daylia-I'm not saying that it's ineffective. I'm saying that no credible theories as to WHY it is effective, when it is, exist. It's all very well and good to say that it works, but until we know why, you can't call it science. The "energy fields" constantly referred to have not been shown to exist, unless they mean the electric field produced as a byproduct of the nervous system. Any physicist can show you that the interaction between two bioelectric fields is not strong enough, or controllable enough, to have the effects purported.
