From the beginnings of man there have been a myriad of healing methods used for illness, disease, accidents and wounds. Herbal remedies, poultices, letting, traditional medicine, acupuncture, holistic approach and faith just to name a very few.
Herbal remedies have been around since the very beginning, with the Chinese, Native Americans and others understanding and utilizing their powerful ability to heal. We are making a resurgence in our country today, but many of the ancient secrets have been lost. We will continue to understand and harvest plants from around the globe. Poultices were used for centuries for colds, flu, inflammation, and wounds.
Blood letting was a bad idea, it has been proven that is what killed George Washington. Take a sick person, cut him open and let out life sustaining fluid is not a great idea. Ignorance has killed many a person. The concept was that the disease was in the blood so to rid the body of the disease, rid the body of the blood. Traditional medicine has made miraculous advances in the past generation and is advancing daily in its cures, pain management and treatment of diseases, especially cancers.
Portland acupuncture is as old as ancient Chinese culture and also is making a resurgence in modern medicine. People swear by its healing powers for help in stopping smoking, pain management and especially back and face pain. It has been effective when traditional medicine runs out of ideas. The holistic approach is one that the body is a whole, not separate systems, the treatments utilize natural methods. The power of faith to heal is irrefutable, even doctors and scientist can explain how it works, but those diagnosed with the most diabolic disease often find their cure in faith. There is no one way to heal the body, be it acupuncture, herbs or traditional medicine, find what you have the faith in to make you whole.
