animal, vegetable and mineral. It is important to understand
though that once it has been made into a homeopathic remedy, even remedies that are made from toxic substances
are rendered safe.
Homeopathy is based on the important fact that the body is always trying to balance itself thus healing itself
(i.e., maintaining homeostasis). When a person is sick with a fever many believe that the body is
burning out
the toxins. With cold symptoms the mucous of the cough, sneeze or blowing of the nose is transporting the toxins
out of the body in an effort to regain balanced health. Respect for the body's natural ability to balance itself
is imperative to understanding true healing.
It is also important to separate the symptoms of illness or the imbalance, for example, pain, diarrhea, etc., from
the illness itself. Allopathic (conventional or Western medicine) treats the symptoms themselves, and thus assumes
that once the symptoms are gone the person is healthy. Homeopathy is quite different. It is based on the understanding
that symptoms are only manifestations of the illness, and evidence of the body's struggle to restore balance and
health. Homeopathic practitioners therefore look for the symptoms only as guideposts to what is going on in the
body and not as the problem itself. Homeopathy is truly holistic medicine in that it treats the whole person, not
simply the illness or its symptoms.
This is very different from allopathic medicine (meaning "opposite suffering") wherein a drug is given
which causes the opposite to happen within the body. As in the case of the cold mentioned before, a typical prescription
might include: an antihistamine, a decongestant and/or other cold type medicines to squelch the symptoms, producing
opposite in the body for relief but not correcting the original imbalance.
Many times (as in my kits here) you will find a number of different remedies together. There are some remedies
that are often used for the same thing and will be put together in one remedy. It is not that they will work together,
rather that the individual
s symptoms dictate which is the corresponding (matching) remedy that will work for that particular individual,
which will match the symptoms of the person taking the remedy. Some homeopathic remedies are directed to certain
parts of the body to direct the healing to take place there, such as you will find in my homeopathic remedies with
the remedy Intestinum Crassum, a remedy made from the healthy tissue of the large intestine. Also in these combinations
of remedies you will find Bach remedies and remedies proven by Dr. Patterson. Dr. Bach was a bacteriologist in
London who discovered that certain intestinal germs belonging to non lactose fermenting gram negative coli, had
a close connection with chronic disease and its cure. These germs are present in both healthy and sick individuals,
but are pathogenic in those that are ill. Years later he potentised the vaccine according to the Homoeopathic principle,
administered and cured many patients. The first full preparation of clinical proving was done in 1929 by Thomas
Dishington on Dysentery co.
Dr. John Patterson, (1890-1955) a co-worker of Bach concentrated on continuing this research after 1929. He examined
more than 20,000 stool specimens and conducted research of homeopathy and bowel disease for over 20 years. He found
that the balance of the bowel flora must be returned for an individual to attain and maintain health. These are
the symptom and system specific remedies used in the homeopathic formulas.
By balancing the body Homeopathy can address many different issues safely and effectively without the side effects
that accompany many other methods of treatment. Homeopathy works WITH the body
s natural defense system addressing the underlying cause rather than suppressing the symptoms and has an incredible
ability to heal and balance the digestive tract and many types of bowel issues.
