In a nutshell, resonance in physics is the response of an object or a system to an externally applied oscillatory force. When the object or the system is a Biological one then we call it Bioresonance.

In more detail, everything has a unique oscillatory frequency. Our organs, our cells, vitamins, toxins, hormones etc. When we use Bioresonance diagnostically we are checking if there is a matching of diseased frequencies of the organs with the persons we are checking. When we are treating with Bioresonance we are emitting the healthy frequencies of organs with the intention of upgrading the frequencies of the organs in target with the result of upgrading their function. Another example will be when we are looking for a parasite in the body, we are emitting the frequencies of the specific parasite and if there is resonance with the body this means that the parasite is present. Then by emitting the mortal oscillatory frequencies of the specific parasite we can very targeted eliminate it from the body.
