is beginning to shed light on the role of natural "energy forces" within the human body that were
previously thought to be inexplicable. "Energy medicine is medicine based on the appreciation
that living systems have energy fields inside of them and around them and that these fields play
important roles in physiology, regulatory biology [and] regulating processes that are going on
inside the organism," Dr. Oschman says.
Dr. Oz talks with Dr. Oschman about the fundamentals of energy medicine and how scientists are
measuring the ways in which various forms of energy interact with living systems. They also
discuss alternative healing techniques, such as acupuncture and Reiki, which Dr. Oschman says
are also measurably demonstrating how energy can be channeled to improve the body's health
and well-being.
