Allergy correction one homeopathic formula at a time
More than 50 million Americans are affected by allergies that cause a wide range of physical, mental, and emotional symptoms.
As the seasons change, nature’s dormancies spring back to life. Pollen and other allergens increase dramatically and cause seasonal skin and food allergies, as well as headaches and asthma — many of which are often treated by antihistamines.
Most people believe allergies are a permanent condition requiring regular over-the-counter or prescription treatment to suppress their symptoms, but it is not true.
Homeopathy can safely and effectively treat — and in many cases cure — allergies.
Natural homeopathic medicines have become the first of all the natural remedies to ascend to the level of credibility by being registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a pharmaceutical product and with specific claims.
How homeopathy works
Homeopathy works to activate the body’s natural innate ability to heal and maintain vibrant health within our bodies. Without the valuable components of homeopathy, other treatments (whether nutritional or conventional) may not correct the malfunctions within the energetic and metabolic control systems of the body.
Homeopathy equips people to go beyond the parameters of the biochemical realm of life and correct interferences within the bioenergetic control systems of the body. It gives people the opportunity to experience unprecedented high levels of health and wellness.
There are many official homeopathic remedies regularly used to activate the body’s ability to overcome the debilitating symptoms of allergies. Homeopathic formulas are made by combining individual remedies so each dose offers the maximum benefits for acute and chronic cases without side effects or negative drug interactions.
Homeopathy activates the body’s inner healing resources as it works bio-energetically upon the nervous system to quickly correct nerve interferences where the hand of the chiropractor cannot.
Homeopathy can be safely and effectively combined with chiropractic, nutritional and herbal products, as well as conventional drugs and procedures.
Healing powers
Homeopathic allergy formulas are designed to correct from the inside as well as protect from the outside. In the instance of allergy formulas, correcting from the inside offers support and strengthening for a healthy, balanced immune system by activating the body’s natural defense system against allergens.
Protecting from the outside builds the body’s resistance and protects it from specific allergens in a specific geographic area, including a broad mix of grasses, weeds, trees, pollens, and molds.
Some of the most universal homeopathic remedies used for allergy relief, headache and sinus pressure, hay fever, or upper respiratory allergies include (but are far from being limited to):
Honey Bee (Apis Bellifica): Honey Bee acts on mucous membranes and relieves heavy sensations in the back of the head as well as red, burning, puffy eyelids. It also helps clear the brain and increase energy.
Wild Indigo (Baptisia Tinctoria): Wild Indigo relieves tightness and helps alleviate pressure at the root of the nose.
Calcium Sulphide (Hepar Sulphuris Calcareum): Calcium Sulphide relieves sore nostrils, sneezing, and running
Golden Seal (Hydrastis Canadensis): Golden Seal relieves profuse nasal discharge.
Duckweed (Lemna Minor): Duckweed is effective for inflammation of the air passages of the head and throat.Law of similars
It may be necessary to search out additional homeopathic formulas to address all underlying causes. Since homeopathy is based on the law of similars, look for formulas that relate to your patient’s symptomatic patterns, such as sinus, headache, skin irritations, asthma, snoring, etc.
There are homeopathic formulas for other specific allergies that can have a compounding effect with other allergies. There are homeopathic formulas for animals, dairy, dust, eggs, fragrances, fruits, grains, nightshades, nuts, and shellfish.
Other factors that can inflame seasonal and year-round allergies include toxicities. There are also homeopathic formulas designed to connect common toxicities, such as caffeine, cosmetics, household chemicals, outdoor air pollution, indoor air pollution, food additives and preservatives, pesticides, herbicides, and water chemicals.
Also to assist with toxicities are homeopathic formulas that activate the body’s natural detoxification mechanisms to work properly, such as blood, kidney, lymph, liver, and acid formulas.
Homeopathy offers more to your patients than a “quick fix” to their allergy symptoms. It offers a natural alternative that corrects from the inside as well as protects from the outside — getting them well from all angles.
