Book Description

Publication Date: January 5, 2005

There are enough books and websites about what Lyme Disease is and which ticks carry it. But there is very little useful information for people who actually have a case of Lyme Disease that is not responding to conventional antibiotic treatment. Lyme Disease sufferers need to know how to get better, not how to identify a tick. This book is about how experimental frequency devices known as "rife machines" have been used for over 15 years in private homes to successfully fight Lyme Disease. Many Lyme Disease sufferers have heard of rife machines, some have used them. But until now there has not been a concise and reliable source to explain how and why they work, and how and why other therapies fail. In the book you will learn that rife machine therapy offers numerous advantages over antibiotic therapy, including sustained effectiveness, affordability, convenience, autonomy from the medical establishment, and avoidance of candida complications. The Foreword for the book is by Richard Loyd, Ph.D., one of the nation s leading rife machine researchers and coordinator of the annual Rife International Health Conference. Rife machine expert Marc Fett and Coil Machine inventor Doug MacLean contribute their knowledge and experience in the book, as do several other prominent rife machine experts and Lyme Disease researchers. Throughout the book you will find stories of Lyme Disease sufferers who have used rife machines. You'll learn how they did it, what they would have done differently, and their experiences with other therapies. This book is user-friendly for people who have no prior knowledge of rife machines, but advanced enough to encompass documented scientific research and Lyme Disease pathology. The book contains critical rife machine information organized into a straight-forward and concise format. A detailed index and table of contents allow navigation to the topics you are interested in. The book takes a practical, down-to-earth approach which allows you to learn about: -Why rife machines work after other therapies fail, including specific problems with antibiotics -Sample rife machine treatment schedules and sessions -The most effective rife machines: High Power Magnetic Pulser, EMEM machine, Coil Machine (also known as the Doug Device) and AC Contact Machine -Explanation of the "herx reaction" and why it indicates progress -Critical evaluation of leading alternative therapies, including mercury detoxification, ozone therapy, homeopathy, hyperbaric oxygen chamber, herbs, colloidal silver, colostrum, and more -How use of multiple machines can lead to synergistic benefit and accelerated recovery -What it feels like to use rife machines - discover the steps to healing -Extensive discussion of antibiotics, including natural and herbal antibiotics -The intriguing story that led to use of rife machines as a treatment for Lyme Disease - how it all began -Answers for skeptics -Safety and side effects -A description of rife machine components -How to combine rife machine therapy with other supportive therapies to accelerate progress -Many other carefully selected subjects

Editorial Reviews

Review

From Stephen Harrod Buhner, author of Healing Lyme -- I finally had the time to read your book on rife machines and Lyme Disease and just wanted to let you know that I think you did a great job. It is well written, very clear, and explains the concepts very well. In addition, your voice through the text is exceptionally supportive and kind. I feel that I know enough about rife machines now to be able to respond well to those who ask me about them. I am beginning to think that the most effective approach now might just be the Core Protocol herbal regimen [as discussed in my book] and rife machines. --Stephen Harrod Buhner, author of Healing Lyme

From Richard Loyd, Ph.D. -- This book provides life-saving insights for Lyme Disease patients. --Richard Loyd, Ph.D., coordinator of the Annual Rife International Health Conference

From Robert Andrew, M.D. -- Finally a valid, non-pharmaceutical treatment for this devastating illness. --Robert Andrew, M.D.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gave me my life back!, April 4, 2006

This review is from: When Antibiotics Fail: Lyme Disease and Rife Machines, with Critical Evaluation of Leading Alternative Therapies (Paperback)

I bought this book and a machine 10 months ago and followed the recommendations almost completely as outlined and I'm now back to 95% healthy and some days even 100%. Rife combined with other recommendations in the book have given me back my life.

Another reason the book was so helpful to me was that it helped my wife and family FINALLY understand what I was going through. I can't tell you what a great benefit and relief this was to me.

5.0 out of 5 stars More than rife therapy - a great explanation of Lyme Disease itself, December 27, 2005

By 

JB (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: When Antibiotics Fail: Lyme Disease and Rife Machines, with Critical Evaluation of Leading Alternative Therapies (Paperback)

I have been reading "Lyme Disease and Rife Machines" by Bryan Rosner. What I really find fascinating about this book is the explanation of Lyme. I have been sick the better part of 38 years, so I have had a lot of time to comptemplate what is going on. I have done a ton of research, not specifically about Lyme alone, but the idea that I was sick due to chronic infection, likely due to some sort of stealth pathogens. I have been fortunate to work with some great doctors even before I knew I had Lyme. Once I learned I had Lyme, so much came into even clearer focus.

In this book it was so exceiting to see that many researchers of Lyme have come to the same conclusions that I had. Not because I am some science wizz, but because of my own personal experiences.

Example: I have had the idea for probably 4 years, that there really is nothing wrong with our immune system. It works just like it should, but it was having a tough time finding this pathogen. This book explained in very easy language what I have been suspecting for some time.

I've also wondered for some years, what all of the fluish feelings we have are all about. I've wondered if it feels so much like the herx, then maybe it is like the herx. The book again confirms this thought. When we feel the crappiest it is likely our immune system is doing what it should do and it is trying to bring this infection under control. It's killing the infection and we are basically herxing. Then we may feel better for a bit, and that is because the Lyme goes into a defensive position waiting for our immune system to back off. So amazing these little creatures!

So if you haven't read this book, you really ought too, EVEN if you aren't interested in Rifing. It is one of the clearest and extensive explanations of how Lyme works I've seen yet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely essential reading for Lyme sufferers, May 11, 2005

By 

Janet in Minnesota (MN, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: When Antibiotics Fail: Lyme Disease and Rife Machines, with Critical Evaluation of Leading Alternative Therapies (Paperback)

A supurb book which goes beyond rife therapy to include analysis of dozens of other alternative Lyme Disease therapies. Well written and to the point with an extensive index and long, organized table of contents. Well worth the price, this book condenses hundreds of important Lyme Disease concepts into a precise and user-friendly format.

I have already bought copies of the book for friends and people in my Lyme Disease support group. More Lyme Disease sufferers need to know about rife machines, because antibiotics do not always cure this condition. Anyone researching Lyme Disease and looking to understand all their options should buy this book. In the time it takes to read it cover-to-cover you will become educated in many aspects of Lyme Disease pathology as well as various alternative therapies available.

I cannot recommend this book highly enough. I only wish I could have purchased it earlier.
