The Science of Healing at the Cellular Level
Category: Health and Healing
The cells in our bodies are not independent units. They do not control their own feeding, elimination,migration, or reproduction; they are controlled by signals from the extracellular matrix (ECM) thatsurrounds them. This all-encompassing inner ocean unifies all our cells and controls them in a coordinatedand integrated fashion.
Revealing the stunning implications of the extracellular matrix, Matthew Wood shows how it clearlyexplains the actions and efficacy of holistic therapies. He explores the ground-breaking research of AlfredPischinger, who discovered the ECM in 1975, as well as the role of the matrix in transmitting and enactingthe genetic code, including the roles of the mitochondria, the nucleus, and ribosomes.
He explores how thematrix builds and repairs itself and investigates the complex processes and components involved in the self-healing of wounds and traumas
