Geopathology

Geopathology (also Geopathy) is a theory that links the Earth's inherent radiation with the health of humans, animals and plants.

The term is derived from Greek γεω- (geō-), combining form of γῆ (gê, “earth”) and πάθος (páthos, “suffering”) - ie pathology, widely used to describe infirmities.

[3] von Pohl conducted a study in the Bavarian town of Vilsbiburg in 1929 which purported to link focus points of 'earth-radiation' ger.

[4] Ley lines (a supposition introduced by Alfred Watkins in 1925) have also been suggested to create geopathic stress.

[6] Such distorted vibrations are held to rise upwards through the Earth's surface and create an pernicious effect on the health and/or behaviour of all biological life.
