What is the Biofield1) a fluxive massless medium with the distinctive property of being
bioeffective In conventionally understood physics field means a region of space characterized by a physical property such as gravitational or
electromagnetic force or fluid pressure while energy means the capacity of a system to do work (Definitions of properties are from The American
Heritage Dictionary of the English Language Third Edition 1992) 2) The operative mechanism in hands-on healing modalities
Note The terms Energy Energy Field and Energy Body which are commonly used to describe the field are an unfortunate and unclear
mixture of meanings This mixing of terms has long caused confusion and brought derision from the other scientific disciplines

Surface electromyography apparatus as a measurement device for biofield research
results from a single case studyForbes MA Rust R Becker GJ
OBJECTIVESThe objective of this preliminary investigation was to determine if surface electromyography (EMG) equipment is
capable of detecting electrical signals that can be used as a measure in biofield researchDESIGN
These preliminary data were collected from one subject (a member of the research team) using the subject as his own control Resting state data are compared to data collected during a specific Healing Touch (HT) intervention
MEASURESElectrodes were attached to the back of the subject at eight acupoints The Model 544 EMG System (amplifier and
electrode assembly) (Therapeutics Unlimited Inc Iowa City IA) was used to acquire data The raw data were divided into discrete time segments and converted from the time domain into the frequency domain by performing a fast Fourier transform Integer frequency averaging was conducted to allow for ease of interpretation Using the
voltages at each frequency the signal strength was calculated in decibelsRESULTS
A 0-65 Hz frequency spectrum was obtained from the surface EMG apparatus An averaged baseline resting state frequency spectrum was definable for the subject that was stable with time for signal strengths gt0 dB When the HT practitioner attuned with the subject higher frequency components of the spectrum increased in amplitude
peaked then decreased throughout the interventionCONCLUSIONS
The conclusions drawn from these results is that the surface EMG apparatus has potential as a measurement device for biofield research Further experimentation using this device for biofield measurement is encouraged

Biofield therapies in cardiovascular disease management a brief review
Anderson JG Taylor AG
bull Though there have been advances over the last 30 years in the therapeutic approaches to cardiovascular disease (CVD) heart disease and stroke remain the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide Many medical therapies for CVD are associated with a number of side effects often leading patients to seek non-pharmacological treatments to complement standard care Referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used in addition to conventional health care Biofield therapies exist within this CAM domain and involve the direction of healing energy to facilitate general health and well-being by modifying the energy field What follows is a brief overview of three biofield therapies developed or used within the field of nursing (Therapeutic Touch Reiki and Healing Touch) surveying the use of these interventions for individuals with CVD and outcomes that may impact CVD risk factors and health-related quality of life

Biofield therapies and cancer painAnderson JG Taylor AG
bull The public and healthcare professionals have become increasingly aware and accepting of the benefit in physical psychological social and spiritual support for patients with cancer Patients with cancer often seek nonpharmacologic interventions to complement conventional care and decrease the pain associated with cancer and its treatment Most often referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these supportive therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used as adjuncts to allopathic health care Biofield therapies are CAM modalities that involve the direction of healing energy through the hands to facilitate well-being by modifying the energy field of the body This critical review of studies of biofield therapies emphasizes research using these modalities to decrease pain in patients with cancer Although the therapies have demonstrated clinical efficacy additional research is warranted Oncology nurses should familiarize themselves with biofield therapies so they can offer informed recommendations to patients with cancer experiencing pain

bull Though there have been advances over the last 30 years in the therapeutic approaches to cardiovascular disease (CVD) heart disease and stroke remain the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide Many medical therapies for CVD are associated with a number of side effects often leading patients to seek non-pharmacological treatments to complement standard care Referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used in addition to conventional health care Biofield therapies exist within this CAM domain and involve the direction of healing energy to facilitate general health and well-being by modifying the energy field What follows is a brief overview of three biofield therapies developed or used within the field of nursing (Therapeutic Touch Reiki and Healing Touch) surveying the use of these interventions for individuals with CVD and outcomes that may impact CVD risk factors and health-related quality of life

bull This paper provides a scientific foundation for the biofield the complex extremely weak electromagnetic field of the organism hypothesized to involve electromagnetic bioinformation for regulating homeodynamics The biofield is a useful construct consistent with bioelectromagnetics and the physics of nonlinear dynamical nonequilibrium living systems It offers a unifying hypothesis to explain the interaction of objects or fields with the organism and is especially useful toward understanding the scientific basis of energy medicine including acupuncture biofield therapies bioelectromagnetic therapies and homeopathy The rapid signal propagation of electromagnetic fields comprising the biofield as well as its holistic properties may account for the rapid holistic effects of certain alternative and complementary medical interventions

Surface electromyography apparatus as a measurement device for biofield research
results from a single case studyForbes MA Rust R Becker GJ
OBJECTIVESThe objective of this preliminary investigation was to determine if surface electromyography (EMG) equipment is
capable of detecting electrical signals that can be used as a measure in biofield researchDESIGN
These preliminary data were collected from one subject (a member of the research team) using the subject as his own control Resting state data are compared to data collected during a specific Healing Touch (HT) intervention
MEASURESElectrodes were attached to the back of the subject at eight acupoints The Model 544 EMG System (amplifier and
electrode assembly) (Therapeutics Unlimited Inc Iowa City IA) was used to acquire data The raw data were divided into discrete time segments and converted from the time domain into the frequency domain by performing a fast Fourier transform Integer frequency averaging was conducted to allow for ease of interpretation Using the
voltages at each frequency the signal strength was calculated in decibelsRESULTS
A 0-65 Hz frequency spectrum was obtained from the surface EMG apparatus An averaged baseline resting state frequency spectrum was definable for the subject that was stable with time for signal strengths gt0 dB When the HT practitioner attuned with the subject higher frequency components of the spectrum increased in amplitude
peaked then decreased throughout the interventionCONCLUSIONS
The conclusions drawn from these results is that the surface EMG apparatus has potential as a measurement device for biofield research Further experimentation using this device for biofield measurement is encouraged

Surface electromyography apparatus as a measurement device for biofield research
results from a single case studyForbes MA Rust R Becker GJ
OBJECTIVESThe objective of this preliminary investigation was to determine if surface electromyography (EMG) equipment is
capable of detecting electrical signals that can be used as a measure in biofield researchDESIGN
These preliminary data were collected from one subject (a member of the research team) using the subject as his own control Resting state data are compared to data collected during a specific Healing Touch (HT) intervention
MEASURESElectrodes were attached to the back of the subject at eight acupoints The Model 544 EMG System (amplifier and
electrode assembly) (Therapeutics Unlimited Inc Iowa City IA) was used to acquire data The raw data were divided into discrete time segments and converted from the time domain into the frequency domain by performing a fast Fourier transform Integer frequency averaging was conducted to allow for ease of interpretation Using the
voltages at each frequency the signal strength was calculated in decibelsRESULTS
A 0-65 Hz frequency spectrum was obtained from the surface EMG apparatus An averaged baseline resting state frequency spectrum was definable for the subject that was stable with time for signal strengths gt0 dB When the HT practitioner attuned with the subject higher frequency components of the spectrum increased in amplitude
peaked then decreased throughout the interventionCONCLUSIONS
The conclusions drawn from these results is that the surface EMG apparatus has potential as a measurement device for biofield research Further experimentation using this device for biofield measurement is encouraged

Biofield therapies in cardiovascular disease management a brief review
Anderson JG Taylor AG
bull Though there have been advances over the last 30 years in the therapeutic approaches to cardiovascular disease (CVD) heart disease and stroke remain the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide Many medical therapies for CVD are associated with a number of side effects often leading patients to seek non-pharmacological treatments to complement standard care Referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used in addition to conventional health care Biofield therapies exist within this CAM domain and involve the direction of healing energy to facilitate general health and well-being by modifying the energy field What follows is a brief overview of three biofield therapies developed or used within the field of nursing (Therapeutic Touch Reiki and Healing Touch) surveying the use of these interventions for individuals with CVD and outcomes that may impact CVD risk factors and health-related quality of life

Biofield therapies in cardiovascular disease management a brief review
Anderson JG Taylor AG
bull Though there have been advances over the last 30 years in the therapeutic approaches to cardiovascular disease (CVD) heart disease and stroke remain the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide Many medical therapies for CVD are associated with a number of side effects often leading patients to seek non-pharmacological treatments to complement standard care Referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used in addition to conventional health care Biofield therapies exist within this CAM domain and involve the direction of healing energy to facilitate general health and well-being by modifying the energy field What follows is a brief overview of three biofield therapies developed or used within the field of nursing (Therapeutic Touch Reiki and Healing Touch) surveying the use of these interventions for individuals with CVD and outcomes that may impact CVD risk factors and health-related quality of life

Biofield therapies and cancer painAnderson JG Taylor AG
bull The public and healthcare professionals have become increasingly aware and accepting of the benefit in physical psychological social and spiritual support for patients with cancer Patients with cancer often seek nonpharmacologic interventions to complement conventional care and decrease the pain associated with cancer and its treatment Most often referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these supportive therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used as adjuncts to allopathic health care Biofield therapies are CAM modalities that involve the direction of healing energy through the hands to facilitate well-being by modifying the energy field of the body This critical review of studies of biofield therapies emphasizes research using these modalities to decrease pain in patients with cancer Although the therapies have demonstrated clinical efficacy additional research is warranted Oncology nurses should familiarize themselves with biofield therapies so they can offer informed recommendations to patients with cancer experiencing pain

Surface electromyography apparatus as a measurement device for biofield research
results from a single case studyForbes MA Rust R Becker GJ
OBJECTIVESThe objective of this preliminary investigation was to determine if surface electromyography (EMG) equipment is
capable of detecting electrical signals that can be used as a measure in biofield researchDESIGN
These preliminary data were collected from one subject (a member of the research team) using the subject as his own control Resting state data are compared to data collected during a specific Healing Touch (HT) intervention
MEASURESElectrodes were attached to the back of the subject at eight acupoints The Model 544 EMG System (amplifier and
electrode assembly) (Therapeutics Unlimited Inc Iowa City IA) was used to acquire data The raw data were divided into discrete time segments and converted from the time domain into the frequency domain by performing a fast Fourier transform Integer frequency averaging was conducted to allow for ease of interpretation Using the
voltages at each frequency the signal strength was calculated in decibelsRESULTS
A 0-65 Hz frequency spectrum was obtained from the surface EMG apparatus An averaged baseline resting state frequency spectrum was definable for the subject that was stable with time for signal strengths gt0 dB When the HT practitioner attuned with the subject higher frequency components of the spectrum increased in amplitude
peaked then decreased throughout the interventionCONCLUSIONS
The conclusions drawn from these results is that the surface EMG apparatus has potential as a measurement device for biofield research Further experimentation using this device for biofield measurement is encouraged

bull Energy medicine modalities also known as biofield therapies are perhaps the most mysterious and controversial complementary alternative medicine therapies Although many of these approaches have existed for millennia scientific investigation of these techniques is in its early stages much remains to be learned about mechanisms of action and efficacy These techniques are increasingly used in clinical and hospital settings and can be incorporated into an integrative primary care practice This article describes several energy medicine and biofield therapies and outlines key elements they hold in common Several specific approaches are described Research findings related to the efficacy of energy medicine are summarized and proposed mechanisms of action and safety issues are discussed

Biofield therapies in cardiovascular disease management a brief review
Anderson JG Taylor AG
bull Though there have been advances over the last 30 years in the therapeutic approaches to cardiovascular disease (CVD) heart disease and stroke remain the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide Many medical therapies for CVD are associated with a number of side effects often leading patients to seek non-pharmacological treatments to complement standard care Referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used in addition to conventional health care Biofield therapies exist within this CAM domain and involve the direction of healing energy to facilitate general health and well-being by modifying the energy field What follows is a brief overview of three biofield therapies developed or used within the field of nursing (Therapeutic Touch Reiki and Healing Touch) surveying the use of these interventions for individuals with CVD and outcomes that may impact CVD risk factors and health-related quality of life

Biofield therapies and cancer painAnderson JG Taylor AG
bull The public and healthcare professionals have become increasingly aware and accepting of the benefit in physical psychological social and spiritual support for patients with cancer Patients with cancer often seek nonpharmacologic interventions to complement conventional care and decrease the pain associated with cancer and its treatment Most often referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these supportive therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used as adjuncts to allopathic health care Biofield therapies are CAM modalities that involve the direction of healing energy through the hands to facilitate well-being by modifying the energy field of the body This critical review of studies of biofield therapies emphasizes research using these modalities to decrease pain in patients with cancer Although the therapies have demonstrated clinical efficacy additional research is warranted Oncology nurses should familiarize themselves with biofield therapies so they can offer informed recommendations to patients with cancer experiencing pain

Biofield therapies in cardiovascular disease management a brief review
Anderson JG Taylor AG
bull Though there have been advances over the last 30 years in the therapeutic approaches to cardiovascular disease (CVD) heart disease and stroke remain the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide Many medical therapies for CVD are associated with a number of side effects often leading patients to seek non-pharmacological treatments to complement standard care Referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used in addition to conventional health care Biofield therapies exist within this CAM domain and involve the direction of healing energy to facilitate general health and well-being by modifying the energy field What follows is a brief overview of three biofield therapies developed or used within the field of nursing (Therapeutic Touch Reiki and Healing Touch) surveying the use of these interventions for individuals with CVD and outcomes that may impact CVD risk factors and health-related quality of life

Anderson JG Taylor AG
bull Though there have been advances over the last 30 years in the therapeutic approaches to cardiovascular disease (CVD) heart disease and stroke remain the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide Many medical therapies for CVD are associated with a number of side effects often leading patients to seek non-pharmacological treatments to complement standard care Referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used in addition to conventional health care Biofield therapies exist within this CAM domain and involve the direction of healing energy to facilitate general health and well-being by modifying the energy field What follows is a brief overview of three biofield therapies developed or used within the field of nursing (Therapeutic Touch Reiki and Healing Touch) surveying the use of these interventions for individuals with CVD and outcomes that may impact CVD risk factors and health-related quality of life

Biofield therapies and cancer painAnderson JG Taylor AG
bull The public and healthcare professionals have become increasingly aware and accepting of the benefit in physical psychological social and spiritual support for patients with cancer Patients with cancer often seek nonpharmacologic interventions to complement conventional care and decrease the pain associated with cancer and its treatment Most often referred to as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) these supportive therapies consist of a heterogeneous group of modalities used as adjuncts to allopathic health care Biofield therapies are CAM modalities that involve the direction of healing energy through the hands to facilitate well-being by modifying the energy field of the body This critical review of studies of biofield therapies emphasizes research using these modalities to decrease pain in patients with cancer Although the therapies have demonstrated clinical efficacy additional research is warranted Oncology nurses should familiarize themselves with biofield therapies so they can offer informed recommendations to patients with cancer experiencing pain

bull Energy medicine modalities also known as biofield therapies are perhaps the most mysterious and controversial complementary alternative medicine therapies Although many of these approaches have existed for millennia scientific investigation of these techniques is in its early stages much remains to be learned about mechanisms of action and efficacy These techniques are increasingly used in clinical and hospital settings and can be incorporated into an integrative primary care practice This article describes several energy medicine and biofield therapies and outlines key elements they hold in common Several specific approaches are described Research findings related to the efficacy of energy medicine are summarized and proposed mechanisms of action and safety issues are discussed

Biofield therapies form a subcategory of the domain of energy therapies as defined by the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine Specific biofield therapies addressed in this article include Therapeutic Touch Healing Touch Polarity Therapy Reiki and Qigong This article will identify core concepts in biofield therapies review controlled trials of the use of biofield therapies with patients with cancer describe the process of biofield therapies implementation in one cancer center and suggest research to benefit not only patients with cancer but also family members and oncology professionals
