Rheumatoid Arthritis - The Healing Crisis Your Doctor Never Mentioned

Rheumatoid arthritis is a life-changing disease that remains a mystery to our most brilliant medical professionals. So much so that most traditionally trained rheumatologists who care for patients with the dreaded disorder tend to limit their scope of treatment to relieving pain and discomfort. This has been the status quo of treating patients with rheumatoid arthritis for the past few decades. Medical science was apparently in no hurry to find a protocol for reversing disease and restoring health that could be made available to the public.

In recent years, concerned groups have emerged, defying the traditional medical field, demanding answers and setting new standards for new and promising health-promoting treatments and therapies for the many types of arthritis. Many of these voices have factual, scientifically derived protocols that have proven effective in many cases in relieving the pain and discomfort of rheumatoid arthritis. There are some who even claim to have discovered cures for all rheumatic diseases.

Unknown to the average person on the street, even in medical circles, what is rarely discussed is something that is at the forefront of sensible, practical and successful attempts to restore the health of people with rheumatic complaints. This is nature's cleansing process, which homeopathic doctors and other naturopaths refer to as a healing crisis.

A healing crisis usually occurs within the first three to eight weeks after a conscious and sustained whole-body cleanse. The average duration is three to five days. It is often initiated by a therapeutic fast or cleansing diet. This allows for an unchanging natural principle often referred to as the “Law of Healing.” This principle teaches that:

1. Natural healing of a disease condition begins deep within the body and affects the skin.

2. Natural healing of a diseased condition begins with the head and moves downward toward the feet.

3. Natural healing of a disease condition occurs in the reverse order of how the symptoms originally appeared in the body.

A disease state such as arthritis follows a specific path or stages of deterioration and degradation and a predictable path to recovery. When an arthritis sufferer performs systemic waste elimination and adopts a biologically friendly fast or cleanse diet, that person often begins to revisit the same symptoms that occurred at various stages during the disease's development.

It is at this point that nature, through a healing crisis, can regress a person through the degenerative, chronic, subacute and acute stages of their rheumatic disease until the original state of acute irritation is reached. Reversal of the disease state at its basis can often be achieved if the person continues to allow the great unchanging principle of nature to operate unhindered throughout the body.

From there, it is simply a matter of following a sensible nutritional program and making certain lifestyle changes to achieve the desired goal of partial or complete reversal of the rheumatic disorder. What many biologically oriented practitioners have known for years, and what some of our current health professionals are discovering, is that there can be no complete recovery from disease without a healing crisis and the process of disease reversal.
