Vibrational medicine
Encyclopedia
Vibrational medicine is an alternative therapy based on the belief that illness is caused by energy imbalances.
The concept is based on the premise that human bodies
are made up of interconnected fields of putative (not empirically observable) energy and that when a human body is not well that it is the result of one or more of these fields of energy being unbalanced and that the re-balancing of these esoteric energies will help to re-establish a person's good health. Proponents hypothesize that disease within the physical body occurs at the cellular and bimolecular
levels. In vibrational medicine, healing is said to extend from the bimolecular level to the cellular and finally, to the anatomical. According to Hwaa Irfan, praying to Allah
can help raise the vibration from negative to positive.
. It is not recognized in medical academia and has been described as "the weirdest of New Age therapies".

Reputation and efficacy
There is no scientific evidence that the energy fields that vibrational medicine is based upon exist, and therefore vibrational medicine is generally viewed as pseudosciencePseudoscience
Pseudoscience is a claim, belief, or practice which is presented as scientific, but which does not adhere to a valid scientific method, lacks supporting evidence or plausibility, cannot be reliably tested, or otherwise lacks scientific status...
