🚨 Concept Therapy Exposed: The Occult “Great Secret” Behind Healing
Concept Therapy presents itself as a scientific, mental, and chiropractic “enhancement technique,” teaching that faulty concepts in human consciousness cause disease and that by replacing these thoughts with “positive” ones, the body can activate “innate intelligence” to heal itself. While this sounds harmless—even appealing to those seeking healing—it is rooted in occult philosophy, New Age deception, and counterfeit spirituality that contradicts the Word of God.
🌍 Where Did Concept Therapy Come From?
Concept Therapy was founded in the early 20th century by Dr. Thurman Fleet, a chiropractor from Texas. Dr. Fleet taught that all sickness originates in “wrong concepts” in the subconscious mind and that healing comes when one aligns with the “great secret” of universal truth.
Fleet’s teachings borrowed heavily from New Thought philosophy, metaphysics, and Hermeticism. These movements taught that man’s mind has divine creative power, and by aligning with the “universal mind,” one could manipulate health, circumstances, and even spiritual realities.
This worldview is not biblical—it is a recycled form of ancient occultism rooted in self-deification.
🌀 Their Beliefs and “God”
Concept Therapy teaches that man has access to an “innate intelligence” that governs health. This “innate” is presented almost as a divine force or god within each person, resembling the Hindu idea of atman (divine self) or the New Age concept of “universal energy.”
Rather than recognizing the true God—YHWH, Creator of heaven and earth (Genesis 1:1)—Concept Therapy elevates the human mind and inner intelligence as the source of healing. In practice, this denies dependence on the Lord Jesus Christ, replacing Him with a counterfeit “god of self.”
Scripture warns:
“Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like…man.” (Romans 1:22–23)
🎯 Purpose of the Modality and Why It’s Used
The stated purpose of Concept Therapy is to:
-
Reprogram faulty concepts in the subconscious mind.
-
Empower the body’s “innate intelligence” to self-heal.
-
Enhance the effectiveness of chiropractic adjustments.
In other words, it’s designed to bypass God’s design for healing and instead empower the mind as the ultimate authority. Many are drawn to it because they are desperate for healing, peace, or control over their lives—but what begins as hope often becomes spiritual bondage.
⚠️ Is It Divination?
Yes—Concept Therapy falls under the category of divination and occult practices because it taps into hidden, mystical knowledge that replaces trust in God with dependence on man’s own power. By invoking “innate intelligence” and the “great secret,” it draws upon the same deceptive principles as New Age visualization, positive confession, and metaphysical science.
Deuteronomy 18:10–12 warns against seeking hidden or mystical knowledge outside of God:
“There shall not be found among you anyone…who uses divination…or practices witchcraft…or conjures spells…For all who do these things are an abomination to the Lord.”
👿 Demonic Manifestations Through Concept Therapy
When Christians participate in or inherit involvement with Concept Therapy, they open spiritual doors to demonic oppression. This happens in several ways:
-
Idolatry of Self-Healing – Exalting “innate intelligence” as a god invites the spirit of pride and self-worship. (Isaiah 14:13–14 – Lucifer’s downfall was pride in wanting to be like God.)
-
Spirit of Deception – Believing a “secret truth” for healing replaces faith in the blood of Jesus with trust in occult principles. This allows lying spirits to operate.
-
Spirits of Infirmity – Rather than being healed, people may experience worsening illness, cycles of sickness, or torment because they’ve partnered with counterfeit healing. (Luke 13:11 – the woman bound with a spirit of infirmity.)
-
Generational Consequences – If your ancestors practiced Concept Therapy or similar metaphysical healing methods, you may inherit curses of confusion, infirmity, or occult bondage until renounced. (Exodus 20:5 – sins of the fathers visited upon the children.)
🙏 Biblical Truth About Healing
God alone is the source of true healing—not man’s concepts or hidden “innate intelligence.” Scripture makes this clear:
-
Exodus 15:26 – “For I am the LORD who heals you.”
-
Psalm 103:2–3 – “Bless the LORD…who heals all your diseases.”
-
Isaiah 53:5 – “By His stripes we are healed.”
-
Acts 10:38 – Jesus healed all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.
Healing is not unlocked by positive thoughts or tapping into mystical energies—it is a gift from the living God through Jesus Christ.
🚪 Closing Open Doors
If you or your family have been involved in Concept Therapy, you must repent and renounce it in prayer. Example prayer:
“Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, I repent for seeking healing through Concept Therapy and for trusting in false gods of innate intelligence. I renounce every occult spirit, lying spirit, and spirit of infirmity that entered through this practice. I break every generational curse tied to these practices and command every demonic power to leave me now in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.”
✝️ Conclusion
Concept Therapy may appear scientific, harmless, or even “Christianized” through positive thinking—but its roots are in occult New Thought, its “god” is not the God of the Bible, and its fruit leads to demonic oppression. True healing, freedom, and restoration can only come through the Lord Jesus Christ.
“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” (John 8:36)
