Homeopathic Therapy

I received eight low intensity Laser Therapy (LILT) treatments for chronic pain in my shoulders and lower back areas. (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Fibromyalgia is a management challenge) The relief I experienced from the pain allowed me to eliminate pain medication. At the same time, my husband who had pain in his left scaffold bone (a small bone in the wrist) from many years of playing golf, received ten LILT treatments to his left wrist. He was pain free for the 2011 golf season. We have embraced this healing modality to help maintain our well-being and highly recommend its application for others.

NATURAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS

You’ve heard whispers and rumors about using homeopathy to feel incredibly healthy, and it’s time that you try it for yourself.

Have you ever had motion sickness? Homeopathy can help with that.
Felt jittery and anxious? Homeopathy can help with that, too.
Depressed and not like yourself? Homeopathy can help you get back to YOU.

Homeopathy is a safe, gentle, and effective field of alternative medicine that uses an individualized approach to trigger your body’s natural healing mechanisms. By using small doses of natural substances, homeopathy helps restore your state of health and balance.

WHAT IS HOMEOPATHY?

Homeopathy is a safe, gentle, and effective system of medicine that works to trigger your body’s natural healing mechanisms. It was founded over 200 years ago by a German physician who discovered an approach to curing disease and restoring health using the theory that “like cures like”. Basically, a substance that causes symptoms in large doses is used in a highly diluted form to treat the same symptoms. For example, chopping onions causes stinging, water eyes and running nose in many people. Homeopathically prepared red onion (Allium Cepa) can relieve similar symptoms in people suffering from hay fever.

Homeopathy treats the entire individual, not just the symptoms of the disease. By using symptoms as a guide, it is able to treat the root cause of an illness and stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanism, returning it to a state of health. Since each person is unique and manifests disease in a slightly different way, homoeopathic treatment is tailored to each patient.

HOW HOMEOPATHY WORKS

Rather than just masking symptoms of an illness, homeopathy strengthens your body’s ability to heal itself and return to a state of health. Homeopathically prepared medicines, or remedies, trigger an auto-immune response that stimulates your body’s own ability to heal. As individuals we encounter many ailments, such as the common cold, that we are able to overcome. However, in more chronic diseases the body requires assistance. Homeopathic remedies provide assistance by acting as the stimulus the body needs to set the healing process into action.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Determining the proper homeopathic remedy involves investigating all symptoms you are experiencing, including the physical, mental, and emotional, along with a detailed review of your medical history. At Avalon Laser your first visit with our homeopath usually lasts 1.5 to 2 hours. A homeopathic remedy will be prescribed within a week of the initial visit, allowing time for careful analysis of your case.

Follow-up appointments usually take place 4-6 weeks after the initial appointment and last 30-40 minutes. During these visits, the homeopath will access any changes to determine the next course of action.

The duration of treatment depends on you and the illness you seek treatment for. Generally, a slow developing or long standing complaint will not disappear overnight, while others may go away quickly. However, we do expect to see some changes within the first months. It is important to be patient as we gently relieve the cause of illness and its symptoms. Remember, every case is as different as the person being treated.
