Kirlian photography has a well-established diagnostic purpose in the field of alternative and Eastern medicine. The images produced have a profound effect on the ability to heal. Let's take a look at what Kirlian photography is and how it can be used to heal. What is Kirlian Photography? In 1939 Semyon Kirlian accidentally discovered if you placed an object on a photographic plate, then connected the plate to a source of electricity there would be a radiant image that could show up, created by the electrical field around the edges of the object. Also known as electrography, electro photography and corona discharge photography are all other terms used to describe Kirlian photography on the basis of connections between electricity and images. A common Kirlian experiment consists of tearing a leaf in half, followed by taking a Kirlian image. The result would be an image; the surrounding electrical field of the full leaf. The theory around this experiment is that an energy field is left behind by the leaf allows the current to adhere to residual energy, and thus producing the image. The image is the 'life force' that every living thing possesses and Kirlian photography is the practice of capturing that energy on film. Healing With Kirlian Photography As with many Eastern medicinal traditions such as Reiki or acupuncture, Kirlian photography is also based on the energy fields found throughout the body. Kirlian photography, while allowing practitioners the ability to visualize such fields results in being a very useful diagnosis and evaluation tool. Acupuncturists can, for example, take an image of a person during an initial evaluation and see specifically where their energy is out of balance. It isn't a replacement for an acupuncturist's traditional diagnostic skills but rather a supplement and a way for them to demonstrate their assessment to a patient visually. According to some scientists and practitioners there is a theory regarding Kirlian photography having a role in the detection of cancer along with other diseases devastating in nature. Studies have shown that a plant containing a form of cancer has a much more vivid electrical field or corona and other devastating diseases. For example, plants with cancer show up with a very vivid corona or electrical field than those of healthy plants - all due to the higher metabolic rate of cancerous cells. Kirlian photography may also be able to treat patients under psychiatric care. The images have the ability to exhibit the emotional state of the person being photographed. Based on numerous studies conducted by Dr Thelma Moss of UCLA in the 1970s, she determined that states of relaxation lend themselves to a blue-white corona and states of arousal, tension, anxiety, or emotional excitement, a red blotch consistently appears superimposed on the fingerprint and may dissolve the coronal boundary. Although Kirlian photography has its share of skeptics, it also has strong foundations in the scientific and healing world. This 'accidental' discovery has been used by many professionals the world over to assist in improving the lives of their patients. There is great hope it will become an embraced and traditional Western medicinal practice for diagnosing and treating major diseases such as cancer. Until such an acceptance is achieved, alternative healers are equipped and knowledgeable in using this tool for diagnosing and healing.
