Biotherapeutic Drainage is a philosophy and approach to treatment that has been used in Europe for over 100 years.  When the body becomes overburdened, as is common in our society, it is unable to properly eliminate wastes and toxins.  They are then stored in the body, disrupting normal healthy physiology, leading to chronic illnesses and symptoms.  Biotherapeutic drainage uses lifestyle habits, homeopathic remedies, Unda numbered compounds, and other therapies to stimulate the body to rid itself of accumulated wastes and toxins and restore normal healthy physiology.  For this to happen, the routes of removal, called emunctories, must first be open and efficient.

Unlike conventional palliative medicine, biotherapeutic drainage supports the body to self regulate and heal itself.   Forcing the release of these stored toxins too quickly can overwhelm the body, causing suffering and harm.  Biotherapeutic drainage aims to gradually open the body’s drains so it can rid itself of wastes and toxins as it is able to, without overwhelming the system.  Biotherapeutic drainage allows for deep and lasting healing.

Analogy

If we were snowed in our house all winter and were not able to take out the garbage, we would need to find a place to put it.  When that became full, we would need to find another place to use as storage.  Over time, this would change the dynamics of certain rooms.  An overgrowth of pests would also be likely.  Only spraying air freshener would not solve the problem.  We can try to force the trash through the snow, but if there is not an opening it will stay in the house.

To clean and restore the house, the doorways would need to be cleared so the garbage can be removed.   Just taking out the trash is not enough to return the house to normal.  It is only a matter of time before remnants of the trash fester and pests return if we do not do a thorough cleaning: move the furniture, wash the walls, shampoo the carpets, mop the floors, etc. For lasting healing to occur, we must begin by removing toxins from the body before damaged tissues and organs can be rebuilt.
