FOREWORD
My introduction to the concept of electromagnetic measurements in biological systems came while I was studying for my M.D. at Yale University School of Medicine. To graduate from this particular medical school, one must write a thesis. I chose, in 1959, Dr. Harold Saxton Burr, Professor of Neuro-anatomy, as my advisor for my thesis project. Dr. Burr, at that time, was acknowledged as a lead investigator and proponent of The Electromagnetic Field Theory in Biology. During my studies with Dr. Burr, I was exposed to the concept of taking electronic measurements with a direct current potentiometer on various living organisms, including humans, to measure electrical changes that accompanied changes in those biological systems.
Subsequently, I became familiar with the knowledge that creating an electrical field, such as that reported by Dr. Robert O. Becker and Dr. Andrew Bassett, an orthopedic surgeon at Columbia University School of Medicine, could be of assistance for healing processes in the clinical condition of nonunion of orthopedic fractures. Therefore, I understood that electronics in living systems could not only be measured but, indeed, these systems could be modified by an electrical field.
With the information provided above as a background, I was, perhaps, more receptive than most physicians would be to accept the idea that electronic stimulation could be of benefit in certain clinical conditions. My first hand exposure to the benefit of electronic stimulus as therapy was a very rapid recovery from a previous knee injury after being treated with a Russian electronic device, called a SCENAR, utilized by Dr. Jerald Tennant, in January 2003.
I had met Dr. Tennant in the late 1970s and arranged, with assistance of Dr. John Corboy, for him to present the first intraocular lens course with hands on guidance ever taught in Honolulu, Hawaii. Our friendship had been established then and, therefore, I was interested in the Energetic Medicine workshop he was presenting at the Hawaii Meeting on Maui in 2003. My inquiry about the course at the Faculty dinner led to his treating me for the injury which I had acquired while indulging in my favorite sport of surfing. The dramatic improvement in my knee function led me to buy the Russian device and take Dr. Tennants course taught in Dallas, Texas that year.
I do not presume to understand or profess all the concepts that are presented in this book authored by Dr. Tennant. The SCENAR, and the other electronic devices, subsequently designed by Dr. Tennant, such as the Tennant BioModulator, are classified by the FDA as class 2 accepted devices for the relief of pain and inflammation. Over the past eight years, I have, in my ophthalmic practice personally treated with these devices over 275 patients who had painful ocular syndromes with approximately 85% success. The syndromes have included pain after corneal injury, iritis, migraine, and postoperative discomfort after strabismus and cataract surgery. The pain syndrome, known as post-herpetic neuralgia (pain after shingles), has been especially responsive. In some patients, the pain in the skin had plagued the patient for over 10 years. You can imagine the gratitude of these patients when there is a complete relief, after treatment by an electronic device, for a condition that has not responded to drugs and other modalities of treatment. I thank Dr. Tennant for introducing me to this new paradigm of medical treatment. We may not understand the mechanisms of healing at this point, but, ultimately, results trump theory in any case.

While conventional medicine is a blessing beyond compare for many reasons, it is frankly undeniable that in the scientific quest to understand and control life, conventional ideas and drugs actually pose one of the leading threats to life. One needs only to review statistics to see that the entire world is facing a health care crisis never before known, and it should be obvious that if we continue on the same scientific path to resolve our health woes we will continue to get the same results. If the answer is not to continue the path that is clearly not working, perhaps it is to look back instead, to restore to health care the almightys messages for health, to restore common sense and to focus on effective and safer solutions.
It will undoubtedly be difficult to change the medical paradigm but with organizations like the Pastoral Medical Association, along with caring and dedicated medical professionals like Dr. Jerry Tennant that are willing to step outside that paradigm and research effective and safer options, we will certainly give hope and perhaps life to some of the millions of suffering individuals. In his remarkable book Healing is Voltage, Dr. Tennant shares a wealth of medical knowledge and it is a must read for health care professionals and laypersons alike. Thank you Dr. Tennant for bringing this invaluable resource to us.
