Self Diagnosis & Treatment with Homeopathy

Wednesday, September 23, 2009 at 11:39 PM
Guide to Self Diagnosis and Treatment with Homeopathy The basic aim of homeopathic prescribing is to find the one remedy which best matches all your symptoms. It is best not to take more than one remedy at a time. What symptoms matter? As homeopathy relies on prescribing one remedy to your precise combination of symptoms, all your symptoms should be included in the process. Most of us have a few niggles that have been with us so long we don't even notice them anymore. (i.e., cold feet) These all need your full attention. You should also include things which you might not even class as symptoms, such as a persistent itch behind your ear. Aside from the obvious nature of your complaint (i.e. headache). things to notice include: State of mind (including fears, anxieties, attitudes etc.) Colour and consistency and regularity of your stool What makes a particular symptom feel worse or better? Where exactly is each problem located? When did symptoms first occur, and what bought them on? Your sleep pattern What are you sensitive to (i.e. light, cold, heat, drafts, touch, criticism etc.) For women, where you are on your monthly cycle. Getting Familiar with the Repertory It is worth spending a while exploring the database behind our software in depth, so as to familiarize yourself with the broad range of complaints that count as symptoms. You should, therefore, use the browse feature rather than the search facility on the remedy finder where possible. And a word of warning The most important thing when attempting to diagnose and treat illnesses at home is to know when to stop. If symptoms persist, go and see your doctor; even if you feel your symptoms seem unworthy of professional help, minor symptoms can often be a sign of something more serious. Your national homeopathy association can supply a list of qualified medical doctors who are also qualified as homeopaths.
