Question
Hahnemann distinguished 170 years ago this reflex or symptom esp. in allopathy. It is however a natural reflex to some degree: "Fight or flee" is necessary for self maintenance and is the equivalence of fighting symptoms. When you are on fire, you extinguish the fire first with for example water, this is a natural reflex. But it does not mean that this "reflex" is also the deeper natural way in "fighting" diseases. Fighting fire with fire is even sometimes necessary in real big fires. The natural reflex of fighting fire with water is however as said a natural reflex, this means that the body has several jobs where it does those tasks; this wisdom is known for centuries in China, India, Tibet etc. But what is doesn't mean and this is what allopathy does, is that they take over this task from the body when there is not such a direct emergency that the body cannot extinguish the "fire" itself.
This "natural reflex" is even known in psychology and psychiatry where it recognized as "defense mechanism" (of the mind), unfortunately psychiatric medicines are so called "evidence-based", which have an effect on the defense mechanism, but not to help it to cure itself but to take over the defense; so the mechanism is weakened in the end because it was left unused.
In homeopathy this is also known as a "modality". The natural reflex of for example the constitution "Pulsatilla", is for example to search for open air when becoming warm, "Ledum palustre" however will search for cold even when being cold. Both actions of the individual constitutions are natural reflexes, in agreement with their nature. But to heal those and other symptoms from Pulsatilla and Ledum, they really need those remedies.
Homeopathic remedies activate the system by simulating the disease which is similar to its own and in this way, the body will be activated to "fight the fire". When this task of the body is taken over, the body will direct its energy elsewhere changing it to morbid energy instead, since the root of the disease is not healed but the results taken away. Fighting the symptoms is actually medical quackery or allopathy, those are the real quack doctors. Do you consider this article a quack alert ?
