Can CMD detect cancer?

No. Cancer once developed cannot be detected by CMD. The activity of the anaerobic cells (plant cells) is beyond the CMD spectrum. However, before cancer develops, CMD can reveal an energy deficiency in the affected organ. If treated at this very earliest stage, sometimes years before cancer develops, the onset of the disease can be prevented.

Will CMD replace consulting your doctor?

No, but with CMD your online doctor is only a click away for intelligent, interactive consultation via the Internet.

Can CMD help in detection of colds?

Comparing the energy levels of certain organ systems before and after the onset of a cold will show you which underlying weakness the infection is coupled with. Retesting of the points while simply holding a remedy, i.e., Echinacea or golden seal, will result in easily detectable changes in the energy of the meridian systems.

Surprising, as it may seem, it is not even necessary to ingest the medicine. Merely holding a small quantity in the hand will cause a change in the readings. But, if holding the remedy optimizes the energy level, then taking the remedy promises good results

How can CMD help in vitamin therapy?

A: Testing for the necessity or effectiveness of vitamins, minerals, herbal remedies etc., is a strong point of CMD. The method used to find out what’s good for you are called “virtual therapy.” Extensive research has proven that just by holding a substance in your hand, your energy system will give the same indication as if you had taken it. So, go through those vitamins from your chiropractor’s program one by one, holding a capsule in your hand while you retest all the points.

Improvement of the energy level means “yes,” your body needs that vitamin as a supplement. A decrease in energy level means “no”, this supplement is counterproductive. No change of energy level means that your body can take it or leave it. (It’s a smart way of saving money!)

How does sore throat indicated in CMD?

A: The energy level in the meridians is a way of looking at the activity of the body’s regulatory system. Any immune reaction to an invading virus or bacteria means an increased activity in your body’s defense systems. This increased activity is the reason for your “elevated” energy levels. It’s healthy and it means that your body has reserves.

How can CMD help in food allergy testing?

Testing yourself before and after a meal produces some dramatic readings! If you thought you could put away that cheesecake and flush it down with a double espresso without comment from your body, you’re mistaken, and the CMD retest after this snack will express your body’s reaction to these foods. A less complex reaction will appear after consuming a SINGLE food, i.e., a glass of milk. If just this single food brings down your energy reading, there is reasonable suspicion that the food is not well tolerated by your body or may even cause an allergy. Just holding the food while testing will also be sufficient to indicate tolerance or intolerance to this food. If a particular food repeatedly tests as intolerant, this points to a food allergy.

How does physical activity affect my CMD readings?

There are several effects to take into account:

1.   Sweating or moistening the skin (e.g., taking a shower, or after swimming) will result in decreased skin resistance. Since you are measuring the combination of meridian resistance and skin resistance, with each single CMD measurement, reduced skin resistance will change (“improve”) your readings.

2.  Short and light physical activity (i.e. a walk or easy bike ride) usually leads to a state of energy activation. So, regular, mild activities will result in better CMD readings, and, as you know, in better health.

3.  Strenuous, long-term exercise will most probably result in a weakening of energy. (Marathon runners don’t have the best CMD readings).
