New Year’s Resolutions…Make them? It’s a new year, and for many it is a time for making resolutions.  We see ads in the media for products to help with issues such as weight loss and smoking cessation.   Many of these products may contribute to the cause, but often don’t address the central issue.  Scientists believe that cravings arise from deficient neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and serotonin.  So when resolving to give up white sugar, for example, you are not just dealing with your will-power, but with out-of-balance brain chemistry as well.

Homeopathy always addresses the central issue.  It treats the entire individual, not just a craving, and does it totally naturally.  The homeopathic patient experiences gradual inner balance across all body systems, including the brain.  One of the first indications of a well-chosen homeopathic remedy is a change of mood and energy.  This often seems to translate to a desire to take better care of one’s health; and as a result, the patient begins to eat and exercise to greater effect.   Many homeopathic patients seem to have less of an inner struggle to follow a healthy regime.

So instead of taking that new weight-loss product which overtakes the body’s natural wisdom and possibly causes side effects, try homeopathy.  Your body knows what to do: it just needs a little nudge.

New Fee Schedule

As of February 1, 2010, there will be an increase in fees for initial consultations for new clients (see website for details).  In addition, the minimum remedy cost will be changing from $10 to $12.  For our existing clients, follow-up visit costs are remaining the same.

A Story of Surviving the Holidays with Homeopathy Note: The following story is fictional, and only meant to represent a possible scenario of homeopathic treatment and recovery.   It may take several tries to find a person’s most ideal constitutional remedy, even though earlier remedies help somewhat.  Recovery times also vary due to factors such as vitality of the patient, the length of time chronic illness has been present, and environmental obstacles to cure.

A Holiday Story…

Jane and John Doe and their 5 year old daughter, Jill, were preparing to enter the holiday season.  This was the first time in several years that Jane felt peaceful and was sleeping well during this time.  She credited it to the fact that she had been under constitutional homeopathic treatment for the past year.

The first 6 months of the year she had seen her homeopath several times, receiving her constitutional remedy on occasion.  Her migraines had virtually disappeared during that time, and she was feeling less stressful.   After the initial 6 months, she was doing so well that she stopped making regular appointments and only called her homeopath as needed.  She also noticed that when everyone around her was getting the H1N1 influenza this past fall, she managed to avoid it.

Now the holidays were approaching.  Jane had been meaning to take Jill in for constitutional treatment, but it just hadn’t happened yet.  Then Jill came down with an extremely painful ear infection.  Jill’s ear pain was so intense, that she screamed every time her ear was touched.  She demanded to be carried around the house, and yet was not happy with anything her parents did to appease her.  Jane called her homeopath who in turn suggested giving Jill Chamomilla 30C every 2 to 4 hours.  At the first dose, Jill fell asleep, and when she awoke was much less irritable.  The pain was much less, and within 24 hours she was dancing to Christmas music, nearly her old self.

John was not so sure about homeopathy.  He saw that his wife was better, but he thought that could just be a placebo effect.  Then he fell off the roof hanging Christmas lights.  The bushes broke his fall, but he was pretty banged up and sore.  Jane gave him Arnica 200C every few hours, and the next day he felt great-and ready to go chop down their Christmas tree.

He got to try homeopathy again after the office holiday party.  He had a bit too much of the spiked punch, and woke with a ferocious hangover: he had a headache aggravated by noise and light, and felt like he had to vomit.  Jane called her homeopath who suggested he take Nux Vomica 30C every 2 to 4 hours.  With the first dose the nausea disappeared and the headache lessened.  By that evening he felt a little tired, but otherwise great.
That year John made a New Year’s resolution:  to make an appointment with a homeopath to get constitutional treatment.
