- Abstract
Biofield is a complex, dynamic multi layered electromagnetic field that surrounds and fills the body. Biofield devices are used to assess the subtle energy field surrounding the object. These devices measure physiological and energy states by scanning the object’s biofield and generating an image of its energy field. The importance of biofield scanning is to check insights into stress levels, organ energy distribution, emotional balance, and overall wellness of a person. These devices are mostly used in complementary medicine, energy based healing systems, meditation research, and personal well-being monitoring. This paper summarizes the various methods in biofield measurement, covering imaging techniques (GDV/EPI, PIP, aura interference), physiological methods (EEG, MCG), thermal and infrared imaging, biophoton detection, EMF measurement, and resonance frequency devices. The methodological difficulties, repeatability problems, and validation deficiencies are highlighted in this study.
