Participants and methods
Five women aged 45–52 took part in this observation by Dr Mirjam Repa Reuss at Centro de Medicina Natural Canarias, presented in the IGEF report. The participants were described as three to four years after breast-cancer treatment.
Morning fasting capillary blood samples were examined by dark-field microscopy. Each participant then rested for 90 minutes between two Somavedic Medic devices before another sample was taken and photographed.
Results
- The report describes a visual reduction in red blood cell aggregation, including rouleaux clusters, in the follow-up images.
- The images were assessed descriptively. The report provides no quantified image scores or statistical comparison.
Study context
The observation compares each participant’s before-and-after images. It used no separate control group, sham device or blinded image assessment. The method was dark-field microscopy, not a standard erythrocyte sedimentation-rate test; blood flow, oxygenation and immune function were not measured.
