E-Holistic Health - Why Holistic Medicine?

Chinese Medicine: Immunology

Chinese herbal medicine is thousands of years old. It is the most comprehensive pharmacological system in the world.

When properly formulated and prescribed, Chinese herbal medicines are very safe and effective. Like all thing consumed, improper or abusive use can contribute to unwanted side effects.

Commonly used Chinese herbal formulas for acute infectious diseases are based on ancient prescriptions with a proven track record. Chinese herbal formulas are safe because they always include "helper" herbs to mitigate any side effects from the stronger herbs in the formula that initiate the healing response to a disease.

When illness is acute (viral, bacterial), the symptoms of infection (fever, chills, sore throat, etc.) are commonly experienced. These illnesses can be effectively treated with Chinese herbal formulas that are designed to address a wide range of acute symptoms.

When illness is chronic or difficult to treat, a proper diagnosis and individualized treatment plan should be made by an experienced Chinese medical physician.

Homeopathy: The Miracle Medicine

Homeopathy is a complete system of medicine which strives to promote health by reinforcing the body's innate healing mechanisms and to drive toxins out of the body.

Homeopathy does not treat diseases -- it has remedies for people with diseases. Homeopathy treats the person, not the disease. No two people manifest illness the same way.

Whereas conventional allopathic medicines work against the disease (anti-inflammatory, anti-depressant, anti-biotic, etc.), homeopathy treats the person with a dose-response relationship: The right dose differentiates a poison and a remedy.

Nanopharmacology: Dilute preparations in highly purified water and potentize -- the preparation carries the molecular imprint of the proteins and other constituents of the pathological agent.

Biphasic response: Extremely small doses of a substance exhibit different and sometimes opposite effects than what they cause in high concentrations.

When illness is chronic or difficult to treat, a proper diagnosis and individualized treatment plan should be made by an experienced Chinese medical physician.

CAN I AFFORD HOLISTIC HEALTHCARE?

Holistic healthcare is affordable medicine in terms of out-of-pocket expense as well as in terms of the value of being healthy, happy and full of energy all the time.

Chinese herbal formulas and homeopathic remedies are similar in cost to over-the-counter conventional cold, allergy and pain medications. They cost substantially less than antibiotics and other prescription medications while delivering the same benefits and without the side effects of prescriptions medications.

The value of being well instead of sick with acute infections and repeated illnesses is priceless.
