Like Mother, Like Daughter - A Legacy of
Homeopathic Healing
I have
a daughter who is a registered nurse and who
was always highly skeptical of homeopathy.
"There is no reason why it should work!" she
would say when I talked about times
homeopathy had helped. She is,
unfortunately, subject to migraine headaches
and once when she was visiting it was
obvious that she was in the early stages of
one. I offered her Luyties
# 233 Migraine but she pooh-poohed the
whole idea. An hour later, when it was
obvious that she was really suffering she
agreed to try the 233's as "it can't do any
harm, right?" In 20 minutes, I had given her
two doses. After 45 minutes, I asked her how
she was feeling. She looked at me, blinked,
and said, "I feel lots better, what did you
do?" By the time she left to go home, she
was feeling no trace of the pain.
I can
still remember her thanks and her rather
shame-faced apology for her years of
belittling the whole idea of homeopathy! She
now has a baby girl who has used Luyties
Colic #81 and
Teething Tabs #30. I am so pleased
that she has moved away from the
allopathic/big pharma response to every ill
and closer to a natural, safe, no side
effect system for health and well-being!

A Favorite
Homeopathic Remedy
for Migraine Relief
Migraines #233
Homeopathic Ingredients: Acetanilid,
Bryonia, Caffeinum, Camphora monobromata,
Iris vers
|
 |
|
The boss who says, "just because you
have a headache?" has not had a migraine.
The single remedy ingredients in this safe
homeopathic combination cover a range of
head pain symptoms.
Acetanilid (antifebrinum) specializes
in migraines that feel like the head is
enlarged, possibly with faintness and fever.
Just like everything else
Bryonia helps, the bursting migraines it
treats best feel worse with any movement,
better lying down with eyes closed and
applied pressure on painful spots.
Caffeinum (a remedy closely related to our
single remedy,
Coffea cruda) covers migraines with
pulsation along the arteries (especially
temples) and anxiety felt in the chest.
Camphora relieves headaches that follow
mental excitement or excess study. The
nauseating migraines that Iris helps most
ache more in the right temple, and actually
come on when relaxing after mental strain
and begin with a blur before the eyes. With
a good homeopath, recurring migraines are
more curable than many people think. So let
our
Migraine #233 be the first step in
homeopathic care for migraines. |

If these do not fit your
pains, there are many more homeopathic remedies that apply to a
range of migraine headache symptoms. Here are clues to some other
rather popular migraine options (more details on our website):
Coffea cruda (nail driven in feeling, hates noise),
Ignatia (anger, grief leads to nail through side feeling),
Kali bich (in small spots from suppressed mucus),
Lachesis (left sided, hot flashes),
Natrum mur (a hundred hammers, trouble seeing),
Pulsatilla (must have fresh air),
Silica (sick headache, pain
settles over one eye)...
It may take some sleuthing to find the perfect fit, but the payoff
is pain free, naturally! If you need a homeopath to do your
sleuthing,
we can help you find a practitioner. |
