Electrotherapy - An alternative to the scalpel!

Breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men: these are the most common incidences of cancer. Electrotherapy (ECT) is increasingly proving to be a real alternative to an operation.

“I had not felt or noticed anything. I was therefore shocked when my gynaecologist said  after a mammogram: “Mrs. Stein, you have breast cancer!” Then came the next shock, the result of the biopsy: It was malignant!”

Christel Stein, a trained nurse, was 47 years old when she was confronted with this diagnosis. The doctors in the hospital wanted to amputate her right breast. The date was already fixed.  However, the mother of four sons (20 to 27) and her husband Wilfried (59) looked for alternatives. “I heard about the successes achieved with “Electro Cancer Therapy (ECT). My husband and I travelled to Cologne, Germany to the “Institute for Organo Bio-Therapy” to meet the ECT therapist Hans-Peter Weber. Following his examination, Dr. Weber sent me for a PET (positron-emission-tomography) examination, where it was discovered that the size of the cancerous growth was approximately 1.5 cm.” ECT therapist Hans-Peter Weber (60): “A PET examination is much more exact than the conventional computer tomography examination and the radiation exposure is lower. The PET is a tumour detection machine which also recognises cancer cells which are not discovered in the conventional diagnostic. After this examination, I began the electro-therapy.” All together, Mr. Weber needed to carry out four three-hour treatments. Afterwards no cancer was traceable. That was in August 2002. Christel Stein: “The yearly PET check-ups have confirmed the one hundred percent success of the therapy.  I am healthy and cured and could retain my breast thanks to the ECT therapy. I am now 50 years old, fully resilient and feel top fit. My family and I are very glad and grateful that we found this gentle alternative therapy.”

Hans-Peter Weber, Head of the “Institute for Organo-Bio-Therapy” in Cologne, Germany, is a well known and experienced ECT therapist. Mr. Weber, who comes from Saarbrücken in Germany, has worked with “ECT” for seven years and uses the electrotherapy exclusively in the area of oncology. Hans-Peter Weber: “The therapy is carried out on an outpatient basis and the treatment takes about three hours. Depending on the size of the tumour, two or more electrodes in the form of thin needles and flat electrodes are either placed directly in the tumour through the skin or placed outside. During the treatment, the patient feels a slight prickling. The course of the therapy is computer-controlled, so that the patient is continually monitored visually. Many tumours are on the surface, in which case they are usually easily accessible. The success of this direct current therapy is based on the deliberate, fast destruction of a tumour or a tumour field. Due to the gradual, switchable direct current source with the aid of electrode probes, a very acidic environment results in which the tumour tissue can not survive. The cell membranes are perforated and the cancer cells die.  As a result, the body’s natural immune cells are able to penetrate the cancer cells and eliminate them. Because the current flow should damage the healthy tissue as little as possible, the therapy can only be carried out when the lump is easily accessible for the needle electrodes. Bones and tissue with a high water proportion discharge the current, so that if for example there is a lump in the bladder, it can not be treated with electrodes.

A method which is not painful and has no side effects. The electro cancer therapy was first practiced in Sweden more than 20 years ago. It came to Germany via China and Denmark. A recent observational study of the “Institute for Organo-Bio-Therapy” in Cologne, Germany, with 608 cancer patients who had been given up by conventional medicine as untreatable, shows that the “ECT” therapy has had convincing successes concerning prostate cancer, skin cancer and lung cancer, in addition to breast cancer. The internist, Dr. Wolfgang Layer from Berlin, Germany, is a strong supporter of the ECT therapy: “It can be a real alternative to the scalpel. Being an orthodox medical practicioner, I was at first sceptical about the therapy. However, the practice shows that especially in the case of breast and prostate cancer, the successes are convincing.”

The tax consultant Klaus-Jürgen Grube (63) also swears by the ECT therapy: “I am delighted by the success of the therapy. The diagnosis of my urologist was prostate cancer. I didn’t want an operation and looked for alternatives, which I eventually found in Mr. Weber’s electro therapy. Mr. Weber needed eleven treatments all together. That was three years ago. The therapy was painless. I only felt a slight prickling. I feel super and have retained my virility thanks to the electro therapy. The yearly check-ups have confirmed: No more cancer detectable.”
