Individualized Holistic Health Care

Nanotechnology, which is sometimes shortened to "Nanotech", refers to a field whose theme is the control of matter on an atomic and molecular scale. One nanometer (nm) is one billionth, or 10-9, of a meter. To put that scale in another context, the comparative size of a nanometer to a meter is the same as that of a marble to the size of the earth. Or another way of putting it: a nanometer is the amount a man's beard grows in the time it takes him to raise the razor to his face. Still simpler one nanometer is about 10000 times finer than the thickness of a strand of your hair. A number of physical phenomena become pronounced as the size of the system decreases. These include statistical mechanical effects, as well as quantum mechanical effects, for example the “ quantum size effect” where the electronic properties of solids are altered with great reductions in particle size. This effect does not come into play by going from macro to micro dimensions. However, it becom

Have you ever given a thought to a fact that when we get a cut or a bruise, you have to just keep the injured area clean, no need to apply any medication, after some time the bleeding stops (clotting), then there is inflammation and in another few hours the skin joins and you see scab being formed (granulation) and in few days the skin is seamlessly in place - healed. (Read: Sequence of process in wound healing ) How and why does this and so many self healing miracle happen? All living beings are resilient. Left alone and given the right environment we all have ability to recoup to our original health. Our body has this unique ability to repair itself by virtue of a program within the ‘Genes’ of the human body. These genes are constantly on the alert to defend and protect the body. This gift lies within our genetic material, expressed as proteins which are responsible for the way the body expresses and defends itself when in danger (internal as biochemical imbalance or external a

Man is part of nature; his health is nothing but his being at ease with nature. We   have ended up taking a mechanical view of man, as a result we have ended up treating just the ‘sick’ or dis-eased part/condition of man...like headache, blood pressure, diabetes, sinusitis, psoriasis. And more often than not we are only controlling the disease/condition be it our blood pressure, diabetes, asthma etc. etc. We end up taking medicines that only help us manage our disease better. In the process what we fail to understand is that the sick ‘part’ or the diseased condition is only an expression (we commonly refer to it as a symptom) the organism’s way of calling attention for remedial action.   This symptom is often expressed through the part that is weakest and hence most susceptible to derangement and hence the focus for attention is not the part but the whole living being. A Pill For Every Ill

Dr. Samuel Hahnenmann who founded the system of homoeopathy says in the first aphorism in the Organon   “The physician’s high and only mission is to restore the sick to health, to cure, as it is termed.”   It is important to note that he does not begin by  praising the virtue of homoeopathy or any other system, but with a simple yet powerful statement.  Cure is nothing but restoration of health. And, this one needs to knows the things that derange health and cause disease. So, what are the things that cause disease? If we consider the word ‘disease’, it means we are in a state of dis-ease, not at ease. This means that our health is deranged. World Health Organization (WHO) defines health as ‘Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well- being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.’ The above definition covers two very important aspect concerning health, one is the stress on social well-being and the other is that the mere absence of disea

“The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.” – Thomas Edison ‘Health Maintenance’ cost has become prohibitive and hence the focus is now shifting onto ‘Preventive Health Care’.  Ayurveda, Naturopathy, Acupuncture, Homoeopathy… are among the leading medicinal systems whose role in providing preventive health care solution has gained wide-spread acceptance.  New understanding into the science of genetics, nano-technology , molecular science and quantum physics has only helped in understanding and also validating the working of above listed medicinal system. This blog space is intended to promote these holistic and cost effective health care options and also share finding from emerging sciences that help understand our health better.
