NEW ENERGY ENHANCING TECHNOLOGY

 

We're all accustomed to thinking that we have to put something into our body (like vitamins) to improve our health. While proper nutrition, water and exercise are a necessary part of any healthy lifestyle, our bodies also require a continuous flow of energy. For example, our brains and nerves transmit electrical signals to our muscles to cause them to use stored chemical energy to contract.

It's been known for thousands of years that specific frequencies of light can cause specific changes within the human body. When we go out in the Sun, a frequency of light causes our body to make vitamin D. Another frequency of light (UV) will cause our body to make melanin, the chemical that gives us a Sun tan.

Energy Enhancer patches use this knowledge to stimulate acupuncture points on the body for improving the flow of energy and producing drug-free energy enhancement within minutes of use.

WHAT IS ACUPUNCTURE?

Acupuncture is a type of Oriental healing art based on ancient Eastern medicine. A practitioner will typically stimulate acupuncture points on the body with needles or pressure to improve sleep, relieve pain and discomfort, and promote good health.

The self-adhesive Energy Enhancer patches utilize the principles of Oriental medicine and needleless acupuncture to gently stimulate points on the body that have been used to balance and improve the flow of energy in the human body for thousands of years. The result is a natural way of improving the quality of your life without any drugs, stimulants or needles entering the body.

Chicago Bears - Femi Ayanbadejo

Hello. My name is Obafemi Ayanbadejo. I have had the pleasure of actually being coached by Greg Smith and he introduced Lifewave to my brother Brendon and myself.

For those of you that are not familiar with me, I graduated from Santa Cuz High in 1992. I also attended Cabrillo College for three semesters and received a scholarship to San Diego State University, where I lettered in football. I also received a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I have spent the last eleven years in the NFL, and have played for the Minnesota Vikings, Baltimore Ravens, Miami Dolphins, Arizona Cardinals and Chicago Bears. While playing in Baltimore for three years, I was a member of the 2000 Super Championship Team. I consider it my second greatest team achievement. My No. 1 team achievement was the SCCAL Basketball Championship Team I was member of in 1991!!!!

As some of you know, I failed an NFL drug test in January while a member of the Arizona Cardinals. This has all but kept me out of the League this year, however, I plan to make a strong comeback in 2008. I want you all to know I have never cheated the integrity of honest competition. I had taken a supplement for three weeks with a banned substance in it. This banned substance was deliberately put into the bottle by the supplement company. It was also deliberately unmentioned in the supplement’s ingredient list. I have a pending lawsuit against the ALRI supplementation company based out of Colorado. Prior to this incident, I had never failed a drug test at any level. Those are the facts. USA Today recently published information from an independent lab that found 25% of over 60 supplements tested had a banned substance in it. These substances were found to be anabolic steroids, which contained ephedrine as well.

Many high school athletes, as well as many adults, use supplements to assist in their training. Some of these people are being subjected to these drugs that can cause long term damage down the road. It is even safe to say that there are kids and adults in your community using steroids, HGH or other illegal substances. I would like to help everyone have an alternative to knowingly or unknowingly subjecting their bodies to something that will ultimately cause more harm than good. Ever since my failed drug test, I no longer use supplements, and only use David Schmidt’s LifeWave products. Rest and an organic diet also enhance the affects.

We recently got a terrific exercise tool - a doorway-mounted pull-up/chin-up bar. It was very humbling. I had forgotten how hard these are to do. With my hands spread out to the outer grips, I couldn't even do one! So, I moved my hands towards each other so my arms were straight in front of me and parallel to each other. Then, I could do 2. Over the next two weeks, I got stronger and by last Friday I could do 7. I took Sat,. Sun., Tues., Thurs. off to allow my muscles to rebuild.

Yesterday, Monday, I decided to do an experiment. I temporarily put the energy patches on my ankles (kidney 3 - my best spot) and went to the exercise bar. I was able to do 11 this morning and 9 this afternoon. That is a big jump from one session to another.

Felicia is struggling to do just one. She get some, but not all, of her weight off her feet but can't yet get her whole body "off the ground." She tried the patches today on her knees (stomach 36 - her best spot) and was able to go much higher than on Friday.

The patches really work! Stay tuned, especially when we start on the new SP6 patches.

BTW, we determine our best patch positions with a special form of muscle testing, related to, but different from, applied kinesiology.

Best regards,

- Lew B., Arroyo Grande, CA

I have been looking for a product that would naturally improve my clients endurance and stamina. The LifeWave energy patch does just that I have been totally impress with the results.

Several weeks ago I was at a martial arts events and started experiencing swelling in my feet, and a tingling feeling up my legs, right side of my body and into my face. I had planned on leaving the event early and going to the emergency room. John Chance (LifeWave Rep) place 4 of the IceWave Patches on me, only in a matter on minutes I was getting relief. 30 minutes later the swelling and tingling was gone. 4 hours later I left the tournament drove for 2 hour, arrived home and was feeling great. Uncertain, of what caused the problem, I went to the Duke Medical Center emergency room. I was there for another 4 hour, they found nothing wrong.

I am a 4th year ostreopathic student at the Canadian College of Osteopathy, Vancouver BC Branch.  Oakville, which I take to be near Hamilton, is the home to another osteopathic college, the Sutherland Academy.

I am 60 yrs this fall and subject to what I take to be age related cognitive dysfunction.  The LifeWave Energy Patches have saved my bacon.

My first  2 years of osteopathic college were dominated by difficult struggle with memory,  In the fall of 2005 I was introduced to and began using LifeWave Energy Patches for increased energy and was delighted to find my cognitive function normal and sharp.

I credit LifeWave Energy Patches with getting me through my 3rd year of studies and with passing the rigorous osteopathic 4th year entrance exam.

Very Truely,

Meet Charles Paden: Personal Trainer

I am a retired NYC Police Officer. For the last 7 years I have worked as a Personal Trainer and Spinning Instructor. (Spinning is a group class on stationary bicycles with music and simulates an outdoors bike race.)

First of all I would like to say that I was a bit skeptical about the LifeWave Energy Enhancer Patches. I have seen many products that made claims to improve stamina and overall health and well being. Honestly most of the juices and pills that I have used in the past did not work on me, nor did they work on anyone I know. What peaked my initial interest was reading about nanotechnology.

My sponsor sent me a weeks supply of the patches and I immediately put them to work. I proceeded to do a strength test, push ups to fatigue without the patches. I completed 30, and at the age of "40 something" and two shoulder surgeries, that's not to bad. I placed the white patch on the inside of my right shoulder and the brown patch on the inside of my left shoulder. After 8 minutes I proceeded to do my second set of push ups. To my astonishment I was able to complete 45. I conducted the test on my wife and she completed 6 without the patches and 12 with the patches.

I am a Spinning Instructor at Elite Health and Fitness Clubs here in NYC. I teach a very intense cardiovascular Spinning Class. Normally after I teach a difficult Endurance Class or Race Day Class I feel the lactic acid build up. Marathon runners call this hitting the wall. The LifeWave Energy Patches has increased my endurance and I no longer feel a depletion of glycogen. And I no longer feel the lactic acid build up which causes muscle fatigue.

I will never teach a Spinning Class again without the LifeWave Energy Patches unless I am working in the Recovery Zone with a heart rate of 50%-65%.

A quick testimonial

Hi Rich!

I did a push-up experiment and a wrist curl experiment with and without the patches. I had an approx. 50% increase in my performance. I put some on my mom before she went off to work today. I have had them on for about an hour. I definitely feel constant energy. Its strange how accustomed we are to temporary energy boosts from quick carbohydrates or sugar or caffeine. Even though I'd read that I wouldn't feel any different, this prior conditioning made me expect a "energy high" similar to that of stimulants. It's almost weird that I feel no different with and without them on, yet I can perform better. Another difference I noticed is that, unlike a stimulant, the energy from the patches doesn't seem to be coming from anywhere. That may sound confusing, it just feels like the energy just is. It's just there. Seemingly from nowhere. A stimulant often makes me feel that the energy is coming from a specific place in my body, and is inconsistent as to what parts of my body the energy is felt. How very cool!

A quick testimonial II

Hey Rich!

I just watched the video below as well as the "Brilliant Compensation" video. Is it corny of me to say I feel incredibly blessed that I am learning this at my age? (20) And that I have this opportunity with Lifewave, I am honestly baffled.

I know having the opportunity for financial freedom and fulfillment in what one is doing right in one's lap can be intimidating. I am a bit intimidated, by the control I'm realizing I have. However, I'm looking forward to it as much as a personal journey as a financial one. Knowing my success is up to me is reassuring in a way. I will be able to face my insecurities and really rise above what is holding me back. I honestly don't think any other business opportunity or "job" or "career" could provide me with that. So many people are not improved or even impacted by what they do for income every day. I can be paid to become a better person! Does it GET any better! I think not!!

Quit Smoking

“I have quit a 27-year habit of a pack-and-a-half a day cigarette addiction. I never thought this would be possible and I feel that the balance obtained by the LifeWave patches made this a success for me. I now exercise 3 times a week for 2 hours by walking my four puppies. Exercise was unobtainable for me these past 15 years …. I now so enjoy the extension of my day due to the extra energy the patches give me. I can read and work on the computer or just enjoy the wonderful life experience we are blessed with here in Colorado. I feel like I am living again!”

No Fatigue

Since I started using the Lifewave patches, I have been UNABLE to fatigue myself during my yoga workouts or my spinning workouts. I just feel like I could go on and on. I can now hold poses that used to set my arms or legs trembling after a minute or so for a much longer time. I have also noticed my breathing is easier and seems to be more efficient. At first I expected to be fatigued the next day after a strenuous yoga class. Now I realize fatigue and soreness are no longer a part of my routine. I will be using these patches for a long time. They are fantastic!

In Health and Light,

Courtney Zablocki Patches Up for 2006!

My name is Courtney Zablocki and I'm a member of the US National Luge Team and 2002 Olympic Team Member.
My chiropractor introduced me to the patches a few weeks ago and although I was skeptical, I gave the patches a shot.

To give you a brief history about my luge career, I've been competing for 13 years and have had several injuries including a bulged disk that hasn't stopped bugging me for four years. When I wore the patches I didn't really feel a difference but, it was the 4th day when I wasn't wearing the patches that I noticed a huge difference. I couldn't believe the change I felt in my body with my improved energy. I was so surprised that I thought it was just a coincidence that I had felt so great. So, I tried the patches for another three days and I was able to tell that the patches gave me more of a boost!

I can do back extensions and yoga moves wearing the patches that I have never been able to do before now!

I will continue to use the patches and I know they will help me make the games in Italy in 2006. I am now a true believer and a distributor.

In The Net Soccer Academy

Soccer Players Benefit From LifeWave Energy Enhancer Kids and parents ask me all the time if I know of any products that will help with performance and increase overall energy. As we all know, there are thousands of products out there making such claims yet how can we be certain those claims are justified? A trusted friend and colleague of mine has recently introduced me to LifeWave energy patches because of my crazy daily schedule and huge involvement with kids playing sports. With over 1,000 kids coming through my various year round soccer training programs, I thought I would try it due to my demanding coaching schedule. Being naturally skeptical as I hear about these types of things all the time, I did my due diligence and testing to find LifeWave as a really effective product to produce greater strength and endurance. Nothing enters my body whatsoever and it is completely natural. I believe it will enable athletes to train better and will help everyday people increase their energy, stamina, and performance in their daily routines. I can honestly say that I felt a noticeable difference at the end of the day with my overall energy level. I also felt good about myself because there were no chemicals entering my body that may cause harm down the road. I was using something that is totally natural that enables me to perform better throughout the day.

Boys and girls, male or female, athlete or mom and dad, ages 12 and up, can use it, as this is truly safe and effective. Again, nothing enters your body and is completely natural

LifeWave Patches Strike A Chord!

The first time I used the Lifewave energy patches was at the gym. A friend of mine was telling me about them and gave me some to try and so I did the very next day. I totally felt the increase in stamina through my workout routine, and the rest of my day, but the big surprise for me was when I got up the next morning.. at 6a.m. ready to go! I was amazed. I am a self employed musician.

Being self employed usually means you've got more work than you can hope to get done. Ever joke about having a clone of yourself to take over when you got tired. I suggest you try this Lifewave energy patch! I'm currently working hard to promote my new cd simulator and need all the energy I can get. The Lifewave patch couldn't have come into my life at a better time. I hope that you get to experience the difference it can make.

LifeWave: "... my search for that missing energy was over"

I have been weight lifting and wrestling for a number of years. I participate in the Empire State Games 187 lb division in wrestling and have won 22 medals, 10 of them gold. I know I am physically in great shape and continue to do all the right things to stay that way. I eat right, drink lots of water and workout faithfully. Up until I was introduced to the Energy Patches the only thing I couldn't do was find the energy after my lifting workouts to do other things including running or wrestling. Usually I was more interested in a good shower and rest.

I knew during and after my first workout with the patches that my search for that missing energy was over. I have consistently gained in every workout and after my workouts I workout some more.

I highly recommend that if you're introduced to this technology and amazing product that you try them before you make a decision. You have nothing to lose and the gain will surprise you.

Chuck Potter - from skepticism to believing!

My name is Chuck Potter and I am 62 yrs. young. Over the last winter I have gained quite a bit of weight, (went from 36 to 40 waist) and I was tired all the time. When I mowed my yard, here is how it went. Mow the front, take a break. Mow the side, take a break. Mow the other side, take a break. Mow the back, take a break and go lay down. The first time I put the patches on, (on the shoulder area) I mowed all four sides, did the weed eating, tilled my garden and cleaned out my garage. All of this with only a drink of water periodically. After I was done, I didn't take a nap either. I was very skeptical when a friend told me about the patches. Now, I am a believer and I am telling everyone I know about how to get extra energy, strength and stamina. Thank You Lifewave!

A Non-Believer Discovers the LifeWave Edge!

First let me begin by saying that I tried this product completely not believing in it.

WOW! I have never felt more alive and full of energy. I�ve been trying to figure out what it is. I have been taking Yoga twice a week since the beginning of the year, but as a professional instructor and promoter of fitness I know that the Yoga is doing other things for me. This product is amazing. My workouts and training have never been better. Even members who take my classes have notice a "new" energy in me. My endurance levels have sky rocketed and my focus is stronger. But even for a type "A" personality like me, I am truly amazed with this product and what it has done for me in such a short period of time.

One thing that really changed is that I use to take a "power" nap (1 hour) every afternoon. Since trying the product I haven't taken one nap. Very interesting considering I tried but had way too much energy to even shut my eyes.

Thank you Gene for introducing me to this amazing product. I look forward to more information about how I can get involved and spread the word of Lifewave.

The patches helped me make a difference for someone affected by HIV-AIDS.

In early June I cycled 585 miles from San Francisco to Los Angeles for the California Aids Life Cycle to raise funds and help improve lives of people affected by HIV/AIDS. The ride turned out to be very enjoyable and a great success, and I attribute much of it to the use of the energy patches. I noticed a significant increase in my average miles per hour, in my strength (especially going up hills), and in my endurance. To top off the experience, even after riding an average of about 85 miles per day, I had plenty of energy left in the evenings to enjoy the rest of the day's events.

THANK YOU for helping me make this event a great success, and for helping me make a difference!

LifeWave Energy Patches: An Asset To A Retired But Active Major League Pitcher!

I wish the LifeWave Energy Enhancer Patches were around when I pitched for the New York Yankees. Can you imagine what my record would have been? My professional baseball pitching career ended because of lower back problems. I'm presently a Pitching Coach for the Baltimore Orioles and have to condition myself to maintain this position.

My son, who's a personal trainer, sent me some LifeWave Energy Patches which I began to use when I run 4 days a week and cycle on the other days. What I noticed is that I have more endurance, my time increases, and more stamina while running, cycling, and even when I pitch.

I had rotator cuff surgery 6 years ago, and since using the LifeWave Energy Patches, I can throw more pitches without as much soreness the next day. LifeWave is a safer, natural performance, enhancing approach to improving athletic ability without using other drugs and stimulants. I believe LifeWave would be a contribution to baseball.

Energy Boost for Mom!

I did cartwheels with my 6 year old Rachel after putting on the patches. We were so happy and proud because this is the first time I have had energy to do that since having children 10 years ago. What a blessing!

... "ease of use & effectiveness"

Within the first two weeks of using the LifeWave Patches, I noticed a significantly positive increase in my cardiovascular abilities. The ease of use and effectiveness are the two characteristics that have created my confidence in this product. As a test of my own, I tried the patches on a few of my Black Belts. After an hour and a half of strenuous workout, each student did his/her maximum amount of pushups, applied the patches and waited three minutes, then continued pushups and 4/5 students were able to complete more than 10% more pushups. Another test consisted of one of my Instructor's wearing the patches during an Aerobic Kickboxing class. After this 800 calorie workout, the Instructor felt as though he could teach another Aerobic Kickboxing class.

My own experience consisted of my workout during a Black Belt Class. During an hour of sparring I was able to maintain my physical exertion at the same level as I began the class with. Looking over at the other Instructors and students in the class, I noticed that everyone was winded and their energy level was decreasing. I felt that the patches aided me in my cardiovascular output and in my body's recovery time between opponents.

This result was very impressive to me and reflecting upon my experience and my students' experiences with the product; I feel confident about the effects and look forward to sharing this with others in the future.

Still Hanging Around At 83

I am an 83 year old, relatively healthy, active single woman. And I pay attention to complaints from my body. My daughter brought me a one-week trial packet of LifeWave patches. During that week of going about my usual activities I became aware of subtle but amazing changes in how my body was functioning: 1. My daily stretching exercises made me feel more awake and lighter.

2. The most pull-ups I could do while hanging from my ankles on my Gravity Hanger increased from 10 to 15 the first day, to 20 the second day, and to 26 at the end of the week. This increased my pulse rate and broke a light sweat, but it also produced a feeling of more energy being available.

3. I could use the stairs to my third floor apartment without needing the hand rail even at the top.

4. Folding my arthritic spine in and out of my car was not accompanied by groans of stiffness.

5. Standing up from a firm chair required only one attempt, instead of leaning far forward and heaving upward.

6. I had much better balance when walking the few blocks to local services, and my feet articulated much better.

7. My energy level does not diminish in the late afternoons, nor do I fall asleep if I sit down intending to read.

8. How could I not order my first month's supply of patches by next-day mail?

Improbable, but true

It sounded impossible to me: "10 Minutes To Increased Energy." It was particularly strange, since the claim was made for a product where nothing enters the body!

How would you set out to prove that a product works for you, if the product in question is not eaten, ingested, injected, or in any other known way enters your body?

I have recently turned 69 and look forward to many more years of a healthy, active life, so obviously I was interested in what the product had to offer.

But how could objective criteria be established to prove the claims of, more strength and increased energy, when "proof" can be so subjective, and the placebo effect can't be discounted? That was the dilemma I faced when introduced to a new patch technology.

Most of the impressive testimonials and double-blind studies that I read concerning the patches come from the gyms and weight rooms, So I went to my gym and proved--to my own amazement--that I increased my second set of repetitions by 50-60%!

However, since I'm not a "gym-rat", (one workout every six months); this proven increase in strength was not much of an inducement for me to use the patches on a regular basis. In addition, I believed weight lifting was a niche and too small a market to get me excited about building a business.

Thus, my first supply of patches remained unused for several weeks. Then one day, I decided to put on a set of patches before a hike. I have a favorite, two and a half mile, mountain trail which I have run many times, but for most of this last year, I have been hiking it rather than running.

The fact is: during the last three years, I have slowly gained an unneeded 30 extra pounds, and when combined with the beginning my 70th year on earth, the extra weight and age added up to making a hike a more pleasurable experience than jogging. Still, I'm in good enough shape for a brisk mountain hike.

The dirt trail I chose rises steadily uphill beside a plunging stream, as it switches, snake like, through moss covered oak and holly trees. It's a beautiful trail, marked at half-mile intervals, so you can time your progress.

On this day, patches firmly placed on my upper chest near the shoulders, and not knowing what to expect, I began my hike. After only a few minutes, I felt like jogging. I decided to jog until I became tired, then I would walk. Upon reaching the first half-mile marker, my stopwatch indicated that I was only seconds slower than my previous running time. I didn't feel tired, nor did I feel that I was pushing myself, so I thought I would try to make it to the top of the hill; then I could take a breather.

I arrived at the one-mile marker only 20 seconds off my previous best jogging time and decided to continue without a rest. I had no feeling of pushing myself; my legs felt strong, and I experienced no shortness of breath.

I continued to jog the entire 2.5 mile trail and finished within a few seconds of my previous best time, without feeling especially tired or winded and after not jogging the trail for nearly a year!

I was amazed!

Anyone who understands "muscle specific" fitness knows that you lose strength and endurance when you quit exercising, and I had not jogged in months! My results were certainly Improbable! This was truly an objective test same measured distance vs. timed past performance and the results were too improbable to be caused by a placebo effect.

I am continuing to learn more about the science behind the patches and the many possible health benefits of wearing them on a regular basis.

I don't know about you, but when I am excited about something that has helped me, I want to share it.

"I just ran a half marathon in Ft. Lauderdale ( A1A) and had my fastest time in years. My last one in Miami which I ran 3 weeks ago was fast but I shaved 2.5 minutes off my time. I wore the patches for both races and was telling my friends about them."
