In the Western World of medicine if you show up in the emergency room with a broken arm the doctor will patch up your arm and send you on your way. Rarely is there a discussion about how that particular trauma may effect other parts of one's physiology. A broken arm is a relatively mild case and it would seem that over a lifetime these traumas can really add up.

Every body has the inherent healing processes already built into the physiology. It's not rocket science or even mysterious. It is just that sometimes the body has a backlog of stresses or trauma that is not able to be processed efficiently. Remnants of trauma often remain embedded in the subtlest layers of physiology and become a functioning part of the structural physiology. These "artifacts" interfere with or interrupt the natural healing processes and ultimately result in the eventual manifestation of illness or dis-ease, both physically and emotionally-even spiritually.

This is something I have been doing a lot of work on and I am very curious to hear other people's experiences and opinions on this. If you have comments or questions I would love to hear them.

I guess my first question would be, 'how did the physical trauma occur'...before I could give an opinion, i'd have to know that. Was it an accident? Car wreck? Domestic abuse? A fight?

In my experience, doctors DO ask how the trauma occurred. If they do not have a complete picture, they cannot comprehensively treat the patient.

I have to agree, I, as an RN have always asked how this bruise occurred or that scar occurred much less how that broken bone happened. Especially if these damages are in places normally NOT seen that might indicate abuse or other abnormal situations.

I would also need more information before posting an opinion on the subject.

My one son had a few light bruises on his forearms I found out later was finger marks from grandpa playing too roughly with him, and Children and Youth came and closely assessed our home situation for weeks before the case was closed. And that was from the school following up with some faint bruises on arms.
