Abstract

Besides the treatment of miasmatic layers by using classical nosodes, the treatment of influenza, especially by its isopathic nosodes, brings about a deeper treatment of the sycotic miasm.

Influenza is an acute disease that gives us the opportunity, if treated correctly, to clear a sycotic layer in the patient. On the other hand, the common habit in the homeopathic world of prescribing Influenzinum or Oscillococcinum (Anasbarbariae) in times of influenza to ‘prevent’ patients from getting ‘flu, is a bad habit which derails the vital energy from its balance and makes the person susceptible to becoming more entangled in the sycotic miasm. The same happens if one of those isopathic ‘flu remedies or another common remedy is prescribed when the patient has ‘flu and this remedy is not the appropriate one. Thus both approaches often cause a homeopathic suppression.

But, when the isopathic ‘flu remedy (mostly in association with the similimum of the patient) is prescribed correctly in a patient who is subject to a cold or ‘flu, it will clear a sycotic layer in the patient. This way of treating ‘flu is most common in my practice and can be verified by the energetic examination.

Keywords: Influenza, sycosis, sycotic miasm, ancestral energy, energetic examination, control.
