Hippocrates, the father of medicine taught healers the basic principle to do no harm. Now part of the Hippocratic Oath, the words are eternal, they are that crucial.
How well do you think that is being adhered to today?
My 13 year old boy has flat feet that turn outwards. Though I’m not a doctor, I believed it related to his spine and legs. No, I was told to go see a podiatrist and the referral was written.
After sitting in a full waiting room, we were ushered in. In just one minute of looking at him, the doctor tells me he needs an immediate complicated surgery. Right in front of my son! He would be unable to walk for a year and have a steel rod for life.
Do no harm? I could not believe it.
To cripple a healthy 13 year old boy?
I was angry at that man for scaring my son, but I’m not so easily manipulated. My son is now doing daily exercises to correct the real issues.
I wish this was an isolated case. Being sold by a doctor for a $30,000 procedure (the insurance would pay for that, but not the therapy he is having), using fear tactics made me angry. But many people, who are skeptical of other sales “jobs” are afraid.
The underlying issue is that the medical profession is trained to provide either drug interventions or invasive surgeries.
I agree that there are times that these treatments are sometimes needed and save lives. But it shouldn’t be the norm when other means aren’t even considered.
In searching for better answers, I found a rare gem; a place founded on the belief that the body is an amazing self-healing live “mechanism”.
It seems archane: the idea that if you will give the body all the tools and nutrition it needs and stop overworking it while it’s healing - it will go into high gear.
The Hippocrates Health Institute, aptly named after the original Hippocrates. It truly follows the idea of do no harm and teaches people to take charge of their own health.
Hippocrates Institute was totally unlike anything I had ever experienced in healing. For me, it was a taste of paradise.
People call it a miracle when some with cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, various tumors and so many other health conditions bring about their own healing using what they learn.
