Biological terrain or internal milieu treatment

What is biological terrain therapy, and how does it work?

The biological terrain, which the French physiologist Claude Bernard called the milieu intérieur, represents the internal environment of a living organism, and its constancy is essential for the organism's survival. Initially, Bernard considered the internal medium to be composed of blood, whose temperature and blood sugar levels were closely controlled by vasomotor nerves and glycogen, respectively. This led to the idea of homeostasis, or regulation.

The role of the cellular environment in chronic diseases and recovery

The French doctor, René Quinton, taking Bernard's concepts further, declared that life originated from the sea and evolved and left the oceans because it possessed an internal medium to transport seawater—the blood—enclosed, like a sack, by the skin. Like others before him, Quinton observed that seawater and our blood were very similar and treated individuals with gigantic blooms of fluid plankton off the French coast.

Those plankton blooms grew to enormous proportions and created gigantic vortices that extracted minerals from the ocean floor. Finally, he established free clinics throughout Europe, treating thousands of people with his special fluid derived from plankton known as Quinton Marine Plasma (QMP).

In response to Quinton's contribution to the study of terrain, the French doctor Antoine Bechamp argued that our blood is not a liquid, but rather a fluid tissue. Microzymas, also known as micro-organisms, feed and grow according to their internal conditions. As an independent living element, microzymas serve as the foundation for all forms of biological orgaIn healthy internal environments, microbes thrive and provide benefits to their host; however, environments within the body that show disease cause microzyma to grow into bacteria, molds, fungi, and yeasts, which can cause problems by generating disease symptoms that damage and decompose the affected organism.

Dr. Gunther Enderlein, a German zoologist and bacteriologist, expanded this idea of pleomorphism. Enderlein discovered that microorganisms exhibit cyclical manifestations—changes in morphology—that depend on the internal environmental conditions of the host organism. When conditions inside the body turn bad, disease forms appear, which can lead to the development of health problems that damage the affected cells, tissues, and organs.

Ultimately, an imbalanced terrain can lead to serious consequences such as debilitating disease processes. For this reason, it is essential to identify the source of your imbalance and restore your terrain to its optimal homeostatic state.

Types of biological/milieu internal therapies

Swiss Biological Medicine

Dr. Thomas Rau, the father of Swiss Biological Medicine, explains that repairing the internal environment is fundamental to restoring health. The internal environment includes blood, lymph, and the fluids surrounding our cells, and its condition, shown by pH (acidity) and oxygen levels in the tissues, affects whether beneficial or harmful processes occur in the body.

The nutritional state within this internal environment is the main determinant for health or disease processes, and bacteria are attracted to sick cells, tissues, and organs as scavengers, but not as causes of the disease. Biological medicine focuses on caring for the internal environment of the body to restore metabolic processes to their normal functioning and to help mitochondria, which are essential for generating the necessary energy, function healthily.

In biological medicine, nutrition is one of its fundamental treatment strategies because all people require energy for their survival, and the energy of the world/universe is stored in food through sunlight, soil, and water. Healthy and organic foods that have undergone minimal modern industrial processing are the most suitable for restoring and maintaining lost health. The phrase "We are what we eat" perfectly captures the significance and potency found in properly cultivated foods and clean water.

Wahls Protocol

Her motivation arose from her personal experience with multiple sclerosis (MS). Dr. Wahls created a protocol as a holistic framework that combines dietary choices, lifestyle changes, and specific nutritional therapies to promote the body's natural healing processes, rebalancing the terrain. The Wahls Protocol aims to empower people with autoimmune conditions to monitor their health and possibly reduce symptoms, all while increasing energy and well-being.

As a dietary intervention, the Wahls Protocol focuses on nutrient-dense foods, including colorful fruits and vegetables, lean meats, healthy fats, and gluten-free grains. The approach includes three levels of dietary restrictions, specific supplements to address any nutrient deficiencies, and a healthy lifestyle with exercise and stress management.

The Wahls Protocol diet is achieved by selecting nutrient-dense foods, reducing inflammation with an anti-inflammatory eating habit, supplementing nutritional deficiencies, adding regular exercise, and focusing on stress management. It encourages the consumption of nutrient-dense foods, such as fruits and vegetables, as well as foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids.

Here are some of the possible health benefits of following the Wahls Protocol:

  • Improved national intake
  • Reduced inflammation
  • Weight Management
  • Increased energy
  • Cardiovascular health
  • Better digestive health
  • Enhanced mental health
  • Stress reduction

Balancing the terrain with homeopathy

Occasionally, we are not fully aware of the source of our imbalance. In such cases, homeopathy can work on the terrain imbalance at an energetic level. Rubimed is a homeopathic methodology created by the German doctor Dr. Reimar Banis, MD, ND, used to treat interrelated emotional and physical problems.

The PSE asserts that the health and vitality of the body-mind depend on the flow of subtle energies, and whenever the flow of energy is reduced, symptoms such as fatigue, irritability, anger, depression, and many other negative feelings may appear, which can result in the onset of physical symptoms. Additionally, Banis argues that unresolved emotional conflicts can produce energy blockages that reduce/obstruct the harmonious flow of energy throughout the body-mind, contributing to mental/emotional/physical disorders.

The Rubimed homeopathic remedies consist of combinations of various individual remedies that overlap and complement each other. Unlike traditional homeopathy, which selects remedies based on signs and symptoms, Rubimed remedies are chosen using applied kinesiology, trusting that the body's natural intelligence knows what it needs.

The remedies work by helping to reduce energy blockages, which in turn leads to a reduction in symptoms. However, new problems may arise as the mind-body, like the layers of an onion, sheds one layer after another, which, over time, can result in a patient experiencing greater mental clarity, vitality, and a sense of well-being.

Balance the autonomic nervous system

EBOO is a therapeutic technique that involves extracting blood from one arm, filtering it, ozonating it, oxygenating it, and then retu

The autonomic nervous system is directly affected by our thoughts and emotions, which in turn affect the digestive, cardiovascular, neurological, immunological, and other processes of the body. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that positive thoughts and emotions, generated by a sense of acceptance, appreciation, gratitude, and love, promote order and balance in the autonomic nervous system (ANS).

However, negative thoughts and emotions cause a disorder in the ANS that can lead to feelings of loneliness, anger, hostility, and other emotions that promote the development of diseases. The use of tests for heart rate variability provides a window to understand how a person copes with stress, which is important because chronically stressed organic systems can potentially manifest symptoms related to disease processes.

rning it to the body. Ozone is known for its potential antimicrobial properties and immune system-stimulating effects. Various medical contexts use EBOO, particularly when they desire enhanced oxygenation effects.

EBOO elevates cellular oxygen utilization, accelerates cellular recovery, optimizes blood circulation, cleanses the blood, eliminates toxins, boosts immunity, reduces systemic pain, and decreases inflammation. EBOO activates the immune system to combat harmful bacteria, fungi, and viruses, promoting an immune response against infectious diseases. It is a specialized variant of intravenous ozone therapy, which uses a filter to cleanse the blood while ozonating it and ultimately oxygenating it. The filtration system effectively segregates harmful agents, including various toxins, pesticides, viruses, mold, fungi, biofilm, and chemicals.

Balancing chemical messengers

Hormones are essential chemical messengers for balancing the biological terrain. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, or BHRT, is a therapeutic approach that uses hormones structurally similar to those the body naturally releases. When dosed properly, they have few side effects because the body's immune system does not identify them as foreign. When hormone production decreases with age or illness, many people may begin to develop symptoms.

How does terrain therapy support detoxification and immune balance?

Almost 100 years ago, German surgeons Walter and Ferdinand Huneke theorized that many diseases arose from dysregulation or damage to the nervous system. As a result, the Huneke brothers discovered that they could reduce the symptoms of chronic diseases and pain by injecting procaine—a local anesthetic—into peripheral nerves, scars, autonomic ganglia, glands, trigger points, and tissues.

Neural therapy is based on the belief that any surgery, injury, or infection can damage the autonomic nervous system (ANS), leading to ongoing problems with the electrical or chemical functioning of tissues. Nowadays, neural therapy continues to focus on repairing a dysfunctional ANS (autonomic nervous system). European doctors have been widely using this therapy for about 50 years, and it is slowly making its way into American medicine.

There are many benefits of neural therapy:

  • Reduces chronic pain
  • Reduces inflammation and swelling
  • Improves blood circulation
  • Enhances nerve function and communication
  • Facilitates the healing of injured tissues
  • Regulates autonomic nervous system activity
  • Addresses trigger points and muscle tension
  • Promotes overall relaxation and stress reduction
