Always keep in mind that homeopathic remedies are energy medicines, not physical. Many of us have grown up taking physical medicines which act on the physical plane in our bodies. Even those that are prescribed for emotional issues (eg: depression) still function by acting upon the physical chemistry of the body.
Homeopathic remedies, on the other hand act directly on the vital force to rebalance a person's whole system, mental, emotional, spiritual and physical. Never stop taking prescription drugs for chronic conditions when taking a homeopathic remedy. The homeopathic remedy will work fine regardless.
Remedies are usually given in the form of pillules or liquid. A remedy's name is followed by a number and a letter eg: Arnica 30C. The ‘30C' indicates the strength or potency of the remedy.
Common potencies for treating acute conditions are 6C, 12C, 30C and 200C. If available use a 30C as this potency will usually work quickly and gently. Pharmacies often stock homeopathic remedies in 6C but if you buy a homeopathic first aid kit the remedies will normally be in 30C potency. To use 200C potencies get some experience under your belt first or have them prescribed professionally by a homeopathic practitioner.
Treating yourself and your family at home homeopathically is great for 2 very good reasons:
-
It is very inexpensive, and
-
Symptoms do not get suppressed, rather the body is strengthened to heal itself. In the long term this promotes a healthy immune system!
If you wish to embark on the exciting journey of treating everyday conditions at home yourself with homeopathic remedies you will need a good remedy prescribing guide and a homeopathic first aid kit (click on the online shop). With experience you will develop confidence in recognizing remedy pictures and using the actual remedies. If you are sensible in your approach the two most likely outcomes will be improvement of symptoms or no change at all. So don't be afraid to have a go. Homeopathic treatment will be one of the greatest gifts you can give to both yourself and your family.
