Beyond Radiation

Pain control with millimeter waves + Professor Sitko's theory

One of the most common therapeutic effects of millimeter waves (MW) reported during the treatment of different diseases was the relief of concomitant pain.

Clinical trials have been done with:
- Headache
- Joint pain
- Postoperative pain

 

Pain-relief effect of MW described was the immediate onset of analgesia / hypoalgesia during the application of MW therapy. Pain relief from MW was already detectable after several minutes of exposure and lasted from several hours to several days.

MW probably influences the immune system: at least it was shown in patients with disorders where the immune system was affected.

The effect of millimeter waves is remote to the site of exposure. Almost all the authors applied MW to acupuncture points.

Pain and electromagnetic framework - professor Sitko

 

"Eperience of quantum medicine shows that pain is the reaction of organism on the deformation of electromagnetic framework, but not on the pathology of body itself. "

- Professor Sergey Sitko

I have been following several years the work of millimeter wave therapy pioneer, professor Sergey Sitko. What does this Sitko's "deformation of electromagnetic framework" could mean? It most likely refers to biofield of a human being and "holes" in it. Similarly, pain management means correcting the deformation of electromagnetic framework. It also points out that through meridians can the pain be treated and controlled, even far away from the actual painful spot.

It is also good to think what causes this deformation of electromagnetic framework? It is radiation (non-ionising & ionising), chemicals, heavy-metals, negative thoughts etc. When trying to prevent it, quite useful is to avoid RF/IF/ELF-exposure (recommend EUROPAEM 2016 EMF Guideline levels) , especially during night time, but also at the workplace if possible. An example below.

Finally, my personal observations: after using millimeter-wave therapy:

- First my immune system got better (no more 'mini-colds') and thereafter also daily pains got away. I have not had any more (my) typical lower back pains for several months.

- Additionally, my bruises and wounds get healed faster with immediate MW treatments after mini-accidents.

Millimeter Wave Therapy - 2 Review Papers

Following two reviews provide useful information about 'Millimeter Wave (MW) Therapy' , 'Extremely High Frequency (EHF) Therapy' aka 'Microwave Resonance Therapy':

Rojavin, M. A., & Ziskin, M. C. (1998). Medical application of millimetre waves. QJM: Monthly Journal of the Association of Physicians, 91(1), 57–66. https://academic.oup.com/qjmed/article/91/1/57/1570406 --> PDF

"With medical MW generators now employed in hospitals and clinics in the former USSR and some European states (some estimates range as high as 50 000 units, thousands of patients undergo treatment with MWs every year. Some authors,claim that there are several hundred thousand patients who have been treated with MWs."

"A brief, low-intensity MMW exposure can change cell growth and proliferation rates, activity of enzymes, state of cell genetic apparatus, function of excitable membranes and peripheral receptors; it can alleviate stress reactions, stimulate tissue repair and regeneration, etc."

Please, note: Both reviews are made already 20 years ago when I write this blog posting. However, as reviews they document quite nicely those (current) effects of millimeter wave (MW) treatments. Worth opening and reading those PDFs!

RF Radiation Levels in a City - Environmental and Health Viewpoints (Stockholm)

The Hardell research group has already several years documented the increase of RF radiation levels in Stockholm. The following six research papers will be perhaps useful for other major cities as well, when discussing about health and environmental impacts of mobile phone base stations.

Hardell, L., Koppel, T., Carlberg, M., Ahonen, M., & Hedendahl, L. (2016). Radiofrequency radiation at Stockholm Central Railway Station in Sweden and some medical aspects on public exposure to RF fields. International Journal of Oncology, 49(4), 1315–1324. https://doi.org/10.3892/ijo.2016.3657

"In conclusion, the aim of the present study was to assess the exposure to RF radiation in a public place in Sweden visited daily by many persons. We compare our results with nonthermal effects in laboratory investigations and also discuss results in animal studies on the carcinogenic risk. In epidemiological studies an increased risk of glioma and acoustic neuroma has been found in persons exposed to RF radiation from wireless phones. In animal studies RF radiation has been shown to promote tumours but also cause glioma and acoustic neuroma. There are also by now mechanistic studies such as oxidative effects from low-intensity RF radiation. We call for upgrading the carcinogenic potential to IARC Group 1, the agent causes cancer in humans.

In this study, real-time band specific exposure measurements at a public place showed comparatively high exposure from all mobile telephone and networking bands. The highest contributors to the exposure were download frequencies from the base stations at GSM+UMTS 900, UMTS 2100, LTE800, LTE 2600 and GSM 1800 bands. However, these RF exposure levels in this study are transient, since people are generally passing through the areas tested, except for subsets of people, i.e., security and police staff, cafe workers, shop workers, janitors, information counter people, who are there for hours each day of work."

The next FIVE research papers:

Measuring Sensivity to Electromagnetic Fields - HRV as an Indicator

Dr. Lebrecht von Klitzing was perhaps one of the first pioneers studying heart, brain and central nervous system (CNS) reactions to ELF/RF radiation:

Tuengler, A., & von Klitzing, L. (2013). Hypothesis on how to measure electromagnetic hypersensitivity. Electromagnetic Biology and Medicine, 32(3), 281–290. https://doi.org/10.3109/15368378.2012.712586

Their conclusion: "Simultaneous recordings of heart rate variability, microcirculation and electric skin potentials are used for classification of EHS."

The interesting point here is that this is an objective method, which reveals also people who react with their heart, but do NOT get any symptoms. EHS (Electrical Hyper-Sensitivity) can therefore be much larger phenomenon than earlier anticipated. The HRV-measurement method is known to many medical doctors and this enables a new way of screening sensitives. However, as von Klitzing and also William (Bill) Rea have pointed out, the testing needs to take place in a chemically and electromagnetically clean environment + there needs to be several hours extra time (flush-out period) for test-subjects to recover from travel/electrosmog before the actual testing begins.

 

Other researchers have continued heart rate variability (HRV) measurements:

Koppel, T., Vilcane, I., Carlberg, M., Tint, P., Priiman, R., Riisik, K., ... & Visnapuu, L. (2015). The effect of static magnetic field on heart rate variability-an experimental study. Agronomy Research, 13(3), 765-774.

(Exposing with 150 µT DC magnetic field, 2 minute long phases. When the (normal) earth magnetic field is about 50 µT, in non-exposure phases)

Koppel, T., Vilcane, I., & Ahonen, M. (2018). 50 Hz magnetic field affects heart rate variability – an experimental study. 2018 EMF-Med 1st World Conference on Biomedical Applications of Electromagnetic Fields (EMF-Med), 1–2. https://doi.org/10.23919/EMF-MED.2018.8526072

(Exposing with 4 µT AC magnetic field, 2 minutes long phases. I was also involved in this study.)

Misek, J., Belyaev, I., Jakusova, V., Tonhajzerova, I., Barabas, J., & Jakus, J. (2018). Heart rate variability affected by radiofrequency electromagnetic field in adolescent students. Bioelectromagnetics, 39(4), 277–288. https://doi.org/10.1002/bem.22115

What is interesting in this Misek et al. (2018) paper,  HRV-readings and reactions could be recorded, when the test subject was in laying in a horisontal position. Exposure was from a mobile phone, in call/listen-mode.

 

A WISH: Hopefully these HRV-measurements, perhaps with microcirculation and electric skin potential measurements, will r-e-p-l-a-c-e badly constructed provocation studies ála Rubin. Similar suggestion about better research methods has been provided Dr. Dariusz Leszczynski (to the WHO), who has wisely proposed sensitivity research based on proteomics.  I find it very counter-productive to do/finance provocation studies, since often those studies have A) sensitives in control-groups B) immediate symptom expectations after exposure C) poorly shielded test laboratories D) no flush-out periods possible.

I am curious to hear more comments about HRV-testing.

 

Increase of thyroid cancer - mobile phones

We looked at the growth of thyroid cancers based on Swedish statistics. There is already some evidence that radiofrequency (RF) radiation is one co-factor in the increase of thyroid cancer and other thyroid-related health problems.

Our research paper:

Carlberg, M., Hedendahl, L., Ahonen, M., Koppel, T., & Hardell, L. (2016). Increasing incidence of thyroid cancer in the Nordic countries with main focus on Swedish data. BMC Cancer, 16(1), 426.

A specific risk-group is visible in statistics and the risk has increased especially from year 2005:

Picture: Joinpoint regression analysis, age-standardised incidence of thyroid cancer, women 20–39 years 1970–2013 (Carlberg et al., 2016, 4)

 

We also looked at how mobile phones have 'developed', where the antenna is and how RF radiation effects thyroid gland. Based on that the following picture was illustrated.

Smart phones have (commonly) antennas in the lower part of the mobile phone, close to thyroid gland. 

 

CONCLUSIONS: We postulate that the whole increase (of thyroid cancer) cannot be attributed to better diagnostic procedures. Increasing exposure to ionizing radiation, e.g. medical computed tomography (CT) scans, and to RF-EMF (non-ionizing radiation) should be further studied. The design of our study does not permit conclusions regarding causality.

 

 

 

 

 

Has the Spin Machine Conquered Journalism? WCSJ Helsinki 2013 Conference

Risk communication in the world of EMFs often means: heavily financed down-playing of risks.

Now, The Spinning 'Dream Team' performs at the 8th World Conference of Science Journalists 2013 in Helsinki, Finland.

Their workshop is called "Reporting the health effects of WiFi routers, cell phones and smart meters".

 

Some astonishing, (previous) activities by the workshop presenters:

- Kenneth Foster has already in 2007 said that it is time to stop microwave health research. He has also written favourable reviews with long-time industry consultants. Update: he just made a Wi-Fi review with the support of industry-organisation Wi-Fi Alliance.

- Thomas Gervais is the initiator of a letter against existence of risk from EMF.

Gervais was arranging this workshop with / on behalf of Sense About Science, a strange pseudo-sceptic organisation which has received massive donations from pharmaceutical companies and recently from mobile industry.

- Thomas  Gervais  is behind a project call "Urban-Electro Brigade" which will offer free measurements in people's  homes and to test objects that emit radio frequencies, based on ICNIRP guidelines :-/. The brigade, whose creation was made possible by a grant from philanthropist, risk-denialist L.Trottier, will consist of six students of the Ecole Polytechnique, "independent scholars" who will be there "to collect questions, comments and concerns of people and to provide tools, references and arguments to help them see more clearly".  Cervais has been active in showing that there are absolute no health risks in smart meters.

- Clemence Lamarche sees 6 minute pulsed microwave (radiofrequency) radiation measurements ensuring safety of population and does not acknowledge biological studies  showing damage thousands time below ICNIRP/FCC/Safety Code 6 guidelines. 

- Adam Burgess  published a book on EMF where he mocks people who report health-risks. He is very fond of talking about panic and has been very systematic in denying risks during last years.

- Gunde Ziegelberger is the secretary of the ICNIRP (International Commission of Non-Ionizing Radiation 'Protection'). This closed club has rather strange way of evaluating scientific studies.


Wow, impressive "impartiality" and "sound science" viewpoints from the WCSJ 2013 workshop's like-minded presenters!

Why is there nobody providing an alternative, biology-originating, risks-acknowledging viewpoint?

I am asking this, because the workshop was advertised: "All panelists have been selected for their impartiality (no affiliation to either activist or industrial advocacy groups".

[Surprise, now this sentence has been removed from the program].

Is this an industry-friendly gathering similar to the Canadian Wi-Fi panel? It's  original leader has a merit like "has assisted industry with misperception and misinformation with respect to cellphone antennas".

I thought journalists should be critical and simultaneously open-minded ?!? I hope the WCSJ 2013 organising committee will discuss about ethical issues related to this workshop.


Update 28th June 2015:

- I never received any answers to my questions from conference organisers.

- I found out during Autumn 2013 that the original idea of the workshop came from a Nordic mobile industry representative. Please, ask Mr Gervais details about this!


---

EXTRA: A chemical viewpoint: If you look at this Helsinki WCSJ conference, it is was heavily sponsored by big pharmaceutical companies.

I am seeing a symbiotic relationship between mobile and pharmaceutical industries.

Please, let me provide an example:

"Interestingly, the expansion of wireless networks corresponds with the increase in prescription expenses for Methylphenidate, a drug whose chemical structure is related to Phenylethylamine (PEA) and which is indicated in cases of attention deficit disorder (ADD) "

Buchner & Eger (2011)
https://ecfsapi.fcc.gov/file/7520941673.pdf  , page 11. (link updated)

 

Simply put: Best-sellers in drugs seem to be those which control hormon (& alkaloid) levels which in turn have been (perhaps) imbalanced by pulsed microwave (radiofrequency) radiation.

Similar studies measuring chronic exposure effects in real-life conditions: [1],[2].

No wonder chemical, pharmateucical and mobile&power -industries have mutual interests to protect :-?

If you happen to be a real, critical science journalist, here might be an interesting starting point for your investigations.
