HOMEOSINIATRYThe Convergence of Homeopathy and Traditional
Chinese Medicine
Homeosiniatry…
From Homeo, denoting homeopathy
From Siniatry, denoting sinology or the study of Chinese Culture
Where cohort modalities merge:
The Big Picture Viewpoint…
Operant Principle…Irritability
Contained within any definition of life
Meaning when it is poked, it reacts
The knifepoint of convergence: Exploitation of Irritability
AcupunctureA mini stabbing
Homeopathy A mini poisoning
Homeosiniatry’s Origins The writings of homeopathy’s founder,
Samuel Hahnemann (1756-1843)
The writings of Gottfried Rademacher (1772-1850)
In the 19th century, the work of three generations of the Weihe family, German physicians and homeopaths
Homeopathy’s FounderSamuel Hahnemann
Similia similibus curentur
From Samuel Hahnemann ”… that if the remedy is chosen well, it
touches all the ill points (‘kranken Punkte’) in a curative way and they will disappear in a wonderful way.”
Hahnemann chose not to include pin-point digital palpation (so as to find the sensitive points) as part of the homeopathic diagnostic process.
Gottfried Rademacher
A German physician and homeopathic contemporary of Hahnemann who did choose to explore diagnosis according to pressure point sensitivity
Dr. Auguste Weihe (1840-1896) In support of Hahnemann the 3rd Weihe
generation physician, concluded that:
Whenever a particular homeopathic drug picture is indicated, certain points on the surface of the patient’s body become especially sensitive to digital pressure. When the individual’s appropriate remedy is administered these points lose their sensitivity
Dr. Weihe identified: …270 points
assignable to specific homeopathic symptom complexes. But he used them only in order to objectively verify his homeopathic remedy selection
Homeosiniatry in modern times
Dr. Roger de La Fuye
Clark Manning and Louis Vanrenen
Prakash Vakil
Jerry M. Kantor
Dr. Roger de La FuyeFrench acupuncturist and homeopath…
Discovered by 1947 that most of Weihe’s points coincided exactly with acu-points
Found that the associated homeopathic and acupuncture symptomatology of the points matched
Was the first doctor to treat his patients with parallel therapy, using needle acupuncture and corresponding homeopathic remedies (given orally).
Dr. Roger de La FuyeFrench acupuncturist and homeopath…
Showed that the combination was at least equal if not superior to therapy with each modality applied separately
Continued adding to Weihe’s points so that homeosiniatry now uses 482 points, 434 on Chinese meridians and 48 extra points. A current widespread practice of homeosiniatry is to inject sterile homeopathic remedies (diluted and potentized in 0.9% saline) into acu-points.

When divergent explanations converge…
A mystery to unlock
The challenge to theoreticians…
The action of an acupuncture point reflects Zang-Fu, Channels and Collaterals theory
A homeopathic remedy reflects the original substance’s position within culture, medicine, or the cosmos
On what basis might the two forms of reference be reconciled?
A Rich Vein to Mine…
The benefit to TCM:
Elucidation of theory
The benefit to homeopathy:
Enrichment of materiamedica
A case in point, Berberis (barberry)Acupuncture point
sensitivities
Tianshu, St. 25, Alarm Point of the LI
Jingmen, GB 25, Alarm Point of the Kd
Berberis’ key indicators
Abdominal swelling and rumbling gas in the colon
Kidney and gall stones
Ailments from hidden wounds
Diminished libido
Berberis’ Cohort Benefits:
For TCM:
Elucidates how a plant, barberry, and its embedded theme, “hidden psychic wounds” relates to alarm within the LI and the Kidney
For Homeopathy:
Enriches materia medica by relating the remedy-state’s pathology to TCM’s Kidney sexual function and associated fear; and Stomach/Sp associated anxiety
Clark Manning and Louis VanrenenAuthors of the 1988book
Bioenergetic Medicines East and West, Acupuncture and Homeopathy
Introduced TCM and homeopathic healing philosophies to the general public
Discussed how the materia medica of basic remedies were a fit with specific TCM diagnoses

The Tongue That Does Not Lie
Recognizes TCM’s notion that the tongue mirrors the stomach, but also the condition of the patient as a whole
Correlates the tongue’s features with homeopathic remedies

Interpreting Chronic Illness The Convergence of Traditional Chinese
Medicine, Homeopathy and Biomedicine
Interpreting Chronic Illness’ contribution to homeosiniatry
Reconfigures and updated the Five Phases so that its theory functions as a template upon which homeopathic materia medica can be superimposed
Features of the revamped Five Phase theory
Renamed “Sense Dimensional Analysis”
The “five emotions” are expanded into the vastly more sophisticated “five core conundrums”

Explanatory power of Homeosiniatric Five Phases theory Incorporates Eight Principle concepts
formerly beyond the scope of the Five Phases
Blends homeopathy’s specificity and concreteness into TCM’s abstract schema.
Models with sophistication biomedical diagnoses of chronic illness states so they become existentially meaningful as opposed to random and frightening
Offers the first comprehensively integrated diagnostic and treatment model of three powerful medical systems
Sight
Touch
Taste
Smell
Hearing
The Homeosiniatric Five Phases theory also… Allows for creative modeling of the
known Generating, Control, and Retrograde cycles plus a new cycle describing a Compensation dynamic
Creates predictive scenarios such as disorder of smell presaging the onset of Alzheimers
Makes sense of what are otherwise inexplicable pathologies such as the frameshift mutation’s affinity for breast and colon cancer
Updates and reinvigorates the Five Phases so that they become relevant to biomedicine
When all five dimensions are disharmonized…
An efficient andmeaningful means ofmodeling the two greatchronic illnesschallenges of our time:
• Cancer (see ICI)• Autism (see
forthcoming book)
Chaos
Isolation
Anxiety
Disorientat
ion
Entropy
Homeosiniatry!
Putting it all together…
