Re: vaccines--issues around choosing a homeopath

[Guest guest]

Micki,

One thing to keep in mind when choosing a homeopath--find one who actually

IS a homeopath--they are trained as a homeopath and are graduates of a good

school (the local one actually is considered the best homeopathy school in

North America!)

Now that may sound a bit odd, but there are people around whose training is

either non-existent or they are trained in other modalities with

homeopathy as an add-on or after thought.

As an example, naturopathic practitioners may practice homeopathy, but even

the best school in the US, Bastyr in Seattle, only requires its grads to

take 100 hours of homeopathy training. The local school requires over 1500

hours of homeopathy training. So....which school do you think turns out

better homeopaths?

I have quite a number of NDs who refer patients to me when a person

clearly needs homeopathy because they say they can handle the acute ailments,

the

colds and flus and tummy aches. But they neither have the time nor

inclination to do the long-term, constitutional homeopathy that takes much more

time and study to get good at.

And if you want to take your kids to a homeopath, make sure that person is

experienced with kids, likes kids and is good at treating kids. There are

a number of homeopaths around who have no kids or don't like kids, don't

like working with kids or who just aren't very good at figuring out kids. (I

know this because I get A LOT of transfers from these practitioners, who

might be good practitioners for adults, but not for kids).

Ask questions, chat with the practitioner, see how they respond to your

questions, check to see how available they are during off hours (most people

get sick outside of office hours!).

Often, when people think that homeopathy doesn't work for them, it is more

likely their practitioner failed them rather than homeopathy failed them.

Blessings,

beth

Academy of Naturopathic Physicians, HANP, for three years and got to know NDs

and their schools and their blindspots up close and personal!)

Personally, i think Homeopathy is a great alternative if it works for you

and it might be a cure for most things but many not be for all.

In our experience it did not work for our daughter at all. we tried and

tried for almost 1 year with no improvement. After that we tried NATE for 8

months for allergies and saw some improvement. We again went back to the

homeopath and tried for another 6 months without any changes. He was perplexed

with our situation. He couldn't help us. He tried his level best.

Sometimes, things that work for one many not work for the other. This was a big

learning experience for me. Now i am more balanced with my opinion on

alternative health remedies including western meds. I am not biased.

So, i would do my own research, keep an open mind and do what i think is

best in my childrens interest.

God bless.

Look up Sheri Nakken's website, _www.nccn.net/Look up SLook up Sheri

(_http://www.nccn.http://www.nchttp://www._

(http://www.nccn.net/~wwithin/vaccine.htm) ) , she has done a ton of research

and

ALL of her information is from very credible sources such as the CDC and

the

vaccine manufacturers.

It is amazing, if you go thru her site, that what the CDC and the

manufacturers state about the efficacy and (lack of) safety of the

vaccines is VERY

different from what your doctor will tell you.

Right now the push is on to vaccinate everyone over 6 months of age with

both the " regular " and the swine flu vaccines--not because we will face a

bad

flu year but because if the vaccines aren't used up, they will expire and

then the government will have to buy them all from the vaccine

manufacturers. Or they will (and do) just declare that expired vaccines

actually....actually....<WBR>haven't expired after all and are.....good to

use sti

magical what simple declarations can do to change reality <sarcasm>.

The site is organized by vaccine/disease so you can check out each

vaccine.

One quote by a former vaccine researcher: " The safest vaccine is one you

don't use. "

If you keep your baby healthy by feeding nutrient dense foods, using

homeopathy and keeping your stress level manageable, you should do fine.

And

really think about whether it would be necessary to vaccinate against the

" normal " childhood diseases such as chicken pox. With homeopathy, chicken

pox

really isn't a big deal at all.

Blessings,

beth (who has had way too many vaccine-damaged kids brought in for

help--which homeopathy does a very nice job with, but why go to vaccines

when

homeopathy can help a child thru an ailment so well).
