Whenever I speak to people about Rifing, I’m amazed by the number of theories that come pouring out. So, if you’ve ever turned to Google for some answers and felt like you ended up through the looking glass, I don’t blame you. Some unscrupulous individuals take advantage of this confusion to sell theories and products that are based on half truths, and others cling to these theories because to let go would be too scary.
Here at Ticked Off With Lyme, we’re passionate about giving you clear, easy-to-understand information about rifing to enable you to make informed decisions about your treatment. Once you’ve got a good understanding of what rifing is, you’re able to push away all the hype and gain control over your treatment.

An Introduction to Frequency
Frequency indicates ‘how many’. Imagine you’re holding the end of a long piece of rope, and you begin to move it up and down so that it forms a ripple that looks like a wave. Now imagine tying a small piece of ribbon around one part of the rope. What you’ll see is that piece of ribbon moving up and down, up and down whilst the ripple is formed. The ribbon is moving from the highest point (the peak) of the wave, down to the lowest point (the trough) and back again.Frequency is a measurement of how many times that ribbon moves from the peak, to the trough, and back to peak in one second.
So, what happens when you move your hand up and down faster? More waves are formed on the rope, and the ribbon is moving up and down faster and completing more cycles per second – this means that the wave you are creating has a higher Frequency .Frequency is measured in Hertz, or Hz for short. The higher the number of Hz, the higher the frequency.
You may hear people talking about subsonic frequencies (0-20Hz), audio frequencies (20Hz-20kHz, ultrasonic frequencies (20kHz-100kHz), and radio frequencies (anything above). These are just names for ranges of frequencies. Interestingly, all the frequencies you will need to fight Lyme fit well within the audio frequency range, up to around 2000Hz. Some machines claim to use frequencies much higher than this, in the radio frequency range, although there is no in vitro evidence of this being effective.
[clear]Let’s have a look at ‘resonant frequency’
Resonant frequency has a few interchangeable names. It is regularly referred to as the natural frequency, and in terms of Royal Raymond Rife’s work, it is the Mortal Oscillatory Rate (MOR). All terms are interchangeable and mean exactly the same thing, however there is a great deal of misunderstanding around what the MOR is, and vast array of definitions, and so for this article I’ve chosen to use the term resonant frequency.
You’ve likely heard a lot aboutresonant Frequency. You’ve also likely heard a lot of contradictory and confusing statements about resonant frequencies, too. Many manufacturers would have you believe that this is a new concept that applies only to Rifing. You may have been told thatresonant Frequency is something that can be manipulated, altered or changed. The truth is thatresonant Frequency is an established, well-understood scientific concept.
Everything in the universe vibrates. This applies to atoms and molecules, and to larger structures like bacteria. The frequency at which something vibrates is called it’sresonant Frequency, or sometimes it’s natural frequency. Resonance has many applications ranging from building washing machines to satellite launchers. However, many would have you believe thatresonance applies only the use of rife machines, and unfortunately the term is frequently misused. It is presented as a complex principle, relating only to frequency treatments and that only the manufacturer has unlocked its secrets. Confusing jargon is mixed in with sales hype, which overwhelms and bamboozles.The simple truth is that in all these cases, the definition of resonance and its application is simply incorrect.
Let’s look at some facts aboutresonant Frequency.
resonant Frequency doesn’t change unless the substance itself changes. This is because it is based on some passive factors, such as mass and stiffness. Let’s look at water for a second. Some would
have you believe that you can rife a glass of water, ‘imprint‘ another frequency on the water, drink the water and receive the ‘healthy‘ frequency.Water is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. A water molecule will have a specific molecular mass, period (the mass of the three atoms). You can only change the mass of a water molecule by adding or removing atoms – which means it’s not water anymore. It may be O3 (ozone) or H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), but it’s not water! Additionally, you can only make this sort of change to a molecule through a chemical reaction, and not via an electromagnetic field.
The stiffness of a substance relates to how strong the bonds between the atoms are. Take another look at the picture of the water molecule. The lines between the hydrogen and oxygen molecules 
represent the bonds between them. In order to separate the three atoms, you need to apply more energy than the energy bonding them together, just as if you’re taking a magnet off the fridge. The stronger the magnet, the harder you need to pull (the more energy you need to apply). This is what’s meant by the stiffness of the substance. When you have a more complex structure, like a bacteria, you have lots more atoms, and many more bonds. When a structure is more complex, with more atoms and more bonds, it takes more energy to break them. Take a look at this glucose molecule – you can see that there are more bonds to break, thus requiring more energy.
I want to take a moment to talk about machines and therapies that claim to detect and read the frequencies emitted by pathogens. Any physicist or engineer will tell you that the process to work out a substance’sresonant Frequency is a purely mathematical one, relying on many complex formulae. This is because there is no device capable of reading the miniscule output created by a single celled organism. With regards to Lyme disease, frequencies have been found through trial and error (but have been observed in vitro). Be aware that even though these therapies use the termresonance that this is not, in actual fact, a demonstration ofresonance. You should question very carefully exactly how such a device claims to read these frequencies when the best scientific minds in the world have not been able to do so.
[clear]So what’s resonant frequency got to do with Rifing?
In order to fully understand how a Rife machine works, we need to understandresonance. When you excite an organism with its ownresonant Frequency, it causes the organism to resonate. Do you see that there’s a subtle difference there? Great, let’s look at whatresonance is then.
When a system, or a substance, is resonant, it takes very little input power to get a high output power. Imagine you’re pushing someone on a swing at the park. It takes quite a lot of effort to get it going, but once the swing gets going, you barely have to push at all to keep the swing going at the same height. If you kept using the same power input (you kept pushing as hard) the swing would eventually end up swinging over the top. It’s similar with a rife machine – you are exciting the organism at it’s own natural frequency, but we do not reduce the power so the organism becomes resonant, and ruptures (likened to the swing going over the bar). So, when an organism reachesresonance, you are applying the same amount of power, and the vibrations ‘take on a life of their own’ and keep vibrating with ever greater power until it ruptures.
Have you ever seen an old washing machine ‘walk across the floor?’. When a washing machine does this, it’s because the system has achievedresonance, due to the vibrations of the drum. The vibrations have ‘taken on a life of their own’ and get stronger and stronger with the same power input. How is this stopped? By either changing the mass (a heavier casing increasing the mass of the system) or the stiffness (by applying internal brackets to increase the stiffness of the system). When that’s been the done, the drum will continue to vibrate, but that will no longer match theresonant Frequency of the case – and you end up with a washing machine that stays put! The great thing aboutresonance is that bacteria are unable to change their mass or stiffness, so are completely vulnerable to Rifing.
We’ve all heard the analogy of the opera singer smashing a glass when singing the right note. This is because the glass is being excited at it’s natural, or resonant, frequency. When you cause a substance to vibrate at itsresonant Frequency, and therefore cause it to resonate, the bonds holding the substance together can’t withstand the force of the increasing vibration, and break. Do you think that if the opera singer sang the same note (the same frequency) but much quieter, it would still break? It wouldn’t, would it? So now we need to ask ourselves what else is at play here.
If the singer sings a C note, which has a specificFrequency, once very loudly and again very quietly, what’s changed? They are both a C note with the exact same frequency. It is theamplitude of the wave, which is the measurement from the crest of the wave to the baseline. It’s essentially ‘how tall’ the wave is. Theamplitude of a wave is related to the energy which it transports. The loud C note will have a much greateramplitude (therefore energy) than the quiet C note. The higheramplitude is needed to excite the glass. You could even think of theamplitude as being similar to how much force you push the swing with in our earlier example.
So, in order to cause an organism to resonate, we not only need to take into account theresonant Frequency of the organism, but we need to apply the correctamplitude to the wave in order for it to be effective. This brings us onto our next topic – where we’re going to look at how we deliver these frequencies to the body with the correct power.
[clear]How frequency is delivered to the body
At this point, we understand whatFrequency means, what aresonant Frequency is, and whatresonance is. We also know that simply creating aFrequency is not enough to kill an organism, and that we need to ensure that the correct energy is applied to cause it to resonate. This part is determined by your machine.
There are several different types of energy. Let’s have a look back at the opera singer/wine glass analogy. This uses sound energy. When we speak, shout or sing, we cause pressure changes in the air using our vocal chords. In the human ear, the ear drum vibrates because of these pressure changes, and this is then translated by the brain into what we know as sound. Sound is not an appropriate energy to use for Rifing, because it has a fairly low energy which is absorbed by human tissue very easily. Imagine placing a pebble on top of a jelly. The jelly represents human tissue and the pebble represents the pathogen. Now imagine using your finger to wobble the jelly back and forth. This motion represents the changes in air pressure and how it affects the body. You’ll notice the pebble doesn’t move very much at all, because most of the motion is absorbed by the jelly. Sound won’t work.
Some machines use plasma. This is a light tube which flashes on and off at the setFrequency. Many would have you believe that it is light which is transmitting the energy here, but it is in fact because the motion of on/off is creating a spark which generates a weak magnetic field. This brings us nicely on to the topic of electromagnetism, and why it’s how both Rife and Doug MacLean chose to build their machines.
Both Tesla and Maxwell demonstrated that magnetic waves penetrate everything, including the earth. This is the defining hallmark of electromagnetism. Electromagnetic waves can pass through the human body with very little energy loss. So, in order to deliver the desired frequency to our body, we require an electromagnetic field to do so. This magnetic field needs to be the correct strength so that theFrequency has the correctamplitude to excite the pathogen intoresonance. How can we do that? We achieve that through ensuring that the Rife machine has the correct components and is calibrated correctly.
[clear]Theories and therapies that claim to utilise resonance (but actually do not)
Whilst this is by no means an exhaustive list, I’ve included the most common misconceptions I’ve come across regarding resonance as it pertains to Rifing:
- Any device or therapy that claims to detect and identify the resonant frequency of a pathogen or organ, is not utilising resonance in any way. We now know that it is impossible to detect the miniscule amount of energy produced.
- Any claim that the human body can ‘shut out’ frequencies as a defence mechanism are not discussing frequencies in the scientifically recognised way. We now know that electromagnetic energy passes through all substances, as shown by Tesla & Maxwell.
- Any claim that bacteria can change their frequency in order to evade treatment. We now know that resonant frequency is determined by molecular mass and stiffness, and that one or both of these would need to change for the resonant frequency to change. This would mean the substance has changed into something else.
- The claim that there are healthy/unhealthy, good/bad, harmonious/inharmonious frequency ranges and that pathogens somehow choose to exist in these ranges. Pathogens are not drawn to or choose certain frequencies, their frequencies are set and defined by established scientific principles.
- The claim that you can boost for example, your liver function, by using the resonant frequency of liver cells. We now know that to expose a structure to its resonant frequency will result in the structure itself becoming resonant and vibrating at ever higher amplitudes – resulting in destruction.
Conclusion
We’ve made it to the end! Well done for sticking with me – there’s a huge amount of information here. Hopefully, though, you feel as if you have a better understanding ofresonance. For the next article, we’ll be taking an in-depth look at what a Rife machine actually is and how to ensure that yours is capable of producingresonance.
