Homeopathy is a modality using extremely dilute amounts of mostly plant and mineral substances to stimulate healing. It was developed over 200 years ago in Germany by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann to replace many of the toxic substances used as medicines at the time. Homeopathy is very popular in many parts of the world including Europe, Australia and India but is not as well known in the United States. I have used this treatment in my practice for over 17 years and find it very helpful in many different situations. I wanted to share just a few examples from the last few months of some of the varied uses for this amazing medicine.
1. A five year old with extremely disruptive and destructive behavioral issues was treated with homeopathy and is now able to attend school and her parents can now relax and enjoy her company because the difficult behaviors have resolved.
2. An 85 year old who has had Trigeminal Neuralgia for over 40 years and typically experiences excruciating facial nerve pain daily has now gone 6 weeks with only an occasional mild twinge. I expect her to continue to improve over time.
3. Two different patients in their 40s with hormone imbalance causing swelling and water retention have both seen the swelling resolve and have also lost weight.
4. A 67 year old patient who developed a long list of symptoms over several months after receiving several vaccines and completely puzzled his doctors has seen 75% of his complaints disappear in 2 weeks.
This is just a short list of the recent results I have seen with homeopathy. Please call us to schedule an appointment if you are interested in a homeopathy consult!
