Description
Why is EVERY Case a Complex Case | Dickson Thom, DDS, ND | 1.5 CEUs (AANP, general) | 2025 NYANP Annual Conference
This presentation explores the complexity of chronic illness through the lens of Biological Medicine, emphasizing that every case involves disruptions to dynamic equilibrium across all organ systems. It introduces homeostasis as a foundational concept and highlights how terrain theory guides the identification of underlying energetic, functional, and physical imbalances. Through a personalized and systems-based approach, clinicians learn to identify and address internal stressors—such as toxins, trauma, and emotional patterns—that drive long-term health challenges. The presentation introduces practical in-office diagnostic tools and step-by-step strategies that support long-term healing through natural laws and bio-therapies. Case examples and actionable protocols demonstrate how restoring physiological balance leads to sustainable patient transformation.
