Homeopathy Utilizes Natural Substances
Developed in 1796 by a German physician, Samuel Hahnemann, homeopathy utilizes microscopic doses of natural substances to treat acute and chronic conditions. The natural substances are derived from minerals, animals, and/or plants. They are then significantly diluted so that little, if any, trace of the original substance is left.
The fundamentals principles of homeopathy differ from traditional medicine. In a conventional setting, doctors treat a patient’s symptoms, using medications to mask the disease. This often leads to unwanted side effects, prolonged suffering, and additional damage.
Homeopathy addresses the underlying cause of a patient’s symptoms. This approach allows naturopathic doctors to help patients feel better without suffering additional short-term or long-term side effects.
It does so by prescribing a remedy shown to produce the same set of symptoms from which a patient is suffering. The remedy utilizes microscopic doses of the irritant, allowing patients’ bodies the chance to naturally learn to fight off and handle the irritant. This method is known as the law of similars.
What Can You Expect During a Homeopathic Consultation?
Homeopathy views each patient as a dynamic, responsive and health-oriented organism. As such, any symptoms your body may be experiencing are physical, emotional and mental ways your body is dealing with an unfamiliar substance.
During your homeopathic consultation, a Premiere Integrative naturopathic doctor will spend approximately 60 to 90 minutes learning about you. They will gather details about your illness, your health history, the health history of your family, and your current lifestyle.
Patients are strongly encouraged to share all aspects of their life, even if they seem unimportant or unusual. It is often the subtle nuances that make us unique which helps your naturopathic doctor identify the correct remedy.
What Will Happen When You Take Your Homeopathic Remedy?
Because no two patients are alike, no two patients have exactly the same response to any course of treatment. Even when two patients develop the exact same symptoms, the necessary treatment and their response to the remedies can vary.
After taking a prescribed homeopathic remedy, you may or may not notice an immediate change in your symptoms. In some cases, your symptoms could improve drastically or they could appear to worsen or you could develop new symptoms.
Any response should be closely monitored and can often indicate that the remedy is working. If, at any time, you are concerned about the changes you are experiencing after taking your prescribed treatment, you should notify your doctor immediately.
How Quickly Can a Homeopathic Treatment Plan Improve My Symptoms?
How quickly your symptoms improve depends on a variety of factors, including but not limited to:
- Your body’s unique capacity for healing
- The severity of your symptoms
- The duration you’ve experienced your symptoms
- The extent and type of illness you’re experiencing
- Any external lifestyle or environmental factors contributing to your illness
Well-Matched Remedies Can Offer More Immediate Improvement
