How We View Some Common Diseases

A | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | M | O | P | R | S | T | U | V

ACID REFLUX
Acid reflux is a muscular weakness disease, not an acid problem. However, since there are no standard treatments to address the problem directly, acid blocking medications are commonly used to treat the problem. In homeopathy, an agent is used that will address internalized anger and muscular weakness. If the lower esophageal sphincter ring is not too badly damaged or enlarged, then the homeopathic preparation should resolve the problem between 80-100%.

ALLERGIES
Allergies almost always coincide with a scattered state of the nervous system and immune system in both adults and children. Homeopathic medicines will be selected that address the unfocused and over-reactive nature of the immune system and nervous system. The results are often quite successful. Most people with ADD (attention deficit disorder) also have allergies or sensitivities.

ARTHRITIS
Common arthritis or osteoarthritis is a manifestation of resentment and the resulting contraction that occurs in the joints. The more contracted a joint space is, the more the joint gets worn down as it is used. Resentment causes hardening, increasing calcium levels in the joints and tendons. The results of this are often bone spurs. When homeopathic medicine works correctly, the tissue softens and becomes more fluid as resentment decreases. Standard anti-inflammatories help to decrease pain and inflammation but do not address the hardening process.

ASTHMA
Asthma can be a disease of allergic nature or of grief causing weakness of the respiratory system. The lungs are responsible for processing grief. Sometimes our children have asthma because they are processing a grief passed down through lineage, not from something they have experienced. Other times the child's asthma is purely from allergic tendencies without any correlation to grief. The homeopathic preparation is selected accordingly.

ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDER (ADD)
ADD is dramatically on the rise. True ADD inhibits the creative and productive tendency of a person. Interestingly, the medical use of stimulants is effective in temporarily treating the symptoms of ADD. A stimulant feeds a part of the brain that would normally distract the mind. It allows the person to stay focused longer. Homeopathic medicine uses a highly-diluted scattering agent to stop the brain's tendency to scatter.

ADD can be similar to listening to beautiful music while static is interfering with the sound. The static of the brain is a signal breaking through the filter between the feeling brain and the thinking brain. A homeopathic medicine will quiet distortion signals and also toughen up that filter.

AUTISM
Autism and related syndromes are dramatically on the rise. Many children and young adults have autistic traits without being fully autistic. Asperger's syndrome and developmental delay syndromes are two of these related categories. These syndromes exist because of brain circuitry problems. Homeopathy can stimulate the brain and turn on dormant areas by connecting circuits. When a proper treatment is received, both learning and communication skills as well as physical growth increase.
