Frequently Asked Questions
Below you will find a list of frequently asked questions and answers. If you do not find an answer to your questions, please contact us.
Who can use BIE?
The BIE device can be used on anyone aged 6 months and up. It cannot be used on pregnant individuals or those with a pacemaker.
Is BIE a Placebo?
The placebo effect is when someone recovers from an ailment after receiving a treatment thinking it was the beneficial therapy, but in fact was an inactive drug or treatment. BIE does not psychologically affect both testing and the BIE reintroduction of stressors. This is because BIE has the same efficacy/success rates (if not, better) on infants and animals as it does with adult humans. Infants and animals do not have the cognitive ability to "think" their way into feeling better. The reason it can sometimes be more successful for infants and animals is because they do not have the same exposure to stress as adults do, and bringing the body back into balance works best when the nervous system is calm.
Based on these observations, it is deduced that BIE does NOT result in a placebo effect. If you would like to read more about the studies conducted by BIE practitioners and BIE founders, click here to discover the history and research of BIE.

Are there any side effects to BIE?
While the body is normalizing to a particular substance after as BIE session, symptoms of detoxification may occur, although this is rare.
These symptoms typically include: headaches, body aches, fatigue, brain fog, and nausea.
These symptoms often do not last long and are sometimes part of the recovery process.
Can BIE heal my allergy symptoms?
BIE does not serve to diagnose, treat or cure any diseases or conditions. Nor does it replace the advice from a regulated healthcare professional. BIE helps the body to recognize stressors that are leading to your symptoms and restore balance and healing to activate it's own healing energies.
BIE has been around for over 30 years, and has seen great success with a number of symptoms.
How soon will I see results?
Helping the body return to homeostasis is not always a quick fix, as the body has accustomed itself to this way of living for a long period of time. The results also depend on the person and their lifestyle outside of sessions. With BIE some people see a difference after just 1 session, for others it could take 2-8 sessions.
What hinders efficacy of BIE?
-
Drink plenty of water: about 2 L of water each day for 48 hours after a session. Water is essential for human health. Our bodies are made up of 80% water and it is needed for almost every function in the body. Not only is water beneficial for our health but it is also a great conductor of electricity. BIE uses small electrical impulses to reintroduce the frequency of the substance back into the body, thus we need water to be present in order to get the best results with BIE!
-
Avoid EMF's: Electro magnetic fields such as mobile phones, microwaves, Wifi, computers, Bluetooth etc., can enter cells through the cell membrane and build up internally, thereby, altering the cell’s balance. The body can sometimes confuse the EMF frequency with the one we just reintroduced back into the body. We suggest you try your best to stay away from EMF's post session as much as possible for 48 hrs. For example, talk hands free or with wired headphones when on the phone, keep your cell phone off/ away from your body when possible, don't stand near a microwave when its on, etc.
-
Reduce Stress: Your body tends to build up intolerances when it is under stress. In order to rid intolerances and bring the body back to balance, we must practice ways to actively reduce stress daily. Three ways you can start reducing stress:
-
Go for daily 10 minute walks, in nature
-
Take 5 deep breaths before eating food
-
Practice gratitude and mindfulness
-
-
Avoid the items worked with: Try your best to avoid the items we worked on in session, as we don't want to overwhelm your body.
The efficacy of BIE depends on each individual person. Each person is biochemically unique, BIE works hard to bring your body back to balance no matter how long it has been off balance for. See above "things you can do post BIE session" to help with efficacy of each session.
