Additional Approaches In Counselling
German New Medicine
Dr. Hamer, a physician who initially was an internist, began to develop the German New Medicine (GNM) approach in 1974. It originated following the shooting and subsequent death of his son and then six months later Dr. Hamer was diagnosed with testicular cancer. Using scientific evidence from thousands of CT scans Dr. Hamer has spent his career proving that when a shock happens-such as the death of his son-- the shock impacts the psyche, then into a specific part of the brain depending on the type of incident, and the person's values and beliefs, and then into a specific part of the body.
Knowing the link between a shock, the psyche, the brain and the body helps you understand how to resolve, or at least lessen the health impact of a shock on the body. You can work collaboratively with a registered psychologist and a medical professional to find ways to regain some or all of your health. For example, Dr. Hamer has found a link between a separation shock, feelings of being stuck, and ADHD. Counselling may ease the impact of the separation shock and stuck feelings, some of which likely occurred in childhood such as through hospitalization when mom could not be in the hospital 24/7 and when the child was forced to stay in the hospital. Easing this separation shock and feelings of stuckness may also ease some of the underlying feelings of being unsettled that contribute to attention deficit, impulsivity and hyperactivity.
GNM research suggests that we need to resolve emotional shocks as soon as possible so that they do not eventually result in possibly developing a major or minor health problem.
