5.0 out of 5 stars Vibrational Medicine: New Choices For Healing Ourselves, April 14, 2002

This review is from: Vibrational Medicine: New Choices for Healing Ourselves (Paperback)

Vibrational Medicine: New Choices For Healing Ourselves is an updated edition of the book first published by Dr. Richard Gerber in 1988. Gerber is a practicing doctor who sought less invasive means than drugs and surgery for helping his patients, especially those with chronic illnesses. His book is the result of more than twenty years of research into alternative medical treatments.

Dr. Gerber describes his book as "an introduction to a new system of thinking about health and illness in general." He believes people are complex energy systems. Vibrational medicine includes all forms of medical treatment, such as homeopathy, that can affect human energy fields.

His book does not list various diseases or suggest remedies to heal those diseases. Instead, he discusses how energy functions, and how the vibrational remedies work to restore imbalances in human energy systems. He includes study after study showing the healing affects of homeopathy, flower essences, gem elixirs, and therapeutic touch.

The vibrational remedies don't contain a substance that promotes healing--they contain the "signature" or vibration of a particular substance. That vibration resonates with the vibration of human cells to stimulate healing. Dr. Gerber points out that "while the chemical agents of modern medicine may treat the symptoms of disease, vibrational remedies create energy changes at multiple levels in order to produce a more lasting healing."

Many people have tried vibrational remedies and know they work. Dr. Gerber provides the scientific data needed to validate that knowledge. Readers new to vibrational medicine will find his book a treasure trove of information; and those who have experienced it first hand will appreciate the thoroughness of his research and documentation. Vibrational Medicine belongs in the library of everyone interested in gentle, natural healing.

This review is from: Vibrational Medicine: New Choices for Healing Ourselves (Paperback)

Richard Gerber clearly and concisely outlines the many bodies which our consciousness inhabits, how the body can become "dis-eased" and the many ways it can be aided to recover with or without the use of drugs. Compulsive reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Working Model of Metaphysics, February 1, 2001

By 

"agruz17754" (Bridgeport, CT USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Vibrational Medicine: New Choices for Healing Ourselves (Paperback)

This book is "the Bomb" for anyone using "hands-on" healing energies or working with mind-body medicine. Dr. Gerber provides a working conceptual model for how we do what we do when we "lay on" hands or guide a client through a transformational shift in conciousness. As a Reiki III, trained in Healing Touch and some Tibetan modalities, I am grateful for an explanation that the left side of my brain can deal with!! As a Naturopathic physician, it is great to have homeopathy and mindbody interactions explained on a more scientific level, with a review of the available supportive research. I strongly recommend this book for anyone who wants a better understanding of themselves and the universe.
