Classical Homeopathy

The first appointment with your Homeopath is the most important. The Homeopath will spend between 1 and half to 2.5 hours with you. During this time, you’ll be asked about your health concerns and how they affect you plus a bit about your health history.

We work with you to reach your health goals and attend to your health concerns by finding the right Homeopathic Remedy and by coaching you through important decisions. Homeopathic remedies work toward restoring health rather than masking or suppressing symptoms. The result is felt by the mind, body and spirit.

After the first consultation, appointments are 45 minutes.

Talk to one of our Homeopaths about Treatment with You In Mind. Call us at 604-568-4663 or email us at info@accessnaturalhealing.com.

Homeopathic Immunization - Alternative to Vaccines?

/
International Research Demonstrating the Validity of Homoeoprophylaxis
Homoeoprophylaxis was first used by Dr Samuel Hahnemann in 1798 to prevent Scarlet Fever. It has been used in many countries since then to successfully immunise millions of people. This use has been well documented. However some question whether there is objective evidence that the method works (everyone agrees that it is non toxic). In recent years two pieces of evidence have emerged that will satisfy any objective person, although not of course people who have drawn conclusions based on conjecture, and refuse to study the material available.

The Brazilian Experience
In 1998 there was an outbreak of meningococcal meningitis in a region of Brazil. Many doctors in that country are also homeopaths. There was no vaccine available at the time, so a group of doctors who worked in the region used the meningococcal Nosode to immunize 65,826 children. Another 23,539 children in the region were not immunized. The doctors followed the two groups for 12 months. After 6 months the efficacy of homeoprophylaxis was 95%, and after 12 months was 91%. A complete and statistically rigorous report was published in a leading peer reviewed Homeopathic journal, and is available for study (see reference following).

Homoeoprophylaxis on the Farm

Homoeoprophylaxis on the Farm
Tony Pinkus
Director and Homoeopathic Pharmacist, Ainsworths, London, UK The credibility of homoeopathy as a serious alternative to conventional medicine needs to be recognized and experienced at a grass root level in order to persuade a larger audience of its value. Empirocal evidence from commercial dairy and sheep farms demonstrates there is wide scope from veterinary use of remedies to engender a reappraisal of homoeopathy for disease control. Homoeopathy as both a logical alternative to conventional medicine and an economic imperative in commercial sheep and dairy farms can be demonstrated by the introduction of homoeoprophylaxis and treatment with nosodes as the initial learning step for farmers. Pilot studies on two separate farms within the UK demonstrate a significant and maintained reduction in somatic cell count at both a herd and individual level. A study on a third farm demonstrates the rapid resolution of a common, stress related viral infection in sheep after treatment with a nosode. As a result of this work, over 5000 UK farms have used homoeopathy for prophylaxis and treatment of commercial animal stock, including cattle, pigs, sheep, goats and chickens.

Placenta Eating

/
Eating the placenta may replenish various nutrients (mostly iron) lost when giving birth. One recipe for placenta stew is

3/4 placenta
1 potato
4 table spoons fresh parsley
2 carrots
3 cellery
1 zucchini
1 tomato
1 onion
Chop up the Ingredients. Roll the placenta in a mix of one table spoon of flour, one teaspoon salt, a half teaspoon powered paprika, some ground clove, some ground pepper and 6-8 coriander seeds. Saute the placenta in two tablespoons oil, pour in the vegetables and about a litre of water. Allow to boil and then let simmer for an hour. Enjoy!
Warning - placenta may be odourous!

PS If you make your placenta into a homeopathic remedy, you can consume it at any time and you don't have to worry about taste or odour. It just looks adn taste like every other Homeopathic Remedy... a little sweet.

Eczema Homeopathy Article

/
I have experience using homeopathy for my eczema and have had amazing results. It inspired me to become a Homeopath and now I have had successes in treating eczema. Children respond really well and quickly to homeopathic remedies for eczema. Stop the problem before it diverges into more progressive problems such as asthma or other related chronic diseases.

The medical community has discovered there are specific patterns of diseases. As a Homeopath, the way I see it is that if you start as a child with a susceptibility to having skin issues such as eczema that there is a likelihood that you will develop other related diseases such as asthma or chronic bronchitis later in life. This only happens if the eczema is not appropriately healed in a way that it won't come back. Unfortunately, convention medicine's answer to eczema is cortisone which works by suppressing the natural immune response of your body.

When your system is trying to move through a problem, you may never know exactly what the core problem is. What we do know is that your body is designed to attempt to heal itself of the eczema or other skin problem. This is what symptoms are. Symptoms like a skin rash response is the expression that your body is giving to attempt to adjust through a problem. Some people say that eczema is related to liver problems, some say its an allergy, some say its a lack of certain important metals/elements in your body. Whichever it may be for you, homeopathy can make sure that its is dealt with at the core level of where the problem is. This way, there is a permanence to the results and you won't have to rely on specific creams, drugs, supplements or elimination of certain foods in your diet or exposure to certain substances.

Homeopathy is a very gentle and natural approach for eczema that supports your own body to move forward in the direction that it is attempting to accomplish towards healing itself.

Eczema Homeopathy - Give it a try as a good holistic option for eczema to help you find permanent results for eczema and other skin problems.

Homeopathic Services - when you need a Professional Classical Homeopath with the letters DCH, CCH or HMC?

Recently at a presentation I was speaking at, it became very obvious what a confusing struggle it is to know when you've found the appropriate holistic practitioner for your specific health concern. In Vancouver, North Vancouver, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, East Vancouver, Burnaby and all of the Lower Mainland, this is a particularly challenging. The positive aspect of the fact that this is such a challenge in Vancouver is that there are many holistic practitioners to choose from.  There are many highly qualified Homeopaths, Naturopaths, TCM practitioners, TCM Doctors, Acupuncturists, Shiatsu, Craniosacral Therapists, Osteopaths, Reiki Masters etc... in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. Within the different modalities to choose from, there are various levels of education. Usually this is indicated by the letters behind the practitioners' name.

When choosing a well educated and experienced Homeopath, look for the following letters: DCH, CCH and HMC. They will often be shown somewhat in this order. The significance of these letters is that they have received four years of up to date/contemporary education. That is what the DCH stands for (Diploma of Classical Homeopathy). I will define the significance of the term 'Classical Homeopath' in another article. The CCH signifies that the Homeopath has completed the Board exams for Certification as a Classical Homeopath that apply to all North American Homeopaths. The CCH letters are very important when looking for a properly trained Homeopath. CCH stands for Certified Classical Homeopath.

In the Vancouver area (specifically Bowen Island and West Vancouver), we are fortunate to have an upper level Homeopath and Professional Teacher, Louis Klein. Between the Vancouver Homeopathic Academy (DCH) with Murray Feldman and Louis Klein's Homeopathic Master Clinician  (HMC) courses, the Vancouver area is brimming with the best trained Homeopaths in North America. Louis Klein's HMC course is an excellent three year follow up to the Diploma years. After these seven years of focussed, professional training - a Classical Homeopath is well equipped to help you with any range of health concerns - even the ones that conventional medical doctors might not know how to address (undiagnosed).

Seek Homeopathic Treatment from a Classically trained, professional homeopath for any chronic or acute health concerns. At Access Natural Healing Centre, we have the highest calibre, professional Homeopaths to serve you and your families natural health care needs.

Placenta Preservation: Make Homeopathic Remedies from your placenta& other birth products

Divine Placenta: Placenta Preservation

There are a variety of methods to preserve the sacred
placenta so that you have an incredible keepsake
to honour the place where love grew.

We create the placenta. It homes and feeds our
babies and we give birth to it. It has a sacred
connection to the child it nourishes for
months and for this reason it is treasured.

Access Natural Healing teamed with Placenta Encapsulators to
prepare your placenta for ingesting (also
known as placentophagy), burial or for
keepsake. Placenta contains estrogen and
progesterone, and by consuming it the placenta
restores hormone levels lost in childbirth. It has
been found to reduce hemorrhage and most
importantly it is known to help reduce the
possibility of postpartum depression.

You can preserve your placenta for postpartum and beyond.

Why have Homeopathic Remedies from your placenta & other birth products (colostrum, hind milk etc... )?
Preserve your placenta for life:
Helps women with:
post partum pains, depression, low milk supply and later on in life it helps women in menopause, dry eyes, and skin disorders

Given to the child, the Homeopathic Remedy made from the placenta can help that person with colic, indigestion, and problems with nursing. This information can be found in the book "Placenta: The Gift of Life. The role of the placenta in different cultures, and how to prepare and use it as medicine."

Despite, the Finlay Institute is a centre dedicated to development and production of vaccines; we also bring our WHO qualified facilities for all homeopaths and homeopathic medicine. The Finlay Institute acts as supporting institution for research, production and development of high quality homeopathic products. However, according with the social objective addressing prevention of infectious diseases, we are focused on homeo prophylaxis as strategy to attenuate the impact of preventable diseases on developing world, the ones that need it the most.
Thus, development and evaluation of nosodes, appears to be our main approach to fill up the breakthrough on current conventional strategies based on vaccination. Similarly with vaccination interventions, massive applications of prophylactic nosodes give rise to a greater impact on population health compared with individualized therapies. In addition, the easy administration and low economics resources needed, become this alternative really suitable and accessible for developing countries and almost the best for emergency situations comprising epidemic outbreaks and natural disasters. The Cuban experiences of massively administrated nosodes supports it use as promising solution to confront epidemiological dangerous situations.
On October November 2007, three provinces of the eastern region of Cuba were affected by strong rainfalls causing floods of big areas and several damages to sanitary and health systems. The risk of leptospirosis infection raised extremely dangerous levels with about 2 million of peoples exposed to potentially contaminated water.
Considering this situation, the Finlay Institute prepared a leptospira nosode 200 CH using 4 circulating strains and following international quality standards. A multidisciplinary team travelled to the affected regions to conduct the massive administration of the nosode. Coordinated action with public health system infrastructures allowed the administration of a preventive treatment consisting in two doses (7 9 days apart) of the nosode to about 2,4 million of people (4,8 million of doses). The coverage of the intervention rose up to 95% percent of total population of the three provinces at risk.
The epidemiology surveillance after the intervention showed a dramatic decrease of morbidity two weeks after and a reduction to cero of mortality of hospitalized patient. The number of confirmed leptospirosis cases remains at low levels and bellow the expected levels according with the trends and rain regimens. A reinforcing application was given after the hit of the hurricane IKE but using the nosode diluted up to 10 MC. Strict epidemiologic surveillance is carried out on this provinces. Up to date result will be presented. The results supported the design of new strategies for leptospirosis control. This experience could be extended to other diseases and other countries. The Finlay Institute is offering our facilities and specialists to spread this alternative to all regions needing emergent alternatives for epidemic control and prevention.

"Breastfeeding should continue for up to two years of age or beyond," the World Health Organization recommends

/
(NaturalNews) "Breastfeeding should continue for up to two years of age or beyond," the World Health Organization recommends -- yet in many countries such as the United Kingdom or United States, breastfeeding a child past the age of a few months is still considered odd or deviant, even by some doctors.

"One health professional just this week said to me that there is no nutritional value to feeding a child once they are eating solids from around six months," said breastfeeding advocate Rachel Maudsley.

The benefits of breastfeeding for both infant health and the mother-infant relationship are well-established, and the majority of human cultures throughout history have breast-fed past the age of one. Yet many government health regulations focus on encouraging breastfeeding only for the first six months, out of fear that expecting more from women might scare them out of breastfeeding entirely.

Already, only 25 percent of British mothers are breastfeeding six months after giving birth, down from 76 percent immediately after birth.

"There is a lot of guilt surrounding breastfeeding," said Maggie Fisher, chair of the Health Visitors' Forum. "We want to support people to make healthy choices, but they've also got to do what's comfortable and feels right for them."

"In practice, as a health visitor, my biggest problem is getting parents to start breastfeeding, and if you can get them going beyond six months you really think you're winning."

But breastfeeding advocates like Maudsley and Ann Sinnott, author of "Breastfeeding Older Children," argue that with increased education and support, many more women would indeed breastfeed for longer.

"I went to a breastfeeding group when [my daughter] was two," Maudsley said, "and some of the mums of the newborns were shocked. They said: 'Oh my goodness, you're still feeding her?' They didn't know you could feed a child of that age."
