Homeopathy & Emotional Illness

Homeopathy lays the greatest emphasis in treating the source of various emotional problems — the individual in question, because each of us reacts to any given emotional or physical illness differently.

Phytolacca: Emotional Fatigue & Glandular Agony

Individuals who represent the homeopathic Phytolacca Decandra personality tend to fall ill often. They also typically present with a host of emotional issues — with the seat of their health problems residing in the glands.

A Case Of Childhood Depression

Many remedies share similar symptoms. Finding the simillimum — a homeopathic remedy that is best suited to the given patient — to a case can be a challenging [also humbling] undertaking. However by using Dr Paul Herscu’s method of ‘cycles and segments,’ I believe one can sometimes quickly get an insight into the nature of the patient’s difficulties in a way that helps to find the remedy more easily. The cycles and segments method offers a practical way of organising information and promotes deep and integrated homeopathic Materia Medica study, free from the cumbersome memorisation of long symptom lists.

Homeopathy & Healthy Aging

Does using homeopathy, along with other preventive measures, such as supportive, nourishing, natural medicines, offer anything useful to people in their later years? yes, indeed — for more reasons than just healthy aging and improved quality of life.

21 Years Of Ultra-Dilution Homeopathic Research

‘Ultra High Dilution’ was a landmark in the evolution of research in homeopathy, representing the first multidisciplinary work to address the ‘how and why’ of the actions of ultra-high dilutions. For two decades, ‘Ultra High Dilution’ was widely quoted within the research community. In 2015, it was time to re-visit and review the 21 years of research activity since studies were collated for this publication. The original authors from 1994 [or, close laboratory colleagues] were asked to contribute papers covering their research efforts, experience and insights into ultra-high dilutions [UHDs] in the period from 1994, up to 2015. This article highlights key aspects of the reassessment conducted in 2015.

21 Kitchen Remedies For Common Problems

The most ancient of healing remedies, simple and effective, evolved in our kitchen. No wonder, grandma’s right. Here goes — your healing remedies for common ailments derived thereto...

Mind Over Matter

It is rightly said that our mind is our own resident physician. What’s more, our body too is as intelligent as our mind; the two, in unison, are our internal healing system’s most powerful allies. Our mind works through the brain and nervous system; in so doing, it sends powerful notes, or messages, to our body. This is fundamental to prompt, or plod, the functioning of our healing mechanisms. This is also, doubtless, the foundational principle of nature’s most natural, time-tested, all-encompassing approach integral to homeopathic treatment.

Cyclamen: Not Just A Woman's Remedy

What distinguishes the homeopathic Cyclamen personality is their penchant to understanding things, not just from their own ‘radar,’ but also from someone else’s perspective. Yet, they are often bogged down by anxiety, with a creepy canvas enveloping their repentant thinking. 

Breast Pain: When Even Hugs Hurt

Woman-to-woman, let me ask you: have you ever avoided a nice, warm hug from a loved one, simply because your breasts were too tender? Would it have sounded scary if a conventional doctor had diagnosed your problem as mastalgia? No worries. Just get rid of mastalgia, gently — with homeopathy.

The Key To Successful Repertorisation

The process of repertorisation and case-analysis is inextricably bound to and interdependent on various crucial elements. This bids fair and emphasises on learning and/or honing of all skills required to select the most appropriate homeopathic remedy for the given case.

Homeopathy Is Natural Medicine

It is a familiar question. modern medicine is highly dependent on the role of pharmaceuticals — why does homeopathy avoid their use? Here goes the debate… and, its homeopathic standpoint…

Shriya Saran's Wellness Mantra

Shriya Saran is one of the most beautiful actresses in South Indian and Hindi films. Her innocent doe-eyed exquisiteness, long, lustrous locks, and hourglass figure have set a new benchmark for younger actresses. A peek into her beauty and fitness mantra, by courtesy of www.stylecraze.com:

Homeopathy & Osteoarthritis Joint Harmony

Homeopathy treats osteoarthritis [OA] on the basis of what makes the OA individual and their complaints unique — such as the ‘character’ of their joint symptoms, personality, sensitivities and emotions. It not only relieves OA pain, safely and effectively, it also adds life to one’s joint health and optimal wellness.

Anger: The Stormy Phantom In Your Brain

We all know what anger is. We have all felt and ‘emoted’ it, more or less, on a regular basis, whether as a definitive, or fleeting, embodiment of annoyance, or as full-fledged rage. Anger is, in précis, a normal phenomenon. It is also a healthy human emotion. It becomes a dilemma, a difficult-to-handle emotion, or ‘deliciously evil,’ when it gets out of control, or turns vicious. Homeopathy can help the individual with anger issues and also put them back into balance, or even keel.

Chimaphila: The ‘Umbrella' Remedy For Urinary Disorders

Individuals who present with the homeopathic Chimaphila personality have a strong disposition, for urinary tract, bladder and prostate problems, with painful urination. They also have a propensity for ‘agitated’ angst, or disquiet.

Aranea Diadema In A Case Of Epilepsy

In paediatric cases, we [homeopaths] cannot always rely on the child being able to express their inner world in a way that we can understand with words. It is, therefore, even more important that we enter into the child’s world by fully embodying their unique perspective and experience from their point of view.

Vitamin E: The Cholesterol Cop

A plethora of studies supports the good, old adage that we are what we eat. In countries with a lower incidence of coronary heart disease, like Italy and France, citizens boast of higher plasma levels of vitamin E — which is strongly associated with their eating habits.

Homeopathy & Hay Fever

Summer is here — and, so are seasonal allergies or hay fever, as it is more commonly called in the UK. The common symptoms are runny, itchy eyes, a runny and/or stuffed up nose — and, sneezing. Homeopathy can help.

Veterinary Homeopathy Sweet Pills For Your Pet's Summer & Winter Complaints

Homeopathic remedies often assist your pet in dealing with the troubling health issues that result from exposure to extreme heat and cold weather, or conditions.

How Homeopathy Works

Homeopathy works by assisting the body’s own powers of self-healing, rather than brushing them aside, or overriding them, as conventional medical treatments often do.

Of Fire & Brimstone

This is a short story about a long case. The remedy is pretty ‘run of the mill,’ except that in homeopathy there is no mill.

Beyond The Antibiotic Fallout

There is nothing more frustrating than being stuck in a downward spiral of illness. The one big, more disconcerting, problem is recurring infections caused by antibiotic use, or overuse. Is there a way out? Yes, of course — homeopathy.

Homeopathic Practice & The Power Of Objective Assessment

The best thing for homeopathic students and also doctors to do is to go back to the essence, or ‘source,’ of Dr Samuel Hahnemann’s tenets, and use the power of objective observation to revolutionise their homeopathic skills and practice of medicine, in the best manner possible — simply, sensibly, and without rigmarole.

A Case Of Myalgic Encephalitis

Many years ago, I made my first house call in about five years to see a 59-year-old woman who was unable to travel.

Erigeron: When Pain Leads To Despair

The homeopathic Erigeron Canadensis personality presents with a nagging sense of great despair — bordering on futility. This desolation, in more ways than one, is powerfully characterised by genitourinary disorders and painful urination, among other symptoms.

Strep Throat & Homeopathy

Strep throat is amenable to homeopathic treatment. Although the diagnosis might cause some anxiety, especially for the parent of a child who has come down with it, prompt homeopathic attention along with adjunctive measures, such as dietary modifications and nutritional supplements, is the most appropriate way of successfully handling the problem without the side-effects of antibiotics.

Good Fat Is Good For You

There are bad fats; there are good fats. Research shows that eating ‘good’ fat can promote weight loss in a ‘lopsided-caloric’ environment, such as ours. Put simply, it means that eating a higher percentage of ‘good fat’ is healthy, so long as you’re not consuming calories too many on the whole.
