CONTROVERSY Radionics is an alternative medicine that claims disease can be diagnosed and treated with a kind of energy similar to radio waves The concept behind radionics originated in the early 1900s with Albert Abrams 1864 1924 who became a millionaire by leasing radionic machines which he designed himself Radionics contradicts some principles of physics and biology and as such is widely considered pseudoscientific The United States Food and Drug Administration does not recognize any legitimate medical uses for radionic devices According to radionics practitioners a healthy person will have certain energy frequencies moving through their body that define health while an unhealthy person will exhibit other different energy frequencies that define disorders Radionic devices purport to diagnose and heal by applying appropriate frequencies to balance the discordant frequencies of sickness Radionics uses frequency not in its standard meaning but to describe an imputed energy type which does not correspond to any property of energy in the scientific sense The claims for radionic devices contradict the accepted principles of biology and physics No scientifically verifiable mechanisms of function for these devices has been posited and they are often described as magical in operation No plausible biophysical basis for the putative energy fields has been proposed and neither the fields themselves nor their purported therapeutic effects have been convincingly demonstrated Internally a radionic device is very simple and may not even form a functional electrical circuit The wiring in the analysis device is simply used as a mystical conduit A radionic device does not use or need electric power though a power cord may be provided ostensibly to determine a base rate on which the device operates to attempt to heal a subject Typically little attempt is made to define or describe what if anything is flowing along the wires and being measured Energy in the physical sense i e energy that can be sensed and measured is viewed as subordinate to intent and creative action
