Fixing Symptoms is Actually Not the Fix You Are Really Looking For
Most people think that treating symptoms means addressing the underlying driving mechanisms to correct the issue
It does not.
It means suppressing or alleviating the symptom via medications or therapeutic interventions.
The problem with this is that symptoms are downstream effects stemming from core underlying driving mechanisms.
They are in fact messages the body shares to bring to your attention, the deeper dysregulation occurring which always stems from one of two factors.
What we are doing to ourselves - diet, lifestyle, thought patterns
What is being done to us - environment, social or cultural programming, and medications or therapeutic interventions that do not address the core issue but also come with their own associated side effects
Attempting to suppress or alleviate the symptom without addressing the underlying driving factors may provide short-term relief but while those underlying factors are still occurring you can be sure the symptoms will either reappear or manifest in a different way and get worse over time.
A short-term fix without the deeper work almost always leads to long-term expensive and scarier consequences.
So your next question might be why doesn’t the conventional allopathic health model do the deeper work?
Because it’s actually not a health care model it's a business model - head to this article and the resources provided which explain more.
It’s not actually your doctor's fault, they are only doing what they’ve been trained to do.
Eventually, they either wake up to the fact their training is of limited real value to health (outside of acute injuries) and seek the deeper understanding that programs like ours provide or they choose to live (and die) by that business model.
They have a choice...just like you do.
