Therapeutic recommendations

  • Stimulate the patient’s life forces and a feeling of lightness with “L”
    “L” stimulates the flowing vital forces and brings an experience of lightness. It also has a strong creative power in the contrasting area of the form principle. You can start with the “L” in the periphery and steadily reduce the size of it – moving over and around the abdomen – towards the center.

  • Stimulate warmth generation with “M”
    “M” is the sound which, like humming, holds a penetrating force in the human being and stimulates the generation of warmth in the direction in which it is carried out. “M” can be moved in all directions – around, on, and also with the belly.

  • The sound movements “B” and “G”
    “B” and “G” , as contrasting movements, create densification and widening of movement to release congestion.

  • “B” and “A” stimulate fluid-regulating kidney activity.

  •  “D” has a penetrating and shaping effect and strengthens digestion.

  • The sound sequence “L – M – S – U – B – E – R”
    The sounds “L – M – S – U – B – E – R”, when they are worked into the feet of a patient lying down, also have a releasing character, which causes movement right into the abdominal cavity through deepened breathing.

Case series: Topical application of Viscum album extract in keratinocyte carcinomas shows remissions 
A retrospective case series examined the safety and clinical effects of topical application of 10% lipophilic Viscum album extract (VALE) in individual cases of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and actinic keratosis (AK). The study population consisted of 55 patients with 74 skin lesions. Risk factors, concomitant therapies and diseases, adverse drug reactions to VALE and other relevant information were documented. As a result, the clinical response rate was 78% for cSCC, 70% for BCC and 71% for AK. The complete remission rates for individual lesions were 56% for cSCC, 35% for BCC and 15% for AK. Overall, the results suggest that VALE is a safe and tolerable extract, and complete and partial remissions of ceratinocyte carcinomas were observed with its use.
