PM writes: "I have MS and have been to many physicians. A local chiropractor has a new therapy using tuning forks and life energy.

Latest New Age Quackery Promises to Rewrite Your Quantum Hologram (whatever that means)
KE writes: "I know someone who is undergoing treatment from a holistic healer. During the sessions they use something called quantum therapy vials. The person holds magnetic vials in his hands and his responses to questions are monitored.
