Why Seek the Help of a Heilkunst Practitioner
I am always amused when I meet people and they ask what type of work I do. Usually I reply that I’m in the alternative health field and wait for a response. Most people tend to stop the conversation at that point, while others are a bit more curious. Some share stories about someone they know who is seeing a naturopath, an acupuncturist or a massage therapist, as these professions are somewhat familiar to them. Occasionally, the conversation goes a little further and I’m asked to describe exactly what I do. “I’m a Doctor of Medical Heilkunst.”… WOW…The room gets quiet.
Heilkunst is a German term which means “the art of making whole”. Heilkunst is the original system of medicine that Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843) outlined in the Organon of the Medical Art (originally titled Organon der Heilkunst). This man’s genius brought us a true system of medicine that can cure disease, without harming the physical body or suppressing the symptoms. “First, do no harm.”
Everything in the universe is subject to laws, including the process of disease and cure. If those laws are not respected, then you will pay a price down the road. There are no exceptions.
Heilkunst consists of three realms (laws):
Imbalances in regimen are corrected according to the Law of Opposites. For example, if you are deficient in vitamin C, then taking vitamin C will resolve the deficiency, a concept with which we are familiar.
Diseases are removed according the Law of Similars. This is the concept of “like cures like”. For example, if you have a “coffee disease”, in other words, if you are restless, wired and feel like you have been drinking too much coffee, then taking a homeopathic remedy called coffea will remove the “coffee disease”.
Therapeutic Education is achieved by providing a higher truth. It involves deeper issues, such as false beliefs, illusions and delusions, along with our deepest fears. For example, if you always feel abandoned, then the world will mirror that back to you and you will continually experience situations where you feel abandoned. Once you have dealt with the issue of abandonment, then you will realize that no one abandoned you, they just had to leave.
During the initial visit, your Heilkunst practitioner will spend a lot of time listening to your life story. Attention is paid to even the smallest details. It is important to determine if we are dealing with an actual disease (state of mind) or just an imbalance due to nutritional deficiencies, drug side effects, excess supplements, etc. Also, your family’s history will be examined to see what genetic baggage or miasms you may be carrying since birth. Miasms make you susceptible to certain conditions such as allergies, addictions, cancer, heart disease, and the list goes on. In other words, these are the conditions that many of your relatives are experiencing or have experienced.
An important part of our treatment is called “Sequential Treatment”. It involves making a timeline of all the shocks and traumas you have experienced in your life. Clearing your timeline involves you going back in time to pick up the pieces that were left behind due to these traumatic events. In other words, you are taken back in time to reclaim your health, so that you become whole again.
I like to compare the timeline to a bag of potatoes that you are carrying on your back. The weight of the bag varies from person to person and it is directly related to the number of traumas you have experienced in your life. As a child, usually you had a lot of energy and were full of life. The bag of potatoes you were carrying was fairly light since you only experienced a few traumatic events; it’s not a big deal. It doesn’t really slow you down and you don’t worry about it very much. You may have fallen from your bicycle, taken an antibiotic for an ear infection and received a few vaccinations. But as life progresses, more traumas, or potatoes, are added to your bag. The bag is starting to get heavier, and as a result you start feeling more tired and dragged down. Eventually, if these traumas are not released or unblocked, chronic disease can result.
Shocks and traumas that have an impact on our life force can be, but are not limited to:
Before your initial consultation, you will be asked to make a list, in chronological order, of all the traumatic events you have experienced. Then, at every consultation, usually every 4-6 weeks, you will be given homeopathic remedies to clear the blockage that these events created. Remember, we are always going backwards in time. If you have a “Never Been Well Event”, your practitioner may want to treat that event out of sequence and redo it at the appropriate time.
Many patients wonder how they will ever remember all the traumatic events of their lives. Rest assured, if the events are important enough they come to the surface at the appropriate time and they are treated at that moment since your body is letting us know that it’s time. Your body is like a computer. It has memories of all the shocks and traumas that have occurred in your life and will make them known at the right time. This is quite amazing to watch.
As a result of taking the appropriate homeopathic remedies to clear a particular trauma, you will briefly experience uncomfortable or annoying symptoms that we refer to as “healing reactions” which will usually run their course. If, for any reason, it seems like things are moving too slow or you feel stuck, it is important to contact your practitioner since you may need some additional remedies to help the body successfully remove that particular shock or trauma. During the treatment you may experience cold or flu-like symptoms, such as headaches, nausea, fatigue and rashes. The symptoms should be short-lived and not interfere with your life. Think of it as a spring cleaning. This will leave you with a greater state of health on all levels and as a result you will have cured the underlying disease that created those symptoms in the first place.
Heilkunst is not a band-aid approach to medicine; it does not mask or suppress symptoms. It does take time to work through the issues to get at the underlying cause of the disease but the effort is well worth the time. Heilkunst is safe and effective. It can be used alongside other medical treatments as it does not interfere with prescription drugs or any medical treatment. It encompasses all medical and health issues. It is complete care for the body, mind, soul and spirit. A state of health is not simply an absence of symptoms. True health is a balanced state where we radiate vitality, making us free to reach our highest potential.
