In this way, the cure of very old disease may be furthered by the physician
applying externally, rubbing it in the back, arms, extremities, the same
medicine he gives internally and which showed itself curatively. In doing
so, he must avoid parts subject to pain or spasm or skin eruption.*
* From this fact may be explained those marvellous cures, however
infrequent, where chronic deformed patients, whose skin nevertheless was
sound and clean, were cured quickly and permanently after a few baths whose
medicinal constituents (by, chance) were homœopathically related. On the
other hand, the mineral baths very often brought on increased injury with
patients, whose eruptions on the skin were suppressed. After a brief period
of well-being, the life principle allowed the inner, uncured malady to
appear elsewhere, more important for life and health.
At times, instead, the ocular nerve would become paralyzed and produce
amaurosis, sometimes the crystalline lens would become clouded, hearing
lost, mania or suffocating asthma would follow or an apoplexy would end the
sufferings of the deluded patient.
A fundamental principle of the homœopathic physician (which distinguishes
him from every physician of all older schools) is this, that he never
employs for any patient a medicine, whose effects on the healthy human has
not previously been carefully proven and thus made known to him (Aph 20,
21). To prescribe for the sick on mere conjecture of some possible
usefulness for some similar disease or from hearsay "that a remedy has
helped in such and such a disease" - such conscienceless venture the
philanthropic homœopathist will leave to the allopath. A genuine physician
and practitioner or our art will therefore never send the sick to any of the
numerous mineral baths, because almost all are unknown so far as their
accurate, positive effects on the healthy human organism is concerned, and
when misused, must be counted among the most violent and dangerous drugs. In
this way, out of a thousand sent to the most celebrated of these baths by
ignorant physicians allopathically uncured and blindly sent there perhaps
one or two are cured by chance more often return only apparently cured and
the miracle is proclaimed aloud. Hundreds, meanwhile sneak quietly away,
more or less worse and the rest remain to prepare themselves for their
eternal resting place, a fact that is verified by the presence of numerous
well-filled graveyards surrounding the most celebrated of these spas.**
** A true homœopathic physician, one who never acts without correct
fundamental principles, never gambles with the life of the sick entrusted to
him as in a lottery where the winner is in the ratio of 1 to 500 or 1000
(blanks here consisting of aggravation or death), will never expose any one
of his patients to such danger and send him for good luck to a mineral bath,
as is done so frequently by allopaths in order to get rid of the sick in an
acceptable manner spoiled by him or others.
