Frequently asked questions
What is Bioresonance Hair testing?
Bioresonance therapy is one of a number of procedures including homeopathy, acupuncture and other naturopathic procedures within the area of empirical healing.
Bioresonance therapy was invented in Germany in 1977 by Franz Morell and his son-in-law, engineer Erich Rasche. The concept of bioresonance is that the machine’s electromagnetic waves create a resonance in our body’s cells which, in turn, brings about the desired effects.
BioResonance is a safe and gentle, non-invasive alternative therapeutic technique designed on the premise that all particles of matter generate electromagnetic energy.
How is a hair sample tested for sensitivities?
A hair sample is tested for sensitivities through a process called Bioresonance Testing. This method involves analysing
the electromagnetic frequencies emitted by the hair sample.
The test evaluates the body’s response to these frequencies, which correspond to various substances or items. By
detecting changes in electromagnetic waves, bioresonance testing identifies potential sensitivities or intolerances to
certain foods, environmental factors, or other substances.
During the test, the hair sample is exposed to specific frequencies associated with different items or substances, and the equipment measures the body’s reaction, providing
insights into potential sensitivities. This non-invasive method is suitable for most individuals.
How accurate is testing by hair?
Bioresonance testing is quickly growing in popularity. As an alternate and non-invasive method for identifying potential
intolerances. It offers a great balance of accuracy, speed and affordability. This ensures you get the answers you are
looking for enabling you to make changes to your diet. You can stop experiencing the unpleasant and uncomfortable symptoms of food intolerances.
Throughout many years of bioresonance hair testing, thousands of customers have informed us how these tests have changed their life and eased their unwanted symptoms. Sensitivity testing is a great starting point to identify potential dietary and lifestyle changes which can have a profound impact upon one’s life.
Please note, bioresonance therapy is categorised under Complementary and Alternative Medicines (CAMs) which
covers a wide range of therapies that fall outside mainstream medicine. Tests and related information provided do not
make a medical diagnosis nor is it intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
Always seek the advice of your doctor or other qualified health provider if you have a medical condition or with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition and/or medical symptoms.
Does this test test for allergies?
It is important to reiterate that this test is NOT for allergy. It is easy to confuse allergy and sensitivity or intolerance as the different terms are often used interchangeably, which leads to misinterpretation. Allergy and sensitivity are not the same. Of course if someone is allergic to a food item it could be
described as being ‘sensitive’ however as a health condition allergy is different from sensitivity or intolerance. There are
a couple of fundamental differences between allergy and sensitivity; having food sensitivity may be uncomfortable and cause symptoms that, whilst annoying, embarrassing or even
debilitating, do not have the potential to be life-threatening
like those caused by food allergy; food sensitivities can
also change over time, it can often be managed through
implementation of a food elimination diet and/or dietary
changes, however food allergy tends to be lifelong. The
physiological response occurring in the body during an
allergic reaction differs entirely from that of intolerance
or sensitivity. Allergic reactions entail the activation of the
immune system and the involvement of antibodies, whereas
intolerance or sensitivity does not. Since hair testing does
not assess antibody levels, it cannot be employed to test for
allergies.
Can children use these tests?
We believe that any symptoms experienced by young children under the age of 6 should be looked into and
explored by a medical professional or physician. This is because the body, including the digestive and immune
systems of an infant or toddler, is still undergoing rapid development and change. . If you decide to proceed with
testing, we recommend ensuring your child receives a balanced diet while following the elimination phase. It’s
worth noting that even for older children certain sections aren’t applicable in the same way as they are for adults,
in particular - stress & inflammation, hyaluronic acid &
collagen.
Do you have to cut the hair or pull it out?
You do not have to cut hair, it can be pulled out from the root.
Hair can also be taken from a comb or hair brush if easier.
My hair is very short. Can you still complete the tests?
Your hair does not have to come from your head. It can come from your leg, arm or even chest. Please do not provide pubic
hair.
My hair is dyed, will this affect the result?
This will not have any effect on the results based on the testing method used.
Can sensitivities improve over time and should I re-test?
Symptoms related to sensitivities can potentially be improved through various dietary and lifestyle changes, depending on an individuals circumstances. These changes may include avoiding trigger foods, managing stress levels, improving gut health, and addressing any underlying health conditions. It’s very much about monitoring your symptoms and overall-wellbeing.
As for when to re-test for sensitivities, it largely depends on the individual’s situation. It is generally recommended
to re-test after a significant period of time has passed since the initial testing, 3-6 months or if there have been
substantial changes in diet, lifestyle, or health status. Additionally, re-testing may be considered if there is a
recurrence or persistence of symptoms despite previous interventions.
