Healing Vs. Symptom Removal

By Lawrence Wilson M.D.Healing is quite different from symptom removal. The medical profession provides symptom removal, which is necessary at times. However, symptoms often point to deeper imbalances that are not addressed when the symptom is the focus.
Healing is a much more profound process that takes longer, but is well worth the effort. In the long run, it saves both money, time and may save your life as well. The programs I design are for healing. Many people do not want healing, and prefer a quick fix. I understand this, but am disappointed when people do not follow through because I know the benefits of deep healing.
Healing involves the following:
1) Improving genetics. Everyone is born with some mutated DNA and then exposed to ionizing radiation and toxic chemicals that can cause genetic damage. As mutated cells reproduce, more tissue is affected until illness manifests. Electric light sauna therapy and substances such as kelp can slowly eliminate radioactive metals in the body and destroy mutated cells to prevent them from reproducing.
2) Removing toxic metals and harmful chemicals from the body. Everyone is exposed to thousands of times the amount of toxic metals as has occurred in past generations. This is due to industrial use of toxic metals, coal-burning power plant emissions, sealed buildings and household and office chemicals.
Toxic metals replace vital minerals in enzyme binding sites, leading to impaired functioning of the enzymes. Toxic chemicals bind to receptor sites and interfere with metabolic processes in many other ways that lead to impaired health.
Nutritional balancing and detoxification with light sauna therapy, enemas and other methods will slowly remove accumulated toxic chemicals and heavy metals from the body.
3) Replenishing vital nutrients. Depleted soil, use of hybrid crops, chemical agriculture, poor quality and refined food diets, poor eating habits and stressful lifestyles contribute to widespread nutrient deficiencies in the population. Most children are born with nutritional imbalances due to imbalances in the parents. Nutrient deficiencies are subtle at times, and result in a multitude of health conditions.
Replenishing minerals takes several years, as the body has buffering systems to prevent excessive absorption of any nutrient. Tissue mineral analysis when done by a laboratory that does not wash the hair and interpreted properly, can help slowly replace nutrients without upsetting body chemistry. Lifestyle changes are often essential to reduce stress and improve food choices, shopping and cooking practices and eating habits.
4) Eliminating biological toxins including infectious organisms and their endotoxins. In my experience. most people have half a dozen or more chronic infections. Over half have overgrowth of intestinal candida albicans and other enteric pathogens. These produce endotoxins and contribute to many common symptoms such as post-nasal drip, chronic aches and pains, bloating, fatigue and hundreds of others.
In most cases, suppressive therapy is not required to clear these infections. Replenishing nutrients and eliminating toxic substances from the body with nutritional balancing and sauna therapy improves infection-fighting ability and removes poor quality tissue on which the organisms feed.
5) Balancing the autonomic nervous system. Most people have overused their sympathetic nervous system, also called the fight-or-flight system. This system suppresses the immune system and suppresses digestion, assimilation of nutrients and elimination of waste products. The result is poor health.
Reducing sympathetic nervous system activity through nutritional balancing, sauna therapy again, lifestyle changes and stress reduction beneficially affects the autonomic balance and general health.
6) Mental and Emotional healing. False ideas such as cynicism, hatred, arrogance, guilt and unfounded fears are every bit as toxic as physical poisons. Toxic emotions including anger, resentment and envy also cause much disease. These activate the sympathetic nervous system and deplete vital nutrients.
Many therapies including counseling, nutritional correction, color therapy, body work and others can help release toxic ideas and emotions.
7) Spiritual development. We are not here just to eat, work, sleep and raise families. Much illness is caused by lack of awareness of the more subtle spiritual reasons for our existence. Instead, many people wear themselves out worshipping false gods of fame, friends, family and fortune. The primary adult relationship is with the source of creation. If this is placed secondary to material concerns, illness often develops.
Correction involves a reordering of priorities with appropriate lifestyle and attitudinal changes to place first things first.
