Health is the state of harmony between the body and the mind. Disturbance of harmony in these two results in disease, expressed in the form of signs and symptoms. Since each organ has no separate existence in the body and all the organs are interdependent, one doctor should treat patients holistically by addressing the root cause of the problem rather than treating each effected organ separately.

Incurable diseases, complicated conditions, and lifelong medications have become common in the lives of many people today. Autism, ADHD, frequent ear infections, eczema, asthma, AIDS, diabetes, hepatitis, depression, hypothyroidism, rosacea, urticaria, fistula, and cancer are some of the most common problems we hear about today. Bird flu, SARS, and dengue are some of our new concerns. People are tired of running from doctor to doctor, loosing peace of mind as well as money with these diseases. How are these diseases developed? How can we protect ourselves from these things? How many vaccinations can we go on taking? What is the answer to all these disorders?

Health is multi-dimensional. It is affected by the type of food we eat, the quality of the air we breathe, and the amount of stress in our life. Any mistake in one of these things can result in disease. Homeopaths consider all these aspects in remedy selection and suggest lifestyle changes to rectify them. An individual may experience several signs and symptoms before they show up in laboratory tests. Only patients can tell these symptoms at that time. A doctor can diagnose or a laboratory test can reveal something only after these signs and symptoms move to a later stage. Homeopaths prevent challenging diseases right then through patiently listening to patients subjective symptoms for remedy selection. Homeopaths can help the person to nip the symptoms in bud.

Each person suffering from asthma may have his or her own unique symptoms like specific time of aggravation, nature of pain, associated symptoms like eczema, allergies in the form of hives or suffocation, constipation, myopia, and stomachaches. Homeopathic remedies will cure the problem by addressing these individual characteristic symptoms. Homeopaths also consider causative factors like toxins, infections, vaccinations, and genetic background for remedy selection.

Health is the state of harmony between the body and the mind. Disturbance of harmony in these two results in disease, expressed in the form of signs and symptoms. Since each organ has no separate existence in the body and all the organs are interdependent, one doctor should treat patients holistically by addressing the root cause of the problem rather than treating each effected organ separately. Homeopaths can use a single remedy for multiple symptoms by understanding the relation between those symptoms and the real cause to provide long lasting cure.

A problem in one organ can spread to multiple organs. For instance, people who are suffering from maxillary sinus will often get gingivitis as the pus in the sinuses spread to the gums. Homeopathy offers one remedy to resolve sinusitis and gingivitis, as the cause is one and the same.

Weaknesses in different organs result in different symptoms. The weakness of eye muscles results in myopia. The weakness of lungs may lead to breathlessness. One may have trouble walking due to a weakness in leg muscles. Heart enlargement is the result of a weakness in heart muscles. Homeopathy offers one remedy that can strengthen all these muscles to cure asthma, myopia, and weakness in legs and heart muscles.

Our body responds to damage in any organ by recruiting stem cells for repair. Stem cells are capable of dividing and renewing themselves for long periods, and they can give rise to specialized cell types according to need. Stem cells will be overused under stress, unhealthy eating habits, infectious diseases, and toxicity due to the use of medications for a long period. Overuse of stem cells can damage them which in turn could mutate into tumor or cancer. One can save stem cells from being damaged by using constitutionally selected homeopathic remedy and also can avoid using multiple medications that toxicities the body. Homeopathic remedies prevent infections through improving immunity.

Reasons for challenging disease:
In this fast paced life, we often ignore the importance of healthy eating, proper sleeping, and relaxation. Eating frozen foods, preservatives and colors in food can cause nutritional deficiencies and an improper release of hormones, which may precipitate several challenging health conditions.

Improper digestion and assimilation, lack of nutritious food, hormonal imbalances and infectious diseases can cause many symptoms like weakness, hair loss, fatigue, weight gain, depression, decreased concentration, constipation, muscle cramps and abnormal menstrual cycle. These problems can lead to or associate with most chronic conditions as people lose interest in exercise with pain or weakness.

Homeopathic approach:
Constitutionally selected single homeopathic remedy will cure multiple problems to strengthen every level of existence - digestion, breathing, emotions and sleep. In turn, one can avoid multiple medications and save stem cells from getting damaged. Homeopathy prevents complicated health conditions by fixing all causative factors every time a person is being treated for a health condition. Homeopathy offers a permanent solution than a quick fix in challenging health problems.

We can prevent complicated conditions by selecting remedies with the help of subjective symptoms at an early stage. Homeopathy gives wonderful results for challenging diseases as well as in emergencies and acute problems. There are no side effects from homeopathic remedies.

Homeopathy offers exceptionally good remedies to address most challenging problems - autoimmune disorders such as asthma, hypothyroidism, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, allergies; women disorders like premenstrual syndrome, irregular periods, heavy bleeding, and ovarian cysts; pediatric problems like ear infections, asthma, eczema, autism, ADHD and food allergies; and problems of elderly people and occupational disorders.

The curability of a case depends on various factors such as age, nature of disease, location in the body and stage of disease, and very importantly, the attitude of a person. Where there have been irreversible structural changes, homeopathy offers effective palliative measures helping them to lead a comfortable life. Homeopathic remedies alleviate those symptoms of pain and sleeplessness to lead a good life.

Homeopathic remedy selection will be based on physical, mental and emotional symptoms, and the family history of an individual. Homeopathic remedies stimulate the body's own immune system and offer a long lasting cure rather than by giving temporary relief.
