“When I first went to see El, I was having excruciatingly painful periods. My hormones were all out of whack and I was feeling really run down and tired all the time. Within three weeks of receiving my first constitutional remedy, I was surprised by the changes right away; my cramps were far less intense and only lasted a day, on and off. I also noticed an improvement in the quality of sleep I was getting and overall, I just felt more able to handle my stress and move through emotional obstacles. During the following months I have continued to see improvements on several levels including a healthier cycle and less painful cramping. I’m so glad I found homeopathy and El! The results have been astounding and El has been amazing to work with. I feel genuinely cared for and heard when I visit with her and I believe this is the moment the healing begins! When El chooses a remedy for me I can trust that she has made a well thought out and careful decision. As they say, the proof is in the pudding and the results I’ve had have been astonishing, proof enough for both me and my partner. We plan to start a family later this year and we both feel more at ease about it knowing that we have El and homeopathy on our side.”

Common Questions about Homeopathy; How does it work?

What is homeopathy and how does it work?

Homeopathy is a medical philosophy and practice based on the idea that the body has the ability to heal itself.

Homeopathic medicine views symptoms of illness as normal responses of the body as it attempts to regain health, and is based on the idea that "like cures like." That is, if a substance causes a symptom in a healthy person, giving the person a very small amount of the same substance may cure the illness. A homeopathic dose enhances the body's normal healing and self-regulatory processes (a process known as hormesis).

Your homeopath will use pills or liquid mixtures (solutions) containing only a little of an active ingredient (usually a plant or mineral) for treatment of disease. These are known as highly diluted or "potentiated" substances. There is evidence to show that homeopathic medicines have helpful effects.

Homeopathy was founded in the late 1700s in Germany and has since been integrated into the national health care systems of other countries including the United Kingdom, Scotland, India, France, Cuba, Tanzania, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Ethiopia, and Mexico.

Testimonial

“I had one of the most productive days at home since I can’t remember when. I was not distracted in any way, shape or form by usual ‘cravings’ associated with my addiction. It was a very refreshing day. Several times I felt a flush of chemicals (perhaps endorphins) in the brain similar to what I seek through my ‘acting out’ behavior except this time it felt very natural - and uplifting. A very stellar and inspiring day. This is what sobriety is to me - not fighting with my body or my mind. I am going to bed now with genuine feelings of satisfaction rather than the usual pain, shame, and guilt. I look forward to more days like today. Thank you for your remedies and support.”

Homeopathic vaccines: an alternative.

For parents who choose not to have their children vaccinated, Vancouver's Access Natural Healing Holistic Health Centre is now offering homeopathic immunization program.

BY CANWEST COMMUNITY PUBLISHING SEPTEMBER 29, 2008

For parents who choose not to have their children vaccinated, Vancouver's Access Natural Healing Holistic Health Centre is now offering homeopathic immunization program. The program, which is not endorsed by Vancouver Coastal Health, is based on the research of Issac Golden, who researched natural methods of preventing infectious diseases over a 15-year-period in Australia, according to El Cecchetto, homeopathic practitioner for the clinic. 

"The protocol was developed taking into consideration what is most of concern to parents - what is something that the children are likely to be affected by within the area and what is the most potentially damaging."

The remedies are taken orally and parents can choose from two different programs.

The first one covers whooping cough, influenza, polio, meningitis, tetanus and pneumococcal infections (which includes infections of the brain, blood, lungs and ears). Alternatively, parents can choose to be covered for whenever there is a localized outbreak of diseases like measles, polio, meningitis, hepatitis B, influenza and tetanus. Immunizations for travellers are also available.

These vaccines are meant to work the same way as traditional ones by stimulating the immune system and allowing it to recognize and ward off infections, said Cecchetto. The difference is the substance administered is repeatedly diluted with water in the homeopathic process.  

"They're diluted to the point where they're not a crude substance_ it's more the molecular structure of the crude system," said Cecchetto. 

This method is a natural, non-toxic alternative for parents who are aren't sure traditional vaccinations are right for them, she added.

"We just support anyone who's looking for more information_ It's really just allowing parents to make their own choices."

The cost of homeopathic vaccinations is $33 per dose. For more information call 604-568-4663.

Testimonials

I had great success with Homeopathic Sulphur for getting rid of acne on my cheeks. Someone noticed the improvement (I didn't bring it up, she did) and asked what I did. I told her about the homeopathic sulphur. She had me buy some for her son and he had drastic improvement, as well. I don't think placebo effects come into play when eliminating acne... I can't argue against results.

Reversing Autism

Alison’s Mum tells her story… I have a 6-year-old daughter Alison, with Aspergers, who has been treated with constitutional homeopathy for just over a year.

She was not a healthy or settled baby and I ended up having to wean her at 3 months as she didn’t tolerate my breast milk and I had to put on her on an elemental formula for protein allergies and Losec for reflux. By the time she was 1-year-old she still didn’t tolerate any food and the next years were spent managing her health with a limited diet as she got older and some biomedical supplements.

When we started homeopathy the things I wanted help with was her behavior and some physical health symptoms. She is a very sensitive child and has lots of allergies that can bring on sensory seeking behavior and at the time of our first consult she had become very bossy, argumentative, defiant and inflexible. She was demanding and not coping with much in general. She also was having constipation problems and reflux and some other physical issues.

I remember the day of her first dose as being a particularly difficult day for us. I was so keen to give her the indicated remedy to see if it helped. She was in a very bad mood and being very rude. I gave her a sniff of the bottle as we always start gentle with her being so sensitive and within 15 minutes she came up to me where I was sitting on the rocking chair and asked for a cuddle. She climbed onto me and just melted into me in a way I hadn’t felt before. She was far more balanced, settled and relaxed. This was a really strong noticeable response and from that moment on I have focused on healing her with constitutional homeopathy.

As she had more doses we had more breakthroughs with behavior and her health symptoms were improving too.

She regularly used to be unreachable. So for example she may wake up one morning and decide to be a fairy and then she would stay in that persona all day. It would be hard to reach her and even though it was easy because she was happy amusing herself as a fairy, it was like I had lost her. After improving on the homeopathy and not going into her own world so often, I noticed she would express her feelings to me when things were upsetting her. So I assume she was escaping reality into her own world previously where-as now she is in the moment and able to express what is upsetting her.

There are so many little changes that are huge to me such as her initiating holding my hand in public, compared to previously where I would have to force her to hold my hand to cross a road for example. She didn’t like holding hands at all. There are also health improvements. Her diet is increasing and she is not sensitive to so many foods. Her tolerance of allergens is improving.

I have 6 weekly appointments with her homeopath and I keep a diary of her improvements so I have notes for the past year. As I read over them, it really confirms how far she has come in that year. Her progress is steady. I don’t expect a quick fix because she came into this world with several issues and developed more as she grew older so it is going to take time and persistence to undo them. But I would rather heal her gently with homeopathy and know that she is healed rather than manage or suppress her symptoms long term with diet and lifestyle changes and medications.

I use homeopathy on the whole family now and am grateful that my daughter’s health issues have directed me to learn about homeopathy as it is now impacting us all in a positive way.

Life is so much easier with homeopathy and now when people meet my daughter for the first time, they don’t recognize her as being on the spectrum.

Practitioner Comment

Some children with Asperger syndrome progress rapidly and lose their diagnosis within the first few months of homeopathic treatment while others make slow, steady gains over many years. Most however, like Alison, progress somewhere between the two extremes. The end results are just as heart-warming though, irrespective of the rate of improvement.

For many children with autism and Asperger syndrome, hypersensitivity of the immune system to various foods and environmental allergens is a problem but in Alison’s case, this was more severe than usual. To minimize any aggravating effects she was started on “sniff” rather than oral doses of her remedy and as you can see from her mother’s story, they were still effective.

Travelling with your Homeopathic Remedies to protect homeopathic ingredients from X-Rrays


When traveling with homeopathic remedies, pass the remedies to the guard for manual screening and do not put them through the security x-ray scanners. Depending on where you will be travelling to/from - you could find out the EMR (electro-magnetic ray) strength used at each of the luggage and security line ups for each airport you will be travelling to. That way, you can decide which remedies you would like to carry with you or which ones you would like toput in your luggage. The lead bags that film is stored in for airport x-ray prevention may also be of use.
