GNM (German New Medicine)

German New Medicine (GNM) is based on the scientific discoveries of Dr. Ryke Geerd Hamer, M.D. of Germany, which is shedding a new and revolutionary light on cancer, disease, its meaning and process. His research has established the connection between psyche, brain and body. Dr. Hamer came to call his findings "The Five Biological Laws of the New Medicine".

He found that disease is actually a significant biological process based on natural principles. These natural processes, which we call disease, are actually the body's way of physiologically balancing itself in times of emotional distress.

Dr. Hamer discovered that every disease is controlled from its own specific area in the brain and is linked to a very particular, identifiable, "conflict shock". These "shocks" that are activated in the brain send signals of distress to the organ or tissue regulated by those same brain relays, which responds with an alteration. Provided that there is a resolution to the conflict, every disease proceeds in two phases: a conflict-active phase and a healing phase.

GNM in Practice

A GNM practitioner has knowledge of the 5 Biological Laws and can help determine what conflict the client is experiencing or has experienced, where in the body it's presenting, and what phase of the disease process the client is in. If this sounds complex, it is! That's why educating the client, counselling and discussion are also important elements to this practice. This way, the practitioner can assess the best way to address the client's health concerns. One aspect of this is to help free individuals from the fear of disease and illness.

"If the patient has been made aware of all the facts, he will no longer need to get frightened by his symptoms. He can now fully accept these as the healing symptoms they are... In the greatest number of cases, the whole episode will pass without any serious consequences." - Dr. Hamer
