Radionics

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Radionics is a form of alternative medicine that claims disease can be diagnosed and treated by applying energy frequencies to the body. This concept is based on the idea that an imbalance in the body's energy fields can cause illness. Radionics is not widely accepted in mainstream medicine due to a lack of scientific evidence supporting its effectiveness.

History[edit | edit source]

Radionics was developed in the early 20th century by Albert Abrams, an American physician. Abrams believed that every disease has its own specific electromagnetic frequency, and that these frequencies can be used to diagnose and treat illness. Despite his claims, Abrams' theories were not accepted by the mainstream medical community.

Principles[edit | edit source]

Radionics practitioners use devices known as "black boxes" to diagnose and treat illness. These devices are said to detect the energy frequencies of a patient's body and to correct any imbalances. However, there is no scientific evidence to support these claims.

Criticism[edit | edit source]

Radionics has been widely criticized by the scientific community. The American Medical Association and the Food and Drug Administration have both stated that radionics devices are ineffective and potentially dangerous. Despite this, radionics continues to be practiced in some parts of the world.
