most allergenic or reactive, most representative, and generally most appropriate.
The instrumentation we use at Ergopathic Resources to prepare our testing vials is a Nexus 21 in conjunction with a Meridian Stress Assessment System (MSAS) available from BioMeridian, Inc. Visit www.biomeridian.com.
