The more toxic one's systems are, the more severe the detoxification, or healing crisis.
Many acute reactions, while uncomfortable, even painful, can be a sign of a healthy body throwing off its diseased state.
The healing crisis is any of a wide range of cute symptoms which may occur during the course of healing.
In holistic medicine, crisis has its original meaning: a turning point; the turning point from disease to health.
So though, on first inspection it might seem that the treatment is not working, or is even making the client worse, these symptoms are a signal that the innate healing ability has been stimulated and healing is taking place.
This range of symptoms may be physical, emotional and mental.
* General fatigue * Increased urination *Raised temperature * Body odour
* Chills/ Coughs * Pains/Aches *Perspiration * Fever
* Diarrhoea * Constipation * Skin dischargers * Coldness
* Vivid dreams * Emotional irritation * Restlessness * Nausea
* Dizziness * Vertigo * Dischargers *Headaches
* Muscular pains * Anger * Sadness * Laughter
This reactions to the treatment MAY or MAY NOT happen. If a reaction occurs, will vary according to the individual.
Such reactions are temporary and can occur immediately, or within several days, or even several weeks of a detox.
The worst of the symptoms lasts as little as a few hours or as long as three or four days.The common pattern is for the client to reach a plateau, followed by a healing crisis, again building to a plateau.
Remember that complementary medicine will address the root cause of the disease and symptoms might get worse before getting better.
IMPORTANT: Always ensure your health by having a through medical check up.Do not assume that if you have any of the above symptoms that you are in a healing crisis. You may not be in a healing process, you may have a medical health problem.
