Royal Raymond Rife was one the most brilliant, versatile, scientific minds in human history. His Frequency Instruments were steadily improved from the early version of 1920 to the clinical versions of 1934-38 and then, in the 1950s, improved again to the point where Rife could assert, "they are infallible and simple to operate."

The May 6, 1928 Evening Tribune of San Diego described what the Frequency Instrument did:

"Just what this Ray does to the organisms to devitalize them is not yet known. Because each organism requires a different wave length, it may be that whatever befalls these tiny slayers of man is something similar to the phenomenon occurring when the musical tuning fork is set in vibration by sound waves emanating from another fork struck nearby..."

Who was Royal Raymond Rife?

Royal Raymond Rife, born in 1888, was a gifted scientist and researcher whose revolutionary research into the invisible realm of viruses and bacteria was actively suppressed and largely forgotten until recently. Rife studied bacteriology at John Hopkins University and the University of Heidelberg and in his own research laboratory. He studied the field of optics for 6 years with Hans Luckel who was Carl Zeiss's optical scientist and researcher. He made all the photomicrographs for the Atlas of Parasites which was done at the University of Heidelberg. He also studied eye surgery for two years.

Rife's inquisitive mind led him to master so many different scientific and technical disciplines that whenever he needed to perform a new task, he simply invented the technology and built the equipment himself. Some if his technological inventions are still used today in the fields of optics, electronics, radiochemistry, biochemistry, ballistics, and aviation. During the 66 years that Rife spent designing and building medical instruments, he worked for Zeiss Optics, the U.S. Government, and several private benefactors {including millionaire Henry Timkin, of Timkin roller bearing fame} and with the top scientists and doctors of his day, including: E.C. Rosenow, Sr. {longtime Chief of Bacteriology, Mayo Clinic}; Arthur Kendall {Director, Northwestern Medical School}; Dr. George Dock {internationally-renowned}; Alvin Foord {famous pathologist}; Rufus Klein-Schmidt {President of USC}; Dr. Milbank Johnson {Director of the Southern California AMA}; Whalen Morrison {Chief Surgeon, Santa Fe Railway}; George Fischer {Childrens Hospital, N.Y.}; Edward Kopps {Metabolic Clinic, La Jolla}; Karl Meyer {Hooper Foundation, S.F.}; M. Zite {Chicago University}; and many others. He received 14 major awards and honors, including an honorary Doctorate by the University of Heidelberg for his work and a Research Fellowship in Bio-Chemistry from the nationally-known Andean Anthropological Expedition, Institute for Scientific Research.

On November 20, 1931, forty-four of the nation's most respected medical authorities honored Royal Rife with a banquet billed as "The End To All Diseases" at the Pasadena estate of Dr Milbank Johnson.

Rife had one of the best privately equipped laboratories in the world at the time, complete with a million volt X-Ray, frequency instruments, electronic test equipment, precision lathes, mills, drill presses, shaper and all equipment necessary to make instruments, microscopes, glass blowing equipment, a surgical room for animals, a pathology room complete with microscopes of all types, and virus microscopes which he had designed and built for his research. He also had a stop motion microscope set up for the life study of microorganisms from the cradle to the grave. None of this equipment was available on the open market, so he had to design and build these instruments to accomplish what he wanted to attain with his research.

Rife had various laboratories around the country, including the Rife Research Laboratory, The Point Loma Lab, The Rife Virus Microscope Institute, a microscope and dark room facility at San Diego, and three human research clinics, the first of which was set up under a special medical research committee at the University of Southern California, with a group of well respected doctors to aid in the clinical work and observe.

"Under the universal microscope, disease organisms, such as those of tuberculosis, cancer, sarcoma, streptococcus, typhoid, staphylococcus, leprosy, hoof and mouth disease, and others, may be observed to succumb when exposed to certain lethal frequencies, coordinated with the particular frequencies peculiar to each individual organism, and directed upon them by rays covering a wide range of waves."

Sound healing is the therapeutic application of sound frequencies to the body/mind of a person with the intention of bringing them into a state of harmony and health.

Dr. Royal Raymond Rifes life work proved that the vibrational frequency of a disease could be cancelled out and deleted with the equivalent balancing frequency.

Rife Frequencies are non-invasive in the sense that the skin is not broken and there is no damage to normal, healthy tissues and cells etc. The frequencies scanned through are purposely only in the range that are harmful to bacteria, viruses, parasites, etc.

Rife Frequencies can be used synergistically with other treatment modalities without the danger of harmful interactions as with drug therapy.

Rife Frequencies can be focused on a specific physical location where other modalities could not penetrate without surgery, or without losing effectiveness, e.g., periodontal and dental problems like the inside of the teeth and gums, the lungs, the arteries and arterioles, bones, joints, ligaments, etc.

Rife Frequencies are non-toxic, as opposed to most drugs, and is non-damaging to normal tissue in contrast to surgery. It has no ionizing radiation and so cannot cause damage to the immune system or DNA breakage, etc.

Rifes techniques are currently being used by doctors in Germany and all over the world in conjunction with other effective therapies that have been declared illegal in the USA. Actually, there are 10 states and many brave practitioners in the US, who can use experimental modalities.  However, Rife is unknown or very misunderstood by most MDs and even Chiropractors. This may be due to the prejudice against electro-medicine that has been fostered and taught since the early 1930's with the advent of the FDA as an enforcer of drug-based, allopathic medicine. There was a time when Chiropractors had to fight for their very existence to become part of the mainstream etc.

The French ear, nose and throat specialist Dr Alfred Tomatis has devoted the last 50 years to understanding the ear and its function. He believes that the ear is the most important of all our sense organs. The ear controls the bodys sense of balance, rhythm and movement and is the conductor of the entire nervous system.

Through the medulla, the auditory nerve connects with all the muscles of the body. Hence, muscle tone, equilibrium, flexibility and vision are affected by sound. Through the vagus nerve, the inner ear connects with the larynx, heart, lungs, stomach, liver, bladder, kidneys, small intestine and large intestine.

Tomatis believes that high frequency sounds (3,000Hz and above) activate the brain and affect cognitive functions such as thinking, spatial perception and memory. Listening to these sounds increases our attentiveness and concentration.

When our body receives a pure tone our muscles will relax and tension will be released.

"The more one studies these things, the more one realizes that sound is the creative principle. It must be regarded as primordial. No single phenomenal category can be claimed as the aboriginal principle. We cannot say, in the beginning was number, or in the beginning was symmetry, etc. These are categorical properties which are implicit in what brings forth and what is brought forth. By using them in description we approach the heart of the matter. They are not themselves the creative power. This power is inherent in tone, in sound."

Dr. Hans Jenny, from the book "Cymatics, Volume 2"

"I am convinced that the use of healing with sound will soon become standard practice for many physicians and health care professionals."
