Professional Care or Self-Care?

Homeopathy is amazing in its potential and versatility as a health care solution.  It is one of the few healthcare disciplines that can be used by both individuals and Professionals.  While using homeopathy on your own, or on the advice of a friend or other health professional, may seem like a good idea, it can have its drawbacks and challenges.

One of the brilliant things about homeopathy is that it treats a person as an individual, so that five people with sore throats may each get a different homeopathic remedy as indicated by their specific symptoms associated with their presentation of the disease.  This leads to the drawback that a remedy that might work for your friend may not, and most likely won’t, work for you.   There is no “one remedy” for headaches, or sore throats, or any other health complaint or disease.

Homeopathy is a system of medicine.  It is grounded in philosophy and backed up by over 200 years of practice.  Choosing the appropriate remedy for any health complaint, whether it be acute or chronic, can involve a lot of skill to sift through the multitude of symptoms generated by the over 8000 remedies in the homeopathic Materia Medica.  This is learned only after many years of formal study, clinical practice and with having access to the proper resources.

So, while homeopathic remedies are inherently considered safe and non-toxic due to the way they are prepared, what makes them truly effective is the way each one is applied in the unique circumstances in which it is indicated and in the right dosage for that person.

So, before accepting a casual recommendation for a homeopathic medicine for your health complaint, ask yourself:

Ø  Is this situation appropriate for self-care?

Ø  Does this person have proper training and knowledge to make this recommendation?

Ø  Will this person be there if I need to follow up after taking the homeopathic medicine?

Ø  Would it be beneficial for me to seek the help of a Professional Homeopath?
