The Repair / Replacement of Tissues Stage
Work by an orthopedic surgeon named Robert
Becker suggests that there is specific electrical
signal that promotes healing of tissues. This
electrical signal is carried between the brain and the
damaged tissue in the perineural tissue which
surrounds the nerve NOT the nerve itself. The
nerve conducts the pain signals but the perineural
tissue conducts the healing electrical signals.
Acupuncture works on the perineural tissue to
make sure these signals are being properly
conducted so healing can occur. However, for this
perineural tissue to work properly, it must have a
surplus of electrons. This is what the earthing mats
are for in my waiting room.(See section on earthing
mats).
