CURING INCURABLES
(Vladimir KonovalovТs Integral Sistem Medicine)
To be or not to be healthy ? Is 100-percent health possible today, when diseases overpower almost everybody and longevity is falling? This, at a time when pharmacies are packed with medicines, people with extra sensual perception appear on the television screen, alternative healing centres have been opened. The time has come to see what is what. Below is the story of therapist Vladimir Konovalov, Ph.D. (Medicine). Without practice any theory is nil. Twenty years of day-to-day practice have produced staggering results: Konovalov knows how to handle even incurable cases. What lies behind the NEW WAY OF THINKING IN MEDICINE which Vladimir Konovalov advocates?
The crisis of medicine on the threshold of the 21 St century is a bitter reality facing both Russian and Western health care systems. The wide-spread notion of Western medicine as of something basically better is erroneous. ThereТs no difference IN PRINCIPLE between our rank-and-file city hospital and the best clinics in the world. The only difference is the provision of instruments, medicines and service. MEDICAL THINKING at the level of Уif there s a disease - there s a diagnosisФ and Уno disease - no diagnosisФ, which could really make a difference between these institutions is basically the same everywhere.
Moreover, the crisis of medicine is only one example of a crisis of medicine is only one example of a crisis of civilisation and the acme of a range of global issues facing humanity, from environmental to economic, issues on which the survival of man as a species depends.
Medicine, with the exception of its important aspect hygiene is making no contribution to the achievement of this aim. By a multitude of its non-physiological means and methods it cultivates new diseases, rather than promotes humankindТs genetic health. Of course, achievements of modern official medicine in the fields of resuscitation, surgery, combating of epidemic diseases, grave ailments in acute form are indubitable. Another plus is that many medicinal institutions are stuffed with new super-instruments and pharmacies abound in Уwonder drugsФ. But, on the one hand, a tremendous number of people feel bad though their polyclinics and hospitals can discover no ailments; while on the other hand, it often happens that a disease has been discovered but medicine has proved helpless. Such ailments include psoriasis, eczema, allergies, bronchial asthma, prostatite, ischemic heart disease, encephalopathies, grave anemias, neurosis, peptic ulcer, menТs impotency, infertility, womenТs masthopathies and myomas, etc. Instead of Уhealth-oriented medicineФ official medicine has become Уdisease-oriented medicineФ. Instead of putting man in good health, it only removes pain and suppresses development of a disease - this is essentially its goal and this is what its capabilities boil down to. Regretfully, years of this approach to health have led to a situation in modern medicine in which the emphasis is not on the doctorТs skills but on instruments and the pharmaceutical industry, to manТs being actually divided up between narrow specialists. The crisis of modern medicine as disease-oriented medicine certainly does not diminish its achievements, nor does it mean negation of narrow specialisation. But, preservation of the METHODS and Technology of official medicine as they are today leads to a deadlock. What do we get as a result? Because we have no Уhealth-oriented medicine we suffer from diseases. We can and must be healthy and sound. The answer lies in an integral system medicine. An integral approach is essentially a combination of everything best in diagnostics and treatment methods in traditional (old Chinese, Indian), non-traditional (modern) medicine and certain folk healing approaches.

An integral approach is essentially a combination of everything best in diagnostics and treatment methods in traditional (old Chinese, Indian), non-traditional (modern) medicine and certain folk healing approaches. How do we switch to integral medicine? It's not so easy as it seems. A mere sum of means and methods- swallowing a pill and an herbals preparation, followed by two or three Herbal teas and self-suggestion- is not enough for good health. This is not what is meant by integral, or system medicine. What is crucial is not subtraction but interaction of all sorts of medicine. Human health depends not only on absence or presence of diseases, but on harmony between the body, spirit and consciousness, absence or presence of finer-than-disease disturbances- hereditary weakness of organs, dysfunction, pre- and post- illness conditions. A combination of fine disturbances undermines the health of man. This is why methods of traditional medicine help to reveal and remove hidden multiple disturbances. Modern medicine practically ca
Put yourself in the shoes of patients. All of them go on living with their allergies, which as a rule develop into polyallergies. Allergens are encountered at about every step and ca
I mean to say that diagnostics should be carried out in a way which permits the discovery of ailments and finer disturbances. Then a set of these disturbances should be analysed from the positions of system clinical thinking and conclusions drawn on the hidden complex root cause of allergic susceptibility in any particular case. Then, using methods and means which can correct less- than- disease disturbances, the root case should be attacked. This will make the patient like everybody around him: allergies around him are many, but he does not respond ( rather gives due response) to them, because the disturbances in his body through which once permitted the allergic reaction nave been eliminated.
