The Wisdom of the Healing Wound: A New View on Why We Hurt & How We Can Cure Even the Deepest Physical and Emotional Wounds - Tapa dura

In The Wisdom of the Healing Wound, Dr. Knighton empowers and comforts those who are suffering from serious, chronic, mysterious, and non-healing wounds—whether physical, psychological, or spiritual.

The Wisdom of the Healing Wound offers a new view on why we hurt, how we heal, and how we wound ourselves for our own benefit, such as when we exercise and tear down our muscles to build more. Wounds are also a form of memory; they enable our bodies to store information about where danger lies and when to be careful. Wounds are our greatest teachers, our most important survival tools, and our best instruments of growth and change. Paradoxically, wounding is probably our greatest stimulus for health.

Armed with this new, positive outlook on wounding, readers can enjoy profound healing—even in wounds that have been diagnosed as chronic or incurable. Whether those wounds are physical, psychological, or spiritual, readers of The Wisdom of the Healing Wound will find many new and effective healing strategies—and renewed hope.

David Knighton, M.D., founded the Wound Healing Institute at the University of Minnesota Medical Center. He also developed a medically holistic approach to helping people with nonhealing wounds to heal. In addition, Dr. Knighton founded Curative Technologies, a medical technology and service company whose products stimulate healing in previously nonhealing wounds and whose wound-care centers serve people in several countries.
