Preface
The Strannik software program was developed by the medical doctor, physicist,
mathematician and medical researcher Dr Igor Gennadyevich Grakov (Technical Director,
Mimex Montague Healthcare Limited) following an initial program of research at the
University of Novosibirsk in the early 1980s which involved investigating the medical
application of industrial lasers. Dr Grakov identified that this use of monochromatic light
could induce a biological response. It was from such beginnings that Strannik technology
was developed (see www.mimex.ru).
This project has continued to be developed. In the late 20th century and into the 21st
century Dr Grakov has been assisted by Dr.Y. Borovleva, a neurologist; and
Dr.Yu.Spassky, computer programmer; although Dr Spassky has now moved on to the
successful extension of his career with other companies. In early 2014 Mimex and
Montague Healthcare merged in order to enable the merged entity to entertain discussions
with potential investors.
The technology has been presented in several versions to date. Please note that further
versions of the technology are likely although none are likely to involve fundamental
changes to the basic algorithms upon which this technology is based. Originally, this
technology comprised several individual programmes e.g. the psychological profile
(Strannik for Business) and the physiological profile (Strannik for Health); although both
involved the exact same test procedure. Both programmes are now incorporated into this
one software programme. This appears to illustrate that our psychology and physiology are
two-sides of the same coin i.e. that pathological change is accompanied by psychological
change e.g. to cognition and behaviour and/or that psychological change is the consequence
of pathological development. A demonstration of this technology can be viewed on
http://www.montaguediagnostics.co.uk/pmwiki.php/Main/Video
Practitioners may not wish to dwell upon the significance of such developments. They may
not be interested in ther psychological aspects of this technology and may wish to dwell
only upon the ability to screen the patients health and/or to correct autonomic dysfunction.
In such cases the practitioners should choose from the agenda the appropriate selections
which are likely to be of interest to them.
Finally, Strannik practitioners should be trained to use this quite complex technology.
MMHL is able to provide training by Skype and email. Practitioners should recognise that
this needs to accompanied by an in-depth training course to be run by MMHL. They should
plan accordingly. In the event of queries related to the installation of the technology or
interpretation of test data please contact Dr Elena Nikolayevna Ewing, Medical Director &
Training Manager (elena.ewing@montaguehealthcare.co.uk).
Foreword
All aspects of the bodys function, both physiological and psychological, are essentially
biochemical. Strannik Virtual Scanning & Strannik Light Therapy are based upon a unique
understanding of the relationship between sensory input, the brain, the autonomic nervous
system and physiological systems, and how such changes influence cellular and molecular
biology, i.e. of genotype and phenotype. This is significant because the emergence of
pathologies influences color perception.
Alterations to genotype and phenotype influence our health and behavior. Gene profiling,
in particular, has been adapted for use in matching personality profiles e.g. in gene dating,
although this excludes the very considerable influence of phenotype. Accordingly, changes
to Color Perception can be adapted with diagnostic and therapeutic effect in both
Physiology and Psychology.
Virtual Scanning has evolved significantly since Grakovs first prototypes. Different
versions of the technology are available. In addition other versions of the technology can be
developed according to market or client requirements e.g. biofeedback technologies using
light and colour as the feedback modality have been used in the educational market for
many years however these technologies are experiential. None of these competitor
technologies are based upon a fundamental recognition or understanding of a core scientific
principle.
Strannik PPS is a system for the diagnosis and support of the unconscious (subconscious).

Introduction
Strannik is a technology which is used to assess and correct the subconscious (unconscious)
mind which controls the human body. The following present-day knowledge was taken as a
starting point: the subconscious (unconscious) mind ensures psychophysiological
homeostasis however, while interacting with the environment, errors are introduced into the
bodys regulatory mechanism on a daily basis, thereby changing the stability and/or
function of the organs. This deteriorates the quality of proteins which are produced in the
body e.g. diseases, fat accretion and aging ("destabilization" is the generic term for this
complex of problems).
The brain processes sensory input and stores these experiences as memories. Extremes of
sensory input, which we experience as stress, influence the autonomic nervous structures.
We can use colour to influence the function of the autonomic nervous system e.g. red
influences the sympathetic nervous system and raises heart rate whilst green influences the
parasympathetic nervous system and slows heart rate.
Most medical conditions, diseases, drugs and vaccines influence our colour perception.
They influence the stability of the autonomic nervous system. Accordingly changes to
colour perception must be markers for the many and various pathologies which are
characteristic of common medical conditions, and which are caused by diet, diseases,
drugs, vaccines, etc. For example how the occurrence of diabetes is accompanied by
changes to blue-yellow colour perception.
The prevailing healthcare model or paradigm has yet to explain why we remain healthy and
why we develop morbidities. It has yet to explain the influence of nutrition, viruses,
vaccines, and drugs upon the bodys regulated function. Every drug depends upon the
autonomic nervous system for its effect therefore the solution must depend upon
understanding in greater detail how the brain regulates the autonomic nervous system i.e.
how proteins are genetically expressed, how these expressed proteins subsequently react,
how the bioluminescence of such reactions influences the normal spectrum and intensity of
colour perception, and how such physiological changes influence our function.
The Russian researcher I.G.Grakov has mathematically modelled the autonomic nervous
system. It uses measurements of colour perception as the data sets for the model and links
molecular biology, cellular biology, the function of the organs and organ networks (the
physiological or functional systems) to the function of the brain. As outlined earlier,
changes at the molecular level induce changes to colour perception i.e. proteins emit
biophotons of light during the process of reaction with reactive substrates. The intensity
and colour of the light (bioluminescence) emitted can be used as a biochemical marker.
Moreover this emission of light influences colour perception therefore a cognitive test can
be used to provide the data sets for Grakovs mathematical model. The consequence is a
test which can determine or screen for the emergence and progression of pathologies from
the earliest pre-symptomatic origins, to determine the genetic and phenotypic components
for each medical condition, to determine the common pathologies in each organ (5-15
pathologies in circa 30 organs are reported). In addition, the technique is non-invasive,
results are available in circa 20 minutes and the cost of the test is significantly lower than
that of genetic screening or indeed any other form of medical screening or diagnostic test.
Moreover as the model links molecular biology, cellular biology, the function of the organs
and organ networks then so too must it diagnose at these levels, and it does so in Strannik
Virtual Scanning technology i.e. Strannik Virtual Scanning (SVS). Such a model can be
used predictively to illustrate to patients what will happen to them if they continue with
their current unhealthy lifestyle(s). This has immense value because an estimated 90% of
morbidities are considered preventable i.e. they are the consequence of poor lifestyles.
This technology also has therapeutic potential. The recognition of the pathological profile
or health report can be used to determine the precise parameters of a Biofeedback-type light
therapy i.e. Strannik Light Therapy (SLT). The Strannik solution is intended to detect
and correct the destabilization process (autonomic dysfunction) taking into account that the
color ensures over 90% of control by driving and giving direction to physiological
functions.
The background to Strannik technology has been outlined extensively in a series of articles
published by Graham Ewing (see Appendix 1 bibliography). This augments the early
published work by Anokhin, Vysochin, Grakov, and others.

Installing & Running the Program/incl Therapy Module
2.1 Introduction
The software has been redesigned to run on Windows 7 or Windows 8. The recommended
screen resolution is 1280 x 1024 (the height is not less than 1024 pixels).
The white flash drive has all necessary files for installation of Strannik Virtual Scanner
program as well as Strannik Light Therapy. Insert it in your computer. After installation
you may remove this flash drive from your computer.
The black flash drive is the access key (Sentinel HASP Protection System) for you to
access and use Strannik Virtual Scanner. To be able to access Strannik Virtual Scanner
program this key must be inserted into USB port of your computer. Please note: this key
will be automatically activated the moment you access Strannik Virtual Scanner program
first time and it will be automatically switched off after a month (1, 2, 3, 6 months
according to practitioner contract). See section 9 of the Operating Manual.
Installation Problems
Some antivirus programs might block access to installed program - in this case, you must
manually go into the quarantine section and restore the file to unblock access i.e. the
program may not install properly due to other program e.g. Norton anti-virus. Norton antivirus may detect parts of the program as a virus or unwanted program. This is not a
problem with the Strannik program and can usually be overcome. It is a problem of the
operating parameters which have been included in the Norton program. In such cases we
suggest to contact Dr Elena Ewing who will guide you through this process. Guidance
notes will be issued in the future.

What is Strannik Technology & how does it work?
The Strannik software technology, which comprises Strannik Virtual Scanning & Strannik
Light Therapy, is split into three or four parts: the test, the processing of the test results and
the provision of the test results (psychological and physiological), the selection of the light
therapy and the provision of the biofeedback type light therapy.
The test is a games-like procedure which requires the patient to study and memorise a
selection of colours in the computer-based test. It requires the practitioner to insert the
patients identifying details, birth date, weight (weighed on a suitably calibrated set of
scales to within +/- 1 kgs) and gender. The patient presses the ENTER key and the test
begins. The task for the patient is to study and memorise the colours of a video which is
shown to the patient for 15 seconds. At the end of this period the colour selection is altered
by the imposition of a colour filter. The task for the patient is to use the mouse to select
colours from the colour palette and to re-establish, to the best of their abilities, the original
colour balance. The test takes typically 2-3 minutes and is repeated abt 4-5 times with
different colour selections.
N.B. Each patient should have been allowed a short period, typically of 5 minutes duration,
to practice before undertaking the test.
Upon completion of the test, the data is processed and the patient is provided with the test
results and/or alternatively with the therapy programme which is provided by the
practitioner via a flash-drive or CD i.e. to be installed on their home computer. Their task is
to watch the computer programme, a selection of flashing lights, for circa 1-2 times each
day.
A selection of demonstration videos (illustrating version 7G) is available on
http://www.montaguediagnostics.co.uk/pmwiki.php/Main/Video
The results of the analysis: of differences between the subjective reality proposed by the
external environment (in this case, by the computer moving image) and the objective
reality created by the observer based upon his/her ability to complete the test i.e. their
emotional and/or physiological state; are used to detect and develop an information map of
the observer's psychosomatic and physiological condition at a point of time which may be
of value regarding the provision of further psychological or physiological care.
The test process and interpretation of test results are summarized in the following series of
figures 1-35. The process is relatively simple although the interpretation of results is more
complex.

Diagnostics
SuperVisual technologies (figures 1-12) based upon personal biological modeling were
used for diagnostic purposes for the first time in the world. This solution allows the
practitioner to show structural changes of patient's organs (see figures 13-26b) in the most
informative 3D graphic format. For the operator's convenience, these 3D graphic films
come with additional tools (markers, descriptions, bar graphs) which contribute to a better
quality of interpretation of the diagnostic results. These will be described in later chapters.
4.1
Those patients who feel comfortable exhibit a total deviation of up to 10 points from zero.
A higher deviation level gives evidence of certain problems.
Normal brain function charts shall be smooth and synchronous.
Saw-toothed curves show that the patient drank alcohol, took drugs or suffered
from psycho-emotional stress on the days before the diagnostic test.
Determine the dominant function of the patient: this function exhibits lower deviation
from zero.
Each age has its own dominant function:
under 15 yrs: perception; 15-30 yrs: imagination; 31-50 yrs: memory (and associative
thinking);over 50 yrs: information processing (decision-making, image application)
For example (see figure 14). The report shows: perception: +3 units; imagination: +17
units; memory: +25 units; and image application: +18 units. The patient has a total
deviation of >10 units in three functions which indicates the presence of a problem. The
dominant function is perception (+3 units), the most deviated is memory (+25 units).
The individual with predominating perception (without or with low deviation as compared
to other functions) lives in his/her feelings. This is normal for a child, but absolutely
unacceptable for certain occupations.
(ii)
Your capabilities exist in your imagination i.e. a workshop of the mind. Imagination is able
to transform the intellectual energy into ideas, concepts and welfare. The function
manifests itself as the synthetic or creative imagination. The synthetic imagination is
used to make new combinations of available concepts, ideas and designs. Creating nothing
new, this function is commonly used for generalizing observations, as well as in education.
Most inventions originate from this function. Using the creative imagination, the
subconscious mind perceives and transforms all general or new ideas and establishes
contact with the subconscious mind of other individuals. Operating automatically, the
creative imagination needs positive emotional stimulus or stress. Great businessmen,
industrialists, financiers, artists, musicians, poets and writers owe their success to the
creative imagination.
When idle, the imagination fades without disappearing. The more the imagination is used,
the more efficient it is.
Excessive function shows that the individual operates redundant images. The image
(matrix, signal) means presentation of any situation in thinking codes. An increase of
function causes overloading of signals thus generating unnecessary redundant matrices
in the brain. Accordingly the imagination function is delayed and inefficient. The
formation of new matrices becomes increasingly difficult and reduces the capability to
produce new thoughts. In this case, people complain of lack of inspiration. The
combination of excessive imagination and diminished perception entails diseases of
sensory systems (hearing and sight).
Insufficient imagination function generates poor images. The individual is unable to
generalize or learn something new. Such people often "think about nothing".
When imagination is dominant it provides advantages to creative workers, but in other
cases, the correction is recommended. For example, the manager involved in the creative
activity neglects his/her direct functions.
(iii)
This function, of memory and associative thinking, emerged in the past. The ability to
perceive the present is one side of the reality however an inability to face the past is
(iv)
Predominance of Information Processing Rate - over 50 yrs: DecisionMaking/ Image Application
At present, scientists believe that the decision making process is connected by a flexible
information model formed in the control system of the brain. The "model of the required
future" is the highest level of the hierarchical control system. This flexible and dynamic
program enables the organism to deal with unexpected barriers preventing it from moving
along the path outlined by the main program. Correction pulses intended to reconstruct the
behavior plan will not assist in overcoming the above barriers. In this case the organism
relies upon information provided by the sensory organs which gives a signal to alter the
model (program). This results in minor corrections, deep reorganization and acceptance of
a new program. The modified or new program is used for further correction of behavior.
The program changes and correction of behaviour occurs.
Excessive decision making function requires excess amount of nervous connections
which are activated by the brain. The brain transmits repeated signals i.e. the individual
repeats one and the same thing to persuade his/her interlocutor.
Insufficient function involves an insufficient number of connections. The
transmitted signal is incomplete making the decision ineffective.
The manager with dominant decision making function achieves excellent results in his/her
office.
In Summary,
Alterations in the functional ratio result in dominant changes. In this case, old men revert
to a childlike state and young people start thinking as old men or even worse. As the brain
adapts to its environment, the dominant function may change under specific occupational
conditions e.g. blue-collar workers - perception; creative workers - imagination; whitecollar workers - associative thinking; managers - decision making function; the child acting
as a carer to a parent becomes prematurely mentally and physically mature.
Dominant functional changes may be attributed to many other reasons (in most cases) changes in relations between external and internal environment of human life activity. The
predominance of any function does not mean that other functions disappear. On the
contrary, they naturally act providing support to the dominant function.
4.2
Earlier versions of the technology reported in the book Virtual Scanning The
Next Generation of Healthcare Beyond Biomedicine? discussed how the emergence of
pathologies could influence the patients psychological profile and hence their ability to
start, develop and complete a task i.e. the decision-making progress comprises a sequence
of the following stages: intention wish will knowledge imagination
implementation prioritization - ability to act memory experience supervision effectiveness.
Figures 29 & 30 illustrate how this technology is able to define a wide range of
psychological traits. The full list of psychological traits reported is included in Appendix 3.
An earlier version of this technology expressed these psychological traits in positive and
negative terms e.g. (+/rational) joy, abstinence (devotion), patience, righteousness,
community, truthfulness, goodness, creativity, labour and inventiveness; and (-/emotional)
ignorance (obstinacy/stubbornness), sorrow, immoderation, desire, injustice, greed,
mendacity, envy, cunning, anger (resentment), hastiness, and guile (secretiveness).
(i)
The Dark-blue signals exceed the Red signals. This is indicative of the failure of
the innate suppressive mechanisms to cope with environmental aggression.
The Red signals exceed the Dark-blue signals. This is indicative of an emergent
problem i.e. of failure of the innate suppressive mechanisms to cope with environmental
aggression. This would be accompanied by signs of abnormal or altered behaviour.
There are only red signals. This is indicative of a periodic pattern problem perhaps
affecting evening and morning diagnostics i.e. an emergent personality disorder arising
from the failure of the innate suppressive mechanism to cope with environmental
aggression. This could be seen as abnormal behavior "in general" e.g. as eccentric,
cantankerous, angry, moody, etc. A persistent personality disorder is associated with the
onset or emergence of disease i.e. the declining biological function of the body to express
proteins or deal with stress.
5.
Interpretation of the Test Results - Physiological.
The diagnostic results for the health of the patient are outlined in the following chapter.
Before proceeding it is essential to provide a definition of the terms which are used in the
test results:
SIGNAL (expressed as red and blue) this is a combination of chemical, physical and
biological processes that work towards the transition of an organ or a system from healthy
condition to a disease.
The following syndromes are general processes which are mainly expressed in different
organs and systems:
DEGENERATIVE PROCESS - the weakening of vital functions of cells and tissues.
CHRONIC FATIGUE the change in physical, chemical and biological characteristics of
tissues, as a result of stress(es), including psycho-emotional stress(es).
NEOPLASM the rise of cells groups of non-malignant or malignant character and also
any formation of new tissue.
5.1
5.2
The morphology of the organs changes in response to our lifetime of experiences i.e. as the
organism ages and also from the influence of hereditary and/or degenerative processes. The
innate compensatory abilities of the organism declines and changes become more stable
and explicit. The chronic state starts to predominate.
The following options (the colours surrounding the organs or as expressed on the pie-chart)
are indicative of changes of cell morphology (presented by markers as indicators of a
morphology state):
(i)
(ii)
Red marker. Increased amount of blood vessels per tissue unit. Indicative of
inflammatory processes.
(iii) Violet marker. Decreased amount of blood vessels per tissue unit. Indicative of
sclerotic processes, heart attacks, apoplectic attacks, etc.
(iv) Light-blue marker. Accelerated function. Indicative of processes with functional
changes e.g. dyskinesia, etc; brought to the fore.
(v)
(vi) Dark-blue marker. Excess number of young cells. Indicative of neoplasia. Take into
account that the balance periodically tips toward young cells in 2-3 organs of each
individual.
(vii) Yellow marker. Excess number of old cells. Indicative of diminished functional and
adaptive abilities of the organ.
Periodic (unstable) morphological changes: if the colour surrounding the organ changes
e.g. from green to blue to green, the morphological changes are periodic or unstable.
Green marker other colour marker (see figure 19) green marker.
Persistent (stable) morphological changes: if the colour surrounding the organ changes
e.g. from green to red, the morphological changes are persistent or stable.
Green marker other colour marker (see figure 19).
The dark-blue signals exceed red signals. Indicative of failure of own suppression
mechanisms to cope with environmental aggression.
(iii)
5.4
The functional systems are involved in homeostasis. The top box lists the physiological
systems.
Highlight one of the physiological functional systems. This will be accompanied by a list
(below on the lhs) of the organs which constitute the highlighted physiological functional
system. (In figure 23(a) highlighted physiological functional system is the system which
sustains optimal cell content of the blood). The organs contained in this particular
physiological functional system are: brain, pituitary gland, adrenal gland, blood and
peripheral blood vessels, musculoskeletal system, and spleen.
To see the most destabilized physiological functional system press SUMMARY in figure
23(a) e.g. maintains optimal sleeping pattern in figure 23(b & c); then select an organ
which has a dominant role in changes of destabilizing functional system in "Summary" e.g.
as highlighted in figure 23: EAR: 61 units. Strannik defines the origin of the changes
(hereditary or acquired) and shows the stability (recurrence) of the changes.
The operator may look through a list of functional systems via "Summary". Strannik shows
the role of each system in homeostasis changes. If necessary, the operator may display the
content and function of each system.
5.5
Strannik Virtual Scanning enables the practitioner to assess the state of each physiological
system. The most destabilized physiological system is indicated in figure 26. Each system
is defined according to the morphology which is defined in each pie chart or set of bar
graphs.
(b)
(c)
(d)
The presence of red signals on each of the above four scales and nonconformity of age
criteria (when the biological age exceeds the calendar age) is indicative of greater psychooncological risk. The summary report (figures 25 a & b) highlights the areas of greatest
psycho-oncological risk. If the results denote:
Present the instead of Absent,
Under 30 yrs.
Under 40 yrs.
Under 50 yrs.
Over 50 yrs.
Under 70 yrs.
Over 70 yrs.

Treatment (Colour Correction/Strannik Light Therapy)
6.1 Correction Process Overview
Strannik Light Therapy (SLT) is used for correction. By giving an exact treatment mode
within the space-time and spectrum range, the SLT technology provides new opportunities
for interaction between visible light range and living tissue. This interaction has a positive
effect on the biological tissue. SLT enables the practitioner and patient to carry out highly
selective photo-processing with accurate localization, individual dosing and absolute
sterility. Due to its high efficiency, SLT could be the first stage of treatment of any disease
(discomfort), along with further involvement of other methods, if necessary.
biomathematical model and a required course of colour therapy which is based on the
patients unique and personal diagnostic results. There are over 16,000, 000 colour shades.
In practice, the light therapy has the following effect on the human body: light photon with
preset parameters -> eye -> neuron -> control signal to the preset organ. The colour
parameters are calculated in the reverse order. The precise characteristics of the control
signal depends on pathological problems which are detected at the diagnostic stage. In
addition to colours, SLT calculates the pulsation frequency (pulsating color set) and
duration (dose) for each patient.
Any computer may be used to conduct the correction. In this case, a small program shall be
installed on the patient's computer. After the diagnostic test, the patient is given a digital
computer file containing his/her correction course. To start the correction course, the
patient shall integrate this file into the correction program. The correction course is unique
for each patient.
It is recommended that the patient apply the therapy twice daily e.g. in the morning and
evening. It would be even better, if one of the daily applications of the therapy is done at
the time of day the diagnostic test was taken. An ideal time for therapy: just after the test.
To check things, take two tests, one in the morning and one in the evening, when the person
is tired.
SLT is the most promising correction method intended to recover regulatory abilities of the
organism. In addition to required local effects, this correction technology appears to
produce the following general effects:
Increased number of lymphocytes and red blood cells.
Increased maximum oxygen consumption and improved oxygen supply to the
heart.
Accelerated ptyalin activity and increased secretion of digestive juices.
Increased enzyme content in the pancreatin, normalized absorption of fatty acids in
the intestine and improved motor function of the large intestine.
Increased content of blood thyroxin and pancreatic beta cells.
Increased content of male reproductive hormones/Increased female estrogen
secretion.
Increased levels of immune function
Improved hearing, sight and sense of smell.
6. Sensitivity peaks differ in number (portion) of neurons involved in the above reactions,
rather than in degree of effect manifestation for certain neurons. Different peaks are
characterized by different degree of manifestation of the required reaction.
The color correction dosage directly depends on the results of diagnostics performed by the
patient. In fact, the dose level gives an indirect evidence of the adequate response of the
subconscious (unconscious) mind to the external action, i.e. the lower percentage the color
correction is, the more adequate response is delivered by the brain to the environment and
thus the more stable the body functions (homeostasis is ensured).
You will find the log of great value if you need to switch from one computer to another
between treatment sessions. Before you begin using the treatment, please ensure that your
computer has the minimum specification set out later in this manual.
If you are alone at home, consider putting a sign outside your front door saying
Do not disturb or be prepared to ignore anyone who calls.
By all means have a soft drink or a hot drink but do not drink alcohol in the 24 hours before
or during a treatment. Do not undergo treatment if you are tired, under the influence of
alcohol or any drugs or medicines that cause drowsiness, sleepiness, or any form of
hallucination.
Ambience
The room should be dimmed and quiet. Soft, calming music played at low volume is ideal.
But any music will be of benefit if it helps you to watch the computer screen.
Seating position
Sit directly in front of the computer screen as you would for normal computer use (as
recommended in your computer user documentation). Look at the screen throughout each
session. Try to avoid looking away from the computer for any length of time. You can
glance slightly to the side, top or bottom of the computer it is not strictly necessary to
stare continually into the screen.
Frequency
You must undergo a treatment session at least once every 24 hours (if not recommended
otherwise). If you miss a session for any reason any day, run the session as soon as possible
after it has been missed and then return to your 24-hour cycle. If you miss the treatment for
any more than seven days running, then please call the practitioner who provided your
treatment disc for advice. If you miss the treatment for several days, and you then re-start
the treatment for up to five sessions, and then find that you miss the treatment for any more
than 48 hours, please call the practitioner who provided your treatment disc for advice. It is
possible to catch up by running a session in the morning and one in the afternoon. You
should leave at least 2 hours between each session as a minimum (if not recommended
otherwise).
THE BEST RESULTS WILL BE OBTAINED IF THE FULL TREATMENT IS
CARRIED OUT ON A CONSISTENT BASIS ONCE OR TWICE EVERY 24 HOURS.
Duration of the Therapy Sessions
Sessions are of varying length from 15 to 35 minutes, typically 20 minutes. The full course
of treatment is broken down into a number of modules. The various modules applicable to
your treatment are shown in the right hand box/column of the 'Correction Module' front
screen. Each module comprises a number of treatment sessions. To find out how many
sessions are included in your full treatment, highlight each module in turn on the right hand
screen. As you move into a new module, the box at the bottom left of the 'Correction
Module' front screen will tell you how many sessions are included in that module. The
colours and/or the colour sequence appearing in each module might be different however
the sessions within a particular module are usually similar in content, and of the same
length. The only way you can find out how long each session will take is to undergo the
first session in each module and check the time yourself. It is not possible to skip modules.
Sessions can be skipped by pressing the esc key as soon as they have started, or by simply
not watching the screen. This will of course negate the effectiveness of the treatment!
Running a treatment session on your computer
When undertaking the therapy start the treatment module at the brain and complete the
brain module before proceeding to another organ module. Complete each module in turn.
IF YOU START A TREATMENT SESSION WITH ANOTHER PROGRAM RUNNING
WHICH CAUSES A CONFLICT WITH THE TREATMENT, THE TREATMENT
SESSION MAY FREEZE PART WAY THROUGH.
You should see a 'Correction Module' icon on your desktop. Double click this and the
treatment program will load. Follow the screen prompts.
If the system should freeze quit the programme. Pressing the ESC key will work on some
computers. You will be asked if the session should be treated as complete. If you think the
session is almost complete, based on the length of time it was running, click YES. But if
the session is probably 50% or less complete, click NO. You will then be able to re-run the
session.
If you cannot exit by pressing the ESC key, press the CTR-ALT-DEL keys at the same
time. This will enable you to quit the program instead.
If you have quit the treatment using CTR-ALT-DEL, the program will not recognise the
session as complete. As above, if you think the session was almost complete there is no
need to re-run it completely. To advance the session counter, re-start the session, exit
immediately by pressing the ESC key and when asked, should I count the session as
complete click YES.
Before you re-start any session which you have had to end part way through, REMEMBER
to close down any open program which may have caused the treatment session to freeze.
If your treatment session does not load, simply press ctrl-alt-del and when the Close
Program dialogue box appears click end task. This should restore your desktop. Double
click the treatment icon again this time the program should run perfectly.
What if a session is missed?
If you simply do not run a session in any particular day, run it as soon as possible
afterwards see above. If you start a session and have to move away from the computer but
you let the session run its course, you cannot return to it and you have therefore missed a
session. This will reduce the benefits of the treatment program. Thus if you do have to
move away from the computer, press the ESC key to escape the session without letting it
run its course. See above.
Is it possible to exit a treatment module once it starts running?
Yes by pressing the ESC key (see above) however, this is not recommended. You should
try to start a session at a time when you have every chance of completing it.
If black lines appear between colour flashes on your monitor
The reason for this may be due to the computers ability to display the required brightness
of colour, which in turn depends on the capability of its Graphics card. This line actually is
the part of the screen, which is not filled with colour fast enough. In other words the dose
you are receiving is a little bit less than necessary. This is not significant the percentage
of dose reduction, even on computers with a very slow Graphics card is no more than 0.5%.
Your Treatment Log
On your treatment disc or flash drive you will find a treatment log upon which you should
record details of all sessions as you complete them. Alternatively if a treatment log has not
been provided you should keep your own log of therapy sessions in which you detail any
notable occurrences and/or changes to your health.
You may wish to print out this log and keep a manual version. Please ensure that at least
one of these logs is kept up to date. Bring the completed log with you every time you visit
the clinic. This is important to us. If you have not improved as a result of your treatment we
will want to honour our commitment under our guarantee. And we will also want to try to
find out why you have not found any benefit from our system. We need to be sure that the
treatment has been undertaken fully and properly. The following processes help us to
ensure that the treatments have been properly run:
Some treatment programs carry a numerical code, which appears on screen for
about 3 seconds at the end of sessions during the whole course of treatment. If you
see this number in any of your sessions, follow the screen prompts. You will not be
able to leave the program until you have worked through the prompts.
The computer automatically writes back to the treatment file the date when each
session is fully run.
If a log sheet is not provided, please keep a note of each treatment session: date, time and
anything interesting.
When the treatment is complete
Please contact the Strannik practitioner to arrange the follow assessment to check your
condition. When you visit the clinic please ensure that you bring your treatment log with
you for our records (unless you have forwarded this to us already by e-mail).
(ii)
whether the selected therapy is significantly greater than 100% which could indicate
abnormal brain function;
(iii)
whether the results look normal e.g. (a) if there was an organ with a sequence of
pathological results which give zero indication, (b) whether there was an organ or
sequence of organs in which the results reported only blue/genotype signals, (c)
whether the patient is exhibiting signs of cognitive dysfunction. In the latter case it
may be useful not to rely upon the results obtained but to give the patient Strannik
Light Therapy and invite them to be retested in several weeks.
Contra-indications
It is advised that Strannik Light Therapy should not be used concurrently with other
complementary therapies, in particular techniques which are based upon stimulating
function of the acupuncture meridians. This includes acupuncture, electroacupuncture (the
Voll system), photopuncture, etc. Different complementary therapies have different modes
of action which do not necessarily have a complementary function. Some are based upon
the feed-forward of information from the brain to the organs whilst others are based upon a
feed-back mechanism which involves the flow of information from the periphery to the
brain. Accordingly, it is recommended that practitioners remain vigilant of such
possibilities and that they record and/or report significant side-effects to their local health
authorities.
7.
Conclusions
Apart from the various conclusions which have been reported in MMHL bibliography (see
appendix 1), this programme of research enables the practitioner to make a number of
scientifically significant conclusions e.g.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
The subconscious mind accumulates and stores information on cells, tissues, internals
and systems represented in the form of matrices (image signals).
This information always reflects both problems of the specific organ and its
connections with other organs, tissues, systems, organism, internal and external
environment.
The subconscious mind always has information on any changes in the body
represented in different relations of matrices.
The subconscious mind controls the functions of the human body bringing its organs,
systems and tissues in line with the available information.
The Strannik system allows to obtain information at any level of subconscious
function, change this information and to exercise positive impact on the state of
organs, systems, tissues and organism.
6.
User-friendly and absolutely safe Strannik Virtual Scanning system always takes into
account the superfine individual peculiarities of each patient.
8.
Regulatory Status
Strannik is a cutting-edge, non-invasive, cognitive technology which is based upon an
unprecedented level of understanding of the relationship between sensory input, brain
function and the autonomic nervous system. It is designed for quick, extended and accurate
assessment of the state of the unconscious mind thus providing new and effective
therapeutic opportunities with unprecedented selective intervention.
This technology was approved by USSR Academy of Medical Sciences. The Strannik
technology (called abroad "Strannik Virtual Scanner Software") is based upon law of
biologic response to the wave impact (Proceedings of the meeting of the Presidium of
Siberian Department of USSR Academy of Medical Sciences (Minutes No. 11 dated
December 04, 1985)).
This technology was approved by the RF Ministry of Health. Strannik meets all medical
parameters and requirements of the specifications (Minutes No. 27-11/02-6, expert check
of software and data bases of the RF Ministry of Health). Strannik was ranked No.1 health-
Accordingly, MMHL advise any medical practitioners who wish to introduce SVS into
their practice that they should independently ascertain the regulatory requirements for this
technology in their markets i.e. before placing the technology on the market.
Nevertheless Strannik Light Therapy remains subject to the provisions of the Medical
Devices Directive i.e. as a type 2a Device. It may not be placed on the market until a
technical dossier has been compiled which includes the results of clinical studies however
this does not preclude the demonstration of the technology, gathering data, and/or
undertaking proof of concept studies and clinical studies.

9.
Paying for Tests
The flash-drive has been organized to allow the practitioner to purchase a monthly
allocation of tests or alternatively a set number of tests which must be used within a
specific period of time.
Contact MMHL if you wish to place a longer contract e.g. to cover 3 months, 6 months or
12 months. This will enable you to receive lower test costs.
The current payment schedule is as follows:
10 tests: 295
20 tests: 395
30 tests: 495
>30 tests:
(29.50/test)
(19.75/test)
(16.50/test)
15.00/test
For large-volume end-users, and to discuss volume discounts, please contact Graham
Ewing.
Payment to: HSBC Bank, 1 Leeming Street, Mansfield, Nottinghamshire
Bank Sort Code: 40-32-01 Bank Account No: ..
You will be issued with a payment form before the expiry of your key to enable you to
order your tests for the next calendar period/number of tests. Please place orders at least
one week before expiry of your flash-drive to enable MMHL to organize the smooth
transition from one period to the next.
Please note that MMHL plans to issue a revised version of the Strannik program which will
enable the practitioner to pay on-line. This will be issued and sent to you free of charge. If
you do not make the payment your key will be disconnected.
Please contact Kim Wallis if you are experiencing any difficulties.

Psychological Diagnostics Vocabulary
Perception (Information Reception) is a mental cognitive process implying the integral
reflection of objects, subjects and events having a direct effect on individual's sense organs
in individual's mind, but not the sensation-like partial reflection.
Imagination (Information Processing) is a mental cognitive process resulting in creation
of new images and ideas, programming of situations and possible scenarios basing upon
individual's ideas, knowledge and experience or sometimes without the required knowledge
in this field.
Memory (Image Formation) is a mental cognitive process involving memorization,
storage and further retrieval of what the individual did, felt or perceived in the conscious
mind or during any activity.
Decision Making (Image Use) is a system of interconnected reflex and conscious
(physical and mental) actions representing the capability to make own responsible decisions
and act in an active and purposeful way in order to implement these decisions in different
situations.
information on the actual state of affairs. The genuine understanding of dishonesty motives
and causes is required for evaluating its specific manifestations.
Vengefulness (Rancour) are emotional actions or thoughts manifested in hostility or
negative feelings against others.
Strive for Power
Over-estimation (Greed) is a social and biological induced trait of the personality which
preconfigures the behavior in social and natural environment.
Vulgarity is a quality of the personality resulted in negative self-perception; ability to
make a negative impression by the appearance, manners and behavior.
Aggressivity (Spite) is a process, aggressive state of the personality emerging as a
response to any impact.
Gluttony is a normal or excess physiological and psychological need in food.
Realisation (Prodigality) is an inadequate estimation of personality's capabilities
mismatching the objective condition of the individual.
Racial Prejudices (acquired uncritically without a moment's thought) are attitudes
manifested in the form of superstition and prejudice hindering adequate perception of any
nationality.
Indecency is a social and biological induced quality of the personality. Sexual perversions
existing under conditions hindering satisfaction of the sexual needs shall be transferred,
transformed or sublimated to other types of energy (sports, active professional activity,
etc.).
Pride is a concept of the individual him/herself and his/her qualities associated with a high
estimate thereof.
Bravery (Courage) is a quality of the personality manifested in fearlessness and
hyperactivity in dangerous situations; ability to jeopardize life to achieve the goal.

Description: human body contains 6-8% by weight of blood (4-6 litres). The quantity
of blood in the organism is a quite stable and precisely regulated characteristic. The
higher the metabolic rate the higher the organisms requirement for oxygen and the
greater the volume of blood. Normally, not all blood circulates through vessels
continuously - part of it is retained within reserves in the liver (circa 20%), spleen(circa
16%), skin (circa 10%). The volume of blood is closely connected to the level of blood
pressure and the level of the osmotic pressure in the organism

Description: Osmotic pressure has one of the leading roles amongst varying
characteristics of internal medium. Osmotic pressure is one of comparatively rigid
constants of the bodys internal medium. Ability of the body to keep the osmotic
pressure provides the normal flow of metabolic processes in tissues. Osmotic pressure
always stays on a relatively stable optimal metabolic level which for mammals is
7.3atm.

Description: Carbohydrates play a leading role in energy exchange. The activity of all
organs depends upon the content of the carbohydrates in the blood which is supplied.
The daily norm of carbohydrates depends upon the physical activity of the organism.
The average norm is 500 gm/day. The lack of incoming carbohydrates can be
substituted by fatty acids. Local reserves of carbohydrates are different in different
tissues. The speed of metabolic processes in organs and their functions are determined
by the concentration of glucose in blood.

Description: Metabolic processes can take place on the optimal levels only if there is
optimal blood pressure in the capillaries of tissues. This characteristic is flexible and is
the result of constant adjustment of the body to changing conditions of the environment.
It changes when there is a need of redistribution of liquid, salts, nutrients. It is important
that this characteristic returns to the starting levels and is supported within certain
physiological boundaries.

Description: Exchange of gases between the atmosphere and cells is called breathing.
Body activity is accompanied by constant consumption of oxygen and production of
carbon dioxide in tissues. During inhalation atmospheric air fills up lungs. The blood
supplied to lungs saturates with oxygen and surplus carbon dioxide is removed with
exhaled air. Refreshment of air in lungs allows the organism to sustain breathing
homeostasis relatively constant gas consumption in blood and tissues on an optimal
level. Stabilisation of oxygen carbon dioxide balance in the body and refill of gas
requirement is the main task.

Appendix 5: Definitions
The following background, definitions and/or text are included to assist the practitioner to
better understand the terminology used in
Hayflick Limit Theory
In 1962 two cell biologists, Dr. Hayflick and Dr. Moorehead, made one of the greatest
contributions to the history of cellular biology by demonstrating the senescence of
cultured human cells. Hayflick theorized that the aging process was controlled by a
biological clock contained within each living cell. The 1961 studies concluded that
human fibroblast cells (lung, skin, muscle, heart) have a limited life span. They divided
approximately 50 times over a period of years and then suddenly stopped. Nutrition
seemed to have an effect on the rate of cell division: overfed cells made up to 50
divisions in a year, while underfed cells took up to three times as long as normal cells to
make divisions. Alterations and degenerations occurred within some cells before they
reached their growth limit. The most evident changes took place in the cell organelles,
membranes and genetic material. This improper functioning of cells and loss of cells in
organs and tissues may be responsible for the effects of aging.
Limited Number of Cell Divisions Theory
The number of cell divisions id directly affected by the accumulations of the cell's waste
products. The more wastes we are accumulate over time the faster cells degenerate.
Although an ordinary chicken does not live anywhere near 20 years, French surgeon Dr.
Alexis Carrel was able to keep pieces of a chicken heart alive in a saline solution which
contained minerals in the same proportion as chicken blood for 28 years. He believed
that he had achieved this by disposing off the waste products daily. Although Carrel's
theory was eventually overturned by Dr. Leonard Hayflick when it was found that fresh
cells had been inadvertently added to the cultures making the chicken cells seem
"immortal," the experiment helped explain why cells from older people with more waste
divided fewer times than cells from embryos which divided the most.
Waste Accumulation Theory
In the course of their life spans cells produce more waste than they can properly
eliminate. This waste can include various toxins which when accumulated to a certain
level, can interfere with normal cell function, ultimately killing the cell.
Evidence supporting this theory is the presence of a waste product called lipofuscin
leading to age pigment. The cells most commonly found to contain lipofuscin are nerve
and heart muscle cells, both critical to life. Lipofuscin is formed by a complex reaction
that binds fat in the cells to proteins. This waste accumulates in the cells as small
granules and increases in size as a person ages. Because lipofuscin builds up over time,
it has been described as "the ashes of our dwindling metabolic fires"
The Free Radical Theory
This exciting development in anti-aging research was first introduced by R. Gerschman
in 1954, but was developed by Dr. Denham Harman of the University of Nebraska,
College of Medicine. "Free radical" is a term used to describe any molecule that differs
from conventional molecules in that it possesses a free electron, a property that makes
it react with other molecules in highly volatile and destructive ways.
In a conventional molecule the electrical charge is balanced. Electrons come in pairs so
that their electrical energies cancel each other out. Atoms that are missing electrons
combine with atoms that have extra electrons, creating a stable molecule with evenly
paired electrons and a neutral electrical charge.
The free radical on the other hand has an extra negative charge. This unbalanced
electrical energy tends to make the free radical attach itself to other molecules as it tries
to steal a matching electron to attain electrical equilibrium. Some scientist speak of
these free radicals as "promiscuous," breaking up the happy marriages of paired
electrons in neighboring molecules in order to steal an electron "partner" for
themselves. In doing so they create free radicals and extensive bodily damage.
Free-radical activity within the body is not only or even primarily negative. Without
free-radical activity, that is without biochemical electricity, we would not be able to
produce energy, maintain immunity, transmit nerve impulses, synthesize hormones or
even contract our muscles. The body's electricity enables us to perform these functions
and that electricity comes from the unbalanced electron activity of free radicals.
But free radicals also attack the structure of our cell membranes, creating metabolic
waste products, including substances known as lipofuscins. An excess of lipofuscins in
the body is shown as a darkening of the skin in certain areas, so-called "aging spots."
Lipofuscins in turn interfere with the cells ability to repair and reproduce themselves.
They disturb DNA and RNA synthesis, interfere with synthesis of protein, lower our
energy levels, prevent the body from building muscle mass and destroy cellular
enzymes, which are needed for vital chemical processes.
This type of free-radical damage begins at birth and continue until we die. In our youth
its effects are relatively minor since the body has extensive repair and replacement
mechanisms that in healthy young people function to keep cells and organs in working
order. With age however the accumulated effects of free-radical damage begin to take
their toll. Free-radical disruption of cell metabolism is part of what ages our cells; it
may also create mutant cells leading ultimately to cancer and death.
Free radicals attack collagen and elastin, the substances that keep our skin moist,
smooth, flexible and elastic. These vital tissues fray and break under the assaults of free
radicals, a process particularly noticeable in the face, where folds of skin and deep-cut
wrinkles are testaments to the long-term effect of free-radical damage.
Another way of looking at free-radical changes is to think of its as oxidation, the
process of adding oxygen to a substance. Another word for oxidation is rust and in a
sense our aging process is analogous to the rusting away of a once-intact piece of
metal. Because forms of oxygen itself are free radicals, our very breathing and our
otherwise healthy aerobic exercise generate free radicals that help along the aging
process.
Substances that prevent the harmful effects of oxidation are known as antioxidants.
Natural antioxidants include vitamin C, vitamin E and beta carotene, the substance that
our body uses to produce vitamin A. Specialists in anti-aging medicine prescribe a host
of natural and manufactured antioxidants to help combat the effects of aging.
Another substance that combats free-radical damage is known as a free-radical
scavenger. Free-radical scavengers actually seek out free radicals and harmlessly bind
them before they can attach themselves to other molecules and/or cause cross-linking.
As we'll see in subsequent chapters many vitamins and minerals and other substances
fight aging by acting as free-radical scavengers.
The Genetic Control Theory
This planned-obsolescence theory focuses on the genetic programming encoded
within our DNA. We are born with a unique genetic code, a predetermined tendency
to certain types of physical and mental functioning, and that genetic inheritance has a
great deal to say about how quickly we age and how long we live. To use a macabre
analogy it's as though each of us comes into the world as a machine that is
preprogrammed to self-destruct. Each of us has a biological clock ticking away set to
go off at a particular time, give or take a few years. When that clock goes off it signals
our bodies first to age and then to die.
However, as with all aspects of our genetic inheritance the timing on this genetic
clock is subject to enormous variation, depending on what happens to us as we grow
up and on how we actually live (the old "nature versus nurture" debate).
Anti-aging medicine addresses this issue by augmenting the basic building blocks of
DNA within each of our cells, preventing damage to and increasing repair of DNA. In
this way we believe anti-aging treatment can help us escape our genetic destinies, at
least to some extent.
The Neuroendocrine Theory
This theory developed by Vladimir Dilman, Ph.D., elaborates on the wear and tear
theory by focusing on the neuroendocrine system, the complicated network of
biochemicals that governs the release of our hormones and other vital bodily elements.
When we are young, our hormones work together to regulate many bodily functions,
including our responses to heat and cold, our life experiences and our sexual activity.
Different organs release various hormones all under the governance of the
hypothalamus, a walnut-sized gland located within the brain.
The hypothalamus sets off various chain reactions whereby an organ releases a
hormone which in turn stimulates the release of another hormone, which in turn
stimulates yet another bodily response. The hypothalamus responds to the body's
hormone levels as its guide to regulating hormonal activity.
When we're young hormone levels tend to be high, accounting for among other things,
menstruation in women and high libido in both sexes. As we age the body produces
lower levels of hormones which can have disastrous effects on our functioning. The
growth hormones that help us form muscle mass, hGH, testosterone and thyroid, for
example, drop dramatically as we age so that even if an elderly person has not gained
weight, he or she has undoubtedly increased the ratio of fat-to-muscle.
Hormones are vital for repairing and regulating our bodily functions, and when aging
causes a drop in hormone production, it causes a decline in our body's ability to repair
and regulate itself as well. Moreover hormone production is highly interactive. The
drop in production of any one hormone is likely to have a feedback effect on the
whole mechanism, signaling other organs to release lower levels of other hormones
which will cause other body parts to release lower levels of yet other hormones. Thus
hormone replacement therapy, a frequent component of any anti-aging treatment,
helps to reset the body's hormonal clock and so can reverse or delay the effects of
aging. If our hormones are being produced at youthful levels in a very real sense the
cells of our bodies are stimulated to be metabolically active and thus we stay young.
The "Wear and Tear" Theory
Dr. August Weismann, a German biologist, first introduced this theory in 1882. He
believed that the body and its cells were damaged by overuse and abuse. The organs,
liver, stomach, kidneys, skin and so on are worn down by toxins in our diet and in the
environment; by the excessive consumption of fat, sugar, caffeine, alcohol and
nicotine; by the ultra-violet rays of the sun and by the many other physical and
emotional stresses to which we subject our bodies. Wear and tear is not confined to our
organs, however; it also takes place on the cellular level.
Of course even if you've never touched a cigarette or had a glass of wine, stayed out of
the sun and eaten only natural foods, simply using the organs that nature endowed you
is going to wear them out. Abuse will only wear them out more quickly. Likewise as
the body ages our very cells feel the effect, no matter how healthy our life style.
When we are young the body's own maintenance and repair systems keep
compensating for the effects of both normal and excessive wear and tear. (That's why
young people can more easily get away with a night of heavy drinking or a binge of
pizza or sweets.) With age the body loses its ability to repair damage caused by diet,
environmental toxins, bacteria or a virus. Thus many elderly people die of diseases that
they could have resisted when they were younger.
By the same token nutritional supplements and other treatments covered in this book
can help reverse the aging process by stimulating the body's own ability to repair and
maintain its organs and cells.

Appendix 7:
Advisory Notes to be provided to the Patient
Precautions
This course of Strannik Light Therapy is specifically designed for your own medical condition. UNDER
NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANYONE ELSE USE YOUR COURSE OF TREATMENT. Do not
allow anyone else to sit in the same room as you in a position where he or she is aware of the flashing
colours whilst you undergo each treatment session. Do not allow anyone to sit in front of your computer
during any part, however small, of any treatment session.
Do not reload the treatment disc onto another computer and re-commence the treatment from the
beginning. If for any reason you need to transfer the treatment to a different computer, see our
instructions.
Please ensure that you keep a record of your treatment i.e. date and me of the therapy session and
anything which you feel is useful to record. We are unable to verify the completeness of your treatment if
the log is incomplete. You may find this log to be of value if you need to switch from one computer to
another between treatment sessions.
Contra-indications.
Please do not undertake any other forms of therapy during this course of therapy. We specifically advise
to avoid any forms of treatment involving acupuncture (including TENS type devices) or any other forms
of treatment involving stimulation of the acupuncture meridians.
What you can Expect/Symptoms
In some cases some patients may feel slightly worse after the first few sessions in one or more modules.
This is normal, and will pass after two or three more sessions. Do not stop your treatment. The initial
modules of the treatment course are of vital importance but may not produce any noticeable effect on
your condition. Do not let this put you off the treatment is a carefully programmed course running for
several weeks or months and you should not expect to feel any different after the initial modules. Please
persist with the treatment.
Contact: If you have any concerns about any aspect of your treatment, please do not hesitate to contact
your practitioner.
Undergoing Treatment
Preparation
Once a session starts, it SHOULD NOT BE INTERRUPTED. It is therefore important that you prepare
yourself properly before commencing. Ensure that you are not likely to be disturbed or called away from
the computer e.g.
*
If you are alone at home, consider putting a sign outside your front door saying Do not disturb
or be prepared to ignore anyone who calls.
By all means have a soft drink or a hot drink but do not drink alcohol in the 12 hours before or during a
treatment. Do not undergo treatment if you are tired, under the influence of alcohol or any drugs or
medicines that cause drowsiness, sleepiness, or any form of hallucination.
Ambience
The room should be dimmed and quiet. Soft, calming music played at low volume is ideal. But any music
will be of benefit if it helps you to watch the computer screen.
Seating position
Sit directly in front of the computer screen as you would for normal computer use (as recommended in
your computer user documentation). Look at the screen throughout each session. Try to avoid looking
away from the computer for any length of time. You can glance slightly to the side, top or bottom of the
computer it is not strictly necessary to stare continually into the screen.
Frequency
You must undergo a treatment session at least once every 24 hours (if not recommended otherwise), and
preferably twice per day (once in the morning and once in the early evening). If you miss a session for
any reason any day, run the session as soon as possible after it has been missed and then return to your
24-hour cycle. If you miss the treatment for any more than seven days running, then please call your
practitioner who provided your treatment for advice. If you miss the treatment for several days, and you
then re-start the treatment for up to five sessions, and then find that you miss the treatment for any more
than 48 hours, please call the practitioner who provided your treatment disc for advice. It is possible to
catch up by running a session in the morning and one in the afternoon. You should leave at least 2 hours
between each session as a minimum (if not recommended otherwise).
THE BEST RESULTS WILL BE OBTAINED IF THE FULL TREATMENT IS CARRIED OUT ON A
CONSISTENT BASIS ONCE OR TWICE EVERY 24 HOURS.
Duration of the Therapy Sessions
Sessions are of varying length from 15 to 35 minutes, typically 20 minutes. The full course of treatment is
broken down into a number of modules. The various modules applicable to your treatment are shown in
the right hand box/column of the 'Correction Module' front screen. Each module comprises a number of
treatment sessions.
The colours and/or the colour sequence appearing in each module might be different however the sessions
within a particular module are usually similar in content, and of the same length. The only way you can
find out how long each session will take is to undergo the first session in each module and check the time
yourself. It is not possible to skip modules. Sessions can be skipped by pressing the esc key as soon as
they have started, or by simply not watching the screen. This will of course negate the effectiveness of the
treatment!
Running a treatment session on your computer
When undertaking the therapy start the treatment module at the brain and complete the brain module
before proceeding to another organ module. Complete each module in turn.
You should see a 'Correction Module' icon on your desktop. Double click this and the treatment program
will load. Follow the screen prompts.
If the system should freeze quit the programme. Pressing the ESC key will work on some computers. You
will be asked if the session should be treated as complete. If you think the session is almost complete,
based on the length of time it was running, click YES. But if the session is probably 50% or less
complete, click NO. You will then be able to re-run the session.
If you cannot exit by pressing the ESC key, press the CTR-ALT-DEL keys at the same time. This will
enable you to quit the program instead.
If you have quit the treatment using CTR-ALT-DEL, the program will not recognise the session as
complete. As above, if you think the session was almost complete there is no need to re-run it completely.
To advance the session counter, re-start the session, exit immediately by pressing the ESC key and when
asked, should I count the session as complete click YES.
Before you re-start any session which you have had to end part way through, REMEMBER to close down
any open program which may have caused the treatment session to freeze.
If your treatment session does not load, simply press ctrl-alt-del and when the Close Program dialogue
box appears click end task. This should restore your desktop. Double click the treatment icon again
this time the program should run perfectly.
What if a session is missed?
If you simply do not run a session in any particular day, run it as soon as possible afterwards see above.
If you start a session and have to move away from the computer but you let the session run its course, you
cannot return to it and you have therefore missed a session. This will reduce the benefits of the treatment
program. Thus if you do have to move away from the computer, press the ESC key to escape the session
without letting it run its course. See above.
Is it possible to exit a treatment module once it starts running?
Yes by pressing the ESC key (see above) however, this is not recommended. You should try to start a
session at a time when you have every chance of completing it.
If black lines appear between colour flashes on your monitor
The reason for this may be due to the computers ability to display the required brightness of colour,
which in turn depends on the capability of its Graphics card. This line actually is the part of the screen,
which is not filled with colour fast enough. In other words the dose you are receiving is a little bit less
than necessary. This is not significant the percentage of dose reduction, even on computers with a very
slow Graphics card is no more than 0.5%.
Your Treatment Log
On your treatment disc you will find a treatment log upon which you should record details of all sessions
as you complete them. You may wish to print out this log and keep a manual version. Please ensure that
at least one of these logs is kept up to date. Bring the completed log with you every time you visit the
clinic. This is important to us. If you have not improved as a result of your treatment we will want to
honour our commitment under our guarantee. And we will also want to try to find out why you have not
found any benefit from our system. We need to be sure that the treatment has been undertaken fully and
properly. The following processes help us to ensure that the treatments have been properly run:
* Some treatment programs carry a numerical code, which appears on screen for about 3 seconds at
the end of sessions during the whole course of treatment. If you see this number in any of your
sessions, follow the screen prompts. You will not be able to leave the program until you have
worked through the prompts.
* The computer automatically writes back to the treatment file the date when each session is fully
run.
If a log sheet is not provided, please keep a note of each treatment session: date, time and anything
interesting.
When the treatment is complete
Please contact the Strannik practitioner to arrange the follow assessment to check your condition. When
you visit the clinic please ensure that you bring your treatment log with you for our records (unless you
have forwarded this to us already by e-mail).
