Top Ten Homeopathic Remedies
There are thousands of Homeopathic Remedies in use today. Natural Medicines like homeopathy, essential oils, herbal formulas, etc are based on a true science. Used by hundreds of thousands of people for hundred and thousands of years, this is true science, true trial and error. Modern science has unlocked many other for us, but it can not compare to the history and documentation of natural medicines to initiate the healing processes of the body. Documentation of Homeopathic Remedies dates back to the time of Paracelsus and beyond. Hahnemann was a German doctor that lived over 200 years ago and is known as the founder of present day Homeopathy. Reviving the use of homeopathic medicine and principles found in ancient medical texts, Hahnemann rediscovered the concepts of homeopathy, treating disease and plagues successfully with the Law of Similars. There are so many different ideas about how to use Homeopathic Medicines. Many People mistakenly think it is the Homeopathic Remedy that heals the body. Actually the remedies remind or guide to the bodies attention to where it is needed to heal itself.

Things to remember about homeopathic remedies; there are actually no side effects from using homeopathic medicines except for a healing condition called an aggravation. An aggravation can vary, symptoms may get worse but the patient feels better. An old condition may resurface then disappear. No side effects can occur because there is no actual trace element of the original substance left in the remedy. The active ingredient is the energy or spirit of the plant, mineral or substance used. The Scent in essential oils is like the signature of the spirit. Scent works to sooth and uplift and activate the spirit of the body into healing a mode, but even a scent may cause adverse reactions because there is still active ingredients present. Homeopathic preparations use an ancient technique that captures the essence or spirit of the molecular structure of the substances used in the remedies. It is this energy that may have a profound effect on the body or spirit. Which level of activation is determined by the potency o the remedies used. Commonly used remedies will be of very low potencies, 3C 6C 12C 30C.
