Sleep and Energy<br \/>\n2. Sense of Well-being<br \/>\n3. Calmness<br \/>\n4. Clarity of Mind<br \/>\n5. Adaptability to your environment (physical, mental &amp; emotional)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">What Hering&#8217;s Law also states is that conditions usually heal in the reverse order that they occurred; the most recent heal first and older ones later.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So for example, if your chief concern is a skin condition or some condition from your youth, your body may not heal that until a more recent onset severe emotional condition is relieved.\u00a0 Be patient.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Like ALL medical sciences, the practice of homeopathy is an art as well as a science.<\/span><\/strong> <strong><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">If the right remedy is taken it will cure deeply, but finding that remedy is an art.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">For most clients finding the right remedy is not problematic.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">But for some with a complicated health history it might take several tries to find the right remedy, with each remedy taking a couple weeks to verify.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Also clients with complicated histories might require a series of different remedies to work\u00a0 their way back to a relatively healthy state.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">I will have to stay in close contact with you during the trial periods for each remedy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I want to work with those clients who are willing to patiently work through the trials to find the right remedy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">One of the beautiful aspects of homeopathy is that there is no toxicity. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Any unusual symptoms that might occur during the trial of a wrong remedy will direct me to the right remedy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">So <strong>it is important to keep a log of your health,<\/strong> recording any significant changes in your health \u2013 mental, physical or emotional.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As an energy medicine, the strong energy of other energetic treatments, EMF exposure and things such as herbs, strong odors and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">especially camphor and coffee<\/span>, <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><u>may<\/u><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> interfere with homeopathic treatment.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Like any good process you want to keep changes to your daily regime and interferences to a minimum, to make sure the remedy is working, before adding these things back into your regime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Once on the correct remedy, without any interferences, you should see rapid improvement in the General Signs of Health followed by the other symptoms of concern.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">After the first full follow up for the chosen remedy, if I am convinced of it&#8217;s efficacy and then such close contact wont be necessary. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">You will be able to manage well on your own, briefly checking in monthly or as needed when acute conditions arise or other notable changes in your health arise.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>NOTE: It is important to notify me immediately of any significant changes in your health so that we can discuss how to manage them without interfering in the healing process.
