Homeopathy Explained
Homeopathy has been around since the 1700's. There were two schools of thought that developed then on the treatment methodology of disease, one was Homeopathy, and the other Allopathy, (modern Physicians are Allopaths, MD's).
Homeopaths treat from the INSIDE OUT,finding the CAUSE of the illness, and use only potentized NATURAL products found in Nature.
Allopaths treats from the OUTSIDE IN, cutting off offending growths, or using corrosive poisons or cortisone to SUPPRESS an imbalance or disease process or cancer never addressing the causative factor as to why the imbalance was there in the first place.
The big money in the 1700's was with the Allopaths.
Medical schools, Associations, and all the other Specialties and Pharmacies derived from the Allopathic thought.
Homeopathy and Homeopathic medicines or remedies as they are called, are used today in Allopathic applications, for example, the Homeopathic preparation, Colchicine, (which is Saffron!) CAUSES, when in eaten in quantity, GOUT,as one of its symptoms of poisoning.
Allopaths use Colchicine today as a treatment for GOUT, which by Homeopathic principal, then eliminates or even cures the Gouty subjects symptoms, using "Like Cures Like" and most Allopaths don't even realize that they, themselves, are using colchicine as a Homeopathic remedy that has been around since the 1700"s!
Homeopathy is a 200 year old, well established practice based upon principals attuned to an individual's body.
As stated before, the basic premise is that "Like Cures Like", or the Law of Similars.
A Substance that would CAUSE specific symptoms when taken in its raw form, will ALLEVIATE those same symptoms, BUT THE SYMPTOMS MUST MATCH!
Rather than focusing on disease organisms and how to kill them, as in the case with synthetic medicines, Homeopathy works to eliminate the imbalance that allowed those certain disease organisms, worms, conditions, to proliferate.
In HOMEOPATHY, we look for SYMPTOMS, which are called RUBRICS, which in turn, lead to finding the source of the individual's imbalance.
Germs, Bacteria, Pathogens, Parasites and their eggs are present everywhere, all the time.
The REASON why some people become ill, or infested with parasites, is because those pathogens found the conditions favorable to their growth in the weakened or imbalanced individual.
You wouldn't blame a fly maggot for a piece of rotting meat would you?
The maggot is an opportunist, finding a place to live and grow where conditions are most favorable, living off the detrius of the rotting carcass.
So is the Germ, Bacteria, Condition, etc. If a person's body is in balance, and free from interfering conditions, poisons, mental shocks, and also, from Nerve interference from Subluxations, (and the Natural state of the Human body is Health in its most perfect form) then worm eggs, bacterium, etc., will NOT proliferate, and the body's own defenses will eliminate the egg, or envelop the bacterium, and the person will not even know that a battle has been fought and won inside his or her body.
Homeopathy remedies are made by sucussion, that is, for an example, the
sucussion of an Herb into an Homeopathic remedy is thus:
An herb or substance is pulverized into a mass in a mortar. The mass is then dissolved into alcohol (if that is the correct agent for that particular substance. Water or other materials are used also.) The mixtures is left for a prescribed amount of time, the transparent or translucent liquid is drawn off into another clean vessel. The result is called a MOTHER TINCTURE.
One drop of the Mother Tincture is put into a bottle of water or alcohol, and sucussed, or rapped against a hard surface, 100 times. Of that mixture, one drop is taken, the rest put away, and the drop is put into a new clean vessel of liquid, and sucussed again. To reach a 1X titration, the remedy has to be sucussed many times.
The smaller titrations, 1X, 3X, 30X, are like shooting the at the condition with a shotgun. Some particles will make a bulls eye, but in case there are other attenuating circumstance, that may need treatment, the broader spectrum of the low titrations will often be of more value. The lower titrations are weaker in strength.
The Higher titrations (or POTENCIES as they are also called), 1M, 10M, 50M, CM, LM, and MM, are much more potent, and are used like a high powered rifle. They do not bother themselves with other conditions, but are very specific in their actions.
Remember, if any potency of a remedy, whether it be high or low, miss, or are the wrong remedy, they will "prove", or they will do nothing at all. If the correct remedy is chosen, it will completely alleviate the condition permanently.
To repeat: a Homeopathic remedy may do one of three things:
- It may cure.
- It may do nothing at all.
- It may "prove".
Again, to "prove" , means the remedy will temporarily cause the symptoms it is given to eliminate. An antidote is always recommended to have on hand, to eliminate this possibility.
Just remember, the LOWER the potency, that is, the closest to the Mother Tincture it is, (3X, 30X, 6C, 30C), the WEAKER, but BROADER its auction.
A low titration or potency, then, has to be taken for a longer period of time in order to effect a change or a cure.
The HIGHER potencies, (100C, 1M, CM, etc), the less (almost on a molecular level) actual substance it contains, but is much STRONGER in its action, and more PRECISE in its potential to eliminate symptoms.
Usually, one or two doses of a High Potency will cure, if its applications are correct.
Normal doses are about one part per million, or even less, of inert ingredients, and although these seem rather small, they still contain highly refined properties which are very powerful in helping the body heal itself.
Personally I liken a Homeopathic remedy to a computer chip, and the body a computer.
If some processes are out of balance, or a computer virus is present, the remedy, when taken, acts like a corrective program or chip inserted in the computer, which click, click, clicks the out of balance conditions back to where they are supposed to be.
All Homeopathics are safe and effective, and have been used for Centuries.
I have been studying Homeopathy for 30 years, and have been trained by the American Institute of Holistic Theology, acquiring my DN (Doctorate in Natrology) with the Clayton School of Natural Healing for my PhD in Nutrition and Naturopathy, with the British Institute of Homeopathy for my DHM (Doctorate in Homeopathic Medicine), also winning the title FBIH (Fellow of the British School of Homeopathy) for making the highest grades and the Universal Life University for my DD (Doctorate in Divinity).
I am Board certified by the ANMA (The American Naturopathic Medical Association) as a Homeopath and a Naturopath, and am licensed to practice in Washington, D.C. (President William Clinton is a past client).
I am also a member of Mensa since 1978, and am the Editor/Publisher of the bi-monthly Newsletter, "The Big Sneeze" * the publication for the International Allergy Sig (a Mensan Special Interest Group) that looks for Alternative methodology and treatments for Allergies, of which I am also the Head.
*The above article was taken from one written by Dr. Alva Irish, and published in the May/June 1996 issue of "Countryside Small Stock Journal" an International Magazine. The Premier Homeopathic Medical Journal: "Homeopathy Today", cited this article as the best one ever written explaining the difference between Homeopathy and Allopathy. (October 1996 issue, "In the News" ref: Sharon Stevenson, Executive Director "Homeopathy Today".
For the practice of Homeopathy, we must KNOW THE SYMPTOMS, which each
Remedy has Produced, and we must have these so arranged that they can be
found instantly for any required region of the body.
Hahnemann arranged them all, in the 1700's, doing exhaustive Research and
years of "provings" using literally thousands of of subjects, for each of the Remedies tested, in a definite Anatomical Order, and this Arrangement is the Foundation of the Order in which the Symptoms are given in all works on the Subject compiled to this day.
Every Nerve, every Organ, every Muscle, every Muscle Sheath, every Neuron,
Brain function, Thought processes, Urinary, Sexual and Bowel function, Respiratory function, Heart function, and every Bone and Joint has been addressed in all of the remedies proven by Dr. Hahnemann and his Successors.
The Homeopathic Material Medicas thus consist of Schematic Arrangements of the Symptoms produced by each Remedy, together with the applications from the observed action of Remedies in Practice.
Three Ways a Remedy may act:
The remedy may completely "cure" the Patient.
If the wrong or incorrect remedy is chosen, it may "Prove", or just alleviate only some of the symptoms.
The remedy may do absolutely nothing at all, which simply means that an incorrect remedy was chosen.
Homeopathic remedies cannot "cure" Genetic Disease, but they CAN alleviate the Symptoms produced by the Genetic conditions. Most so called Genetic conditions are, in reality, caused by something else, and the accompanying symptoms can often be completely eliminated.
And, Homeopathics cannot "cure" Nutritionally based illness, albeit, they CAN alleviate the Symptoms of Mal-Nutrition, such as Scurvy and Pellagra until the Nutritional base in the individual can be brought up to par, and they CAN eliminate the REASON why the body is refusing to absorb the nutrients in the first place.
And finally, Homeopathic Remedies cannot Alleviate Mechanical Injuries or Subluxations, which are best treated by Chiropractic means, although they CAN eliminate bodily interference which may exacerbate or even cause subluxations in the first place!
A remedy "proves" when it temporarily causes the symptoms it is given to eliminate. An antidote is always on hand to eliminate this remote possibility.
Remember, both PHYSICAL and MENTAL symptoms are of equal importance in
Homeopathy.
The ancient adage "Like Cures Like", or the Law of Similars, is the basis
of Homeopathic treatments.
At this time, there is no Research Project combining Homeopathy, Nutrition, Chiropractic, and Yogic Exercises to assist Chronic care and Terminal Care Patients. The Homeopathic Overview is to work hand in hand with other Professions daily at the Center for Mankind Foundation, Inc., to provide much needed information on how to serve the community through Alternative Health Care for the Treatment of the entire, whole person, embodied in Compromised and diseased patients.

HOMEOPATHIC/NUTRITIONAL/CHIROPRACTIC
RESEARCH - PROCEDURE
Introduction:
Several Alternative Natural Healing Disciplines will Treat each Client on a Daily Basis. A Genuine Client Format to maximize the Healing Process is an Imperative need to the Research Development Program.
By following a Critical Needs Format, the Individual client will be Led through the Proper Health Channels to Achieve a Great Sense of Harmonious Recovery.
It is to this Objective, that Homeopathy, Nutrition and Chiropractic will function in the appropriate Juxtaposition to maximize the patient's Well-Being.
Procedure:
1. Nutritional Analysis is the first Order of Prevention, as part of Research Development on the Initial Visit of the Client to the Foundation's Clinic. For nutrition is paramount to seek out and discover deficiencies that are necessary for the building blocks of good nutrition. A Hair and Facial Analysis will be performed, as well as Dark Field Microscopy, Liver Enzymes titer, Bone density testing, Cholesterol titers will be taken, Urine and Saliva samples also. These thorough testing procedures will glean from the Client's values, much needed information as to the present state of the individual regards his Nutritional intake, the Nutritional imbalances found, that need to be addressed, in order to form the building blocks for the Homeopathic research and Chiropractic Studies to be most effective to articulate a cure or alleviation of symptoms for the Client. These tests are done strictly on an individual basis, and each Nutritional
program will be tailor-designed according to each persons test results.
The proper Nutritional Supplements and Enzymes will be then given to each Client, and monitored as to the ongoing necessity of each nutrient, changing them as each imbalance is eliminated.
2. Homeopathy is the next order of Prevention as Part of Research Development on the Initial Visit of the Client to the Foundation's Clinic.
The Homeopathic Requirement will demonstrate the Alternative need for Highly Specific Chemistry needed as Fundamental Building Blocks to the Healing Process, Elimination of Bodily Toxins, The Development of Mental and Physical Balance, and the Development of Bodily Harmony through the Elimination of the Cause of Dis-Ease and Imbalance.
Dr. Alva Irish, our President, will sit down with each Client on a one-to-one basis, and do a Homeopathic interview, a process whereby Dr. Irish gleans from the patient ALL of his/her Symptomology from Birth, on, and even goes back to Parents and Grandparent to see out the information she needs to do a thorough Homeopathic research for the Rubrics that will point to the correct Remedies and their respective correct potencies and repetitions to alleviate the discomfort of the Client.
ALL bits and pieces of information are of UTMOST importance, from "which side do you sleep on", to " what foods do you crave". These symptoms called "RUBRICS" are entered into a $20,000 dollar computer based program which searches over 300 DIFFERENT Material Medicas, each of which contains over 3,000 different remedies, all proven and categorized.
From the information she enters, Dr. Irish then compares the results with the Hair analysis, Facial analysis, Dark Field tests, and the other testing results, and makes a decision as to what Homeopathic remed(ies) she will suggest.
Then the Client is given a Diet according to his/her blood type, and advised as to the treatment plan for taking the remedies. Even the timing of taking Homeopathic remedies is important, and as each remedy provided is taken, it is marked off on a chart of records, kept by the Clinic.
A dose is touching a remedy, breathing a remedy's fumes, taking one pellet or tablet, or taking a whole bottle. One time, one dose, So it is also of the utmost importance that each Client take his/her remedies in a ventilated room with a masked and gloved attendant. No Client will be allowed to take his/her remedies off premises.
The Client is monitored daily as to what Rubrics are gone, if there are New Symptoms, what Symptoms have changed, are a little better, a re-check is then done in about two weeks, or, if a Chronic care Client has been given long term Homeopaths to take, after those are finished.
A complete new set of tests are given, and then, after satisfactory results are gained, the Client is released from Dr. Irish's care and sent to one of the Center's fine Chiropractors for Chiropractic and Exercise evaluation.
The Client will not be released for Chiropractic and Exercise until the Symptoms are under control and Dr. Irish is satisfied with positive results.
Clients, when they follow this One-Two step of Nutrition/Homeopathic application will have the necessary Vitamins, Minerals, Nutrients, and Homeopathic Medicines tailored to each Patient on an individual basis, and set in Motion the Required Building Blocks for Bone Density, Tendon and Connective Tissue, and Organ Components necessary for Chiropractic Care to Function Properly. (Dr. Alva Irish will provide the In-depth Requirements of Nutrition and Homeopathy and their Efficacy in this proposal).
3. Chiropractic Care is the third Order of Prevention as Part of Research Development on the initial Visit to the Foundation's Clinic.
Each patient will receive a set of Radiographs, and a formal and Detailed examination of their Spine and Extremities. The Extent of Spinal Subluxation, Misalignment and Extremity Distortion will determine the Procedural Format and Methodology.
The removal of serious Spinal Interference in each Patient's life will provide a Better Functioning Body Structure (note:A patient that is free of vertebral Subluxations can perform at a superior level of Achievement and Lifestyle with less Stress on His/Her Nervous System and Bodily Structure.)
A better Balanced, Subluxation - Free Patient is more Harmonious and Better tuned to their Inner Resources for Life, Heath, and Healing.
All subsequent Visits to the Foundations's Clinic will be designed based upon a patient report of Health report of Health Findings Related to Nutritional, Homeopathic, Radiographic, and Chiropractic Assessment of His/Her own condition.
HOMEOPATHIC RESEARCH OVERVIEW
Homeopathic Health care is founded on the premise that Disease, Mental imbalance, and sometimes Physical or Structural illnesses are caused by a complicated set of circumstances, i.e.: a shock to the system, whether it be Mental, Physical, or Chemical, that may have been caused by one or more of several different Catalysts compromise the basis of the Homeopathic principal developed by the father of Homeopathy, Samuel Hahnemann, which is "Like Cures Like".
When a Healthy body System is altered by any one of the above mentioned circumstance, it lowers functionality of all Mental Processes, including Addictive and Behavior imbalances, Memory Processes, Immune System function, Glandular and Muscular Processes, Organ Function and can even affect Neuromusculoskeletal tissue.
The unique ability of the Homeopathic approach to the correction of imbalances is the most important thing ever given to to Mankind.
Although Allopaths (MD's) treat many types of people with Mechanical or Chemical Trauma and in various stages of illness, there are basically 3 steps to Health. They are:
1. Therapeutic care Patients (65%) have self limiting Symptoms. These Symptoms will usually resolve within two months whether using an M.D., D.C. (Chiropractor), DHM (Homeopath), or Acupuncturist. However, unless the CAUSE of the Symptoms is addressed and corrected, the Symptoms will re-occurs with increasing frequency and severity.
2. Chronic care Patients (30%) have problems stemming from viral or genetic roots, or uncorrected subluxations.
They have been dealt a Grave Injustice and they live each day on a downward life quality spiral. They continue to live in quiet desperation of Hope. People such as these merely exist, having lost Hope or Faith and rely on assistance to feel alive.
3. Terminal care Patient have altogether give up Hope, or have resigned themselves to being compromised. Chronic Care Patients move to this category if they have not encountered a System with the Ability to provide increased Healing and Recovery in their lives.
Homeopathic Research provides the Opportunity, in Dynamic Tandem with Nutrition, Chiropractic and Focused Calisthenics, to achieve a means of Alternative Heath Healing and engender a sense of Hope.
The British Medical Profession's revered publication: "The Lancet" acknowledges that "The Homeopathic Doctrine is true", and recently, The National Board of Healing Arts has issued an edict to the Medical Profession at large, including all Medical Schools (Allopathic), to include Homeopathy in their teachings by the year 2003 or loose their licensure.
And, the Mayo Clinic has done exhaustive tests of the efficacy of Homeopathy and has come to the same conclusion. |
