Both energetic medicine (acupuncture) and allopathic medicine recognize more and more the effect of the mental and emotions in physiology. We live in times full of fear, worry, stress, depression, anxiety and exhaustion. Often these emotions contribute to or even cause the patient’s illness. Moreover, the pervasive use of moodstabilizing drugs further complicates diagnosis and treatment. Energetic medicine inherently explains the impact of emotional imbalance on overall health. Now more than ever, it is imperative to understand how to include the emotions in the diagnosis and to incorporate the mental in the treatment for all patients.
