Dear Friends

I know that this is off-topic, but I do believe that it will help in case
management of not only cancer, but other diseases as well.
Enjoy!

The New Medicine of Dr Hamer

by Walter Last
Dr Hamer had an exceptionally high success rate with his cancer therapy, by
far the highest I have seen of any therapy. During one of several trials of
the persecuted Dr Hamer the public prosecutor had to admit that after 4 to 5
years 6,000 out of 6,500 patients with mostly advanced cancer were still
alive. That is over 90%, almost a reversal of the results to be expected
after conventional treatment of advanced conditions.
Dr Hamer started his cancer research when he developed testicle cancer after
his son was shot dead. He wondered if his son’s death was the cause of his
cancer. Subsequently he investigated and documented over 15,000 cases of
cancer and always found the following characteristics to be present, which
he termed the Iron Rules of Cancer.
The Iron Rules of Cancer

1. Every cancer and related disease starts as a DHS that is a Dirk Hamer
Syndrome, which is a serious, acute-dramatic and isolating
conflict-shock-experience. It manifests simultaneously on three levels,
psyche, brain and organ.
2. The theme of the psychic conflict determines the location of the focus or
HAMER Herd in the brain, and the location of the cancer in the organ.

3. The course of the psychic conflict correlates with the development of the
HAMER Herd in the brain, and the course of the cancer in the organ.

At the moment of the conflict-shock a short circuit occurs in a
pre-determined place of the brain. This can be photographed with
computed-tomography (CT) and looks like concentric rings on a shooting
target or like the surface of water after a stone has been dropped into it.
Later on, if the conflict becomes resolved, the CT image changes, an edema
develops and finally scar tissue.
How specific and precisely located these brain lesions are may be seen from
the following. After a professional lecture a doctor handed him the brain
CT of a patient and asked to explain it. From this Dr Hamer diagnosed the
patient to have a fresh bleeding bladder carcinoma in the healing phase, an
old prostate carcinoma, diabetes, an old lung carcinoma and sensory
paralysis in a specific area, in addition to the corresponding emotional
conflicts.
Amazingly, Dr Hamer was able to show that at the same time as the concentric
brain lesion appears also the target organ CT may show such a concentric
lesion. According to Dr Hamer this happens instantly when the psychic shock
hits the subconscious level and this same second is the start of cancer.
However, also other diseases can be caused by the same mechanism. How severe
a disease becomes may depend on other psychological, energetic and
nutritional factors but its nature and location are determined by the
content of the conflict shock.
Hamer believes that the correlation between key emotional shock events, the
target brain areas and the related organs has developed as an adaptation of
our human evolution from similar programs in the animal world. When we
unexpectedly experience emotional distress, an emergency repair program is
set in motion, a biological conflict program with the aim of returning the
individual to normal. Such programs can even apply to families or other
groups.
Hamer gives the following example. A mother sees her child in a bad
accident. In evolutionary terms small children recover faster when they
receive extra milk. Therefore, the biological conflict program tries to
stimulate milk production by increasing the number of breast cells. If the
mother is right-handed, that will instantly cause the appearance of a Hamer
Herd in a specific part of her right brain, which in turn relates to the
left breast. When the child is well again, conflict resolution begins and
extra milk is no longer needed. The mother gets a benign form of
tuberculosis in that breast which breaks up the excess breast cells.
However, if the mycobacteria required for this are lacking, then the area
may just calcify and remain as a dormant tumor.
The same process applies also to animals. A sheep that loses its lamb to a
wolf is prone to develop teat cancer, the side depends on whether it is
right or left footed. However, commonly the sheep resolves this conflict by
bearing another lamb.
The following example may illustrate the original survival value of this
mechanism. Lets assume a lion chases an antelope. The antelope must
immediately mobilize all its resources to survive. The sympathetic nervous
system takes over and in addition a specific brain center becomes active
that stimulates lung activity. After the successful escape the animal rests
and the parasympathetic nervous system becomes dominant for a while to
normalize body functions.
If instead a human gets a cancer diagnosis, even if the diagnosis is wrong,
the same biological program is set in motion by the same fear of death that
helped the animal to escape. The stress level jumps and the brain-lung
connection is activated but now there is nowhere to run. Until the conflict
is resolved, which may take years, there will be constant stress as well as
brain-induced stimulation of lung activity, which now takes the form of
increasing lung capacity by the incessant division of cells.
This process can only be stopped by switching off the trigger in the brain
through defusing the original conflict shock. This happens when the patient
subsequently has surgery or natural therapy, which he or she fully believes
will lead to a cure. However, the same procedure in a patient who has doubts
about its effectiveness will leave the conflict unresolved and the disease
to progress. Thanks to Dr Hamer’s work, this is no longer just an
unsubstantiated assumption but rather scientific fact that can be verified
anytime with a CT brain scan.
The selection of the conflict focus occurs by subconscious association. For
instance biological conflicts involving water but also other fluids, such as
milk or oil, lead to kidney cancer, fear of death to lung cancer and
psychologically swallowing a bigger chunk then we can digest to stomach or
intestinal cancer.
Originally, in the animal world, it really was a big chunk of food, but for
us it may be a financial over-commitment or any other obligation that we
have taken on and cannot fulfill. However, the target focus is not
determined by the event itself, but rather by the psychological significance
that it has for us at the time of the event.
Hamer illustrates this with another example, a woman who finds her husband
in bed with another female. As a sexual frustration conflict it causes
uterus cancer. If she instead experiences it as a partner conflict, then in
a right-handed woman it leads to cancer of the right breast. If the conflict
feeling is fear and revulsion then it causes hypoglycemia and with lack of
self-worth cancer may develop in the pubic bone.
If the lack of self-worth had been due to a failure in sportsmanship rather
than being sexually related, then the problem would have arisen in an arm or
leg instead or possibly in the fingers or shoulder.

Other typical situations that may lead to biological conflicts are loss
situations, loss of a loved one, of a job, a valued possession or a
territory.
Dr Hamer believes that most metastases or secondary tumors are caused by the
cancer-fear or death-fear resulting from the patient given the cancer
diagnosis or a negative prognosis. However, also in this case the resulting
conflict shock may not be fear of death but rather anger, resentment or a
separation conflict from partner or children and then tumors would appear in
different places. Also a diagnosis of colon cancer commonly leads to liver
cancer because of a subconscious fear of starvation.
Generally hopelessness, despair and meaninglessness create chronic stress,
which prevent the healing from cancer and other diseases but they are not
the cause. According to Hamer the real cause of cancer and other diseases is
an unexpected traumatic shock for which we are emotionally unprepared. The
following list shows some of the relationships between conflict emotions and
target organs.
Adrenal cortex - Wrong direction, gone astray

Bladder - Ugly conflict, dirty tricks

Bone – Lack of self-worth, inferiority feeling

Breast milk gland – Involving care or disharmony

Breast milk duct - Separation conflict

Breast, left (right-handed) – Conflict concerning child, home, mother

Breast, right (right-handed) – Conflict with partner or others

Bronchials – Territorial conflict

Cervix – Severe frustration

Colon – Ugly indigestible conflict

Esophagus – Cannot have it or swallow it

Gall Bladder - Rivalry conflict

Heart – Perpetual conflict

Intestines - Indigestible chunk of anger

Kidneys – Not wanting to live, water or fluid conflict

Larynx - Conflict of fear and fright

Liver – Fear of starvation

Lung – Fear of dying or suffocation, including fear for someone else

Lymph glands – Loss of self-worth associated with the location

Melanoma – feeling dirty, soiled, defiled

Middle ear – Not being able to get some vital information

Mouth - Cannot chew or hold it

Pancreas – Anxiety-anger conflict with family members, inheritance

Prostate – Ugly conflict with sexual connections or connotations

Rectum – Fear of being useless

Skin – Loss of integrity

Spleen – Shock of being physically or emotionally wounded

Stomach – Indigestible anger, swallowed too much

Testes and Ovaries – Loss conflict

Thyroid – Feeling powerless

Uterus – Sexual conflict
With some other diseases we have for:

Diabetes and hypoglycemia: A right-handed female develops hypoglycemia from
anxiety and revulsion, if left-handed she develops insulin-dependent
diabetes. A right-handed male develops insulin-diabetes from a conflict of
resisting or struggling against something, if left-handed he develops
hypoglycemia.
Heart infarct: fight for territory or its content.

Hemorrhoids: both, a right-handed woman with an identity conflict and also a
left-handed man with territorial anger in the healing phase will get
hemorrhoids.

Multiple sclerosis and Paralysis: inability to escape or continue on or to
hold on to or not knowing what to do.

Facial paralysis: fear of losing face, having been made a laughing stock.

Psoriasis involves separation conflict concerning mother, father, family,
home, friends or pets.

Psychoses of all kinds have one or more active Hamer Herds in each of the
two parts of the brain.

Vitiligo, Leukoderma: ugly or brutal separation conflict.
In regard to AIDS Dr Hamer observes that no one ever died of AIDS without
having previously been told that they are HIV positive or believe that they
are. The implication is that just as with cancer, it is the negative
perception associated with AIDS that causes its devastating effect.
Left-handed individuals develop problems on opposite sides to genuine
right-handed individuals. Handedness can be tested by observing which hand
is on top when clapping; this is the leading hand. With right-handedness all
muscles at the right side of the body are involved with partners and
possibly other individuals and all left-sided muscles with children or the
own mother. These conditions may change with hormonal changes as with the
birth control pill or menopause.
The Healing Phase
The start of a DHS or conflict-shock experience is different from other
conflicts that we experience in our daily lives. It causes a continuous
stress resulting in a tendency to develop cold hands and feet, lack of
appetite and weight loss, sleeplessness and dwelling all the time on the
conflict content. If the conflict does not become resolved soon, the
long-lasting stress will lead to specific symptoms and the development of
cancer or another disease.
When the conflict resolves, the patient is no longer occupied with the
conflict content, the appetite returns, hands are warm again and also normal
sleep returns, but there may also be weakness, fatigue and a need to rest.
These effect show that the parasympathetic nervous system is now in control.
This is the beginning of the healing phase, which can be long and difficult.
During the first part of the healing phase there are water retention and
inflammations but the tumor stops growing. This eventually leads to a
healing crisis, which Hamer calls an epileptic or epileptoid crisis because
it is caused by an edema in the Hamer Herd brain lesion. It shows unique
symptoms for each illness.
After this the body starts to expel the accumulated water, the patient
gradually regains strength and body functions become normal. Now the
connective tissue in the brain, the glia, starts repairing the Hamer Herd.
This may be interpreted by conventional radiologists as a fast-growing brain
tumor and treated accordingly. Hamer writes that real brain tumors do not
exist, as nerve cells in the brain cannot divide.
Hamer estimates that 99% of brain events, such as strokes, bleeding into the
brain, cysts and tumors are due to healing events of Hamer Herds and with
this temporary and self-limiting unless there is inappropriate medical
intervention. The most important support in these situations is the
reduction of any brain edema.
During the healing crisis the patient may for a short time re-experience the
original psychological conflict with cold hands and cold sweat. This serves
to suppress and eliminate the edema in the brain lesion, which then allows
other body conditions to normalize. The main danger point is just before the
end of the healing crisis when it will become apparent if the body is strong
enough to eliminate the disease. In difficult cases with long or strong
conflict duration massive brain edema may develop for which Hamer uses
cortisone injections. In natural therapy we use an assortment of urea and
anti-inflammatory therapies instead.
Urea has strong diuretic properties and an excellent effect in cases of
dangerously high fluid pressure in the brain. Generally 20 g of urea are
used 2 to 5 times daily. One life-threatening case has been described of a
massive “brain tumor” re-growth that completely disappeared within 2 hours
after receiving 256 ml of 30% urea (described in Your Own Perfect Medicine
by Martha Christy, Future Med). This report clearly shows that the presumed
brain tumor in fact was a massive edema as postulated in the New Medicine.
What Hamer calls the epilepsy crisis may be experienced by the patient as a
heart attack, lung embolism, hepatitis or a lung infection. Generally,
during the healing phase, the patient will have more discomfort than when
the tumor was actively growing. In the first part of the healing phase most
problems are due to water retention, inflammations and swelling of tissues
that can cause a lot of pain. Hamer regards edema, whether found in the
brain or in an organ, as positive, a sign of healing.
Tissue Repair
After the healing crisis adeno-carcinomas are removed by fungi and
mycobacteria while hepatitis virus may in addition help to regenerate the
liver. At this stage bacteria, viruses and fungi that help to break down the
tumors and repair damaged tissues also cause inflammation, pain and fever.
If you find it odd that Hamer regards microbes as essential friends and
helpers in the healing of cancer, he has made an even more surprising
discovery. In his ontogenetic system of tumors and cancer equivalent
diseases he distinguishes between two opposite processes during the active
conflict phase. Depending on the location of the Hamer Herd in the brain,
there may be either cell proliferation or cell destruction.
The first group has cell proliferation and tumor growth during the conflict
phase and then removes excess cells with the help of microbes during the
healing phase. The other group causes cell destruction during the conflict
phase resulting in ulcers, necroses and tissue holes affecting for instance
bones (osteoporosis), kidneys, spleen or ovaries.
During the healing phase, this second group tries to fill in the created
holes through cell proliferation. Tissue necroses and osteolyses (dissolved
bone) are now repaired by bacteria that first form abscesses, which are then
filled in with scar tissue and later with granulating tissue to form
osteosarcoma, lymphoma, fibroma and healing cysts. Also leukemia commonly
occurs during the healing phase, as after bone marrow damage from radiation,
chemicals or bone cancer.
According to Hamer these conditions are generally self-limiting and only get
out of control when additional conflict shocks occur or the body is too old
or weak or through the methods of conventional medicine. In contrast,
natural healing methods aim to support body and mind during this trying
time. Most healings proceed without major problems, but about 10% need the
full support of an experienced therapist, especially at the time of the
healing crisis.
Healing the Psychic Conflict
The main task in every case of cancer is to find the original emotional
shock experience and make sure that it has been healed or is being healed.
In many case it will have corrected itself and the patient suffers from an
effect of the healing phase.
For instance, someone may have lost a farm or business but has now started
another satisfying venture or hobby. As after-effect there may now be a
tumor that gradually becomes dormant or eventually disintegrates. About 40%
of tumors discovered during routine medical investigations are said to be
old and harmless, that is dormant and calcified. However, complications may
still arise if medical intervention now instills a fear of death conflict
shock that induces the same or another tumor to grow.
Nevertheless, in other cases the original conflict may still be active or
there may be a second active conflict. As we do not know, we have to probe
in every case to find the original and any other conflicts. We need to think
back, especially one to two years before our problem started and analyze our
emotional history during this time as well as before and after. Also
meditation and regression therapy may be useful to discover conflict shocks.
If we still have a strong emotional response when we discover the content of
the conflict, then we can be sure that it is still unresolved. If at all
possible it is best to solve it in a natural way. For instance if it was
caused by losing a partner, then find someone new; if you lost a child,
become pregnant again or adopt a child or buy a pet. Cancer does not
continue to grow after the third month as pregnancy has priority.
If a natural solution is not possible, then use guided imagery either on
your own or with the help of a partner or a suitable therapist. In a relaxed
and meditative state re-create and re-experience the conflict as intensely
as you can but then substitute a desirable or acceptable outcome. Create and
experience this new outcome as vividly and detailed as possible, see it,
feel it and possibly even hear and smell it. The original experience may
also have imprinted you with the memories of unrelated details of your
ordeal (tracks) to which you may now react with allergies. You may try to
overcome these in the same way with guided imagery.
If neither of these methods is possible because you feel that you have to
continue your present duties or ordeal for whatever reason, then only
increased spiritual understanding and acceptance may be able to help. In
either case, be aware of your vulnerabilities and avoid any further conflict
shocks but if one does happen, get it out of your system is soon as
possible.
In addition, I firmly believe that all active conflicts will be terminated
and the healing phase begin when we are able to strongly feel love and
forgiveness within ourselves and then radiate it to all others but
especially to anyone who we feel might have wronged us. We can further ease
the healing phase by expecting it to be short and mild and lead to full
recovery.

According to Hamer, animals in the wild get cancer from the same shock
programs as we do. However, 80 to 90% survive and do not notice much because
the healing phase can take its natural course. Those that die are mainly old
animals that cannot resolve a conflict, such as regaining their territory
from a rival or replacing a lost cub.

It is different in our society as the natural healing process is routinely
interfered with. It starts with getting tranquilizers or antidepressants
during the active conflict phase, which prevent us from fighting back and
regaining our territory. This may then lead to a cancer diagnosis that
causes an additional active conflict and ends with morphine, which totally
disables our healing responses.

While Hamer does not believe that health foods, remedies, cleansing or
healthy living in general can cure cancer, these certainly can be important
in order to survive the ordeals of the healing phase. Actually, Hamer
regards all diseases as consisting of two phases, initially with active
conflict followed (if possible) by a healing phase that reverses the
conflict program. He does not call them diseases anymore but rather special
biological programs. In all he is stated to have worked with over 31,000
patients and found his theories confirmed in every single case without
exception. Hamer claims that overall the New Medicine has a 95% success rate
with cancer.
Persecution
Siemens, the manufacturers of the CT equipment have independently verified
the existence of the Hamer Herds in the brain. Furthermore, their diagnostic
significance was confirmed in 1998 at the University of TRNAVA in Slovakia.
Nevertheless, Dr Hamer faced exceptional persecution.
Under German law the right to practice medicine can be withdrawn if the
doctor has diminished mental abilities. This law was used in 1986 by a
German district court to withdraw his right to practice. As proof of Hamer’s
inadequate mental condition the court stated that he was not wiling to
retract his theories and swear allegiance to the principles of orthodox
medicine. Even worse, the court had discovered evidence that he was
incapable of converting back to the principles of orthodox medicine: he
tried to convince a group of prominent professors of the correctness of his
theories only one month before the court case! One year later the same
court requested a psychiatric assessment of his mental abilities, which
Hamer refused. A court-appointed psychiatrist, without ever seeing him,
diagnosed him anyway as being a psychopath.
In 1997 Dr Hamer was arrested and jailed for 18 months under an obscure
natural therapy law introduced under Adolf Hitler to suppress Gypsies. His
crime was that he had given free health advice to some individuals who had
asked him for his opinion. The public prosecutor had openly stated that all
means must be used to remove Hamer from society. Compare this to a delay of
the court case for 13 years and then a sentence of only 6 months on
probation for the killer of his son. This mild sentence may have something
to do with the accused being the Prince of Savoy, the son of the last King
of Italy.
Since 1999 Dr Hamer lives in Spain because courts in Germany, Austria,
France and Switzerland now want to try him for any cancer patient who died
following his advice. According to this reasoning he is a mass murderer
because he denied cancer patients the supposedly safe and effective
treatment offered by orthodox medicine. There is also a private court case
pending against him for a large sum of money because he advised a patient
against having chemotherapy. This witch-hunt has been compared to the fate
of Dr Semmelweis who at the age of 47 died in a mental asylum for suggesting
that surgeons wash their hands before operations.

Dr Hamer survived 8 assassination attempts, and the mass media in Germany
treat him as a deranged criminal. While many individual doctors, including
professors of medicine, have verified the principles of the New Medicine, so
far no German university has agreed to test them, despite a court order that
the University of Tubingen conduct such tests.

Also doctors and natural therapists in Europe who practice according to the
principles of the New Medicine face persecution. In Austria, Belgium,
France, Germany and Spain authorities had started proceedings against such
doctors to take away their right to practice. Court cases have been going on
for years. Only courts in Spain adopted the enlightened position that it
was not their role to decide between conflicting medical theories and
therapies. This vicious response of the establishment is understandable
because widespread knowledge and application of the New Medicine would mean
the end of the medical-pharmaceutical complex.
However, in 2001 a prominent neurologist openly defended Dr Hamer by
publishing a book about the New Medicine and demanding that his theories be
officially tested. Because Dr Therese von Schwarzenberg also belongs to the
high nobility, the mass media are in a bind on what position to take on
this. Until now they have only reported about Dr Hamer in the most
derogative ways and here is now that high profile personality who claims
that Hamer is right and deserves a Nobel Price! Nevertheless, the official
response of prominent oncologists still remains that it is totally absurd to
assume emotions could be important in the cause and cure of cancer and,
therefore, Dr Hamer’s claims must not be tested.
Comment
My own understanding and experience leave no doubt about the primary
importance of our emotions and beliefs in the cause and cure of our
diseases. Furthermore, the writings of Dr Hamer give the impression of a
serious and meticulous researcher whose findings have been confirmed by
various scientific institutions and medical practitioners, including
professors of medicine. Only those continue to denounce him who refuse to
look at his evidence.
Therefore I have no doubt about the validity of his basic premise, namely
that specific diseases and in particular cancers are associated with visible
lesions in specific locations of the brain as well as specific psychological
experiences. His postulated two-part disease process in which the healing
phase is a reversal of the original disease conditions is a basic concept of
natural therapies.
However, Dr Hamer appears reluctant to consider extending or modifying his
theory to take other possibilities into account. Basically Dr Hamer
postulates a one-way communication from psyche to organ via the brain. I
suggest instead a two-way communication from psyche to organ as well as from
organ back to brain and psyche.
I like to explain this on an example. I understand that the rate of death
from breast cancer in China is one in 10,000 compared to about one in 10 in
most Western countries. Professor Jane Planet realized that unlike western
and westernised women the Chinese do not use animal milk or related
products. At this stage she had the fifth recurrence of her breast cancer
and had been given up to die. As soon as she avoided all milk products her
tumour disappeared and for 13 years she is now free of cancer (Your Life in
Your Hands by Jane Planet, published Virgin, UK).
As the Chinese have normal rates of some other cancers, there needs to be a
special factor that causes these low breast cancer rates. Assuming that it
really is milk, I would apply the following reasoning.
Milk is high in insulin growth factor, IGF-1, which stimulates breast tissue
to grow during puberty and pregnancy. IGF-1 is also present in the meat of
dairy cows and apparently also stimulates other hormone-related cancers,
including prostate cancer. Assuming that this causes constant low-level
stimulation of breast tissue and the related brain area in milk-drinking or
dairy-consuming women, there are now 2 possibilities.
The sensitized brain areas will cause the woman to have a much stronger
emotional response than normal to any child or partner conflict, and this
causes milk-drinking women to develop more frequent breast cancers.
The second possibility is an existing sub-acute conflict situation or past
event that is still subconsciously active. The persistent combined
stimulation by a sub-acute conflict in addition to IGF-1 may cause the
gradual development of a Hamer Herd or alternatively its sudden appearance
when a certain threshold is reached.
In this way any environmental factors can be taken into consideration for
creating Hamer Herds in combination with psychological conflicts. Most
people presently have a very unhealthy lifestyle in addition to a poor
quality of inherited genes. It may well be that really healthy individuals
will not develop a Hamer Herd in response to an unexpected emotional shock
or that it will be a mild and self-healing event.
In a similar way may appropriate natural therapy directed to a diseased
organ give a message to the associated brain area that helps healing the
Hamer Herd and in time also leads to a resolution of the emotional conflict.
A confirmation of the suggested interconnectedness between emotions,
nutrients, brain and organs can be found in kinesiology. Research in muscle
testing has revealed a relationship between different nutrients and emotions
with specific muscles and organs transmitted through the system of
acupuncture meridians. However, a surprising finding was the direct
involvement of the brain. When an isotopically labeled nutrient was placed
in the back of the mouth within seconds the isotope was also detected in the
brain.
I suggest that conflict resolution may also happen in unspecific ways.
Assuming a patient receives a conflict shock due to a diagnosis of cancer,
then this conflict but possibly also the original conflict shock may
possibly be resolved if the patient fully believes and expects that the
subsequent treatment will be curable. Other possibilities have been
suggested under the heading Healing the Psychic Conflict.
The official English-language website of Dr Hamer is at www.newmedicine.ca.
However, much more information is on the German website www.pilhar.com. Dr
Hamer has written several books of which one is available in English under
the title Summary of the New Medicine.
