Abstract
A method for inducing a state of conciousness in a human being by bombarding the body with a fluid pulsating at a frequency corresponding with the frequency of brainwaves normal to the state being induced. A method is also disclosed for producing a concentrated fluid discharge by completely and rapidly blocking a flowing fluid stream under pressure, accumulating the resulting pressure rise and completely and rapidly releasing a concentrated fluid pulse. The invention includes apparatus for a producing a cyclic fluid discharge with a frequency from 1/2 to 120 pulses per second. Another method is disclosed for reducing fluid consumption without restricting fluid passageways by cyclically interrupting the flow of fluid and controlling the percentage of time during each cycle that fluid is allowed to flow.
