Effects of Eden Energy Medicine Techniques on Pain Perception and the Human Biofield: A Comparative Study
Effects of Eden Energy Medicine Techniques on Pain Perception and the Human Biofield: A Comparative Study
By Gail Jett, PhD, RN, NP, LMP, AHN-B C and EEM-AP
Healthcare in our country has become obscenely expensive without any cost ceiling in sight in the foreseeable future. I am a board- certified Nurse Practitioner in both Women’ s Health and an Advanced Holistic Nurse. My career has spanned over 38 years, as I have become increasingly concerned with the cost of our healthcare as compared to its outcomes. We are spending more than any developed nation for the poorest outcomes. It has been said, continuing to do the same thing while expecting a different outcome is a definition of insanity.
As a nurse practitioner, my training and focus has been on preventative care; helping people make healthier decisions in terms of lifestyle, diet, exercise, emotional health and well-being. Three years ago, I decided to get my doctorate, which has been a wonderful journey of deep spiritual introspection while learning to do solid scientific research. Since I am also an advanced practitioner of Eden Energy Medicine, I decided to do my research study on chronic pain while utilizing Donna Eden’ s Daily Energy Routine and Zone tapping. These simple, yet powerful techniques can be done by anyone and do not require travel after they are learned. I am pleased to say that
my research study and dissertation had statistical significance in terms of pain reduction and increase in general well-being. This is an abstract of my study.
PURPOSE
Healthcare in the United States costs more than any other developed country, while its health outcomes are some of the poorest. Chronic pain management utilizes a significant portion of healthcare expenditures and currently involves additional expense for patients in terms of travel to other healthcare providers’ settings, and costs for visits and / or treatment and pharmaceutical management. A new source of patient-performed preventive healthcare practice for chronic pain management is necessary. The purpose of this study is to determine whether patient performed energy medicine techniques can reduce the perception of pain in subjects with chronic low back pain. Likewise, an additional purpose is to determine whether performance of these exercises can improve the robustness of the biofield.
MATERIALS
Materials used were the VAS Pain Scale, McGill Pain Scale, the BioWell GDV camera,
