Synthesis in Healing by Judy Jacka Pdf

Throughout her thirty years as a naturopath, consultant, and educator in natural therapies, Judy Jacka has pursued a quest to understand the inner or subjective causes for disease. In her clinical practice in Australia, she combines Esoteric Healing based on her metaphysical studies with natural therapies. Her latest book is a synthesis of natural therapies and Esoteric Healing written with the aim of inspiring healers and patients to become truly holistic. The book is divided into two sections with both theory to introduce the reader to Jacka’s concept, and practice, which is loaded with case studies illustrating both the health problems and their solutions. The resolution of outer causes such as internal pollution, poor nutrition, and inherited predispositions are described in the theory section with an analysis of the role for mineral, vitamin, herbal, and homeopathic treatment. The theory section then delineates the inner causes involving the etheric/energy body and chakra disturbances. The meaning of soul as the main healing factor is explored and explained. Inner factors conditioning health and disease include those subtle states of consciousness that condition the chakras and electromagnetic fields underlying our physical organs. Part 2 is divided into sections that correlate to the main systems of the body such as the immune system, gastrointestinal system, circulatory system, and nervous system. The case histories for each section describe both the physical remedies and subtle healing techniques used and the subsequent progress of each client. *Contains numerous practical exercises to promote truly holistic healing *Judy Jacka, with over 30 years experiences, presents a system for understanding and treating both the inner and outer causes of disease

Medicine in Ancient Assur by Troels Pank Arbøll Pdf

In Medicine in Ancient Assur Troels Pank Arbøll offers a microhistorical study of a single exorcist named Kiṣir-Aššur who practiced medical and magical healing in the ancient city of Assur (modern northern Iraq) in the 7th century BCE. The book provides the first detailed analysis of a healer’s education and practice in ancient Mesopotamia based on at least 73 texts assigned to specific stages of his career. By drawing on a microhistorical framework, the study aims at significantly improving our understanding of the functional aspects of texts in their specialist environment. Furthermore, the work situates Kiṣir-Aššur as one of the earliest healers in world history for whom we have such details pertaining to his career originating from his own time.

Self-Healing Polymers by Wolfgang H. Binder Pdf

Self-healing is a well-known phenomenon in nature: a broken bone merges after some time and if skin is damaged, the wound will stop bleeding and heals again. This concept can be mimicked in order to create polymeric materials with the ability to regenerate after they have suffered degradation or wear. Already realized applications are used in aerospace engineering, and current research in this fascinating field shows how different self-healing mechanisms proven successful by nature can be adapted to produce even more versatile materials. The book combines the knowledge of an international panel of experts in the field and provides the reader with chemical and physical concepts for self-healing polymers, including aspects of biomimetic processes of healing in nature. It shows how to design self-healing polymers and explains the dynamics in these systems. Different self-healing concepts such as encapsulated systems and supramolecular systems are detailed. Chapters on analysis and friction detection in self-healing polymers and on applications round off the book.

Wound Healing by Vlad Alexandrescu Pdf

Outstanding scientific advances over the last decades unceasingly reveal real complexity of wound-healing process, astonishing in its staged progression, as life is unfolding itself. This natural course of tissue repair seems to bear thousands of overlapping molecular and macroscopic processes that nowadays only start to unfold to our knowledge. The present volume collecting recent scientific references proposes to readers a two-folded audacious goal. First, an updated design of intimate cellular mechanisms is entailed in tissue regeneration that emanates from the first section of the book. Next, a multidisciplinary therapeutic perspective that focuses on macroscopic healing throughout the second part of this work adds clinically integrated observation. Practical diagnostic and treatment information is appended in each chapter that may equally help experienced clinicians or dedicated students and researchers in broadening essential breaking points of their work. It is the wish of all multidisciplinary experts who gather prominent author's panel of this volume to incorporate latest medical reports and compel limits of current understanding for better tissue regeneration, limb salvage, and improved quality of life of our patients.
