There are many reasons and benefits in going to a Homeopath – but here are the 5 most common reasons why individuals go.

Headaches and Migraines

A lot of individuals suffer from headaches and migraines. In some cases it can even be debilitating for the individual. A homeopath works with you to understand your migraines or headaches in their totality. What exactly does it feel like for the patient? What makes it better or worse? Are there any triggers? A Homeopath will then prescribe a remedy that encompasses those symptoms. The remedies help to reduce the intensity, frequency and duration for the symptoms.

Skin conditions (eczema, psoriasis)

The skin is our biggest eliminating organ and often skin afflictions are the body’s way of letting you know that something is going on, on a deeper level. Skin conditions can have many contributing factors as to why they are manifesting in the body, such as stress, dietary issues or environmental sensitivities. A Homeopath’s job is to understand the root cause of why the skin conditions are developing. When a Homeopath prescribes at that root cause, it helps to reawaken the body’s immune system and ultimately start the process of healing.

Mental health issues (depression, bi-polar, manic depressive, anxiety)

Homeopath’s work heavily to understand the mental and emotional characteristics of an individual, such as their stresses in life. It’s a great system of medicine that can effectively address the symptoms of depression, bi-polar, anxiety and many other mental health issues.

Autoimmune disorders

Autoimmune disorders are conditions that occur when the body’s immune system is attacking itself (diseased tissue, as well as the healthy tissue). Individuals can undergo both conventional and holistic therapies to reduce incidences of flare-ups. Flare-ups generally occur in incidences of acute or chronic stress. Homeopathy is especially beneficial because it helps individuals to manage stress. It’s also a therapy that is completely safe to use in conjunction with other therapies.

Digestive disturbances (gas, bloating, constipation, IBS)

There is has been a lot of research lately in trying to understand the gut and digestive disturbances. Within some of that research, MDs have discovered this Mind-Gut connection. Where the Mind and the Gut are in constant communication with each other, and how our moods affect our gut and overall health. Therefore, when you treat just the physical symptoms (i.e the gas, bloating, constipation, IBS symptoms, etc), you are only treating part of the picture. Homeopathy helps to balance out both mind and gut by understand how the physical, emotional, and mental symptoms are connected.

We live in a society that is constantly “ON” and going from one activity to the next. There is no end to the scheduling chaos; whether it’s picking the kids up from school, taking them to hockey, going to the gym, or finishing that big work proposal due tomorrow. On top of our very busy lifestyles, we are also being over stimulated by electronics, social media, and connected to everyone and everything at all times. With very little down time and off time, our habits start to impact our health. Our bodies react to all this by lowering our immune system and ultimately making us feel run down and sick.

Homeopathy is a complete system to medicine designed to re-establish balance and to kick-start the body’s own immune system. Homeopathy was founded in the late 1700s, and ever since then has been one of the leading forms of medicine used globally to treat acute and chronic illnesses.

Homeopaths assert that illness stems from mental and emotional factors (stressors) that we experience in our day-to-day lives. The physical symptoms, like headaches, let us know that something is out of balance or wrecking havoc in the body. It’s a Homeopath’s duty to understand the health of an individual physically, emotionally and mentally. Everyone is different and we don’t all experience life in the same ways. Our symptoms are often a reflection of that. By understanding what makes each person unique, Homeopaths are able to prescribe individualized treatment plans that best suit your needs. It’s important for medicine to be individualized because what works for you might not work for me.

Homeopathic remedies are derived from nature, and are given at a very small dose – making them not only effective, but also safe to take for adults, children, babies, even plants and animals. They don’t interact with other medications and don’t cause harm.
