A BRIEF INTRODUCTION  TO RESONANT FREQUENCY THERAPY

By

James E. Bare, D.C.  

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Over the past 30+  years, the author has  been involved in device development, and dissemination of  information on frequency devices and their applications. My book "Resonant Frequency Therapy - Building the Rife/Bare Device" , is no longer available and the information in it is highly out of date. The original video tape of 1996, is also no longer available. Excerpts from the video tape may possibly be found on the web.  If one sees the frequency of 1150 hz being used here or there by others,   that came from my original research. The video tape showed the destruction of various non infectious protozoan micro organisms from the  transmitted field of the device. What I write below may seem controversial, but 30+ years ago... things were very different in regards to frequency devices. 

My book on how to self construct my device, and my video tape showing my device destroying multiple different types of protozoa was the springboard from which the modern day renaissance of  Rife instruments and frequency therapies was launched.  Prior to my device, book, and the early forms of this web site,  there was the book by Barry Lynes on the history of Dr. Rife and his accomplishments, which has had long term significant impact and helped raise public awareness of Dr. Rife to this day. There was another book " The Rife Way" by Mark Simpson, and a book by John Crane " The Polarity Research Manual" but these were obscure and not well known publications. There were a few web sites on Dr. Rife back in 1994, but they were of a historic nature regarding Dr. Rife , and a few even offered a frequency list.  There was also an existing underground sales and development of frequency devices, but they were all electrode based, and certainly not openly available,  and rarely heard about.   My work initiated the  organic growth,  awareness and development of frequency instruments based upon the pioneering principles and work of Dr. Rife.  The first wide spread use plasma field frequency device since the 1930's. From the public dissemination of my book and video tape , and the devices built from them, sprung up multiple email lists, web sites, parts suppliers, new frequency instruments and more. My book and video tape, along with the connectivity of the Internet and Email,  meant that the technology revealed could not be shut down or obliterated.  Those that had sat in the shadows of the background started to come forward as it became obvious what was happening was far to big to stop. People started searching for information on Dr. Rife. Looking for his old notebooks, photos and instruments realizing that something of great value and usefulness had been long overlooked. Nothing has been the same ever since. 

For those looking for a book on the use of frequency instruments for therapeutic purposes, Link:  The Rife Handbook of Frequency Therapy  by Dr. Nenah Sylver is the premiere source of information.

The Rife/Bare instrument utilizes patented designs and methods to produce a modern day recreation of a relatively unknown therapy device. A device first created and tested in the 1930's by Dr. Royal Rife, and then lost to humanity for the next 95+ years. Most readers have arrived at this web site looking for information relating to health.  It is the authors belief that the  future of frequency devices does not lie solely  in the manipulation of human physiologic processes.   The worlds human population continues to expand at a rate which is swamping the Earths carrying capacity . Overpopulation has resulted in the destruction of habitats and extinction of  other life forms that share our  fragile home. Frequency devices offer the potential of ; increasing the productivity of existing lands by significantly increasing crop yields , the widening of growing seasons so that extra crops or more varied crops can be grown ,  increasing the production of natural fibers used for clothing, the protection of stored crops from spoilage, improvement in the living conditions of  penned livestock  within their barns, increased production of foods made from molds and bacteria, increased fermentation rates, increased production of antibiotics, and  increased production rates of biofuels just to name some of the more prominent potential uses.  By combining the correct frequency, field strength, and field emissions, one can positively  impact and provide for an improved future for our planet. 

There is a wealth of published papers detailing the effects of  Electro Magnetic Fields ( EMF) .  These papers are cataloged at this searchable web site that is solely dedicated to EMF effects. This web site  is constantly updated with links and abstracts from  scientific papers published world wide on EMF effects.

To return to Rife. Clinical applications and success with Dr. Rife's machine extended through the 1930's, with treatment of a wide variety of micro organism based diseases. The late 1930's witnessed the founding of the Beam Ray Company to commercially produce the "Rife Ray" device. By the mid 1940's, the technology behind Dr. Rife's device was essentially lost. The Beam Ray Company had self destructed, and the scientific accomplishments of Dr. Rife became more urban legend than fact.

 A lot of effort over that past few decades has gone into understanding how Dr. Rife was able to create his effects, and this is what is known so far.  The understanding begins with his "Rife Ray".  The Rife Ray is a unique "ray" emission discovered by Dr. Rife. It is a "ray" occurring from a repurposed Piffard type X Ray tube of the early 20th century. Instead of high voltage electricity, Dr. Rife used  RF energies of different frequencies to excite his tube .  The tube body was constructed of leaded glass to block x-rays,  with a  protuding soda glass treatment window ( would pass x-rays)  in it. Like an early x-ray tube, the tube was placed close to his microscope slide or very close to the patient. Dr. Rife conducted experiments with each organism he discovered a treatment frequency for - his Mortal Oscillatory Rate, or MOR. The effects of the Rife Ray at micro organisms MOR, resulted in near instant death or inactivation of the micro organism.  These experiments proved that his "Rife Ray" was something unique and previously unknown. Each micro organsism tested by Dr. Rife had a unique to it MOR.  Dr. Rife tested and recorded the influence of heat, electricity, ultraviolet, X-ray , and infra red light upon each organism, proving that his Rife Ray was none of these emissions.  A comment - like a lot of x-ray tubes of the era, a third electrode was installed in these tubes which is known as an "anti cathode". Anti Cathodes are now obsolete , and  photos  showing Dr. Rifes use of  his Piffard tube revealed  the anti cathode was not energized. Just the Anode and Cathode ends were energized by Dr. Rife. Yes,  the treatment window will pass Ultra Violet radiation. However UV only works via an un obstructed line of sight. Dr. Rife conducted  a study that demonstrated the ability of the Rife Ray  to kill  micro organisms deep within horse flesh, thus UV is not the Rife Ray.

So what is the Rife Ray ? Some speculation is presently necessary. Potential suspects are Cathode Rays,  Electrical Fields, Electrostatic Fields, Magnetic fields, and perhaps an as yet unknown emission of some sort. What is known is that the Rife Ray created it's effects via varying oscillating  frequencies of RF range, that would create a resonance within the test organism. This resonance allowed the organism to absorb energy from the plasma tube and result in it's near instant  destruction.   Each micro organism had a unique frequency that would either kill or devitalize it. The resonance frequency was  named the  MOR  by Rife , or Mortal Oscillatory Rate. Nearly 100 years ago this concept was ground breaking.  One might argue it still is today !

Modern day research  has shown the oscillatory  electrical fields deemed TT or Tumor Treating fields,  can kill micro organisms and disrupt the division of cancer cells resulting in slowing of growth or outright death. These effects  have been laboratory proven to be  enhanced significantly via the use of specific frequencies. The required field strength  to disrupt cancer cells mitosis was with oscillating frequencies has been shown by the company Novocure to be  2 to 4 volts/cm.  Rife/Bare devices can easily provide 10 times that amount of field strength at 10  inches or more from the plasma tube.  However, unlike the Rife Ray, the effects are slow requiring many hours of exposure to create significant effects.

A plasma tube has an  Electrostatic Field that extends into the near field, or very close to the plasma tube.   This opens the possibility of  effects via electrostatic induction ( capacitive coupling) , a form of Wireless Resonant Energy Transfer  or WRET. In electrostatic induction, the amount of power transferred  increases;  with the frequency, the square of the voltage, and the capacitance . Cancer cells do have capacitiance !   A paper published in December 2025 discusses how the capacitance of cancer cells can be utilized for several different purposes.  

Link: " Cancer Cells as Capacitors : A  new approach to the study of cancer staging "   Meaning large amounts of power could potentially be transferred from the plasma tube to the resonant micro organisms or cancer cells using the electrostatic field as a medium and produce the sudden death of micro organisms as Rife was able to create. There is published evidence to back up this proposition. Experiments with Capacitive Wireless Power Transfer are now demonstrating energy transfer efficiencies of over 95% . Here is a paper on capacitive wireless energy transfer.  

Link:  " Research and Application of Capacitive Power Transfer System: A Review "

 The plasma tube converts RF energy into an intense Oscillating Electric Field. Resonant Capacitive Energy Transfer happens within what is  considered to be  the near field or non radiative region  This  non radiative region is within 1 wavelength of the plasma tube antenna. . In the non radiative region, the oscillating electric field and the oscillating magnetic fields are separate and power can be transferred via the electric fields using resonant capacitive coupling.  A Rife -Bare device operates with a carrier frequency of 27.12 Mhz, meaning one wavelength is 35.6 feet. . A vertically oriented tube would therefore have an effective radius of 35.6 feet , and potentially , be able to produce Resonant Capacitive Energy Transfer over  an area of 3981 square feet !

Here is a video showing the use of a 9 V battery and 0.1 ampere of current to light an LED array at 30 cm distance using Resonant Capacitive Coupling. This is an impossibility from the concept of the ISL and even via inductive coupling.

                  1930's Rife Wave Form as claimed in Rife Lab Video narrated by John Crane                                                    Recreated Rife Wave Form discovered in  2026

                                                                                                                                                                              Created by combining 1.604 MHz @ 3 V sine wave, 196kHz @ 12V sine wave  ( no mixer was used )

One other aspect to Dr. Rife's signal is that it is suspected it was gated, or turned on an off at some frequency. Otherwise the frequency being used for treatment was continuously  output. Continuous output oscillating signals of specific frequencies are used by the Company Novocure with their Optune device. A device that outputs frequencies in the 100 kHz to 300 Khz region which has  FDA approvals for the treatment of Pancreatic Cancer, Glioblastoma , and Mesothelioma. Other cancer types are in clinical trials. 

 Rife-Bare instruments use a fixed carrier wave of 27.12Mhz that is heavily overmodulated with the "treatment frequency " to create oscillating pulses  of the carrier wave. The pulse rate  is the same as the treatment frequency.  The  pulsed  Therabionics P1 device also uses a 27.12 Mhz carrier wave that is  pulsed,  but is non overmodulated. The P1   instrument has FDA approval for the treatment heptaocellular ( liver) cancer and is undergoing clinical trials for use with several other cancer types. In the P1 and Rife Bare devices,   the pulse repetition rate is the  treatment frequency, this differs from the original Rife concept in which the carrier frequency was the treatment frequency.  Lab testing has shown that a pulsed frequencies can be used as a  direct substitute for a carrier or continuous carrier waves, providing the  pulse repetition rate, is the same as the continuous output  device treatment frequency, with  no diminishment in effects. . 

The many intervening decades from Dr. Rife's time to our present day has seen the discovery of many new cellular physiologic mechanisms. It was not possible until the past few years to explain how Dr. Rife's instrument functioned and produced physiologic effects. Some people claim that Dr. Rife was able to "blow up" or explode cells and micro organisms. This concept of mechanical resonance - "shake it till it breaks" is highly limited , and the actual mechanisms behind the effects of frequency devices are quite biologically  and electrically complex. This knowledge has led the author to improve upon the original device, and to obtain patents. Patents which protect the unique methods, electrical concepts, and abilities to create  cellular physiologic manipulation, with the modern day Rife/Bare device.

Dr. Rife's Device or as some call it, a " Rife Machine " is a highly misunderstood instrument. This misunderstanding has arisen in part due to what people expect of the electronics, and the reality of how the device operates . Another set of misunderstandings have arisen from Dr. Rife's intentions for his device.  Dr. Rife  focused upon the destruction of micro organisms and viruses. The concept of physiologic manipulation using frequencies to affect various disease processes was not Dr. Rife's original focus or intent.  The original Rife Instruments  used a  radio transmitter to excite a gas plasma formed within a glass tube.    The emissions from the plasma inside the tube were what produced the devices capabilities.  In other words there are two important aspects to the device. First,  there is the driving electronics, and secondarily, yet most important , the plasma tube. Both the plasma tube and the electronics play a crucial role in the ability of the device to create physiologic effects .

Rife RF Plasma Instruments have been in production, and introduced into Interstate Commerce since the mid 1930's. Several different versions were produced in the mid 1930's through the late 1940's. These include those of the Beam Rays Company. A company formed specifically to create a  Rife Ray emitting device.  These units saw use within medical offices and clinics  in several different states. The latest discovery, a unit  made in 1938, was found in an attic in 2008.   Only a small number of pictures , and an even smaller number of machines have survived to this modern date.  You can see these units here:     Rife Units In Interstate Commerce    . 

Evidence based medicine is a developing science. If the reader has a biological background, and wonders how to integrate frequency devices into existing practice, they may find this hypothesis of interest. This is an idea I authored and presented to several pharmaceutical companies 2004.  This concept has been adopted by companies such as  Novocure 
( who may have come upon it independently ) , and is being investigated in a clinical trial with the Therabionics P1 device due to Novocures success with it..

Frequency Devices Operate on Scientific Principles !

On a fundamental level, all biochemical reactions are Electro Magnetic. Atoms and molecules are composed of charged particles which are in constant motion and vibration. Atomic, Molecular, and bond orbitals are just a way of saying that electrical charges are moving about an axis, within certain distance parameters set by the energetics of the system. Increases of energy within the system produces a corresponding increase of bond vibrational rates and can institute a variety of what are known as chemical reactions. Overlooked, is that charged particles are actually interacting, and charged particles, through the laws of electromagnetism, can easily be manipulated. The energies emitted via the interaction of " Chemical Bonds " are emitted as forms of electromagnetism. Heat, light, explosive energies, and so on are all forms of electromagnetism. Recognition of these laws, and their application within our bodies can, and already have, yielded new theories, new medications, and new treatments of human illness.

As an introduction, the author is going to discuss a few principles of electricity. When read, please begin thinking in terms of the body. Our bodies are a complex matrix of various electrical components. These components include; conductors, semiconductors, resistors, capacitors, inductors, and charge carriers. Charge carriers in our bodies are  ions, proteins, colloids, and crystals. All charges depend upon some sort of conduction system in order for the charges to move. In our bodies, charged particle flow may occur in association with cells, blood vessels, lymphatic ducts, inter and extracellular fluids, or any other biological analog of what might be considered a wire. When one discusses electricity, what one is really talking about is the movement of electrons. Electrons can be gained or lost from an object leaving the object with a net negative or positive charge. These charges can be relative. That is, an object may be negative due to a loss of electrons, but considered as positive in relation to the overall negative charge of it's surroundings. By gaining or loosing electrons, our bodies utilize many different charge carriers. For example, metallic ions such as K, Na, Mg, and Hyrodgen act as positive charge carriers. Negative charge carriers would be Cl, hydroxal ions, phosphates, sulphates, and electrons to name a few.

When electrons or any charged particles flow along a conductor, an electrical current is produced. This electrical current gives rise to what is known as an electrical field. The higher the number of charges flowing in the conductor, the higher the current. As these charges move in the conductor, a magnetic field is also produced. In short, a charged particle that moves creates both an electrical and magnetic field. The force or push behind the charges moving in the conductor is known as the potential, or as it is more commonly called, the voltage. The higher the voltage, the higher the push or force on the charges. In summation, high voltages give rise to high electrical fields, and high currents give rise to high magnetic fields. The reverse is also true, a high magnetic field can create a large current in a conductor, and a high electrical field can create a high voltage in a conductor.

On an atomic level, the basis of understanding of biochemical reactions lies in an understanding of electrons. Electrons are of primary importance in the establishment of a particular atoms or compound's chemical properties. These properties are often expressed as the ionization potential and electron affinity. That is, how easily an atom will gain or lose electrons. In context of this discussion, the application of an external electrical or magnetic field to the body will directly effect all the electrical properties and electrical component (semiconductors resistors, capacitors etc. ) analogs of the body. The end result will be an effect upon the bodies chemical, and thus physiologic activities.

Well established Scientific methods known as Electrokinetics, utilize the electrical properties of various compounds and charged ions to manipulate and analyze them. A few well known methods are Zeta Potential, pH, Isokinetics, Isoelectrics, Electrophoresis, Dielectrophoresis, Dynamic Eletrophoretic Mobility, Magnetophoresis, Electroacoustics, Magnetoacoustics, Streaming Potential, Sedimentation Potential, Electrostatics, Dynamic Mobility, Entrainment, Coherence, and Resonance ( Magnetic, acoustic, electrical, mechanical ) . There are several electrokinetic methods which are of significant importance to the use of frequency type devices. Some of these are  Electro-Osmosis , Electroendocytosis , Electronic Sonic Amplitude , Electro Conformational Coupling, , Ion Vibration Potential, Colloid Vibration Potential, and Electrostatics.

By considering all the above,  one sees that our present biochemical approach to health, using chemicals ( medicines)  to modify cellular physiology should  not be considered as the only manner  to restore health or treat disease.   It is obvious from the prior paragraphs, that the application of an external field can produce a positive physiologic influence upon the body. This fields must be of the correct frequency , amd can be either oscillating, pulsed , or further can be electrical or magnetic .

The scientific foundation for the utilization, application, understanding, and further development of Electrical, Magnetic, Electro-Magnetic, and Acoustic based frequency devices is very solid.   A large wealth of published papers exists on the ability of externally applied EM fields to manipulate body and cellular physiology. A review of some of the papers found  on the  EMF-PORTAL will certainly be a good way to read more about EMF effects. Application of these known principles to treatment has yielded empirical outcomes and results which are so common as to make the use of frequency devices a growing world wide phenomenon. A phenomena with an estimated 800,000   frequency devices and another 1.2 million electrical therapeutic devices of all sorts are  in usage just here in the USA. Usage, that,  for the most part, is entirely outside the mainstream medical/pharmaceutical system. Do these numbers seem an exaggeration ? They are probably low... As of April 2026,  Facebook alone, has various Frequency healing related groups that cumulatively total membership in excess of 1,000,000 ( one million ) people.

So what was Dr. Rife's Device , or as some call it, a " Rife Machine " ? Dr. Rife's device used a radio transmitter with either a fixed, or it is thought in some units, a variable carrier frequency .  The instrument  output a pulsed or gated  transmission , but importantly (!) the pulse or gate rate was not the treatment frequency.  Dr. Rife originally was only interested in the destruction of bacteria and viruses. He was not focused upon the treatment of ailments or various diseases. The concept behind his research  was to transfer energy of a specific frequency into a micro organism to cause it's near instantaneous destruction when the correct frequency was applied ( the MOR) .  

 How was such energy applied ? There are several important methods that are utilized to achieve energetic coupling. One technique Dr. Rife used to make the wave of his machine couple to the body was through the use of a special antenna. Instead of using a metal antenna, Dr. Rife's instrument coupled the output from the radio transmitter to a gas filled, glass tube,  with closely opposed electrodes. This special tube is technically known as a Phanotron Diode. The pulsed output energy from the radio transmitter ( the RF wave ) caused the gas to form a plasma and then glow when in operation. The close spacing of the electrodes, coupled with a gas at high pressures results in the tube plasma being able to  turn on and off quickly . One should think of a neon sign tube that is turned on and off, many thousands  of times a second for a comparison. The Phanotron Diode was filled with an inert gas ( typically Helium), or mixture of gasses such as argon, neon, and helium. Different gasses give off different colors or spectra. For example, Neon is orange, Argon is purple mauve, and Helium is pinkish white-gray.  Phanotron tubes typically are not used as diodes -that is where they rectify or pass only the positive part of a wave form. Generally their output is biphasic with both negative and positive aspects.

                                                             Rectified Output Using a Phanotron Tube  10 KHz                                                                           Typical  Biphasic Output of Phanotron Tube 500 KHz

For treatment purposes, Dr. Rife separated the phanotron tube from the rest of the devices equipment, using it as an antenna of sorts. It is believed that one of Dr. Rife's discoveries,  was that the patient  was made part of the transmitters output impedance. The plasma tube was placed close to the patient at about 8 to 12 inches distance. The patient  was grounded, and one output of the transmitter also went from the plasma tube to a ground. From this,  a resonant coupling could occur,  maximizing energy transfer when the correct resonance frequency is tuned.  It is important for a person to be grounded when trying to obtain benefit from a transmitted field.   An ungrounded body has a resonance frequency of around 70 Mhz, whereas a grounded body has a  resonance frequency of about 41 MHz, which is much closer to 27.12 MHz of the carrier wave in a Rife/Bare device . Without grounding the body establishes a form of capacitive coupling with the earth, meaning it is electrically isolated,  limiting absorption. Maximum absorption of the field occurs when one is grounded. 

Modern Phanotron tube, made in the Ukraine by  Econika , for use with the device.

The authors patented  instrument, like Dr. Rife's, utilizes a radio energy excited gas plasma tube as an antenna. Besides Econika, Two other plasma  tube manufactures are:

Link:  Bill's Plasma Tubes 

Link : Absolutely Neon 

Dr. Rife's device was a near field instrument, that is, the tube had to be placed within 4 to 8 inches of the patient.  The authors patented discoveries have created a device which produces effects in the near field. In this near field, the local E field is subject to the Inverse Square Law. That is power falls off with the square of distance. As is shown by multiple published papers on TT fields,  E fields above 3-4 V/cm can interfere with cancer cell division and replication . This field strength for a Rife/Bare device is generally within about 3 feet of the plasma tube.  The device also has effects at a distance.  There is evidence, that the wave emitted from the plasma tube of the authors device, if un-impeded by walls, has an effective radius of about 1 wavelength which at 27.12 MHz is just in excess of 35 feet. So how is this possible ?

There is a lot of misunderstanding about the plasma tubes used in a Rife/Bare device !! Gas plasma tubes in this application are not primarily RF antennas ! Gas plasma tubes as used in a Rife/Bare device are RF energy converters. A plasma tube converts pulsed RF into other forms of pulsed  energy radiation. This energy is expressed in many different  forms. These forms include; acoustic waves that can extend into the ultrasound regions, light - from near Ultra Violet to well into  the Far Infra Red regions and the generation of heat. It has been posited  that the plasma tube is a very strong emitter of Terrahertz radiation.  Some tubes are created specifically to create ozone, and if mercury is added to a quartz envelope tube, UV radiation may be created. The amount of RF emitted  from a well made device is less than 1 % of the input power to the tube ! A 150 watt transmitter may create less than 1/2 watt of RF emission.  Most of this RF is very broad band extending well into the microwave region, and thus, as in the 150 watt device example, the RF energy in any one harmonic is very minimal. This device is commonly used at a distance of 6 feet, where the measured RF field is almost non detectable.

In order to understand how the device works, it is necessary to discuss a few laws of physics and chemistry. There are multiple manners that the energy emitted from the plasma tube can be absorbed by the body. It must be remembered that the emissions from a plasma tube are very complex and broadband.  The plasma tube is not primarily an RF antenna.  The concept of RF wavelength matching between a radiative source and some absorber of that source emission as the only method of energy transfer or physiologic influence is antiquated.   Those that might dismiss the ability of a Rife/Bare device to produce physiologic effects using solely an RF wavelength method,  are making a simplistic error, for as has been pointed out, almost all RF energy that is input to a plasma tube, is converted into other forms of EM radiation.

There are several methods of energy transfer that occur with a Rife/Bare device. When energy is emitted from some the plasma tube antenna, it can be absorbed by an object when impedances match. Impedance is a measure of resistance - so when the impedance of the wave emitted from the plasma tube, and that of some part of the body match, energy is transferred or coupled. Impedance is a function that is related to frequency. The device produces not one frequency, but through the phenomena of harmonics, creates many thousands of frequencies simultaneously. Thus, energy transfers easily into a person, and does so through user defined selectivity. That is, by choosing different fundamental operational ( modulation) frequencies, the user chooses and creates different impedances.

There is a substantial E field around a plasma tube used in a Rife/Bare device .  As previously mentioned, when  a quartz plasma tube is utilized, this e field  is powerful enough to generate ozone.  The pulsed fields emitted from the  plasma tube used in a Rife/Bare device  are emitted as evanescent waves. Evanescent wave coupling can occur between two resonant circuits that are tuned to a fraction of each others wavelength. Closely allied to quantum tunneling, closely coupled resonators are being utilized to transfer power between a transmitter and receiver by inducing standing waves in the an inductor found within the receiver. As discussed earlier, cells, and the human body have electrical component qualities to them, and one of these qualities is that of inductance.  Shifts in the transmitters pulse output rate ( the modulation frequency) can create selective oscillations and standing waves within resonant objects within the body. This effect is often felt physically by the person undergoing exposure to the device. People often will respond that they can feel a particular frequency in an area of their body where there is some sort of difficulty. Only specific frequencies produce this response.

There is more to the transfer of energy between coupled oscillators, this involves the process of Entrainment.  Entrainment is a Law of Physics, and can be produced through gating the audio frequency of the device. What a fast gate rate does is to induce the effect of entrainment. Entrainment can be defined as :
“ The tendency for two oscillating bodies to lock into phase so that they vibrate in harmony. It is also defined as a synchronization of two or more rhythmic cycles. The principle of entrainment is universal, appearing in chemistry, pharmacology, biology, medicine, psychology, sociology, astronomy, architecture and more”.

Entrainment is associated with the phase of oscillation of an object. That is to simplistically say, as an object oscillates,  it is moving up and down at some particular rate. At a particular point in time, the object can be up, down, or or somewhere in between. Entrainment forces two objects to be in phase so that they move in synchrony. That is, they are up at the same time and down at the same time. When the phase of two resonant oscillations match ( in phase ), energy will transfer and summate to the resonant receiver of the transmitted energy. If the phases do not match, ( are out of phase ) the energies of the transmitter and receiver will cancel each other out! Even though they are resonant.  

In other words - if one targets an area of the body, or infectious organism with a frequency that they are resonant to, lacking entrainment, that frequency may be ineffective. The reason is this.; the area of the body or infectious organism has a different phase of oscillation than that of the (frequency ) being generated. The two are not “dancing” ( to use an analogy) in beat to the same frequency! If the external frequencies entrainment rate lacks adequate intensity, or adequate rate, there will be no entrainment by the body or organism to that external frequency ! Recent experiments by the author with entrainment have shown this to be a very powerful effect. Entrainment is often linked with another type of resonance known as Stochastic Resonance.

Another term has been coined to explain the electromagnetic waves emitted from an RF pulsed plasma tube  . This wave is called a "pseudo sonorous" wave. A soliton wave produced from the ionic discharge of the plasma within the  tube.

When one uses frequencies to produce physiologic manipulation, the output sequence of the frequencies is important. One must be careful of creating a damping effect by starting at a high frequency and trying to work downwards to lower frequencies. One can "force" a resonant response with enough energy, and then maintain the energy delivered by using a higher Hz frequency to continue forcing effects. Forced resonance is not a true resonance, but rather a response based upon the application of enough energy to set the oscillator in motion.  Think of a child on a swing, one may push faster and faster to force the swing to oscillate higher and at a faster rate. But if the swing is moving very fast and then all you do is push slower, and then slower yet, the  swing will  be damped in it's range and height of oscillation.

A Rife/Bare device creates  many thousands of different frequencies through the use of an AM type radio transmitter that is severely overmodulated. That is to say excessive amounts of audio are put onto the carrier wave. Normally such excessive audio, when demodulated would create distortion. By modulating a square audio wave, no demodulation distortion will occur. The demodulated wave form will be identical to the modulated wave form. Overmodulation creates a pulse of RF energy which is electrically shaped so that the rise and fall time of the pulse is very fast ( 1 millionth of a second in the OM-1 transmitter! ).  The plasma tube acts like an electrical mixer which creates harmonics, overtones, and heterodyne products . In a manner, a plasma tube is very much akin to a musical instrument. A string can be set to vibrate at a certain note, but how that note sounds is dependent upon the instrument the string is attached to. The string could be in a piano, a violin, or a guitar and all will sound different even though they play the same note. This difference between the instruments is due to the generation of frequencies( harmonic - overtone - heterodyne ) different from that of the fundamental note

.

Patented Transmitter producing pulses of 1.604 MHz.  Rise and Fall Times are under 25ns 

Although RF energy is a very minor emission of a plasma tube. Something very special occurs to that RF energy. Due to the shape of the plasma tube -i.e. a cylndrical or round radiator, the traditional hertzian RF wave radiated by a metal antenna, is converted into what is known as a Zenneck Wave. A Zenneck wave is a non hertzian RF wave whose field strength typically drops off as the square root of distance from the tube ( antenna). Published research has shown that the Zennick wave emitted from the tube exists as a non dispersive soliton. Energy is transferred more as a conductance and does not adhere to the inverse square law. This may have effects related to energy transfer via closely coupled oscillators. 

You can read more about Zenneck waves at these web sites.

Once the output of the plasma tube has been coupled to the body, the audio energy in the wave can be demodulated or stripped off the carrier wave. Think of tuning a radio to 100 on the AM dial, to listen to music. The radio receives the 1 MHz signal, then demodulates the music. This is what happens in the body. Demodulation can occur at several different places in the body, such as at cell or organelle membranes, interstitial spaces, areas of adjacent but different impedances, and so on. What is important is that the demodulated audio will produce an electrical signal ( voltage ) local to the point of demodulation! If the point of demodulation is a cell membrane, then the electrical charge will occur across the cell membrane. Exposure times at each modulated audio frequency are in minutes. Thus the demodulated voltage is present for at the site of demodulation for minutes at a time! The physiologic consequences of an externally induced electrical charge at the cell membrane can be significant, and is an area of current main stream research.

The authors  device, as did Dr. Rifes', relies upon the phenomena of resonance in order to produce many of it's physiologic effects. Most people think of resonance in terms of a glass breaking when exposed to an audio frequency. A resonant response by an object does not have to be just from stimulation with acoustic frequencies. There are many other types of resonances that can occur. There are resonances to light, radio waves, magnetic waves ( such as used in MRI ), X-Rays and other forms of ionizing radiation. The fundamental physical law that relates to the operation of the device is known as Kirchoff's Principle. Kirchoff's principle states: " The frequency of energy absorbed by a molecule is equal to the frequency of the energy emitted by the molecule ". Kirchoff's principle is the basis of spectrographic analysis. Spectrographic analysis is used to show the resonant response of chemicals, bacteria, viruses, and objects to a frequency range of vibration. For example, how a molecule or object responds to a range of audio frequencies is known as an acoustic spectrograph. A spectrograph can be made using frequencies from those of the audio region through those of frequencies associated with Radio waves, light, and up through ionizing radiation ( X-Rays, etc. ). Once the energy of the wave emitted from the plasma tube is in the body, it can create physiologic effects by matching the spectral absorption/emission frequencies that the molecules and tissues of the body produce.

The significance of Kirchoff's Principle is that the wave emitted from the plasma tube of the device produces spectra that includes those of electrical and magnetic fields, acoustic, RF and light. Simply by changing tubes, gasses, RF carriers, pulse rates and other variables, it is possible to tailor the spectral output of the device to a cell or tissues specific specific spectral resonant point. As a practical application, the system utilizes tubes and RF emission that create extremely wide bandwidths of frequencies. Only the audio modulation frequency is varied. One may thus simultaneously influence multiple resonance frequencies of a cell or organism across many different bands of frequencies!

The pulsed energy radiated by the plasma tube, and resultant demodulated electrical/audio pulse is produced by applying different square wave audio frequencies to the transmitter. The transmtter can be pulsed are rates from those of the audio range ( < 20,000 hz) to those of the ultrasonic range ( 5.5 MHz) .  In fact, if a lower frequency signal is used ( < 2000 hz)  the device, although it lacks a loudspeaker, actually sings,  and audibly emits the audio tone that is being input to it.

Demodulation can occur at several different places in the body, such as at cell or organelle membranes, interstitial spaces, areas of adjacent but different impedances, and so on. What is important is that the demodulated audio will produce an electrical signal ( voltage ) local to the point of demodulation! If the point of demodulation is a cell membrane, then the electrical charge will occur across the cell membrane. Exposure times at each modulated audio frequency are in minutes. Thus the demodulated voltage is present for at the site of demodulation for minutes at a time! The physiologic consequences of an externally induced electrical charge at the cell membrane can be significant, and is an area of current main stream research.

The demodulated  wave from the device can produce an acoustic wave, and thus mechanical resonance effects! The various membranes ( plasma, nuclear, mitochondrial, etc. ) of the cell are analogous to a capacitor and will collect electrical charges. A voltage applied across a cell membrane will change the tension and thus curvature of that membrane. A pulsed voltage at a specific frequency will cause the membrane to oscillate as it contracts and relaxes between each electrical pulse. The outer plasma membrane will collect electrical charges that are no shorter than 1 microsecond in length. The intra cellular membranes of the various organelles will continue to collect electrical charges into the low nanosecond range. The pulses produced by the device are generally in the millisecond range, thus ensuring that electrical charges accumulate both on the exterior and interior of the cell.

The outer membrane of the cell is connected to the cells interior through a tensegrity matrix which is akin to the wires that hold up a suspension bridge. In this case the " wires " support the internal components of the cell. Oscillation of the outer membrane will cause internal oscillation of the cell via the tensegrity matrix . Thus, pulsed electrical signals can produce a mechanical resonance effect. Mechanical resonance is created when a small periodic stimulus of the same natural vibration period of a cell, tissue, or even a molecule, is used to produce a large amplitude vibration of the cell,tissue, or molecule. If the induced resonant vibration is intense enough, the cell, tissue, or molecule will be shattered.

Mechanical stimulation and resonance effects on the interior of cells should have a direct action upon the many different enzymes found within cells. Enzymes rely upon an activation energy in order to initiate catalytic reactions. This activation energy is kinetically based, and may be enhanced through mechanical stimulation of the cell. The rates of enzymatic cellular reactions depend upon the frequency with which an enzyme collides with its substrate. Mechanical stimulation of a cell will produce a mixing of the molecules within a cell and thus increase the number of molecular collisions per unit time. It is also possible that mechanical stimulation may have a " detangling " effect on the folded conformation of proteins.

Plasma Membranes maintain an electrical charge, which is important when discussing infectious disease. Disruption of the normal plasma membrane potentials can lead to upregulation of virulence genes in bacteria, increased susceptibility to infection in the host cells, replication of viruses inside of host cells, activation of dormant viruses, and even reaction/susceptibility to bacterial toxins by host cells. The charging of plasma membranes by an externally applied field may be one of the key aspects of understanding how the Rife/Bare device produces physiologic effects. This is a hypothesis which can be easily evaluated. One could easily test for pre and post exposure membrane potentials, decrease of any increased potential over time, frequency response effects, susceptibility to infection, up and down regulation of virulence genes in pathogenic organisms and so on.

Present development of the authors device allows for the passage of frequencies of up to  5.5 Mhz , a rate that produces pulses of nano second duration.

So similar is the authors patented device to the operation of Dr. Rife's machine, that those who have used it, have given the name of the Rife/Bare or R/B device. The author did not name the device such. This name has grown out the respect and benefit the many tens, if not hundreds of thousands of people worldwide, have had from exposure to the device.

Frequencies for the device come from a variety of sources. Many are empirically derived. That is, from observed responses based on application. A series of spread sheets has been developed that allow one to calculate frequencies using known principles of physics. Please see this link for the free downloads.

Spread Sheet Calculators

Other frequencies come from a patent pending theorem discovered by Charlene Boehm. There have been significant positive responses to the utilization of Ms. Boehm's theorem with the Rife/Bare device. Ms. Boehm has now retired,  and has released a PDF document one can download without charge , containing  her calculated DNA-Gene based frequencies for well over 500 micro organisms. 

DNA-RNA Based Frequency Theorem

 One of the methods via which the device produces effects is called electroendocytosis. Electroendocytosis is the electrical enhancement of endocytosis through the application of very weak electrical fields. This process occurs with very weak field strengths of  only 20 to 70 volts per centimeter!  What this means, is that a local electrical field of only a few tens of millivolts needs to be applied across cell membranes to cause effects. Endocytosis is the process whereby cells fold a piece of their outer plasma membrane forming a vesicle around molecules that are too large to be transported across or through the membrane to thus bring the molecule inside the cell.   Exocytosis is the process whereby the vesicle once it has released it's enclosed molecule returns to and reforms with the plasma membrane. If the process of endocytosis far exceeds the process of exocytosis, the cell will run out of enough plasma membrane to support itself and fail/die.

Electro-osmosis is the electrical field enhanced action of osmosis. One should think of this as related to active transport of charged ions across the cell plasma membranes. Excessive voltage at the cell plasma membrane will tend to create a reorganization of of the charges that are normally present and cause a flow of ions into or out of the cell. Cells normally maintain a 60 to 100 mv voltage potential between the inner and outer plasma membrane. A cancer cell has only a potential gradient of from only 20 to 30 mv! By adding charges to the cell membrane, the abnormal physiology that cancer cells need to exist and function will become disrupted.

Electro-osmosis and electroendocytosis seem to be responsible for the reports of enhanced effects from the use of the device concomitantly with chemotherapeutic regimens. There have been very consistent positive reports of the use of the device with low dosage chemotherapy. This is a subject worthy of extensive clinical investigation.

Traditionally, when the physiologic effects of RF are determined, the scientific community thinks mainly in terms of the field strengths of the electrical and magnetic waves produced by the RF transmitter. RF waves are actually motional magnetic and electrical waves. Each wave ( E & M ) creates a line of force, this line ( an axis ) of force is known as a vector. The combination of the vectors created by EM fields is known as the Poynting vector. Only a few within the scientific community have considered the effects of demodulation of EM waves and their vector resultant at a local ( cellular) level . The Poynting Vector is analogous to what is known as the Lorentz Force. Cells are filled with charged particles, which, as previously mentioned, can be set in motion through mechanical stimulation of the cell membrane. A charged particle, when in motion produces a magnetic field that rotates around the axis of displacement of the particle . The Lorentz force, is the force exerted on a charged particle moving with a certain velocity within an Electro Magnetic field.

The Poynting vector ( Lorentz Force ) may result in an effect known as Fluctuation Driven Transport (FDT). FDT is a process whereby an external oscillating or fluctuating/pulsed electric field, substitutes for the energy derived by ATP hydrolysis in cells. Inside a cell, FDT can result in actuation of the vectoral transport mechanisms of molecular motors and ion pumps.The use of extreme overmodulation by the transmitter of the device produces a very intense demodulated signal. This intense demodulated signal is the basis of the authors patents, and the method which produces physiologic effects.

As the resonance targeted micro organisms or abnormal tissue cells are exposed to the minutes long effects of the demodulated wave, they can break apart and create a debris. This debris can often be noticed as a discolored or highly odorous urine. One may also notice a difference in the color and smell of ones stools as the body detoxes. It is thought that this cellular debris acts as a stimulant to the immune system. The debris may act as an antigen causing the production of antibodies. In effect, a form of immunization against the disease may occur.

Another important method through which the device functions is known as Voltage Dependent Ion Gating ( VDIG ). The ion channels in many types of cells,( especially nerves and muscles ) can be opened through the presence of an external voltage . The author  presently believe this is the primary manner in which the device produces many of the observed physiologic effects on the nervous system. By creating a charge differential on the cell plasma membranes, the device has been able cause pain relief.  VDIG occurs in an electrical field of only 1/10 the intensity necessary to produce electroporation.

The voltage differential created by the device is thought to produce a gradient flow of ions, primarily calcium, potassium, and sodium, across the cell wall. This results in an imbalanced osmotic pressure which may cause the cell to slowly swell and finally shatter . Shatter just like the picture of the paramecium found at the top of this page.

Voltage Dependent Ion Gating is frequency dependent, and closely allied with the cells Zeta potential and pH. pH may be manipulated electrically through the process known as EChT or ElectroChemical Treatment. EChT is used to treat tumors through the insertion of needle electrodes into the tumor. A migration of ions ensues, with disruption of cellular membrane potentials, and changes in local pH. This causes the cell to necrose or undergo apoptosis.

Very fast pulse  Rise and Fall times impacts the resonant cells in a more effective manner. This is because of Faradays Law. An RF wave is a transmitted oscillating magnetic and electrical field. Faradays law states that the induced voltage in an inductor is proportional to the rate of change of the magnetic field. The faster the magnetic field turns on and off ( rise and fall times ) the greater will be the induced voltage.\

Other methods via which the device produces effects can be found in various published scientific papers relating to the effects of sonic resonance's on cells, and the non thermal effects of RF fields on bacteria cultures. Some areas of present interest are magneto- strictive and Widemann effects upon cells. There are numerous research papers and patents involving the use of pulsed electrical, magnetic, and RF fields on micro organisms and tumors which help to explain the devices effects.

The author has created a new term for the use of resonant energies to create physiologic effects. This is an acronym of Dr. Rife's name.

Electrical Frequency Devices  are not new, and are in fact in widespread current usage in Traditional Medical Practice. It is just that few tend to think of these as frequency instruments. The following are just a few of the electrical frequency instruments in present therapeutic medical use.

Muscle/nerve stimulators of multiple types - (some of which are implanted into the body)  relieve pain, reduce spasms and edema, tonify weak muscles, and assist the healing process, run at from 1 to 130 Hz. TENS units are used to block pain run at about 80 to 100 Hz. Interferential Therapy units are a type of muscle stimulator run at 3000 to 4000 Hz. Bio Feedback instruments used to modify behavior and retrain the nervous and muscular systems, run from below 1Hz to about 40 Hz. Bone Growth Stimulators, used to heal broken bones run at frequencies from about 40 to 80 Hz. Deep Brain Stimulators - use implanted electrodes to impart electrical pulses from between 120 and 160 Hz directly to the brain to control involuntary muscular tremors in Parkinson's disease. Heart Pacemakers use an electrical impulse to regulate the hearts rhythm. Vagal nerve stimulators are used to treat a variety of complaints such as rheumatoid arthritis, migraines, and GI issues. 40hz has been found to be useful for the treatment of Alzheimers and new instruments are undergoing clinical trials as of this moment. Ultrasound units that operate in the Mhz regions are used for treatment of muscle and ligaments, and are used in a focused mode to destroy cancer cells. Lasers are used in PDT to treat cancer , others are used for treatment of ligaments and muscles.  Laser in the blue wavelengths are used to treat facial acne.   Plasma surface sterilization is in wide use in  and high electrical fields are used for food sterilization. These are just a few of the ever expanding uses of frequency devices in modern Medical usage.

There is a time for all things - and those that pioneer an advancement which is far beyond it's time often wind up suffering greatly for the promotion of their invention. Dr. Rife discovered that one can treat cancer ,bacteria, and viruses using an emitted field of a specific frequency in the late 1920's.  Today of course, we know that it is possible to use frequencies and fields to treat cancer,  just as Dr. Rife discovered and claimed. Personally, I believe it his development of a method to instantly transfer the majority of the transmitters power without wires to a resonant receiver  that may prove to be his greatest discovery. Yes, Tesla was able to do this, but Dr. Rife used unique equipment and it's ultimate purpose was very different.   But Dr. Rife's name is tainted with decades of smears against him.  Tainted, just like happened to other major pioneers who were ridiculed , slandered and ignored, people like like DaVinci, Keppler, Lister, Mendel, Boltzman and many others.  Dr. Rife and his pioneering work will probably be  continue to be ignored until the world finally wakes up. One could say from all the new frequency instruments coming onto the market  and being used for the treatment of cancer and other diseases, the time of societal awakening  is quickly approaching.   New companies have arisen to treat cancer using frequencies ( Novocure is NYSE listed and has a capitalization in the billions of dollars ) . The old saying " There is no greater power than an idea whose time has come" is  probably why you the reader, are here reviewing this web site..

Frequency devices are being used for the treatment of cancer , but no frequency device can produce a consistent cure. Beware and avoid all those that might make claims to providing a reliable cure to cancer.   Dr. Rife had his device tested at a small Dr.s clinic back in the 1930's and good success from that test was reported. It is known the patients had to sign an informed consent and hold harmless document.     Like all things, there is variation in response.  The Rife-Bare instrument has supporting test results showing efficacy against cancer cells in the lab.  From the reports of users, which are no more than anecdotal and certainly not claims of true effectiveness,  frequency devices presently have provided a viable treatment that has both significantly prolonged survival times and increased the quality of life in some, but most certainly, not all, people.  

The use of frequency devices is in it's infancy - the next 50 years will see it use and applications grow into a major branch of health care.
