We are not separate from our microbes, but live in a constant relationship with them, and that relationship changes according to what is happening within the body.

This is why we are cautious about reducing health to a simple idea of “good microbes” and “bad microbes”, because the same organism can behave very differently depending on its numbers, its location and the environment around it.

Something such as Candida, for example, may become more dominant when the internal environment changes, but that does not automatically mean Candida itself is the root problem. It may be responding to those conditions, taking advantage of them or, in some situations, playing a part in how the body is managing what is happening around it.

We do not pretend to understand every reason the body does what it does, but we do have enormous respect for the fact that it is constantly adapting, compensating and trying to maintain stability.

That changes the question from simply asking how we can get rid of something to asking why it has become more prominent in the first place.

Looking at the environment around the microbe

A simple comparison is mould in a house, because repeatedly cleaning mould from a wall will not solve the problem if there is still damp, poor ventilation or a leak creating the conditions for it to return.

The body is obviously far more complex than a building, but microorganisms also respond to the environment in which they live, and that environment is influenced by metabolism, digestion, circulation, hormones, nutrients, immune regulation, sleep, stress and the nervous system.

This is where the idea of terrain becomes useful, because it encourages us to look beyond the organism itself and consider the conditions that may have allowed the relationship to change.

It also asks us to remain curious about whether what we are seeing could be part of the body’s response rather than simply something that has gone wrong.

We are not saying that every microbial imbalance is beneficial or should be left alone, but we do think there is value in understanding why something may have shifted before automatically deciding that it needs to be suppressed or removed.

An orchestra is a useful way to think about it

The microbial ecosystem can be thought of a little like an orchestra, where many different instruments are needed and the quality of the music depends on how well they work together.

If one section becomes too loud or falls out of tune, the answer is not necessarily to remove those instruments altogether, because they may still have an important part to play. What matters is helping the orchestra return to a state where each part can do its job without overwhelming the whole.

This is much closer to how we think about microbes within the body, because we are not trying to create a sterile system or treat every bacteria, fungus or virus as something that needs to be destroyed.

We are interested in what has moved out of balance and in supporting the body to restore a healthier relationship with it.

Why BICOM is so interesting to us

This is where BICOM bioresonance becomes particularly interesting, because the system does not simply produce a list of everything that is present in the body.

When we scan, it brings forward the energetic patterns that appear to be out of balance for that individual person at that particular time. If a microbial frequency appears, it is not because every microbe is being treated as a problem, but because that particular pattern is showing as relevant within that person.

One of the things we find particularly special about BICOM is that it can work with information coming from the person themselves.

Rather than only applying a predetermined frequency programme, the system can receive the person’s own frequency information, therapeutically modify that information and feed it back during treatment.

This is what we mean when we say that the BICOM listens to the body.

It is working with your information, rather than assuming that everybody with the same symptom needs the same input, which is why two people who arrive with very similar complaints can show very different patterns and require very different sessions.

That individual feedback is an important part of the way we use BICOM, because the intention is not to force the body into a predetermined state but to work with what it is showing us.

Tuning rather than fighting

If a microbial pattern appears out of balance, the aim is not simply to bombard or destroy that organism.

We can work with the frequency information that has shown as relevant and use bioresonance to support the body in bringing that pattern towards better regulation.

The same principle applies when we work with an organ or system. Rather than thinking of the body as something that needs to be forced into behaving differently, we can use frequency information to support a more coherent pattern and give the body information it can respond to.

This is where the orchestra analogy becomes particularly relevant, because we are not trying to break the orchestra apart because one instrument has become too loud.

We are tuning.

Sometimes that means supporting an organ or regulatory system that appears under stress, while at other times it means working with information relating to a microbial pattern that has moved out of balance.

The intention is the same: to work with the intelligence of the body rather than against it.

For us, this is the difference between balance and battle.

Natural health can sometimes become surprisingly aggressive, with every finding leading to another antimicrobial, another restriction, another detox or another attempt to remove something from the body.

There are times when targeted approaches are useful, but we also believe there is value in asking whether the body needs more intervention or whether it needs better conditions in which to regulate itself.

That may include nourishment, digestion, circulation, sleep, energy production, nervous system support, movement, light and many of the other foundations that influence the internal environment.

Bioresonance fits naturally into that way of thinking because it allows us to listen to the information coming from the individual, identify what appears to have moved out of balance and work with those patterns without assuming that everything we find needs to be fought.

Sometimes the thing that looks like the problem may be part of the body’s response to something deeper, which is why we would rather listen before we interfere.

Interested in seeing what your body is showing?

Our BICOM scans look for the energetic patterns that appear most out of balance for you, giving us a starting point for understanding where the system may be under stress.

From there, bioresonance sessions allow us to work with those individual patterns over time, using frequency information to support regulation and help bring the system back towards better balance.
