What if certain body functions could be rebalanced by working directly with the tissues that cause them? Organotherapy, derived from the homeopathic tradition, uses diluted extracts of animal origin - called sarcodes - to gently support weakened or unbalanced organs. At Soin-et-Nature, this specific approach is aimed at those seeking targeted care that respects physiological functioning. Discover the principles, benefits, methods of use and precautions to be aware of when using this still little-known method, rich in therapeutic potential.
Organotherapy is a branch of medicine that uses extracts of animal organs and tissues for therapeuticpurposes. More specifically, organotherapy uses extracts from various endocrine glands, which are responsible for producing hormones that regulate numerous metabolic functions in the body. The most commonly used glandular extracts come from the thymus and adrenal glands of farm animals such as cattle, sheep and pigs. These extracts are said to help boost the immune system.
Like homeopathic remedies, the extracts used in organotherapy are diluted and dynamized. Dilutions range from 4 CH to 15 CH. In this therapeutic approach, a specific organ extract will have an effect on the corresponding human organ. For example, an animal heart extract will act on the human heart, not the lungs. In this way, the healthy animal organ has the capacity to heal the diseased human organ.
Organotherapy occupies a special place among bio-therapies and in homeopathy. The products used are Hahnemanian homeopathic dilutions of human (placental extracts) or animal (usually porcine) tissue and glandular extracts. Sarcodes, or"organotherapics", are healthy tissue products (secretions) or extracts of animal origin. Notable examples in homeopathic medicine include Lac caninum, Cholesterinum and Thyroidinum. Sarcoderma is a homeopathic remedy derived from a part of an animal, not the whole animal.
