The Six Phase Table
•Subdivided into three blocks•Each block has two phases
Humoral phases:•Excretion•Inflammation
Matrix phases:•Deposition•Impregnation Cellular phases:
•Degeneration•Dedifferentiation
The Humoral Phases
• Intracellular systems are not disturbed
• Defensive system is intact
• Homotoxins can be easily drained
• Inflammation plays a key role
Excretion Phase
• Body’s attempt to rid itself of toxins
• External or exocrine secretion of a product to the “outside”
• Drainage by means of bonding, dispersion, or dissolving the contaminants in secretory products
Excretion Phase
Treatment strategy:
• Open the emunctories
• Avoid creating blockades to healing
• Support excretion with constitutional therapy (singles, nosodes)
• Dietary support
Gastroesophageal Reflux
Symptoms:
• “Heartburn” 30-60 min after eating
• Worse lying down, increased abdominal pressure, better sitting upright
• Nocturnal regurgitation, cough, dyspnea, aspiration
Gastroesophageal Reflux
Differential diagnosis:• Angina pectoris• Myocardial infarction• Gastroduodenal ulcer• Esophagitis/esophageal ulcer
Complications:• Esophagitis, stricture, esophageal ulcer
Gastroesophageal Reflux
Conventional treatment:
