TOP TEN REASONS TO USE HOMEOPATHY




“Spirit is the life.
Mind is the builder.
Physical is the result.”
–Edgar Cayce

1. NO HARMFUL SIDE EFFECTS
A special preparation process called potentization refines the medicines to remove any toxic side-effects. It is safe for babies and during pregnancy and menopause. However it is advised to be under the care of a qualified homeopathic practitioner if you are pregnant.

2. GENTLE
Homeopathy works by stimulating the body’s own natural defense mechanism to heal itself. Although gentle the results may be powerful and long lasting.

3. HOLISTIC
Homeopathy takes into account the whole person. Often only one remedy may address all your complaints.

4. INEXPENSIVE
Homeopathic medicines cost surprisingly less than allopathic prescription medication. The homeopathic medicines are intended to boost the immune system, making you stronger and less likely to get sick.

5. PREVENTATIVE TREATMENT
By boosting the body’s immune system, homeopathy can help improve a person’s resistance to illness and infections.

6. NO ANIMAL TESTING*
Humans respond differently to medication than animals do. All homeopathic medication is tested on healthy humans. The symptoms that a substance taken over time elicits in a healthy person, are shown to be exactly those that can be cured in a sick person suffering from those symptoms.

7. EASY TO TAKE
Homeopathic medicines are given either as small pleasant tasting tablets which dissolve in the mouth, or in liquid form. Granules, powders or drops are available for babies and children.

8. PATIENT INVOLVEMENT
The homeopath will ask many questions, not only about the symptoms which are bothering an individual, but how they react to the condition, as well as wanting to know about general health and lifestyle.

9. INVALUABLE FOR FIRST AID
Homeopathic medicines can be safely used in the home or workplace to treat simple problems-such as bruises, minor burns, sprains, insect bites and gastric upsets. However more serious or chronic complaints should be treated by a qualified practitioner.

10. THE MEDICINE OF THE FUTURE
With over 6000 homeopathic medicines in existence and new homeopathic medicines being discovered all the time, Homeopathy is a growing art. However unlike allopathic medicine that takes drugs off the market every year as new side-effects are discovered, homeopaths still use the same medicines they were using 200 years ago with new medicines to broaden their scope. Scientists are only now discovering breakthroughs in quantum physics that helps us to develop a deeper understanding of homeopathy, as it was used 200 years ago.

Homeopathy and Obama's New Health Care Plan




Obama wants to put a cap on the price big pharma can charge for new, advanced drugs meant for treating disease. How about homeopathy? It is inexpensive, safe and easy to use for many diseases that are very costly to Medicare, insurance companies and patients.

This is the time for homeopaths to get involved and tell the new government how important it is to consider homeopathy in the new health care plan. Simple studies could be set up where parents can elect to choose homeopathy for ADD, Autism, ADHD in towns where the cost of taking care of children with these disabilities is seriously reducing the other services the town can provide.

It would cost so little to implement homeopathic clinics to take care of some of these epidemics that are poorly treated by conventional medicine. Make your voice count write comments, suggestions and start to make homeopathy a household word!
