My limited knowledge of Chi machines is as follows and was obtained from my mother who owns one. She says Chi machines are for increasing circulation and releasing toxins from storage within your body. I guess this could be helpful in cancer on some levels. She uses her machine every day.

I have used it a few times, but I don't like the affect I get. I think this is because I was recently taking a anti seizure medication that I had a very bad reaction to and although I am no longer sick from the medication I believe some of it is/was still left in my system when I used the machine. Using the machine made me feel just like I did when I had a reaction to the medication. That is my laypersons opinion. Also I should mention that Chi machines in general are not recommend for people with epilepsy, I do not have grand mal seizures so I tried it for only a short time while some one was with me.

As far as the benefits of circulation and detoxification go, I think it is agreed on this list that those things are important, but there are other ways to do that throught diet, massage, exercise, sauna etc.

I have a chi machine and I know of at least three persons who

are/were fighting cancer that have made use of them. I cannot say

that the machine has cured any of them in and of itself but they all

observe the strong benefits of its regular use. within a healthy

regime. My opinion is that the degree to which one benefits all

depends on the stage at which its use is introduced.

In general, I think it is important to understand the role oxygen

plays in maintaining health. The chi machine's main benefit is that

it delivers a superlative level of oxygen to the cellular level via

the pathway formed directly to the various organs and muscles through

the nervous system as it branches off the spinal column. Unlike

other forms of oxygen therapy, which is at the very least

questionable, it does so in a natural fashion. According to

Professor Inoue of Japan, the machine's inventor some 10 years ago,

it delivers the equivalent of a 90 minute brisk walk in only 15

minutes (during which you simply lie there and relax).

Oxygen is the #1 element is our bodies when it comes to superlative

health regulation. We can go for up to 4 weeks without food, 4 days

without water, but only four minutes without Oxygen. Suffice to say,

it is ranks as number one in providing the fuel to return the body to

its natural and healthy state.

The second benefit it the chi machine brings is relaxation. It has

been said that the master cause of all dis-ease is tension (see how

it is hidden in the wordx itself!). The opposite of tension is

relaxation (dis-ease - ease). Most people I share the machine with

have never experienced the level of relaxation that the enjoy when

the massage is over.

Third, to quote from the given site " CELLULAR ACTIVATION: Massage

stimulation to the sympathetic nervous system opens up the

bronchioles to provide maximum oxygen access to the lungs,

simultaneously the blood flow to and from the lungs is increased,

enhancing oxygen exchange from the lungs to the blood and therefore

to the body cells, to excite cellular metabolism. "

Cellular activation would surely include the cells famous for killing

off the rougue cancer cells.

Our good friends at WebMD have posted a " discovery " that seems to

agree with what i was saying about the easychi.com Chi Machine.

Wherever they write " stress " I would substitute in tension. It more

clearly indicates what happens when you are able to RELAX.

Neurotic People May Have Weaker Immune

Systems

Crabby, Nervous Folks Don't React to Vaccines

as Strongly

By Mann

WebMD Medical News

Reviewed by Dr. Craig H. Kliger

Jan. 22, 2001 -- Adding to the growing evidence

linking body and mind, new research suggests that

moody, nervous, and tense people may have

weaker immune responses than their calmer, cooler

counterparts. In light of this finding,stress

reduction

techniques, including meditation, may be just

what

the doctor ordered.

Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh

School of Medicine came to their conclusion by

studying the immune reaction of a group of young

adults following their vaccination for hepatitis

B -- a

viral infection affecting more than 200,00

people in the U.S. each year.

The same people were also administered a

personality test. Researchers found that those

people whose test scores marked them as anxious,

nervous, tense, and irritable -- characteristics

psychologists refer to as " trait negative " or

neurotic -- tended to produce fewer protective

antibodies and T cells in response to the

hepatitis vaccines.

" The study suggests that people high in [trait

negative affect] are more prone to illness, " says

lead researcher L. Marsland, PhD, RN, of the

behavioral medicine program at the university's

Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic. " [until

recently], one of the main thoughts has been that

such people just report more symptoms. But what

this study suggests is they actually may be more

susceptible to illness and infection. "

Further study is needed to confirm these

findings,she says.

Marsland and colleagues discovered the

correlation after administering a test in which

participants were asked to choose adjectives that

best described

their personalities and then followed that up

with a

measurement of their immune response after two

doses of the three-part vaccine. They reported

their

findings in the January issue of the journal

Health

Psychology.

In a second experiment, the researchers

videotaped

participants giving a speech -- assumed to be a

stressful activity -- and then measured their

T-cell

function in blood samples taken right before and

30

minutes after the speech. T-cells are one

indicator

of an immune system response.

And while all study participants were found to

have

lower immune function as a result of giving the

speech -- that is, in response to a stressful

event --

those who had the greatest reduction in immune

function also tended to have weaker responses to

the hepatitis B vaccine, she says.

" There is mounting evidence that stress reduction

can enhance immune system functioning, " says

McCain, RN, an associate professor of

nursing at the Virginia Commonwealth University

in

Richmond. Richmond has spent the past 10 years

researching the connection between stress and the

immune system -- particularly in people with HIV,

whose compromised immune systems making

them more susceptible to all sorts of infections

and

diseases.

While researchers are not precisely sure how

stress affects the immune system, people who are

more psychologically or physically stressed often

have elevated levels of the stress hormone

cortisol,

says McCain, who was not involved in the Marsland

study but provided WebMD with an independent

assessment of the issues it raises.

" Cortisol is primary and predominantly an immune

system suppressant, " says McCain, who just this

week began what will be a 5-year study of whether

relaxation methods such as tai chi, meditation,

and/or spiritual growth can enhance the

psychological well-being and immune statuses of

people living with HIV.

In the new study, which is funded by the National

Institutes of Health, McCain and her

co-investigators will run a battery of tests

measuring

components of the immune system to determine

how it responds to a given stress-reducing

technique and to learn if any one approach is

more

effective than the others.
