Health is not the absence of disease ... it is a universal
good condition on all levels--physical, emotional and
mental. Alternative Medicine is a distinctively natural
approach to health and healing that recognizes the integrity
of the whole person. Disease or "dis-ease" is defined as a
lack of health. Disease results when any cell is not
functioning 100% of its designed duty whether due to trauma,
toxicity, lack of communication or a combination thereof.
Disease is due to stress. Whether due to ignorance or
laziness, exposing the body to stress will produce a
diseased state of the body. Stress is the only means of
tearing down health resulting in disease, our bodies paying
the price for violating the laws of nature (our wrong
doings). We do not "catch" a disease or illness, we earn it.
We must "work" for disease.
Disease is nothing more than the body responding to the
wrong we have done to it. It is the body's attempt at
keeping us alive in response to the wrongs we have inflicted
on our bodies. Pathological changes are the cell's response
to stress. These changes or compensations allow the body to
survive - maintain homeostasis - as long as the stress
continues. These tissue changes which result in disease, are
the outward manifestation of internal compensation to
stress. Until the cause is removed, the condition will
remain in one form or another.
