Sorry, I have not tried this. Do you have a link to a site with info. on it?

I use an EMEM and a Doug Coil Machine and find both to be very helpful.

I would like to look at info. regarding the machine you are mentioning. I did look into some other machines a few months ago, not sure if this was one of them.

While this machine does work, it also has drawbacks.

It is not programmable which is the biggest fault with this device.

This machine is overpriced for its lack of features.

There are better machines for less, so I would not recommend this one.

It has been sold under several different names, and one person that was selling them under several names is facing up to 140 years in prison for selling them as a medical device.

So you may not even get this machine if you order it.

If you wonder why your doctor is reluctant to discuss Rife devices, you know why. You can get in serious trouble recommending an unapproved treatment for Lyme or any other medical condition.

One other problem the Global Wellness machine have had is the LCD display goes out quite frequently.

I am not buying this. A friend is letting me use it. It was her mothers machine that was used for cancer. So, I hope it works out and I will let you all know. I am rifing tomorrow. :-)

If you can use it, than go for it. They do work, they just are not the best buy if you are purchasing one.

Start with short times. No more than a minute, even less is better. Or else, you may be in a world of hurt.

Dan,

I spoke with Barby last night and gave her a list of lyme frequencies that I use - when you say it's not programmable, do you mean she can't plug different frequencies in and use them?

Just curious as I know nothing about the type of machine she has...

Lauren

I believe you can run individual frequencies, but I do not think the machine tells you what frequencies it is running for a conditon.

If you have it run its preprogrammed Lyme frequencies, it just runs them but you do not know what they consist of. You cannot add, subtract or alter the preprogrammed frequencies.

I don't think you can make your own custom frequency programs either. These would just run frequencies one after another without havng to punch them in every time. This is a feature of the GB-4000.

Other than these annoying drawbacks, it should work just as well as ony other contact device.
