machines etc

...My colleagues cannot understand why I do not
use the machine to help choose remedies and select potency (something else
that kinesiologists often do). I have thought about this (and have tried
occasionally) but have never been happy about it.
How we receive a case influences what we are told, observation of the
patient and of our own response to the patient are very much part of it.
Although we are there as objective observers we are also an integral part of
the process, so we are observing ourselves, our patient and our interaction.
The use of a diagnostic machine re-defines the nature of the consultation in
this and it also shifts the emphasis of the diagnosis onto organ and
meridian function. This approach can be very useful in many cases but is
only one of many ways into a case open to a homeopath. Once the machine is
introduced I suspect the other doors would close and be hard to re-open.
In terms of treatment as opposed to diagnosis, again, although our remedies
have independent validity/effectiveness. we will often be giving our
patients more than that. How often have you noticed that a patient feels
much better after a consultation but before the remedy arrives in the post!
Many of our patients have been subjected to tests and diagnoses ad nauseam
and really appreciate being listened to and being placed at the centre of
their own 'case'....

Dear Theresa,
Thanks so much for your eloquent words. I feel that the process of case
receiving and finding the remedy becomes a sacred trust, one soul being
listened to and understood by another. The growth of consciousness that is
an outcome of such in-depth consultation cannot be replaced by mechanical
diagnosis. The idea of this is repugnant to me, although I am grateful to
have access to the huge body of materia medica in my computer programs to
exhaustively search out the most precise remedy match for each individual.
