Homeopathy uses the principle of likes cures like. If a remedy can cause a specific symptom picture in a high dose, then it can cure that same symptom picture in an ultra diluted (low) dose.
The father of Homeopathy spent years proving remedies. He would use all forms of subtances in ultra diluted doses and take note of every single symptom he developed over a prolonged period of time, creating a symptom picture for each individual remedy.
Over more than a century, more and more homeopathic remedies have been discovered in the plant, mineral and animal kingdom, each with it's own unique symptom picture. All these remedies are captured in the homeopathic materia medica, and this enables us to choose a carefully selected remedy based on your own unique individual symptoms, making homeopathic treatment a targeted and tailored approach to health care.
In choosing an individual remedy, we can support the immune system to heal itself.
Getting colds and flu is normal and necessary, for a strong immune system it is 'healthy' to be sick 3-4 x per year. Having a strong immune system that can fight these infection is crucial, without it, we will see recurring colds and flu, sometimes even on a monthly basis. This is where a carefully selected homeopathic remedy can assist in supporting the immune system and fighting colds and flu.
Amongst the colds and flu arsenal are remedies that can assist with fever, body aches and pain, stuffy nose, sore throat, cough, malaise and fatigue. Not only are there remedies to assist when your are ill, there are also remedies that can help prevent colds and flu if you are prone to getting ill under specific conditions, like after exposure to cold winds or cold wet weather, maybe exposure to aircon or heaters at work etc.
I love what homeopathy has to offer my family and I have my little pharmacy on hand for my family's winter colds and flu needs.
