Since the "Esoteric Wave" has broken over the West, the number of so-called "spiritual" or "mental" healers has multiplied. Sadly, this process has come with a gradual decay of quality. The majority are inexperienced, moderately talented, themselves overestimating wannabes who offer esoteric nebula, doubtful diplomas and titles ("Master", "licensed", "certified", "recognized", "examined") instead of therapeutic ability. Such people bring discredit upon their way of treatment, impair the reputation of the few real masters, disappoint and endanger innumerable patients who are unsuspiciously seeking their help.
The Main Goal
The IAOH cooperates with outstanding healers from all over the world. Its main activities will be in Europe, especially in German-speaking countries. To be recommended by the IAOH should be a special honour for healers – and a seal of approval for patients seeking help.
Who will be helped by IAOH?
The IAOH recommends selected healers
- to patients who are thought to be "therapy-resistant", at least by conventional medicine; who don´t want to get mixed up with everyone who calls himself "healer"; who spare no expense and pains to eventually travel far away in search of a real master.
- to researchers who offer chances for healers to furnish evidence for their abilities within scientific studies;
- to doctors, hospitals and other medical institutions who want to cooperate with qualified healers;
- to organizers of congresses, symposiums and seminars who offer a serious opportunity for outstanding healers to demonstrate their methods and to pass on their experiences;
- to press, radio and tv journalists who try to deal with the theme "Mental Healing" in a careful, informed and balanced manner.
Further goals: The IAOH
- documents treatments within the practices of healers;
- medically evaluates their therapeutic successes;
- collects and analyzes reports of patients;
- works together with persons, institutes and organizations who try to improve the quality of healers; who medically test their abilities; who develop and apply scientific methods for testing mental healers;
- shows therapeutic chances between orthodox medicine and mental healing: within the broad range of complementary therapies. This function is taken over by a team of experts – doctors of various fields of specialization, experienced non-medical practicioners ("Heilpraktiker"), psychologists and psychotherapists – who will offer advice by phone. In addition the IAOH cooperates with information centers, initiatives and medical societies which share these goals.
