Homeopathic drugs are precious help for the
general practitioner as well as the specialist in daily practice.
In most areas, homeopathic drugs treat acute as well as chronic diseases.
Homeopathy medecine: Talking about it…
Doctor Antoine Demonceaux - France
In a great many areas, without homeopathy, I wouldn’t have anything to propose.
In a great many areas, without homeopathy, I wouldn’t have anything to propose, except for overly aggressive or ineffective treatments. Examples? Chronic upper respiratory infections in the child, anxiety, emotional, depressive disorders or even the care of deficiencies or imbalances in the diathesis (functional dysthyroidism, etc.). In all of these cases, homeopathy provides incomparable treatment possibilities. As a homeopath physician, my approach to the patient differs greatly: It is based on the wholeness of the individual.
It’s not only
a question of time. It’s both a question of
spirit and methodology. Through thorough questioning,
an attempt is made to discern everything around
the symptom to analyze what may have been the
triggering cause.
The assessment of homeopathy involves the service
that the patient receives. I can attest to spectacular
results not only in the treatment of the disease
(chronic upper respiratory infections in the
child, recurrent disorders such as rhinopharyngitis,
etc.), but also in the quality of life for the
patient: ease of treatment, absence of adverse
reactions, etc. Not to mention the impact on
public health: by facilitating withdrawal from
psychotropes (tranquillizers, antidepressants,
etc.) and by reducing the dosage of heavy allopathic
treatments while increasing their efficacy (hypertension,
asthma, etc.).
I feel that homeopathy renders service both to the patient and society through the savings made.
I recommend homeopathy for its efficacy and lack of contra-indications, especially in fragile individuals.
I have to answer questions raised by my clients every
day. They ask for advice on the most varied subjects,
ranging from the most benign to the most serious. I
am especially vigilant with fragile patients: pregnant
women, particularly those at the beginning of their
pregnancy, children and people with serious diseases
undergoing several treatments. For these clients, I
often recommend homeopathy, with the wish to avoid doubling
the contra-indications and risks.
Take the case
of insomnia in a very young child, or even a
behavior disorder: heavy chemistry or syrups
that literally overwhelm the child are out of
the question. It is also difficult to consider
an interview with the child.
However, homeopathy often has an immediate efficacy, without any harmful effects.
The same is true for a patient that suffers from congestive heart failure, combined with diabetes and/or high blood pressure. If this patient comes to me for a cold, a great many allopathic products are contra-indicated in his state. Homeopathy or phytotherapy provide results without any risks for the patient. Out of 100% of all disorders, I consider that only 10% fall within the privileged field of allopathy, 10% belong to homeopathy and the remaining 80% to the choice of the doctor and his patient.
We have excellent homeopath doctors in my region.
I am well informed of their work through their
patients: they teach the patients to understand
their “reactive mode”. When these patients come
to the pharmacy, they tell me that they appreciate
not polluting their body. This instruction provides
a true service for health!
