White Paper Healing

How is it possible for incurably ill people to recover? When patients heal completely without therapeutic treatment, doctors are faced with a mystery: the body itself makes an illness disappear. Modern medicine offers no discernible contribution to this. Such spontaneous healings occur repeatedly, as our body has its own mechanisms to overcome illness and injury. Alternative healing methods can support these self-healing powers.

Kurt Langbein, one of the most renowned medical journalists and a former cancer patient himself, poses the question: How does healing work and what role does our psyche play in it? Empathetic and open to the wonders of life, yet scientifically grounded, he seeks answers to the questions of how one can encourage the body to heal itself and what role conventional medicine and healers play in this process.
