Homeopathy

Classic Homeopathy

What is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a medical healing method using single remedies that have been potentiated, and that are applied according to the principle of similarity. The knowledge of the remedies originates from examinations of medicinal substances on healthy people and from observations.

200 years ago, homeopathy was developed by the physician Samuel Hahnemann. From a self experiment, he developed the principle of similarity (similia similibus currentur), indicating that the substance can cure those discomforts in a sick patient, which it has provoked in a healthy person.

Homeopathy is a regulation therapy. It helps you selectively with a health disturbance or to heal yourself from a disease.

Where do homeopathic remedies come from?

The remedies mainly derive from the plant, mineral, and animal kingdom. They are ground in levels (minerals) or diluted. Between the separate steps of dilution, they are vigorously shaken. This procedure is called potentisation or dynamisation.

Dilutions can be prepared in D-potencies 1:10 or in C-potencies (1:100).

Who can apply homeopathy?

Homeopathic remedies are suitable for everybody and have no side effects. In rare cases, there can be reactions of an initial worsening of the symptoms.

How do I take the homeopathic remedy?

The application is possible in globules (little sugar balls), which is especially simple for children and is possible even with small infants. There are also tinctures (alcoholic preparations) and tablets (mostly with lactose), but there are also external applications in form of ointments or suppositories.

Per application, an adult can take 5 globules, or 5 drops of the tincture, or one tablet.

Depending on their age, children take a bit less. It is best to let the remedy dissolve in the mouth; 10 minutes prior and after you should not eat or drink anything. Especially no coffee, and it's best not to apply any strong essential oils.

Acute symptoms can be treated well even with low potencies; chronic symptoms should always be addressed by a homeopath who has good knowledge of the remedies.

Can I combine homeopathy?

It's possible to take homeopathic medicine with other remedies and it is sometimes unavoidable. If you want to combine several alternative remedies, please ask your homeopath. They often prefer a monotherapy to better associate the symptoms.

We would be glad to assist you in finding the right remedy for your acute symptoms; if the specific potency is not available in store, we normally can obtain it for you in a very short time.

We also offer special cases to store and carry your homeopathic remedies and other useful travel kits.

What are essential oils?

Essential oils are easily volatile substances with a rather strong aroma. "Essential" means: heavenly, tender, spiritual. For millennia, man has been enchanted by fragrances. They can calm, relax, stimulate, or activate. Essential oils are used for baths, sauna, massages, inhalations, compresses, and more. Scientists have discovered more than 800 single active agents in essential oils, that protect the plants from various attacks and dangers, and thus contribute to maintain the plant in its habitat.

And if there is melancholy in the air,
Already your favorite fragrance calms you,
And gets you quickly up and running.

Because that's the message of pure fragrances,
To float throughout the air,
And to awaken a cheerful state.

Bach Flowers

In the 30s of the last century, the 38 original Bach flowers were developed from flowers of wild growing plants and trees by the famous English physician Dr. Edward Bach, They are supposed to harmonize our state of mind and effectively prevent illnesses.

According to Dr. Bach, this is the simplest method of self-healing.

„Everyone of us is a healer“ Quote by Dr. E. Bach

Bach flower therapy offers psychological / emotional support in situations with

inner restlessness, stress, overwhelm
anxiety, grief, sadness
jealousy, heartbreak
problems with decision making
nightmares in children, bed-wetting
concentration problems and learning difficulties at school, in the studies or in apprenticeship
behavior anomalies with animals

Especially for crisis situations, there are the rescue remedy drops or emergency drops, a mixture of 5 flower concentrates: Impatiens, Star of Bethlehem, Cherry Plum, Rock Rose und Clematis.

Also the Rescue Creme, with an addition of Crab Apple, is ideal as primary care of allergic skin reactions, insect bites, burns, as well as cuts and abrasions.

Bach flowers work naturally and gently, and cause no side effects; that's why they can be applied at any age!

We would be happy to consult you and to prepare your own individual Bach flower mixture on-site.
