How Wearing Metal & Body Piercing Harms Your Health & Happiness

It is a little known fact, that metal anywhere on your body negatively affects your health. How can that be? In his article, "Chinese lessons for modern chiropractors" Dr. George Goodheart, the father of Applied Kinesiology spoke of his discovery called the Antenna Effect. He found that it is possible to tape a small metal ball onto an acupuncture point and accomplish longer term stimulation to that point. These little BB's are now called AcuAids and are used by thousands of doctors daily. This was an important discovery. Like those tiny BB's, any metal that is constantly on a given point on the human body may cause problems. The critical factor is where the points are located on the body.

Acupuncture is a therapy that has been used by the Chinese for thousands of years where metal needles are stuck into different parts of the body. It is based on meridians. Meridians are pathways of energy in the body. Hundreds of different people meditated long enough so that eventually they could all see all the meridians, the pathways of energy. Everyone who could see these pathways saw them in the same areas and flowing in the same direction. Today, modern science has instruments that has confirmed the existence of these meridians and acupuncture points.

Where-ever metal is present, it distorts the energy flow. If it is located near a meridian, it throws off the meridians and can have a small or even a large effect, especially long term on a person’s health. They may never realize. In the past, major problems have been from people having metal fillings in their mouths.

People also have their health affected to a certain degree from piercing their ears. These days people are piercing more and more parts of their ears, without any idea of what they are doing to themselves. There is another whole set of acupuncture points on the ears. Every energy center of the body can be represented on a part of the ear.

Perhaps two of the most important energy centers in the body are two areas where people are now commonly starting to pierce their bodies.

One is the tongue. This is where the meridian for the central nervous system and its counter part, the governing system meet. Some people put a stud right in the middle of their tongue. My body cringes when I think of the harm they are doing to themselves energetically.

A more common are of body piercing is the navel. This is right on the meridian for the central nervous system. The central nervous system is responsible for just about every single functioning part of your body. So if you have metal on your central meridian this can obviously have all kinds of effects on all kinds of different parts of your health. One would never realize the preoblems relate to the stud on the navel.

The navel area is also very important for another reason. If you ask people who do martial arts, you will learn that this area is called the “hara”. This is your main power center. If you want to do martial arts you focus on this power center. If you want to pick up a heavy box, focus on this center. Any time you want to be stronger, if you feel this area, you will have more strength. Putting a metal stud there distorts and short circuits the energy.

Of course, another problem with metal on the body is that you may absorb some of the metal, especially if you use any metal other than gold or silver. Probably the best way to remove metals from the body is by chelation. I recently did a course of chelation by suppository, which is 25% cheaper than traditional intravenous chelation. After the equivalent of about ten I.V. sessions, I got a terrible red rash on my hand. It was burning and very itchy and incredibly dry for a week. This happened twice after taking the suppositories. The only thing that relieved the itching was vitamine E oil which I smeared on from a Vitamine E capsule. I was trying to work out what was causing this when my husband pointed out to me that it was on my right ring finger. Immediately, I got a picture in my mind of a pewter ring that I wore a lot on that finger when I was around 16 years old. When I told Michael this, he then told me that there was lead in pewter, which I had not known. So I am quite sure that the chelation was removing this lead from my body.

I undertand that the original use for piercing was to identify slaves, in the same way that farmers today pierce their farm animals. So piercing the body (and tatoos as well) can have spiritual ramifications in addition to the energetic ramifications which affect one's health. The first thing to do is obviously to remove the metal instruments.

Hi SunChild,

That is really interesting. I see an acupuncturist and she also mentioned that piercings can affect health.

Makes me think twice about getting any new piercings!

I also wonder if in some cases piercings can actually *inprove* health? Maybe by specifically using gold or silver on a specific area, depending on each individual's health concern?
