Because natural medicine is the result of an application of natural law, it should not be legislated or dictated to by mankind when practiced. What one practitioner does may be very successful for some patients but not for others with the same affliction. Every practitioner is unique in his approach or method to heal a particular illness just as every patient who responds to his ministrations is also unique in their response time and its effectiveness. Therefore to have the best results, high cure rates and happy patients each approach to his illness must be tailored to the individual patient’s body and it needs.
One pill designed for all patients having a similar illness may not work with some, just as too tight control over medical education, training courses and “acceptable” procedures for natural healers may do harm to some patients chances for curing an illness. This control over practitioners by health groups or government departments may allow “licensed” practitioners to treat patients even if they do not have the necessary experience but are qualified on paper. Such over control of education and natural medicine does not allow for “village cures” which may not be acceptable to those in authority but are effective. This over control also inhibits modification or development of newer technique as they evolve.
It therefore behooves those in authority to refrain from dictating methods or cures. Also they should not require excessive education of each practitioner as education usually is ten or more years behind any leading methods of practice. A light reign on natural medicine is best, just enough to keep charlatans and cheats in check and allow true healers to develop their own techniques and procedures.
