Thermobaric Repatterning is a systems approach to healing based on analysis of the energy matrix (the Thermobaric Matrix) of a biological system. Simply, it looks at a person as being a dynamic field of energy expressing as patterns and vectors of variation of heat, pressure and motion identified with and resulting in chemical and morphological effects on physiological form and function.

Space does not permit inventorying of all factors constituting the Thermobaric Matrix of individuals.

Among the range of factors considered in analyzing the functional activities, damage and adaptive responses possible, the analysis considers the history and current status of:

Heat Vectors: representing differences in energy exchange and may vary depending on the composition and density of material (blood, internal organs, muscle, scar tissue), degree and type of heat exchange (radiation, conduction, convection or evaporation), behavioral and environmental factors (digestion of various foods effecting metabolic rate; rate and depth of respiration; altitude; climate; type of clothing and bedding) that may induce an increase in thermodynamic activities or a decrease.

Pressure Vectors: represents changes in the rate of blood flow, osmotic exchange across the lungs or in digestion or elimination as well as the total biological references to environmental and behavioral events (air travel in partial pressurized flights, altitude adaption, athletic activities and adaption to stress.

Motion is a vector for all changes in thermodynamic activity. It enables analysis of the complex dynamics of material fatigue due to repeated thermodynamic stress, changes in the biologic inventory caused by chemical and drug exposures, "state of being" imprinting due to emotional or physical conditions and cumulative changes not predicted by individual factors.

Beginning with a detailed Medical and Personal History, the functional Thermobaric Matrix is mapped. The map projects the cumulative effects of the history and current condition of the individual. The map also identifies where thermodynamic repatterning is called for and the adjustments of particular organ system to changes. This enables more accurate choices in applying therapies and anticipates probable reactions or healing crises as the functional matrix corrects or is subjected to further stress. Knowing the status of an individual's matrix enables reduction in risk, optimization in care, and greater probability of success for appropriate therapies.
Use of the Thermobaric Matrix in research of infectious diseases, chemical exposures and environmental sensitivities enables common factors to be quickly identified and appropriate warning, treatment, and public health response to take place.
