Navach believed that neurohormones facilitate the phenomenon of healing. Part of their influence may be on messenger RNA initiating cell responses involved in accelerated healing. This hypothesized interaction between neurohormones and messenger RNA can be stimulated by the natural current of injury, by other resonating neurohormone clusters and/or by other forms of energy.

Neurohormone sites, however, can also serve as an obstacle to healing through either depletion or excessive accumulation. This phenomenon is often caused by autoimmune attack on neurohormone clusters or neurohormone production sites. Such attack can occur more readily if the Omega Immune System is not functioning adequately.

Nogier and Bahr identified obstacles to healing. Navach believed that obstacles are manifestations of excessive accumulation or depletion of neurohormones. These altered concentrations can obstruct the transfer of information between neurohormone clusters, thus inhibiting the activation of the healing process. Treatment in Navach's Phases IV - X can be used to bypass these obstacles.

Obstacles to healing take additional forms. Not infrequently deficiency of digestive enzymes and/or hydrochloric acid lead to insufficient absorption of nutritional substances. Lack of these substances often contributes to a depressed immune system. The use of opiates, certain other medications and even emotions can inhibit the overall chemistry of healing. HLA phenotypes A through D in conjunction with other chemistries can frequently identify individuals sensitive to specific foods. These specific foods, once absorbed, can also lead to an autoimmune process that inhibits healing.
