"A profane man can have no more idea of the sentiments of a gentle, highly religious woman, than can a lobster."

~James Tyler Kent, 1849-1916
(American homeopath and physician and one of the forerunners of American homeopathy.)

Homeopathy

Editor´s Note from Judith Hanna Doshi: Joette offers parents a safe, effective and gentle way to relieve their child's suffering from teething. She describes the all-too familiar indications for the homeopathic remedy Chamomilla and how to administer it, as well as a protocol of alternating Chamomilla with the tissue salt Calc phos. As Joette says, the homeopathic approach to teething is a "smart substitute for drugs."

Skin is amazing. It’s flaunted, ogled, and tanned within an inch of its life. It’s our body’s largest (and heaviest!) organ, but gets taken for granted until something goes wrong. Still, it releases toxins, keeps our innards warm, juicy and safe, and continuously renews itself. It even finds time to make Vitamin D!...

Editor´s Note from Judith Hanna Doshi: In our fast paced, stress filled culture, skin ailments like acne and eczema--just to name two--are very common among susceptible people, even adults. In her superb article, Pamela explains the homeopathic interpretation of chronic skin ailments as a reflection of a deeper, systemic imbalance  that needs to be treated wholistically. Of particular note is Pamela's discussion of the process of healing as it pertains to skin issues--slow but sure!

I was 31, married, mother to a young child.  Recently moved from New York City to my husband’s hometown of Vancouver, British Columbia, suddenly I began to experience excruciating, burning pain stabbing from my right jaw across the cheek to my nose...

Editor's Note: Novice homeopaths often gravitate to remedies like Sulphur, Graphites and Arsenicum Album when treating cases of eczema or impetigo. Susan Drury's case is a wonderful example of how an often overlooked remedy, Daphne Mezereum, although best known for skin conditions, also is an excellent remedy for neuralgia. In this case, Mezereum, successfully treated a case of trigeminal neuralgia and improved the mental and emotional state of the patient.

by Miranda Castro FSHom, RSHom (NA), CCH

I was asked recently whether there were any circumstances where homeopathy might be contra-indicated for pregnant women. The question centered on a woman in her first trimester (3 months pregnant) who had been involved in a car accident and was in a state of partial shock...

Editor´s Note from Judith Hanna Doshi: Here's a great testament to the homeopathic remedy Arnica (and its close counterpart Bellis). As well as discussing when both remedies are indicated in pregnancy, Miranda demonstrates its amazing usefulness in her own experience of injury. As always, the choice of remedy is based on the individual symptoms, the hallmark of Homeopathy.
