An Exposition of Natural Healing Methods

We've earlier introduced different natural healing methods from the ancients. This has included:


  • Tai Chi
  • Acupuncture
  • Reiki
  • Ayurveda
  • Reflexology


You'll read this in many online articles and even watch this on YouTube or television shows. But why is there much fuss about it, today especially in social media?



My guess is this: People have gone tired of seeking help from Western Medicine but ending up feeling even worse. How many cancer patients have you seen feeling weaker and depressed after a chemotherapy treatment? How many patients have used their money for surgery hoping it will alleviate them from their pain yet ended up going back for another surgery this time for a different ailment? How many?

They are too many to count, most of which may have already rested in peace. So why do I take time writing about natural healing methods? Is this to combat Western Medicine?

Probably some of its methods, but not all of it. I believe that there are many benefits to Western Medicine but the practice has been corrupted by several pharmaceutical companies who have only one thing in mind - PROFIT. The same goes for medical machine and instrument manufacturers who just wish to sell their brand but to help treat patients.

Think before you take that drug, choose Natural Healing Methods as a primary treatment option


So is this an attack against conventional medicine?

I hope not. This is simply an eye-opener to many. It is another option that you may embrace or reject. But I'll be looking for several articles online to help enlighten you on this issues.

I'll be researching and sharing it with you so you'll know more about it. Should you have topics in mind that you wish me to explore, feel free to share it with me. I'd love to read them.

For the meantime, this is an excerpt from one of the articles from Huffington Post dated Nov 30, 2013 and has been updated last December 6, 2017.

Ancient Healing Techniques That Can Improve Your Modern Life


"Ironically, when it comes to treating the ailments of modern life — which can be exacerbated by chronic stress and a relentlessly fast-paced life — thousand-year-old healing methods might be some of the best remedies.

The exploding popularity of meditation and yoga in the West — the physical and mental health benefits of which are supported by an extensive body of scientific research — have put ancient healing methods on the map. In addition to the more popular mindfulness practices, there are many more timeworn (but still science-supported) self-healing methods you may not have heard of that can work wonders in boosting your health and well-being.

As the early Greek physician Hippocrates said, “The natural healing force within each of us is the greatest force in getting well.” 

What can you say about this declaration by Hippocrates? Do you think the body has its own way of naturally healing its own with some help from nature?
