European Biological Medicine, also referred to as Bioregulatory Medicine, German Biological Medicine or Swiss Biological Medicine, is a holistic approach to healthcare that considers the body as an integrated system with a complex interplay between physical, emotional, and environmental factors. This approach recognizes the importance of supporting the body's innate ability to heal and restore balance by addressing underlying imbalances and dysfunctions.
European Biological Medicine can be traced back to the work of many prominent European physicians in the 19th and 20th centuries including the work of the German physician Dr. Hans-Heinrich Reckeweg. Dr. Reckeweg is considered one of the founding fathers of modern European Biological Medicine. He helped found the company Heel Inc in Germany which produces some of the most advanced European Biological Medicine remedies on the market. Dr. Reckeweg pioneered the concept of Homotoxicology which is a pillar of European Biological Medicine. Homotoxicology which is the study of how toxins (also referred to as “homotoxins”) affect the health of the body and the progression of disease throughout the organ systems of the body. Through the use of uniquely designed combination homeopathic remedies Homotoxicology aims to reverse the damage that toxins cause to the body.
High Toxic Burden=Chronic Disease
One of the fundamental principles of European Biological Medicine is the importance of detoxification and drainage to help lower the toxic burden in the body and re-establish the body's own self-regulatory mechanisms. The human body is constantly being exposed to a huge range of both internal (waste products from normal metabolism) and external toxins. External toxins come from our environment in the form of toxins in the air we breath, the water we drink, the food we eat and the chemicals we place on our skin. These toxins can accumulate in the body over time and lead to a range of health problems. Eventually this toxic build up leads to a break down of healthy functioning of our cells and organs with chronic disease being the result. By lowering the body’s toxic burden through detoxification and drainage we can help reverse chronic disease and prevent it from occurring in the future.
Reversing Chronic Disease with Detox and Drainage
Detoxification is a natural process that occurs in the body every day, but in cases of chronic exposure to toxins the body's detoxification capacity may become overwhelmed. In European Biological Medicine, detoxification is seen as a critical component of restoring health and preventing disease. By supporting the body's natural detoxification processes, European Biological Medicine practitioners aim to reduce the toxic burden in the body and help the body function optimally.
One of the most important types of detoxification therapies used in European Biological Medicine are the use of oral, liquid, drop dose European Drainage remedies. These remedies are made from a combination of homeopathic, herbal and mineral ingredients that are specifically chosen to support the body's natural drainage pathways. The main organs targeted by European Drainage remedies are the primary organs of detoxification (also known as the “Emunctories”), these include the liver, kidney, lymphatic system and gut.
By supporting detoxification, oral liquid European Drainage remedies help restore the body's self-regulatory mechanisms. These self-regulatory mechanisms are a complex network of feedback loops and communication systems that help maintain balance in the body and respond to changes in the environment. Drainage therapies help rebalance these regulatory mechanisms by improving circulation, promoting cellular repair, and reducing inflammation in the primary organs in charge of removing toxins in the body. You can think of these remedies as natural “Drano” for the organs of detox. The same way you would use Drano if your sink was clogged Drainage remedies help “unclog” our backed up detox organs so that they function more efficiently.
My favorite European Drainage remedy companies include Heel, Soluna, Hevert, Nestmann, Guna, Pekana, and UNDA. Through my years of clinical practice I have found these companies to be most clinically effective at stimulating detoxification in the body. Each company has a remedy for one of the primary organs of elimination: the liver, kidneys, gut and lymphatic system. By gently supporting increased circulation to these organs on both an energetic and physical level these remedies affect a profound healing effect on the body.
