The Resonance Effect: How Frequency Specific Microcurrent Is Changing Medicine Paperback – Illustrated, April 25, 2017

Very informative and a great update to energy work and the potential it has in helping out bodies heal. Well, written and explains so much of the back side of energy other sources don't share. It also explains when things don't work how important it is to look deeper to the "connecting" conditions that need to be worked on as well. I am so delighted to have found this book and look forward to sharing it with friends. I hope in the years to come energy work is the first go to in many situations. Western medicine has its place and can be life saving, however I don't believe it always the first place to go AND it doesn't offer total healing in most people. This book will help wake up people to other ways and is a book they can share to help others understand a new path to healing is possible.

Amazing, powerful stories of healing, and of a brave, intelligent and intuitive woman who has dedicated her life to helping her patients, while advancing her (and our) understanding and use of this once forgotten technology. She has even included technical aspects of the generation of the waveforms. In short, she has not held back in providing detailed levels of information.Several books have been written about the effects of electric currents in the bodies of humans and animals. This one tells the powerful stories of healing, often of healing the "incurable", with the skillful application of two simultaneous pulsed micro-current streams of amazingly low level, and carefully regulated pulse streams of two different and specifically targeted frequencies: one for the effect to be realized, one to target the specific type of tissue.The technology sounds completely incredible. How could this have been known for so long, and remained so completely buried? Carol asks these same questions, and provides backstory.The book also tells the powerful story of a woman (Carol) whose life has been dedicated to understanding and cataloging the effects of each frequency in each different (sometimes very complex) circumstance, and to teaching other caring medical practitioners how to effectively and safely apply these discoveries.My own understanding of the often amazing effects of multiple frequencies comes from my work to develop a unique form of neurofeedback (brainwave biofeedback) called Neuro-Gen HPN. I was motivated by a desire to help my daughter with epilepsy. Utilizing amazingly tiny pulses, containing mixed frequencies, and responding to the brain's own dominant EEG frequency in a kind of "dialog", practitioners in the US and around the world have experienced amazing improvements in the central nervous system symptoms of their clients. The MEG confirmed results have been documented in a small formal study of mTBI and PTSD in military personnel published in Brain Injury.Unlike the waveforms used in Frequency Specific Microcurrent, whose effects Carol McMakin so poignantly and dramatically describes, Neuro-Gen HPN uses unbelievably narrow pulses, designed to utilize the skin as the dielectric layer of a capacitor. The frequency component appears to form a kind of dialog with brain, helping it break up unhealthy, "stuck" EEG patterns, and to form the habit of more fully functioning behavior.It is particularly striking for me to notice some of the parallels in the development of these two different technologies and the commonalities in the issues involved.My copy of this book is weighted down with brass Book Darts, my favorite way of marking lines of specific interest for future referral. The value of knowing just one of these very specific frequencies and its effects, e.g. the one to reduce inflammation, is worth many times the price of the book. While reading the book will not substitute for the knowledge and experience of taking one of Carol's FSM courses, it is a very efficient and cost-effective way to start. Besides, I like her style of writing, and can relate to her story. Very highly recommended.

Using electricity as a healing modality has been around since ancient Greece. In the modern period, this modality gained popularity about 100 years ago as we entered the 20th century. Several physicians developed systems of reflex testing to determine the best frequencies to use and joined that with equipment to deliver micro-current to cure not only pain syndromes but serious infections and organ pathology. This was well before the age of antibiotics and other modern pharmaceuticals so this advance in therapeutics was most welcomed by patients. No so for government regulators, their henchmen and the defenders of the conventional medical model with its over reliance on patented drugs. The MDs ,DOs and DCs who employed these electronic healing tools were persecuted and prosecuted into near oblivion. These inventive physicians were so far ahead of the times that mainstream medical experts couldn't understand that micro-current could effect human physiology. They believed that electrical current had to burn tissue to be useful in medicine.The Resonance Effect, is a book about how this healing modality was saved from oblivion and delivered once again into the hands of waiting patients. It is also a personal story about how Dr. McMakin virtually single-handedly revived and advanced this lost healing art now called Frequency Specific Microcurrent. It recounts the sacrifices and life struggles that alternative medical professionals like Dr. McMakin willingly endure to provide to the public another way to approach healing .The FDA now approves TENS units for the treatment of pain. The current doesn't burn human tissue but its 1000 times higher than the levels used in FSM. Medical science now knows that there is a micro-current system within each of us and that there are resonant effects right down to the molecular level and irony or ironies, the FDA recently approved a micro-current system (not FSM) for the treatment of brain cancer. Another group is involved in clinical trials using micro-current in the treatment of primary liver cancer. It really makes you wonder how much better off humanity would be if we had a regulatory agency that actually worked for the people. A better system would be to evaluate drugs and devices for safety only and to leave the efficacy part to the free market. If something can cure, people will use it, if not it will fizzle out on its own. That would be ideal but for now, we must rely on professionals like Dr. McMakin, working within the current regulatory framework, to show us a better way.
