These Frequently Asked Questions and Answers below are a partial compilation of many favorites found elsewhere on the net and in book and those brought us in emails over the years by readers and investigators. They are generic in nature and generally not affiliated with any one type or brand of device and may not necessarily be completely accurate for your device. We typically do not encourage the use of, or endorse any one type of device over the other ... but we DO EMPHATICALLICALY ENCOURAGE user participation, experimentation and sharing of info. There appear to be many different devices out there .... and we hope our devices and information will help provide the stimulus to initiate you into the remarkable world of Rife technology. We will continue to try to provide links to as many of the other viable devices as possible.

1. Do all Rife machines work?

Actually, not all machines intended as Rife devices, actually employ any of Rife's ideas or requirements. Some of these do seem to work. Why they work, is not completely known, and there are many other variables that influence what might be defined as effective. Until Royal Raymond Rife came along in the 1930's, it was not known why these machines worked when they did, or why they did not give the desired result when they failed.

Although Rife did not invent electro-medicine, and in fact, was NOT the inventor of the first instrument to use frequency or magnetism for therapy, he is justly credited with discovering the principals upon which reliable modern Rife machines are based. He was able, (via his universal microscope), to validate the targeted destructive and devitalizing nature of the technology.

Note: It has been repeatedly reported, an instrument that is ideal for a given condition, will sometimes effect a complete cure in only a single session of only a few minutes in duration. This has been observed empirically, but not necessarily proven under laboratory conditions.

Before you spend any money on a machine or parts, it is probably best to educate yourself .to the various types of equipment and determine what will probably best suit your needs, environment and competency level. If possible, get with someone that has a unit of the type you are considering. Most are more than happy to share their accumulated knowledge and experience. If possible, try it out first. If there is a change in your condition, your doctor is the best person to confirm and document it for you in a conventional and legally accepted manner.

There are conditions which are known to be worsened by frequency therapy.
So be prepared for this, know what your condition really is. Research what possible harmful side effects could occur. Personal experimentation is a risky business, and if it goes wrong, there is no one to blame but yourself.

2. Is a Rife machine nothing more than a function generator?

No, a function generator is a piece of common electronic test equipment. A Rife Machine is something else. It is also often referred to as a Frequency Instrument. Unfortunately there are some selling devices that are little more than a simple function generator as a Rife device.

Rife had constructed some of his experimental devices using kits which were intended as function generators. There are some important differences there. The main one has to do with the fundamental physical principal upon which the frequency instrument operates. Even with all the parts and a complete (and correct) design, it is often impossible to achieve the desired effect without an understanding of these phenomena together, and it requires considerable experience to finally arrive at the optimum balance of forces.

Unfortunately, we do not posses all of the valuable information in this field. There are many highly successful applications of this and similar technologies (some classified) currently used in industry. We have a learned a lot since Rife’s time, and devices are getting better and more readily available.

Many of the components available today are far superior to anything that was available in Rife's day, as well as being much more reliable and stable.

3. How dangerous is Frequency Therapy?

Like anything, if used improperly and with reckless disregard, … it can kill you!

Your car and many kitchen appliances can be far more lethal, however, most people with any reasonable amount of caution and common sense seem to get by pretty well. Used properly and carefully, the devices are probably no more dangerous and than most home appliances.

Probably the most prevalent danger is not the device itself but the user who tries to avoid educating themselves into the full implications of their actions. Those who avoid medical treatment or surgery where medical treatment or surgery is appropriate or effective, causing the problem to go untreated, is probably the biggest danger. Those who simply want to BUY a “simple solution” to their problem are probably NOT of the mindset that should be utilizing these technologies.

4. Are Rife machines illegal?

Without technically offering "legal advice", it is our opinion that owning and using Rife devices themselves is not illegal. There may exist local ordinances that might infringe upon your rights to privacy in this area. We believe you may legally buy and use your device in most ordinary private situations, and you may experiment on yourself at your own risk. It would be better and safer if you did not experiment on anyone or anything else.

There are ways in which the use of these devices IS considered illegal in many areas. For instance, you may not advertise or charge for therapy. You may not make medical claims. You may not use the device in any way that is illegal or designed to perpetrate a fraud of any kind.

5. Is the Rife machine patented?

Some of Rife's original designs were patent-able. Today the technology is like the flashlight, if you want one that you can control on the open market with any useful amount of patent rights, you are going to have to do some very serious and innovative development to come up with something better, or do the same thing cheaper.
Johnson &Johnson's bone growth stimulator is clearly among the Rife discoveries, and it has several good patent claims and was approved by the FDA. That product was allegedly sold to another company, who still makes and markets it worldwide.

TENS devices ( Transcutaneous Electrical Neural Stimulation), to the latest, Ionic Toothbrush, use principals developed either directly from, or in parallel to, Rife's original work. Rife probably never even conceived of some of these other uses obviously derived from his and his predecessors initial work.

6. How can I buy a Rife Machine?

Currently, at least in the United States, other than the few available licensed component manufacturers, you have to make it yourself, or have it made. Almost every basic component used has other more common uses as well. A completed plasma device has legitimate experimental technical uses, experimentation, and education having nothing to do with “Rife technology” but is far beyond the scope of this document.

Strictly speaking, many products mentioned along with Rife devices, only because they are based im-part on the underlying technologies.

7. How do you avoid the FDA?

We don't, and neither should you. If what you do is not a danger to the health of others, and you are not engaging in any activity that is the exclusive domain of doctors or pharmacists, you as a private experimenter, researcher, or engineer should have nothing to fear of the FDA.

While some devices have already been approved internationally, or for experimentation for veterinary and reportedly, even for some specific applications, research continues worldwide. People’s open communication, sharing of technology, science, and responsibly documented personal results will assist others in obtaining and understanding like results.

Open and extremely vocal (and legal) public pressures on FDA and similar agencies will hopefully help “refocus” those agencies mandates to serving the interests of the people rather than the pharmaceutical companies and big business. Once the FDA and similar agencies begin to server the needs of people of their respective countries rather than the desires of the multinational pharmaceutical conglomerates and comply with federally mandated court orders as well as their charters, the people may actually be able to see and use devices in standardized and accepted practice as part of their conventional medical care.

8. How does “it” work?

Of the devices discussed in this series of documents, simply stated, frequency instruments have a couple of basic modes of operation. The most common are:

Polarity Modalities

The application of energy to induce changes in the polarity of the electrical or magnetic charge of certain tissues of the body, or of the body in general, was discovered by Rife to have the effect of preventing most viruses and bacteria from reproducing. (Also referd to as “devitalization”. This technique typically does not effect as rapid results as specific frequency therapy, but is a valuable alternative, and means of maintenance, or as follow up to frequency therapy sessions. Devices of this type often are far less expensive to build and operate and size-wise are typically portable.
Polarity applications are traditionally employed in brain wave manipulation experiments (biofeedback), and have been reported upon favorably in most cases of nerve inflammation.

The use of polarity techniques is actually quite different from direct/specific frequency applications.
These type devices are often the choice and preferred method for beginners, pregnant mothers, children, and others where extra caution is mandated. This modality is now often used with acupuncture to enhance its overall effect.

Frequency Modalities

Simply put, it is believed, a virus, microbe, parasite or any other cell is susceptible to a specific frequency that causes it's immediate demise, almost immediately upon contact. This is known as the Mortal Oscillatory Rate, or the M.O.R. of that particular foreign microbe or parasite. The physics of what is occurring may not be as simplistic as many would have you believe, but the concept and theory is generally accepted. MOR effects are far easier to achieve using these frequency modality methods, but require more experience and typically more complex equipment to accomplish than do polarity techniques.

Besides actual and specifically targeted microbial destruction, frequency application may also be used in other ways as well. Some examples include, cancer, diabetes, kidney failure, rheumatoid arthritis, stones, cataract, cuts and sores, and a host of others. In these cases, applied frequencies do not necessarily attempt to destroy parasites, but instead, attempt to stimulate tissues and encourage healing, by direct or localized application, and by strengthening the immune system. Frequency application protocols require more in-depth knowledge of a given disorder, and far more technical skill than is required for simple polarity applications.

Although the most effective ways to apply frequency to systemic problems is typically with a radiant type instrument, although contact type devices can be effective if electrode placement is well thought out. Contact type devices are particularly useful for targeting specific or infected tissues while limiting exposure and effects to surrounding areas of the body.

9. Why doesn't the medical establishment give up drug sales for frequency devices?

Simply stated …. there's nothing in it for them. Worse than that, it has the potential of threatening significant and substantial incomes and profits if its use becomes wide spread.

If these technologies are ever accepted as an alternative to some prescription drugs or conventional medical treatment, they will not very likely be done so with the enthused endorsement of the very companies they threaten, but rather on documented merits and first hand accounts of personal experiencers. The underlying physics will need to be studied over a long period of time and many would agree that has already been done to a certain degree over the last century.

Recently, mainstream medicine has indeed begun to experiment in this area. Because of the current controls and protections and the perceived stranglehold big business appears to have on government agencies supposedly mandated to “serve” the people”, we cannot be anything but watchful that the continued environment does not lead to something to prevent the American public from having open access to a techniques, self education, or experimentation that for the most part, does not require medical supervision

Experimenters have used and developed these techniques successfully, in their homes, without undue risk or personal injury for well over half a century. If we allow the drug companies to take complete control of it, we will be facing insurmountable new problems.

Big business and the conventional medical/pharmacutical community will embrace these technologies only when it is in THEIR financial best interest.

10. What is the frequency for <insert your affliction here>?

The MORs of many specific microbial-based afflictions as well as stimulating support frequencies are known. The CAFL (Consolidated Annotated Frequency List) is a great “starting place”. It however is ONLY that, … a starting place! Typically however, there are groups of recommended frequencies which others in the past have used with success on some aspect of that particular affliction. There are many considerations and even manipulations of the target frequency itself important to good success. An entire fully illustrated paper/chapter has been included as this is an extremely important consideration to effective Rife experimentation and research.

Other important considerations such as the effect and relationships electro-frequency application may have on prescribed drugs and even herbal remedies should be understood and considered before you begin.
