The Defense
Mechanism
Because patients ask me many questions regarding
their health, I felt it was quite important to
understand that true health or "dis-ease",
leading to disease within the body, starts with
one’s basic understanding of their "defense
mechanism". Most of the ideas and concepts that
I will be discussing have been taken from the
text, The Science of Homeopathy by George
Vithhoulkas. First, one should understand that
all human beings possess a defense mechanism
which constantly deals and copes with stimuli
from sources, internally and externally.
Homeostasis, a state of equilibrium or balance
within the body, is under the control of this
mechanism. For example, all environmental
influences such as pollutants, etc. are
perceived by the body through receptors on the
mental, emotional, and physical levels of
existence. Our ability to survive and exist
depends upon the body’s ability to maintain
equilibrium with a minimum of disturbance. If
the stimuli are stronger that the body’ natural
resistance, a state of imbalance takes place
which manifests as signs and symptoms. These
manifestations are expressed on either mental,
emotional or physical levels. |
| |
| Sometimes, the
symptoms or groups of symptoms are erroneously
called “diseases” when they really represent the
result of the defense mechanism to handle the
stimulus. The defense mechanism functions as a
totality. It always tries to defend the body in
the best possible manner at any given moment. As
stated, the defense mechanism acts on the mental
and emotional levels: it is not confined merely
to the immune system, endocrine system or other
mechanisms of the body. |
| You may at this
point, be asking yourself, what really is this
mechanism? This question has been asked for
centuries. For many hundreds of years,
philosophers, scientists, and healers have
believed that this mechanism is a "vital force"
possessing the intelligence and power to govern
all the processes involved in both health and
disease. It seemed obvious that some force
governs and runs the human body. This "vital
force" idea has been described throughout
history by many writers. It is an influence
which directs all aspects of life in the body.
It adapts to environmental influences, animates
the emotional life of the individual, provides
thoughts and creativity, and conducts spiritual
inspiration. |
| The vital force
clearly includes a wide variety of functions:
one aspect of the vital force which establishes
balance in states of disease is called the
"defense mechanism". |
| New concepts in
physics are beginning to be reflected in
biological science, particularly in the
electrodynamic fields of the body. Instruments
have been constructed that can directly measure
the electromagnetic fields of the body, and have
been useful in diagnosing many diseases and
imbalances within the body. Many scientists now
believe that this electromagnetic field is
analogous to the vital force. The
electromagnetic field is the interrelationship
of particles affecting each other through charge
and movement. These relationships can be defined
as "vibrations". |
| The human
organism possesses its own distinct vibration
rate. When the organism is exposed to a
stimulus, the first event to take place is an
alteration of the vibration rate to the defense
mechanism. For most routine stimuli, to which we
are exposed constantly, the defense mechanism is
able to respond with no noticeable effect on the
mental, emotional or physical levels. However,
of the stimulus of stronger than the "vital
force of the body", the defense mechanism is
called into play to counteract the stimulus. If
this did not take place, death would rapidly
ensue. |
| Before pain of
symptoms develop, there is a latent period
whereby the defense mechanism begins to adjust
to the effect of the stimulus. It may be hours,
days, weeks or even months until symptoms
manifest on the mental, emotional or physical
levels. A good example is a virus or bacteria
that manifests in several hours into a severe
emotional stress which then develops into asthma
or some other degenerative disease in six
months. |
| Understanding
the roles of the defense mechanism and "Vital
Force" (electromagnetic field) of the organism
helps us to understand that restoring balance to
the defense mechanism, and thus changing the
vibratory rate, allows the body to restore
itself to health. |

Each individual can be seen as a triangle of
well-being. If one aspect of this triangle is
out of balance, all aspects distort, creating
side effects such as physical pain, disease,
depression, fear, stress, and lack of faith.
Davis AHS will restore balance during each
session. We use energetic and bio-vibrational
therapy to bring your body, mind, and spirit
into balance. Optimum health is the goal. |

|
We have the potential for happier, healthier
lives, but most of us suffer in the past or the
future. Davis AHS helps us to live in the
present. Once The Process has started most
patients start to see changes taking place. Most
patients begin to experience inner strength, a
quiet calm, mental power, spiritual growth,
stability, more energy, tranquility, serenity,
happiness and a new found excitement for life. |

January 3, 2005 - I
have been a patient of Dr. Davis for three
years. I've had chronic neck pain for 20 years
and it has been greatly reduced. But I believe
that the reason that I come to Ridgewood once a
week (twice a week during Fashion Week and
stressful times) is because of the improvements
that Dr. Davis has made in my balance, stress,
focus, breathing, pain reduction, anxiety, and
sleep. Having Dr. Davis in my life keeps me from
having to run to a host of doctors. The only
negative is that it feels so good and works so
well that you’ll always want to come back – and
it's actually my good fortune to be able to do
so."

"Dr. Ken Davis has earned the name "Super D"
after 10 years of healing my body and soul. This
has been an unbelievable way to start the age of
50."
