I've been reading about energy medicine of late. I recently wrote on the sight about the work of Dr. Meg Patterson. She developed an electrical acupuncture devise that was helping well known musicians such as Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, Pete Townshend, along with others over come drug addictions. A little about her work can be seen here:

Dr. Patterson felt her devise worked by raising endorphin levels. That had me thinking of LDN, the somewhat common drug prescribed for those with Crohns and Colitis. LDN at higher doses also helps addicts overcome addictions.
From what I read, I think that there is a good amount of speculation about the potential poor health effects non thermal energies can causes. From my understanding there hasn't been much proof though.
There was one famous incident that caught my attention. Accounts of it can be found Googling. There are conflicting results on what happened, and why it happened though. One write up goes like this. Back in the cold war days, the former USSR reported that non thermal energies caused multiple health issues. American scientists disagreed with the USSR scientists findings. The American scientists then began to ridicule the Russian scientists. Not enjoying the ridicule, the Russian scientist began aiming microwave beams at the American embassy. According to the Russians the levels of microwaves being beamed would cause health issues in those that worked in the building. According to American scientists the microwave levels would not cause health issues.
Well, according to some accounts Americans that worked in the embassy over time began expressing unusual health problems. Some developed cancers, migraine headaches became common, and some developed bleeding issues from their nose and eyes.
Other accounts say this is not true. Instead Americans that worked in the embassy were healthier than the average person. Eventually though the Americans asked the Russians to stop beaming the microwaves into the embassy, even though officially the levels being sent into the building were officially listed as being safe.
It isn't possible to tell what is the truth as far as I can tell.
I thought this a fascinating article on treating cancer in mice and potentially the human magnetic field. When you have an electrical system, as the human body does, a magnetic field is created. I've read in humans the field around the brain is called the magnetoencephalggram or MEG. It is detected I read by using a SQUID magnetometer. From what I've read we, and all other living creatures are surrounded by a magnetic field extending out into space from our bodies.
From Professor Gerald Pollack's sight:
Can you cure cancer with your hands?

A totally mind-blowing experience: I had the pleasure of meeting Bill Bengston last week at the Society for Scientific Exploration. (I was present because the Society was kind enough to award me their Dinsdale Prize.) Among all the many intriguing talks at that meeting was Bill's presentation: he cures cancer in mice, with 100% success rate. He does this by using his hands. Nothing else.
Yes, this sounds awfully suspicious, but if you read his informal account in Edge Science you may be as impressed as I am. Bill has published many papers describing his procedures and results in peer-reviewed journals. He's not a cancer specialist of any sort -- in fact he's a sociologist. But he collaborates with medical and biological researchers all over the country. These mammary adenocarcinomas are 100% fatal; yet, he is able to cure them at the rate of 100%. The mice are really cured: once the tumor disappears, they live out their normal life spans, without ever contracting cancer.
The 800 pound gorilla in the room: if this treatment works so well in mice, then why not humans? Check out Bill's explanation at the end of his Edge Science piece.
