About traditional medicine

Education and science have no limit and can never be stopped or limited. Wisdom commands us to study our predecessors lives and learn from their experiences. When we care for western and eastern acupuncture so much, why not pay attention to our own native medicine. Based on the point of view of “Hakims” (wise men or philosophers), the universe is made of the four elements of water, air, earth and fire. These elements that are completely in contrast with each other, have gathered together by gods will and have created the stability of this being’s temperament. This stability is based on the balance of the combination of these elements. If there is derangement in the temperament it causes disease.

The main factor in traditional medicine is diagnosing the patient’s temperament .This temperament is classified as the four humors of blood, phlegm, bile and soda. The treatments consist of herbal treatment, massaging and pushing the nervous paths. The kind of treatment applied depends on the patient’s diagnosis. The balance in temperament is gained through herbal treatment. Temperament is the necessary tool of balance of the four humors which depend on age, culture and geography status in addition to the human’s natural and inherited limits. These factors add up to from a special structure of which it’s components are in balance with each other. In every temperament one of the four humors over power the others and the three others are under its command.

Herbal treatment
Plants have life and are created by god. They are agreeable with our nature. Plants have temperaments, virtue and the power to cure.

In accordance to history, we humans were once vegetarians. With the passing of time, we have become carnivorous. Plants are the base of our food and health and have effective components which effect and strengthen or weaken one another when used together. It is in this condition that their numerous abilities are activated. Plants function for our benefit, do our commands and fight with the enemies of our health. In other words it can be said that plants are like weights that can give energy to our temperament scale of balance and maintain its balance and keep us healthy.

We humans have temperament and a need to keep it balanced. On the other hand lots of human diseases are due to unwanted and stored humors in our body (toxic waste) which can be treated with these curing herbs.

Plants are capable of widening our vessels, burning our lipids and turning them to glucose, opening the body’s filters such as kidneys, supplying the body with natural hormones, changing the functioning of the thyroid, liver, heart, brain, testicles, ovaries, stomach, lungs, pancreas, spleen bone marrow, and are also being the base of many drugs, even chemical ones.

Let’s say more about plants which are of our body’s nature and that can make the lost human of today gain contact with nature once again. Plants and herbs have no side effects, unless they’re perscribed against and opposing to the body temperament .The correct prescription of herbs is the duty of the physician or “Hakim” .Plants and herbs must be discovered and used. Many problems and curing-dead-ends can be relieved by plants.

The “Hakim” of our time has to be at least be a pharmacist or botanist or physician.

Phlebotomy
Phlebotomy is actually a sudden stress to the body’s motionless defence

System which awakens and activates it against all inner and outer obstacles.

Depending on the case, place and method of phlebotomy it can empty all infectious painful and harmful factors from the body. Phlebotomy on the base of the neck and the special spot between the shoulders can expel the main factors that cause the clotting of blood which consist of lipids and small parts that are ready to join each other in this spot. Phlebotomy in this spot traps this blood and expels it from the body. These dangerous components sometimes are aided toward other parts of the body and by the act of phlebotomy the body and is free of them.

Phlebotomy is capable of expeling the lipids that are in line ,next to each other and stuck in our back. These lipids can cause obstraction in vessels such as in CAD or Amboli when they eventually move to other sections of the body. By dry cupping in these areas and causing wide traps in the vessels and negative pressure, these lipids are stopped.

Phlebotomy can expel bile and cause relaxation.

Phlebotomy is an effective shock for mental patients and depression and such patients can benefit from such a shock.

Phlebotomy reduces blood pressure and therefore , to some extent prevents factors that cause sudden heart attacks (such as nose bleeding in patients with high blood pressure).

Phlebotomy is effective on inner and outer allergy factors. It is beneficial for those who have urticaria or liver insufficiency and lots of different allergies. It gives the body the chance to organize its defense system.

Phlebotomy is effective for abanding drugs. It helps the patient resume signs of self belief which is the basic and most important factors in abandoning drugs. It empties the blood of toxic substances.

Phlebotomy clears the obstructions which cause amenorrhea and by opening the vessel paths, it facilitates the passing of creams and lotions applied on the outside of the body and the medical and inner substances in the body.

Phlebotomy quickly reduces the darkness of sight in diabetical patients, and patients with high blood pressure and causes the start of awareness.

Phlebotomy expels the clots stuck in leg varicsin and other organs.

Phlebotomy is like a world which is behind us. It has always been with us but we weren’t aware of it. It is as if we have just discovered it. It is now up to scientists and professors to study it and make use of it.

Phlebotomy is just like a string in curing pains and disease. The more we go forward, the thicker it becomes, it can become a thick rope we can hang on without fright.
