The effectiveness of essential oils cannot be fully understood without some discussion of frequency. Essential oils have the highest frequency of any natural substance known to man. Frequency is a measurable rate of electrical energy that is constant between any two points.  Every living thing has an electrical frequency.  Robert O. Becker, M.D., documents the electrical frequency of the human body in his book, The Body Electric.  A "frequency generator" was developed in the early 1020's by Royal Raymond Rife, M. D.  He found that by using certain frequencies, he could destroy a cancer cell or virus.  He found that these frequencies could prevent the development of disease, and others would destroy disease.

Bjorn Nordenstrom, a radiologist from Stockholm, Sweden, wrote the book "Biologically Closed Circuits".  He discovered in the 1980's that by putting an electrode inside a tumor and running a milliamp D.C. (Direct Current) through the electrode, he could dissolve the cancer tumor and stop its growth.  He found electropositive and electronegative energy fields in the human body.

Bruce Tainio of Tainio Technology in Cheney, Washington, developed new equipment to measure the bio-frequency of humans and foods.  He used this bio-frequency monitor to determine the relationship between frequency and disease.  Measuring in megahertz, it was found that processed / canned food had a zero MHz frequency; fresh produce measure up to 15 MHz; dry herbs from 12-22 MHz; and fresh herbs from 2-27 MHz.  Essential oils started at 52 MHz and went as high as 320 MHz, which is the frequency of rose oil.  A healthy body typically has a frequency ranging from 62-78 MHz, while disease begins at 58 MHz.  Clinical research shows essential oils, having the highest frequency of any natural substance known to man, can create an environment in which microbes, disease, bacteria, virus, fungus, etc., cannot live.  Truly, the chemistry and frequency of essential oils have the ability to help man maintain an optimal health frequency.

It is wonderful to discover that essential oil frequencies are several times greater than frequencies of herbs and foods. For years, research has been conducted on the use of electrical energy to reverse disease.  Scientists in the field of natural healing have believed there has to be a more natural way to increase the body's electrical frequency.  This led to the research and subsequent discovery of electrical frequencies in essential oils.  Patients felt better emotionally when oils were diffused in their rooms.  It seemed that, within seconds, these patients were more calm and less anxious with little exposure and inhalation.  Certain oils acted within 1-3 minutes; others acted within seconds.  It is fascinating to think that an oil applied to the bottom of the feet could travel to the head and take effect within one minute.  The more results that have been seen, the more research has been initiated. 

Unhealthy Substances Caused Frequency Changes.  In one test, the frequency of two individuals - the first a 26 year old male and the second a 24 year old male - was measured at 66 MHz each.  The first individual held a cup of coffee (without drinking any), and his frequency dropped to 58 MHz in 3 seconds.  However, no essential oils were used during the recovery time, and it took 3 days for his frequency to return to its initial 66 MHz. 

Other surprising aspect of this study was found by measuring of the influence which thoughts have on the body's electrical frequency.  Negative thoughts lowered the measured frequency by 12 MHz and positive thoughts raised the measured frequency by 10 MHz.  It was also found that prayer and meditation increased the measured frequency levels by 15 MHz.
