CTM is science and art; it is a global medicine, which operates beyond the limits of the physiology interested in the cure of the causes and in the internal and external environment in which the illness takes place; is it a logical and systematic unicum, founded on a “syncretic” communicational system, which constitutes its code of work; it is a science ofcommunicational synthesis, with philosophical, cybernetic, esoteric aspects, together with its roots implanted in the living being's universal laws of physics.

CTM offers theoretical foundations to philosophical questions, because of its dialectic by which it obtains understanding and knowledge about the individual's energetic dynamics, examined in his spatial-temporal and environmental context.

The key to the study of the chaotic mechanisms with CTM lies in the dialectics of harmony-disharmony, equilibrium-disequilibrium, with which is developed the organism’s process of “modulation”, made up of chaotic, aspecific reactivity.

Nonlinearity is a characteristic aspect of the complex systems; it is at the root of nature's behaviour, dominated by the laws of chaos, by the probabilistic aspect of quantum mechanics and by the law of indeterminacy, which place it beyond any possibility of exact predictions and control. The “environment”, as all autonomous complex systems, is at the root of “chaotic behaviours”.

There is an orderly, analytical way of acquiring the “knowledge”, by means of the sensory organs, and another way of achieving awareness, consciousness, receptive and integrated, through the direct perception of the meaning of the sensory activities. These different methods for obtaining “knowledge” utilize a double language, logical and analogical, mentally elaborated in the memory of the past, or else intuitive, Centred on the present. The “emotions”, chaotic events, lead to the cognition of sensations, the self-regulating mechanism which leads to the knowledge, understanding and consciousness of the structures and the dynamics of the organism.

The “mental” framework of the neurovegetative system leads to the understanding of emotions and states of consciousness. The unconscious is the lack of knowledge, understanding and consciousness of the emotions.

The “consciousness of the emotions” is the individual’s response to the environmental intra and extra-psychic dynamics. Through this state of awareness is obtained knowledge, which opens the door to voluntary, psycho-physical actions.

“Every act of knowledge offers an entire world”; “knowledge generates the demand for more knowledge”; this represents an evolution in the movement of “life”.

A perfect equilibrium does not exist. There is concordance and discordance between the infant stage and adult life. The uninterrupted flow of emotions, sentiments, affectivity and emotional ambivalences cooperate in the development of awareness, understanding, knowledge and consciousness.

Consciousness represents the mental life, made up of sentiments, sensations, thoughts, desires, ambitions, which become cerebral mechanisms; consciousness represents the total sum of all the cerebral processes operating inside the “environment”. An adult’s whole emotional life gives a sense to life and death; and guarantees the freedom of choice in the finalities, which will nourish the uninterrupted flow of emotional and rational life.

Individuality is developed within the complex system structure. In the flow of time the individual acquires cognition of his own individuality and begins a journey along an existential path, without alternatives, in which subjectivity and freedom of choice are dependent upon the individual’s perceptive, affective and cognitive world.

“Stress is the essence of life”; it requires a continuum of adaptations to external, physical, environmental, social situations in order to control its intensity and avoid its excess.

A stressing, chaotic event can modify the dynamic system in the flow of time. Its degree depends upon the mental, rational, emotive interpretation of the event, perceived as a danger or as a stimulus. The fetal program, the prenatal environmental experiences and later the individual’s psychic-physical-mental development in relation to the internal and external environment, until the adult age, are of fundamental importance to the formation of these highly complex biological mechanisms.

They are dynamic networks structuring an ensemble of factors, or variables, which interact to create a chaotic dynamic system.The process of somatization also participates in the construction of the universe of conscious or unconscious experiences.

An increased emotivity causes “stress”; this dominates the neurovegetative system, whose function consists in the control of the intercurring relationships between the communicational psycho-physical relationships and the information it receives.

The recognition of his personal identity and the identity of others is the guiding thread to an existence realized within the biophysical parameters of space, time, environment, that is in equilibrium with nature's laws.

The qualifying characteristic of the individual's emotional life lies in his capacity of facing “other individuals”. When the interiority opens up to the comprehension of the “other”, a liberation of creative expressions takes place, with which one reaches the supreme levels of individual evolution. Sensations, emotions, sentiments, understanding, knowledge cooperate to form the “conscience”, that is the “phenomenological mind” that introduces a phenomenological, original synthesis of psycho-physical reality.

The phenomenological mind can refer to “memory”, which has a central function of establishing a remote control mechanism over the complex homeostatic system, while guaranteeing the constancy of the values of the various temporal-spatial and environmental parameters, according to the inter-relationship with the external environment.

“Emotions” have the dual role of activating energy and controlling modulations in chaotic energetic movements, which are the cause of the changes altering the system’s dynamics. Psycho-somatic biophysical messages influence the emotions and activate an evolutionary process. It is necessary to control the emotions yet not destroy them.

In the complex system the activities of the “sensory organs” have the task of transmitting and inserting the information received from the internal and external environment into the energetic dynamics, in the context of the third parameter which is the “environment”. The sensory organs are an integral part of the complex system structure, whose dynamics form the fundamental relationships between the organs and functions and control the “events” occurring in the individual’s social life.

The essential relational task consists in supplying the “perception” of the environment and inserting into the energetic dynamic the environmental information at play, which will determine eventual linear or chaotic activities. The somatization of information explains the great importance of the “concordance” between the “sensory” organs and the “perception” within the system's dynamics. The environmental information creates “emotions”, that is reactions of a physical or psychic nature, which activate psycho-somatic responses inside the organism.

Here are interested complex modular neuronal frameworks which will transmit messages and information in order to coordinate the integrated neurobiological and neuropsychological functions of the mental activities. The biological phenomenologies, normal or pathological, are present with numerous functional mechanisms of a chaotic nature. These individual variations in “biological reality” reach a psycho-physical equilibrium through the faculty of adaptation of the nervous, immune, endocrine and cerebral systems. The brain manifests a structural and functional variability; thus it is not predisposed to receive pre-existing information from the environment because the environment is a source of “indeterminacy”, as it cannot be programmed in advance.

The awareness of the internal and external environment is a state of perpetual change: this favours the conditions for transforming a linear, causal, predictable dynamic into a chaotic, casual, unpredictable one, which follows the laws of deterministic chaos, the laws of "disorder".

Environmental information generates the emotions which generate sentiments, the perceptions which evolve into comprehension, knowledge, awareness and consciousness. By stabilising the equilibrium in the EC the individual is brought into a conscious, voluntary realization of his existence in the world.CTM has integrated this process in the dialectics of the dynamics of the physiological system.Variations in the rhythm of the EC during the examination at the pulses provide evidence of the physical-psychic changes resulting from the onset of sensations, emotions, and thoughts in the individual's energetic dynamics.

The chaotic nature of the “event” is transformed into a conscious realization, in which participates the individual's creativity and activity and becomes manifest as a “cognition” of the somatic or psychic sensation. Through this awareness the individual can attain “consciousness of the body” and of its parts, relative to the surrounding space: the Self. Awareness and knowledge of the Self create the capacity to perceive and understand the meaning of the information for creating a “subjective Centre of consciousness”, tightly connected to the objective dimensions of the chaotic event.

The changes of the rhythms in the flow of time imply the insertion, in the causal, linear dynamics, of “fractal dimensions”: consisting in variations in the rhythm, fluctuations, oscillations, ultradian rhythms, perceptible during the examination of the dynamics of the energetic circulation at the pulses. The physical or psychic sensations originating from the internal or external environment carry the information to the superior, complex psychic functions of the brain.

“The brain represents all that we are: the other organs are mechanical parts”. The brain is a complex structure based on a genetic pattern whose functions are determined by its interaction with the environment.

The brain contains a large quantity of links, superimpositions, duplications, complementary functions, generally integrated by means of the signals which connect a variety of responses: automatic and conscious, voluntary and involuntary, essential or not, superior and inferior; emotional, instinctual, physical.

The nervous system connects the activities of the brain, which are programmed during embryonic development, with the internal organs, which it must defend from external assault; it is a communicational system functioning by means of instantaneous signals and information; the nervous system also communicates with the external parts of the body, whose integrity it ensures.

The complex process of coordination operates through nervous impulses, with specific systems for the transmission of information and special mechanisms for compensating for the alterations in the chaotic dynamic (fractals).

Cerebral activity is chaotic, as is cortical activity, which maintains the nervous system in continuous interaction with every other system, in order to ensure the equilibrium and the constancy of homeostasis, necessary for a normal evolution of the system throughout the individual's whole lifetime.
