DIAGNOSTIC CAPABILITIES AND
OPERATION MODES OF DIADENS-T
AND DIADENS-DT DEVICES
3. PURPOSE AND APPLICATION OF FOLL PROGRAM
The FOLL program is relatively new; it appears in DiaDENS-DT to optimize the
protocol and to assess the
dynamics of change achieved during the treatment process. This is a variant of acupuncture assessment of energy meridians
and the state of bodily organs and systems.
The method is also intended to test and select medications, homeopathic remedies and nutrient supplements.
!
NOTE! This program is intended to assess the functional state of internal
organs and systems and not to diagnose the disease.
General Information on Foll Method
The method was suggested by the German researcher R. Foll in the mid-20th century; it is based on measurement of the current force at
acupuncture points expressed in standard Foll units (from 0 to 100 units). In his diagnostics Foll used several hundreds of acupuncture points
(called measuring points, ("MPs")), located on the 12 classical Chinese meridians and on 8 new meridians as set out by Foll (the lymphatic
system, joint degeneration, connective tissue degeneration, the central nervous system, allergy, the skin, fatty degeneration, parenchyma
degeneration and epithelium degeneration).
To obtain valid results using the Foll method, it is necessary to observea number of obligatory requirements, includingtheoptimum humidity
of the skin, and the removal of any metallic attire. There are some requirements for the premises where the procedure is held. There should be
no x-ray installations or sources of electromagnetic radiation nearby, or any sources of static electricity. To eliminate diagnostic errors, Foll
recommended that three measurements of the same area be carried out, as well as 3 or 4 points of the same meridian.
It should be noted that Foll attached great importance to the operator being familiar with the pattern of the meridians. In addition, he advised
that the physician should speak with the patient, paying attention both to the patient's complaints, and to morphological changes which
always give valuable information for diagnostics (pain, changes in the skin, nails etc.).
DiaDENS devices offer several application techniques for the Foll method.
●
Express diagnostics - estimation of the functional condition on end points of energy meridians (see picture below)- for tentative
assessment at home;
●
Detailed study of energy meridians with the "falling pointer" effect;
●
Testing of medications;
●
Estimation of the functional condition of meridians in control points and others points*.
* Techniques of diagnostics on control and other points of various channels are described in detail in the literature on this subject. Device
operation does not differ from the express assessment technique as shown below, but it requires that the operator be theoretically and
practically prepared for this diagnostics; some theoretical and practical issues thus fall out of the scope of the present manual.
