According to CTM the individual’s lifetime is determined within the program of his genetic patrimony. Through this program is assured the capacity of maintaining the physical and the biological order, intrinsic to the various levels of the system: this is the program of “self-regulation” existing within the living being’s complex system.

The physiology, according to CTM, coordinates the phenomenology of “anticipation” which keeps stable the regularity of the orderly process, at various levels.

La capacity of this process of anticipation, in the choices of evolution, supports the orderly management of the complex system’s development. Inside this process the dynamic function of matter becomes manifests in its uniqueness; which involves characteristics of specificity and at the same time a multiplicity of manifestations, according to specific temporal cycles.

Together energetic dynamics and blood circulation express the fundamental specificity of the program which determines physical, psychic, mental formation, i.e. the metabolism of the linear or chaotic dynamic complex system.

With this aim, the complex system is realized when to the energetic dynamics and the temporal rhythm is added the other essential parameter: “vital space”, i.e. “the internal and external environment” in which the functioning organism develops.

The living being’s dynamic system is defined, conditioned, determined by the“internal and external environment”, which supplies the information to be used in its complex, dynamic “self-organization”.

The “plasticity” of the internal-external environment supplies the dynamic equilibrium necessary for auto-genesis.

The “environment” is not “predefined”, and does not supply pre-existing information. While embryogenetic development takes place, the “environment” creates itself through the embryonic experience and presents intrinsic structural and functional variability.

The internal and external environment (by means of nourishment and respiration), together with the energetic rhythms, will later supply the energy necessary for the future development and evolution of the organism. Through the multiplicity of manifestations which will transform the organism, vital energy will maintain its uniqueness and specificity throughout its lifetime.

With the flowing of time vital energy will become integrated with the temporal cycles; it will go through transformations and will become part of every physiological system and subsystem of the individual. Through the multiplicity of events which will transform the organism, it is possible to study the energetic circulation by means of the examination of the EC at the pulses and, if necessary, it will be possible to appropriately modify and correct it.

This possibility of examining the “actual” energetic state of the organism is most important, so much more given that it is substantially impossible to make deterministic predictions in biology and medicine, starting from molecular mechanisms, because of the individual variations which characterize every level of biological reality.

In the physiology of CTM the homeostasis of the system, which is the capacity to maintain its stability, a dynamic equilibrium, in a synchronized manner, avails itself of essential structures throughout the life of the organism.

The first structure is the anatomical structure: space, sensory, motory faculties, with their internal and external relationships, constitute the indispensable supports for life. The second structure, by means of the internal organs, guarantees the activities of the respiratory and digestive systems, respectively respiration and nourishment. Internally and externally life is regulated by the neurovegetative system, or communication network, whose role is the “maintenance of life”. The third structure, which is “procreation”, transmits the life of the species and the characteristics of each individual.

This ternary structure contains in a single unit all the body structures, the Self, the structure which has its own intra and extra psychic language to communicate sensations, emotions, thoughts, and the mind, which is experience, knowledge, and consciousness.

Embryogenesis, physiology and linear or chaotic energetic dynamics make up the coordinated elements of the complex dynamic system.

They correspond to the physical and mental states during health or illness and in relation to the various environmental conditions, within which the individual vital process will unfold. These coordinates, examined in relation to the equilibrium in EC (the rhythms) during the examination of the EC at the pulses, supply the holistic picture needed to develop an appropriate therapeutic protocol for the patient.

CTM is a diagnostic, therapeutic medicine which studies a “pathological reality” throughout its evolution. It is a preventative medicine concentrated on pathogenesis rather than on pathology. It represents an infra-clinical medicine of the functions and not of the organs; it does not possess pre-established remedies or formulae, but only reasoning; it furnishes a syncretic control over the individual's complex system, within its internal and external environment.

The diagnosis is the outcome of complex logical and analogical reasoning which reveals knowledge about the energetic dynamic evolution taking place. This transformation occurs “in the flow of time” through multiple forms of “temporal rhythms”, and causes a mutation in the organism’s material, physical, organ-function “space”. The individual acquires “self-consciousness” through the interpretation of the signals which have their origin in the energetic changes, consequent of the intercurring relationships between the physiological systems within the internal and external environment.

The life of the individual, based on the universal laws, develops within the parameters of space and time.

Genes, chance, the internal and external environment differentiate each individual from every other living being. The “environment” represents the system’s third parameter: within which every physical or mental process contributes to the complete evolution of every human being.
