Using Biophysical Principles Medicine
Continuously adapting to environmental changes, allergies are on B Peter Schumacher, M.D.
i
the rise worldwide, giving rise to widely varied and sometimes o
p
unclear symptoms in affected patients.
h
y
Patients with bronchial asthma, hay fever, or atopic dermatitis s
i
often experience a dramatically reduced quality oflife. The success c
a
rates ofpharmaceutical or hyposensitization treatments are unsat- l

isfactory, and are usually accompanied by a host ofadverse effects. T
h
e
Based on many years ofexperience in private pediatric practice, r
a
the author presents well-documented case histories in which
p
patients were successfully treated without the use ofpharma- y

ceutical products. He demonstrates that allergies can be healed o
f
when they are recognized as biophysical phenomena and treated A
according to the laws ofbiophysics. Based on the concept of ll
e
“bioresonance therapy,’’this book elaborates extensively and r
g
systematically the foundation and practice ofthe biophysical i
e
treatment ofallergies. s

This book was written based on my experience as a pediatrician. Having 5
studied and worked within the paradigm of allopathic medicine for many 6
years, it was by no means comfortable to leave the tradition of a university 7
career and venture into unknown territory where the safety of scientific 8
evidence soon disappears. 9
At one point in my career while I was working for a university hospital, I 10
started to feel unsettled. Having chosen the allopathic medical discipline, 11
I was becoming increasingly specialized in a particular field of medicine. 12
I felt, however, that I was losing what had originally motivated me to study 13
medicine and become a physician. I was an expert in medical philosophy, 14
which in fact seemed to serve only the scientific process (whatever that 15
means). Its original mission—to help the ill—no longer seemed that impor- 16
tant. 17
I was preoccupied with these kinds of thoughts and feelings for quite 18
some time. Consequently, I abruptly quit my university career. Hoping to be 19
in immediate contact with patients and realizing my ideals of a medical 20
practitioner, I opened my own private pediatric practice. 21
Even then, the joy of working independently and maintaining my person- 22
al integrity soon diminished. I was growing increasingly unsettled again. 23
At first I employed the conventional medical training I had received at 24
university. This was a paradigm that gave me the impression that it was pri- 25
marily concerned with mastering the implementation of the list of medi- 26
cations sold by the pharmaceutical industry. Indeed, “fundamental 27
chemistry” usually had a remedy for each ache and/or pain. 28
Having spent many years at the university hospital, I was not young in 29
years when I began my pediatric practice—still I was optimistic. My initial 30
optimism, however, quickly turned into despair when I saw and realized 31
that many patients I treated according to allopathic medicine were not able 32
to truly regain and/or maintain their health. Instead, many children devel- 33
oped a deceptive state of health (it might be better to say “visibly free from 34
symptoms”). They would suffer recurring illness, often with different symp- 35
toms to those initially treated. These symptoms then required additional 36
treatment. 37
During one of many sleepless nights I was thinking about how human be- 38
ings existed and survived before we benefited from chemical pharmaceuti- 39
cals. At that time it was not possible to treat (i.e. suppress) fever with 40
antipyretics, infections with antibiotics, a cough with antitussives, etc. 41
