Medical intuitive
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In alternative medicine, a medical intuitive is a person who alleges to have learned to apply their intuition to the field of medical diagnosis. There are medical professionals, health care workers, scientists and others who are skeptical of the claims of such abilities.
Medical intuition as a field was initiated primarily by Caroline Myss a Ph.D. in "intuition and energy medicine". Medical intuitives claim to be able to view many physical problems in a person's aura before any physical signs of illness can be detected. Areas of illness are said to frequently appear to medical intuitives as dark, grainy, or sticky energy.

In 1967, Dr. Shafica Karagulla published, in Breakthrough to Creativity, the results of her interviews with health professionals who claimed they could "see" the condition of organs within the body, as well as fields of force, or auras around human beings, animals, and plants. Dr. Karagulla asserted that a large number of successful physicians she interviewed showed signs of what she called Higher Sense Perception (HSP), which they relied upon when they made each medical diagnosis.
In their books on the subject of "energy healing", authors such as Alijandra, Barbara Brennan, Donna Eden, Choa Kok Sui, Ken Page, Caroline Myss, Carol Ritberger, Caroline Sutherland and Diane Stein describe "patterns" of disease and how they say they can assist people in healing by working with "subtle energies". These authors assert that good physical health is directly related to a healthy aura, and therefore work to assist people in understanding how to replace destructive negative emotions and energies with healing positive energies.
