I.   Introductory provisions

Therapeutic is an ancient term meaning the healing and treatment of illness and disease, as well as a term used to describe all forms of cure, procedures as well as healing facilities.

The word Therapeutic originates from the ancient Greek word θεραπευτή (therapeutē) meaning “healing and treatment of illness and disease” as well as the Gnostic sects that famously possessed such healing knowledge in the ancient world.

Therapeutic represents the second of two (2) competing views and models to health, remedy and cure throughout most civilizations being Occult Ritual and Spells and Therapeutic Treatment:

(i) Occult Ritual and Spells is the ancient belief that illness is directly caused by malevolent forces and spiritual disharmony which can only be cured by secret ceremonies and spells; and

(ii) Therapeutic Treatment is the ancient belief that illness is a both a physical and mental condition that can be cured with the correct mind and therapeutic treatment.

As Therapeutic treatment throughout its history is the unified principle that all illness, disease and disorder is derived from one (1) or more biological and mental malfunctions, the focus of therapy has historically always been on concocting treatments based on the cause and underlying malfunction, not the symptoms.

Given Therapeutic treatment has historically largely been founded on common sense and the curative properties of certain herbs and narcotic drugs, Therapeutic treatment has largely remained embedded in the lower classes of civilizations for millennia.

The restoration of genuine knowledge and skill in Therapeutic remedy is consistent with these Canons as the proper term for the promotion of health, well being and direct treatment of malfunction and illness.
