endobiogenic medicine society
London
The Endobiogenic Medicine Society (EMS) was created by Anna Betz, Paul Michael
and Colin Nicholls to bring awareness of endobiogenic medicine to the UK and to
provide information, organize events and offer a training platform both to the
public and to medical professionals. All three are medical herbalists who have
been training with Dr Lapraz and Dr Hedayat (see below) for many years. Their
interest in endobiogenic medicine was borne from the fact that this clinical
medicine model is based on treatment strategies that use primarily phytotherapy
(medicinal herbs or botanicals), nutrition and lifestyle changes. More
important, endobiogenic medicine gave them tools to tackle the underlying causes
of “dis-ease”, and a systematic way of approaching an individual in his or her
expression of such “dis-ease” - things that were lacking in the conventional
medical model in which they were trained. Aside from providing information,
events and training to the public and to medical professionals, EMS’s main aims
are to educate the public in order to foster self-responsibility for health
(which comes from a better understanding of one's body) and to provide access to
alternative treatment options for the increasingly complex health conditions of
our times.
