Individualized Medicine: What Can We Learn From Physics?

Nisha J. Manek, MD

 It is increasingly being recognized that the “one-size-fits-all” approach to diagnosing and treating diseases needs to change if medical sciences wants to transform the value of health-care delivery. Biotechnology has improved our ability to customize patient-specific strategies. For example, an individual’s genes and proteins will, in future, be used to better predict, prevent, diagnose and treat sub-types of diseases such as arthritis. This individualized approach, also called individualized medicine (IM), has tremendous potential to increase the value of health outcomes. The value of health care – meaning high-quality health care with good outcomes, excellent safety, and great service at the lowest cost over time, is the promise of IM.

 But how is physics related to IM? The science of physics has conclusively shown that human consciousness, or human intention, can change the properties of materials such as water or liver enzymes.* Furthermore, human intention can change whole living systems in a specific and individual direction. This means that, using human intention, an individual human body and human health can be impacted in a positive way. This vision builds on and expands our current conventional medical care model. Dr. Manek is working closely with the pioneer of intention research, Dr. William Tiller, PhD, professor emeritus of Stanford University, to develop and extend human intention research to IM.
