Where does conventional medicine end, where do alternative healing methods begin? This article and video deal with evidence-based medicine, alternative methods and the role of the psyche in the development of MS.
Prof. Mathias Mäurer does not even like the term “conventional medicine”. What is important to him, however, is that each hypothesis is thoroughly tested before it is applied. According to scientific criteria of evidence-based medicine. If a method or a drug cannot withstand this examination, then the opposite should not always be claimed. Unfortunately, this is often the case on the internet.

Similarly, it is a deception to want to have “proven” the functioning of a therapy with individual examples. It requires many test subjects and a control group. Only then does it become a “shoe”, or rather an application, that can be approved.
However: The head physician of neurology at the Würzburg-Mitte hospital has nothing against the additional intake of homeopathic remedies. After all, the subjective perception “This is good for me” also plays a role. However, it becomes dangerous if an effective therapy does not take place at all, if the disease-modifying active substance is completely replaced by globules. Then opportunities are missed, then time passes during which the tested therapy could have worked.
Not only with regard to therapy, but also with regard to the development of multiple sclerosis, there are many unproven hypotheses. For example, the one that unresolved internal conflicts could cause MS. This leads to feelings of guilt. But: No MS patient is to blame for their illness! MS cannot be explained psychodynamically. Rather: MS is a fateful coincidence. And autoimmune diseases are not rare either. They are, so to speak, the side effect of a very well functioning immune system.
