Surgery: How Homeopathy Can Help

We would all avoid surgery if we could. Homeopathy, in fact, allows us to do so in many cases, although going under the knife may sometimes be necessary.

- Dr Joette Calabrese

We are fortunate that homeopathy doesn’t interact with conventional drugs, or medical treatments. Hence, it makes the perfect companion to surgical procedures. When one understands, or learns, this simple surgical protocol, you’ll be ready for the next time you, or a loved one faces surgery.

You may not know that at the turn of the century, the US boasted of many homeopathic hospitals where skilled surgeons knew the value of using homeopathy before and after operations. This type of medicine is still practiced in other countries, such as England, Switzerland, Germany and India.

The following protocol has been shown to help the surgical patient by reducing the inherent shock from an operation, preventing infection, boosting the immune system, alleviating post-op pain, speeding recovery and even stabilising the person’s emotional state.hen one has these remedies on hand for surgery, which might include tooth extraction, organ removal or a simple mole excision, they would be handy. Also, the more severe the pain, the more frequent the administration and the higher the potency required.

Arnica Montana 200C is given morning and night on the day before surgery, and then repeated the morning of and just before being wheeled into the operating room. Remember that the purpose of Arnica Montana is to keep the infection at bay, minimise the shock to the system, reduce swelling, minimise the possibility of haemorrhages [bleeding] and put the person at ease. This should be repeated as soon as possible after surgery and administered every 2-3 hours, or as needed. It can then be repeated as often as required to eliminate pain. If the pain is persistent, it indicates the need for more frequent repetition, perhaps every hour or two.
