DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES AND TREATMENTS
Paracelsus Biological Medicine employs the use of non-toxic
diagnostic aids that view not only structural imbalances, but also functional,
regulatory, energetic and psycho-emotional conditions. The advanced diagnostic
tests used include darkfield microscopy, biological terrain assessment,
electro-acupuncture (after Voll), thermography, dental panoramic x-rays,
heavy metal evaluation, heart rate variability testing, hair mineral analysis,
and many others. These methods give a picture of the patient’s health
situation that is simultaneously broader and more specific than its allopathic
counterpart: patients are evaluated for constitutional type and for the
exact quality of their internal milieu. Constitutional typing is a hallmark
of many types of traditional medicine; it allows the practitioner to predict
what kind of ailments might affect the patient and apply preventative
measures. An evaluation of the internal milieu is essential to understand
the environment that created the disease. For example: cells are surrounded
by a sort of soup known as interstitial fluid. High acidity of interstitial
fluid has been linked to certain types of cancer. When we know the pH
of interstitial fluid, we can influence its acidity via diet and other
factors to prevent or heal disease.
