Homeopathy treats... Even before a diagnosis is made
Homeopathy has long recognised that merely diagnosing the illness is not everything, though this is important. It lays great emphasis on subtle forms of illnesses represented through symptoms — the language of all illnesses. For conventional medicine, an allergy is simply an allergy. For homeopathy, this is not so. For example, one individual with allergy may feel better with cold; another may feel worse. This is unique and also individualistic. This is precisely what homeopathy looks at and treats.
Homeopathy is geared to treat illnesses even before a diagnosis is made. What does this signify? Homeopathy looks at symptoms — the signpost of any illness waiting to grow or expand. It achieves this understanding on the basis of the individual’s unique patterns, or nature, personality, temperament, likes and dislikes, sensibilities, sensitivities, and so on. It is a fact that no two individuals present with the same set of symptoms, even when the illness is the same. You and your friend, for example, may have the same form of allergic response — sneezing, watery eyes, or itching — but the symptoms will be uniquely different. Your friend may start sneezing by just looking at a bunch of roses [rose allergy], even when it is made of paper. You may start sneezing at the thought of dust particles [dust allergy].
Notwithstanding technological advance, we often see precious time being lost before a diagnosis is made in conventional medicine. When an actual diagnosis emerges, a not-so-serious illness could have turned bad — sometimes, even far too gone for comfort. The scene is obvious — throwing up one’s hand in disgust. “Oh, this is bad. Something has gone ‘unexpectedly’ wrong. We will try to figure this out and correct the problem soon.”
Homeopathy pre-empts such a situation by treating the individual on the basis of their unique, or distinctive, symptoms. This is done by analysing the characteristic nature of the symptoms in the individual, who presents with the illness. This is followed by the safe use of small quantities of a suitable homeopathic remedy that closely resembles the individual’s symptoms. This provides the gentle stimulus for the body to beat illnesses, before they become bothersome, or serious.
WHAT CAN HOMEOPATHY TREAT?
Homeopathy can treat a wide range of diseases such as acne, allergies, acidity, arthritis, breathing disorders, backaches, common children’s ailments, constipation, depression, hair loss, headaches, insomnia, irritable, bowel syndrome [IBS], phobias, psoriasis, urticaria, dermatitis, sinusitis, stress-related disorders, thyroid-related disorders, white patches, hyperacidity, and more.
WHAT IS THERE IN THE REMEDIES, HOW ARE THEY MADE & HOW DO THEY WORK?
Traditionally, homeopathic remedies are derived from a wide variety of plant, animal, and mineral sources. They are produced by the process of serial dilutions, repeated hundreds or thousands of times, with specific motions to liberate the latent therapeutic energies by friction between the molecules of the original medicinal substance and the vehicular molecules. The resulting remedy is extremely dilute, yet bioenergetically potent. A remedy that closely matches your individual characteristics is best selected by your homeopath to evoke a deep physiological response — and, healing effect.
