The medical industry doesn’t understand about the restoration of health. The only thing they can do is to manage ill health. The industry that controls them, Big Pharma, would never let them explore this anyway, as their agenda is all about selling drugs.
So the idea behind the use of drugs in chronic conditions is that you have to take them for the rest of your life. This idea has pervaded society.
When people start to use homeopathy, without guidance from a qualified and experienced homeopath, they often tend to do the same.
They may not appreciate the difference between acute and chronic conditions. They may not understand that homoeopathy HEALS, so the remedies are not needed indefinitely.
I get very concerned how people use homeopathy especially with small children and animals. Small children and animals can’t tell you how the remedy reacts with them, what it does to them.
While homeopathy is a million times safer than drugs, it can still have an undesirable effect. Just as salt can and water. Too much or too little of either can be harmful to all of us. Yet both are vital to health.
Here are a couple of examples.
I recall one of my students was very drawn to a particular remedy I was teaching. So she took it. And took it frequently. She started to feel very odd so contacted me. I simply advised her to stop taking it and in a couple of days she was back to normal.
A homeopath insisted on a child taking a remedy, even though the child clearly didn’t want it - tightly closed mouth, turning her head away. It had a bad effect on her and it took her a good while to trust her mother again.
I’ve heard people keep giving a remedy, ‘as a preventative’. That ‘preventative’ is likely to cause the very problem it was taken to solve, if it is over used.
In chronic conditions, it’s a bit different. I’ve heard of people thinking that the first remedy prescribed by a homeopath is THE remedy to fix everything and so buy a job lot, never returning.
The first remedy MAY be just that, but in most cases it isn’t. How can we understand you so completely in such a short period? Did you tell me everything? Am I perfect?
Regular follow ups are essential if you truly want your health back. At least until it is in the order of 80% better. Think of it more of a process than an event.
The return to health is normally a bumpy ride. You’ll encounter things along the way that will affect you adversely, that will disrupt the status quo.
Learning to use homeopathic remedies acutely is something that I strongly support. It’s not difficult and it can save you a ton of anxiety, time and money not to mention solving the problem promptly and efficiently.

However, treating chronic conditions is very different. While the medical treatment of acute conditions can be invaluable (setting broken bones, etc), they are not equipped to treat chronic disease. Homeopathy DOES treat chronic disease very efficiently and capably, but it won’t happen in a single consultation.
Please be aware that homeopathic treatment is very powerful. It can do wonderful things when used correctly. Mostly nothing happens when used incorrectly. But repeated doses of an incorrect remedy can bring out symptoms. That’s how we test the remedies.
You have a wonderful and powerful therapy at your fingertips. Respect it. And use the wisdom of the patient, especially when it is a small child or animal, usually expressed in body language.
