20th-Century Scientific Breakthroughs in Bioelectric Fields
In the early 20th century, a resurgence of interest in the bioelectric field emerged, driven by a new wave of scientific inquiry. Dr. Elara Magnus meticulously examines this period, highlighting the pioneering contributions of Dr. Harold Saxton Burr, Robert O. Becker, and Wilhelm Reich. Their groundbreaking work not only expanded the understanding of bioelectric phenomena but also laid the groundwork for modern bioelectric medicine and technologies.
Dr. Harold Saxton Burr: Mapping Electric Fields of Living Organisms
Dr. Harold Saxton Burr, a professor of anatomy at Yale University, was one of the first scientists to propose that all living organisms possess measurable electric fields. Burr introduced the concept of "L-fields" (life fields), which he believed were essential in regulating growth, development, and health.
Burr's Experiments:
Mapping L-Fields: Burr used sensitive voltmeters to measure the electric potentials around pl…
