"Speaking warts off" is a centuries-old method of healing warts, shingles, lichens or allergies. Many people, in spite of reluctance and disbelief, purified by pain and after useless medication or failed operations, have their warts discussed.
Time and again, amazed people report the sudden disappearance of their warts after having been plagued by pain for years and usually having already undergone many different but unsuccessful therapies.
The origin of this ancient spiritual healing method lies in the magic-infused Middle Ages. It was believed that demons and evil forces could only be driven away with the help of magical formulas. Behind this was the idea that the illness or skin change was a personified power that could be moved to leave the patient's body. Not infrequently, the time of performance of the ritual was made dependent on the lunar calendar and performed in an occult atmosphere.
There is no longer much of this today. Alternative practitioners, spiritual healers or others who offer the method do not use fixed rules, but it still works. During the treatment, the hands or other smaller objects are usually held over the warts and certain talking formulas are formulated in thought or muttered to oneself.
The knowledge and skill of discussing was and still is passed down from ancestors to children and grandchildren. Normally, the formulas are not revealed.
However, here is a revealed saying from the internet:
"Warts, you can't stand the chalks,
Go away, go away, go away, don't ever hurt me!"
More important than the formulas, according to most modern practitioners, is the energy transmitted through the ritual, which releases inner blockages and stimulates the patient's self-healing powers. This is strongly reminiscent of other spiritual healing methods, such as the well-known Reiki.
