It is becoming increasingly evident that the use of healing energy is emerging into the mainstream of medical practice and alternative therapies are being allied to conventional medicine by many enlightened practitioners.  Medicine is returning to its historical roots.

The mobile brain, the million-year-old doctor, the placebo effect, and a number of enlightened medical researchers are all on your side in the fight against disease.  Bio-feedback and brain-wave training technologies, borrowed by psychologists from a series of spiritual, creative, alternative and even top-secret military sources, are increasingly being linked to, and can enable us to access and empower our own internal bodily defences.

Increasingly, large numbers of medical doctors have realised that it is too late to identify a disease such as arthritis when the damage is done. As with cancer, if you wait for an unambiguous indicator, odds are you will be losing the war. More and more researchers are becoming aware that ill-health is a continuum at the start of which there are similarities between the effects of most of the major diseases. But before these can be diagnosed, sufferers run the gamut of fruitless investigative techniques before the effects are sufficiently pronounced for one particular specialist to lay claim to them. 

It is almost with an obscene sense of relief that  patients welcome the news that they do have a crippling, or even life-threatening illness, rather than some suspected defect in moral fibre. What an indictment of the Western medical profession! 

It  would seem that many  Western practitioners are simply distributors for multinational chemical companies who make money out of each new wonder pill as it comes along and before it is discredited. Some doctors have rebelled against this role, daring to ask why these medications have their vogue.  They wonder why there is not more research into the mechanism responsible for healing in the placebo effect , by which the body can heal itself if the mind believes in some wonder drug which may tun out to be no more than a sugar pill.  Increasingly, they are investigating  alternative therapies, and considering that there might be a much cheaper, simpler and more effective way of working with the individual’s own healing energy which begins with listening to their patients, then using, encouraging and respecting their demonstrated ability to heal themselves.
