PAP-IMI (PAP Ion Magnetic Inductor)

What is PAP-IMI?

PAP-IMI is a technologically advanced form of Pulse Emitting Magnetic Field Therapy and works similar to an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). The device delivers pulses of electro-magnetic bio-energy which penetrate deep into the tissues.

PAP-IMI was developed by Professor Panagiotis Pappas, a Greek professor of mathematics and physics, a world leader of electromagnetism and a Nobel Prize nominee.

The name PAP-IMI was developed from his surname and IMI stands for Ionic Magnetic Induction. There are more than 4000 scientific essays, hundreds of clinical studies and thousands of testimonials from around the world, which support the positive outcomes of PAP-IMI on the health of humans, plants and animals.

The PAP-IMI device is used by professional sports teams in Europe, USA and Canada for pain and healing. Many European clinics, hospitals and institutions use pulsed magnetic therapy in practice, giving thousands of magnetic field treatments daily.

Over 300,000 people have now been treated with PAP-IMI and no side effects have been recorded since its introduction in 1988.

This safe, relaxing and non-invasive treatment is producing remarkable health outcomes by stimulating the body’s own healing mechanisms.

How does PAP-IMI help my body heal?

The cells of our body are like minute batteries. Cells have many functions, one of them being to supply the body with energy. In order to enhance our function, these batteries need to run at optimal power.

A healthy cell membrane has a negative electrical charge (Trans-membrane Potential or TMP) of – 70 millivolts. This allows the cells to perform a multitude of functions including the regulation of water and oxygen, absorption of nutrients and hormones, energy production and elimination of metabolic waste.

An aged or unhealthy cell will have a lower TMP, sometimes as low as – 15 millivolts. This means that the cell not only has less energy but cannot absorb or excrete materials as well as it should. The unhealthy cell has the potential to produce symptoms of ill health and can progress to a serious disease state. PAP-IMI provides the body with the needed negative ions and helps restore healthy function.

Energy from the PAP-IMI will generally seek out cells with the lowest TMP and subsequently will work on the most unhealthy cells first. On a bigger scale, this means that the PAP-IMI promotes healing of the whole body (see diagram below).

PAP-IMI:

  • Boosts energy
  • Detoxifies
  • Enhances immunity
  • Increases nutrient absorption
  • Decreases inflammation
  • Improves tissue healing
  • Balances hormones
  • Prevents premature ageing

How soon will I see an improvement

Some clients see results immediately. This will vary from one person to the other however. Generally the more chronic the problem, the longer it will take to get results.

How many sessions will I need?

It is recommended that you have 10 sessions to gain the best results. Improvements are often seen with less treatments, however they may be long term, if the body has not had time to completely rejuvenate.

How long is each session?

A session will go for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on your individual needs and health challenges.

Are there any side effects?

You may undergo a mild detoxification and subsequently experience some “flu-like” symptoms such as a mild headache. To avoid this we advise you to drink plenty of water. If you have pain, you may experience some mild discomfort during the treatment.

Therapeutic Goods Administration

PAP-IMI was approved for use in Australia by the TGA in August 2007.

How do I organize a PAP-IMI session?

You will first need to have a consultation. Your general health and treatment needs will be evaluated by a trained health practitioner. Treatment recommendations and other health related issues will be addressed during this consultation.

The PAP-IMI machine weighs 110kgs. The benefits attained from treatment are felt by the whole body including all cells, tissues and organs.



NATUROPATHY

What Is Naturopathy?

Are you sick of being sick? Have you been disappointed with the outcome achieved from mainstream medical treatment? Are you looking for a way to achieve and maintain good health? Do you want to be drug free?

If you answered yes to the above questions, naturopathy may be the solution you are looking for.

Naturopathic philosophy believes in the self healing power of the body. The aim of the naturopath is to facilitate healing through the use of natural products such as herbs and nutrition whilst addressing the underlying causes of ill health. The Naturopathic consultation will vary from one practitioner to another, depending on their background and areas of interest.

Vivienne’s experience in working with both allopathic and natural medicine provides her with a thorough understanding of the client’s past health history and current condition. Assessment utilizes the techniques used by both mainstream and complementary medicine. This subsequently provides the groundwork and information that produces well balanced and accurate findings, on which to base treatment.

The Standard Consultation

The Initial Consultation generally takes 1 to 1 ½ hours. During this time, standard tests such as Blood Pressure, Tongue, Pulse & nail analysis, iridology, Zinc Tally Test, urinalysis, and “hands on” examination, will be performed.  Your symptoms or health/wellness issues are addressed. Specific protocols and nutritional guidelines are provided. Other specific tests (such as Cellular Health Analysis) may also be recommended.

The Initial Consultation addresses acute issues and aims to improve the client’s condition and make them feel better, as quickly as possible.

Follow Up Consultation

This shorter consultation, is needed to address the underlying issues related to the specific health problem. This time is used to determine if products need to be changed, doses adjusted or to commence treatment of secondary issues related to ill health.

Maintenance Consultation

This consultation takes place once problem health issues are dealt with. The aim is to provide the guidelines and nutritional products that will prevent re-occurrence of ill health and maintain wellbeing.

NUTRITION

It’s whats inside that counts…

Hopefully you are one of the enlightened people that has come to realize the importance of a good diet. All foods contain macronutrients (protein, carbohydrate or fat) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) that are essential or possibly harmful to our health. The correct balance of these is vital if you wish to achieve optimal health.

What we eat is indeed crucial to both our short and long term health. Modern Australia is suffering from a type of malnutrition not seen before in history i.e. malnutrition associated with over consumption of calorie rich and nutritionally depleted foods. Your diet and lifestyle has a profound effect upon the type of health problems you do or don’t develop. What you eat may be the trigger that causes issues such as acidity, obesity, diabetes, fatigue, allergies, poor digestion or mental health problems, to develop.

At Body, Mind & Soul Healthcare we aim to provide you with information, based on the most current research, which will help you make informed decisions about the right and wrong foods for you. Its never to late to make positive changes and improve the quality and quantity of your life.

Did you know:

  • 75% of Australian’s are zinc deficient?
  • less than half the western population receives the Recommended Daily Intake of magnesium?

Vivienne is the author of several books which help you adhere to, and enjoy your dietary program. Visit www.recipetohealth.com.au to find out more.



HERBAL MEDICINE

Herbal medicine is considered to be the most ancient form of healing and its effectiveness is now being validated by modern research.

A herb is any part of a plant that can be used for healing purposes. Herbs have had an extraordinary influence over modern medicine and many drugs are still derived from trees, shrubs or herbs (eg foxglove makes digitalis).

Herbs work in a similar fashion to many pharmaceutical preparations. However, the one plant can have many constituents including naturally occurring chemicals, vitamins and minerals. When a whole plant is used (rather than extracted constituents) the different parts interact. It is thought that this synergistic effect produces a greater therapeutic effect than the isolated active constituents, that are generally used in conventional medicine.

Herbal medicine is of most benefit when it is used to treat chronic, ongoing conditions. Herbs can be used every day to maintain health, prophylactically or to treat ill health. Individualized liquid formulas can be produced to suit the needs of the client. Alternatively, Practitioner Only high grade tablet preparations are used. All herbs are sourced from Australia’s leading suppliers who guarantee both the purity and quality of their herbs.
