Disease is a vital expression of the human organism.
Georg Groddeck Quotes
One must not forget that recovery is brought about not by the physician, but by the sick man himself. He heals himself, by his own power, exactly as he walks by means of his own power, or eats, or thinks, breathes or sleeps.

About
Georg Groddeck was born in Bad Kösen, Germany. He was a German physician and writer regarded as a pioneer of psychosomatic medicine. His therapy connects naturopathic treatment with psychoanalytic, suggestive and hypnotic elements. His foot and arm bath, massages and dietary cuisine are still practised today, although the bold doctrine of salvation, where he vigorously massaged his patients, is necessarily quite authoritarian, and a more reserved approach would be judged appropriate today. He wrote several books include: Ein Frauenproblem, Book of the It, The meaning of illness, and Der Seelensucher(novel).
