Enquête | Scientology's Medicine

Enquête | November 30, 2023 The Church of Scientology is well known for its opposition to psychiatry and the use of psychotropic medications. The show Enquête infiltrated the Church to show exactly what alternatives Scientology proposes to those with diagnosed mental illness problems. Since its founding in the 1950s, the Church has offered up its own alternative theories on the functioning of the human brain and even its own remedies to psychiatric problems. The report shows Church officials providing medical advice and encouraging people to stop taking their prescribed medications; a prerequisite for a purification process at the center of the doctrine of the Church. « The Purification Rundown » involves taking potentially toxic doses of vitamins, sold out the back of a mechanic’s garage. Those who follow the program also undergo intensive sauna sessions every day; a medically risky regime approved by doctors friendly to Scientology.
