HOMEOPATHY
What can it treat?
Whom can Homeopathy help,
and what can it treat?
Homoeopathy can help many different
people from children to the elderly and everyone in between! People
who are on conventional medicine can use homoeopathy to come off drugs
or reduce the need for too many drugs. It can also help with many mental
and physical problems, such as the ones below:
Mental problems include all forms of depression,
anxiety, stress, mood swings, paranoia, PMS related problems, menopausal
problems and many more.
Physical problems can include digestive problems,
bowel, stomach and oesophageal, eczema, asthma, rheumatism, arthritis,
general aches and pains, sinusitis, migraines, headaches, PMS, menopausal
problems, respiratory, lung, musculo-skeletal, sciatica, etc..
If you wonder if homoeopathy
might be able to help you, please call the Edinburgh Homoeopathic
Centre and ask to speak with Jonathan
Clogstoun-Willmott.

A CASE OF CONFUSION
A 47 year old female was experiencing very
painful migraines, to the extent that she had nose-bleeds and blood-shot
eyes, high blood pressure and was very irritable. She was going through
the menopause and experiencing a peculiar symptom of pain in her veins.
Her doctor did not know what this, but it was useful in finding the
appropriate homeopathic remedy for her. Within one month of starting
homeopathic treatment all her symptoms began improving and after several
further treatments she had no further migraines.
A CASE OF TONSILLITIS
A 47 year old woman rang:
she had been a patient many years before but had moved so had not been
seen for some time. She had tonsillitis and did not want to have antibiotics
because of previous experience of them. The pain felt like something
stuck in her throat, like an apple skin. She had white pus on her right
tonsil which was very swollen. The left tonsil was red, but less swollen,
and had no pus. The whole area felt irritated. Her throat was hot and
dry, and pain went to her nose if she swallowed. Cold water drinks
helped the throat, and she was thirsty, sipping water all the time.
But she herself felt cold, and preferred warmth. Before the onset,
she had had a bad earache, and the whole problem had begun when the
weather got cold. The pain was worse in the evening. Her throat felt
dry in the morning, almost sticky, and she wanted to drink (cold water).
Sleep was all right. She also had pain in her eyelids. She had a headache
in the very centre of her forehead, right about the root of her nose:
a dull ache which was better if pressed, and better if she lay down
and closed her eyes. The throat was hot, itchy, and croaky and prickly
especially when talking. She had not sweated at all: she just felt
colder than she would have expected, and was more than usually sensitive
to the cold. She felt irritated and tired, and a little agitated. There
were no other pains. Her period had just ended, having been slightly
heavier than usual – she had no idea why. When asked whether
there was anything else, she said that it probably wasn’t important
but that during all this she found that when she looked up, she saw
colours in front of her eyes.
After starting the remedy,
she immediately began to feel better, and all the symptoms, which
had been gradually worsening for about five days, began to improve,
and had almost gone after 36 hours when she first rang to report
progress. It had gone completely by the next day.
The remedy for her was chosen
not because she had tonsillitis but because of what made her reaction
to tonsillitis individual to her. The exact symptoms which led to
the precise homeopathic remedy specially for her here (Lycopodium)
were these:
- although she herself felt
cold, she wanted to sip cold liquids for her throat
- the right hand
tonsil was worse
- the headache was in the very centre of her forehead
- she saw colours
when she looked up
(JNCW)
Do please realise that this remedy would only
suit a small number of people suffering from tonsillitis. Each case
must be considered separately.
