I just wanted to repost this Herring's Law of Cure, and let you know it is real, and true. When I started LDN, my diahrrea got worse, and new symptoms came to the fore-front. I firmly believe this is because of Herring's Law of Cure, as all the worsening symptoms eventually did go away....for me, and many other's on this board. You just need to stick it out. HERRING'S LAW OF CURE Hahnemann, : Organon of Medicine. Philadelphia. Pa., Boeriche and Tafel, 1901 In the treating of chronic diseases, the homeopaths have discovered that the elimination of these conditions proceeds in a certain specific order and rules have been laid down outlining this healing procedure. These rules are known as Herring's Laws in honor of Constantine Herring (1800-1880), who is considered the father of American homeopathy. Herring's three laws may be expressed simply as follows: 1. Symptoms of a chronic disease disappear in a definite order when the patient is properly treated in accordance with homeopathic recommendations. The symptoms usually disappear in the reverse order of their appearance-the most recent symptom disappears first; then an earlier symptom re-manifests only to abate when the proper remedy is given. This process continues until all the unresolved disease conditions are eliminated, even though some may go back to early childhood. This procedure is called the reverse progression of symptoms. This procedure of symptom regression isn't restricted to homeopathy alone, but is to be expected when most natural methods of therapy are used to overcome chronic ailments 2. Herring's second law states that the symptoms tend to move from the more vital organs to the less vital organs and from the interior of the body toward the periphery or skin. This law functions because of the body's attempt to preserve itself. If a disease that produces morbid matter can't be eliminated, the body tries to deposit the residues of this condition in as harmless an area as possible. The skin is one of the safest, but the body also frequently uses the various connective tissues and joints for this purpose. Only when the disease process is overpowering does the body allow it to invade the vital organs, and even then the body makes every possible attempt to keep the disease processes out of the heart and brain. When a patient comes to us with disorders of the vital organs, we know the vital force is weak or these areas wouldn't be affected and therefore the cure will be prolonged. Under treatment, the symptoms will subside and recede from the more vital areas to the less vital areas, and the symptoms may even end with a healing reaction on the best eliminator of all-the skin. 3. Herring's third rule states that the symptoms move from the top of the body downward, disappearing first from the head, then from the thigh to the knee, ankle, and foot. We frequently encounter this last pattern, wherein the pain will go from the abdomen into the hip, then thigh, then knee and then in and out the foot. These patients often comment: You know, Doctor, I'm sure when it gets down to the foot, it will just go out the toes and be gone. They usually are correct. The functioning of the third law is based on a principle similar to the second. Because the more vital areas are found in the head and upper portion of the body and those of less importance are encountered toward the extremities, the third law is a symptomatic extension of the second law. Its nature is important to the physician but not particularly to the patient. From these laws, a patient may realize that under proper homeopathic treatment he could re-manifest symptom patterns from an earlier stage of his life, only if these conditions weren't fully corrected originally. If he had so lived that the body didn't have residual disease material, it wouldn't be necessary to go through this retracing regimen. The homeopathic and natural healing physician look on chronic disease as the consequence of improper nutrition, emotional tension, improper treatment with allopathic medication and an over abundance of stress from which the body is not able to recover. The symptoms or the final manifestations that occur are merely an end result of these accumulated body assaults. While allopathy attempts to battle these manifestations when they become objectionable, the true natural healing physician directs his efforts to overcoming the underlying causes, thereby resulting in a patient who is disease-free, not one who is just symptom free. There is an old saying; You have to get worse before you get better. In general this is a lot of nonsense and it is used by many physicians to cover their inability to help their patients. With homeopathic remedies, however, this maxim may well be true. We attempt with homeopathic remedies to further stimulate the specific organs that are producing the symptoms. At first this stimulation may result in a short-term intensification of these symptoms, but this soon passes as the vital energy of the body responds to this stimulus and rapidly overcomes the disease. The homeopath is encouraged if his patient worsens slightly soon after taking the remedy, because this positively indicates that he has selected the correct remedy and it is having its desired effect. If the remedy is ill-chosen, it doesn't affect the proper tissues and no symptom will intensification result. Summary of Herring's Law of Cure Herring's Law of Cure tells us that we heal from the head down, from inside out and in reverse order as symptoms have appeared. This is the basis of all healing and we may have to get worse before we get better. If we are to heal the body of whatever disease it has, we must first believe we can heal. Then we must cleanse out the impurities and not suppress any discharge. Hope this give y'all some hope. Saundra > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
