Action of Remedies
All homeopathic
remedies are FDA approved as over-the-counter medications and produced
in homeopathic pharmacies under stringent conditions. They are made
from animal, mineral or vegetable substances that are highly diluted and
succussed (shaken) repeatedly. They are safe to be taken by infants,
children, adults, elderly and also pets. Remedies cause no side effects. |
|
Conventional drugs
work counter to your body’s natural immune system. They are intended to
“kill” bacteria, stop or reduce the production of certain natural
hormones or counteract the production of naturally occurring substances
in your body in order to quell symptoms. |

Homeopathic
remedies work with your body to engage your own system to heal itself.
Your body possesses miraculous intelligence. Its constant goal is to
attain greater health and balance. When you first take your remedy, you
may notice nothing at all.
Or, you might notice a very brief increase in your original symptoms. We
call this an “aggravation” and consider it a great sign that your body
has recognized the remedy. This should be brief and when it stops, an
increased feeling of wellness prevails. There are never any side-effects
from homeopathic remedies. Whatever you experience is your own body’s
individual response. It may respond in a number of possible ways. 1) a
slight aggravation prior to a healing response, 2) an immediate and
clear reduction in symptoms, 3) no discernable response at all, or 4)
the temporary addition of minor symptoms you have never noticed before.

It is very important to report what you notice to your homeopath at the
first follow up appointment. By doing so, it will be easier to assess
what is taking place and what needs to happen next. Healing takes place
in a very logical order according to “Herring’s Law.” As it takes
place, I will share with you what I see and help you to understand how
miraculous the human body, mind and spirit can be.
