A Look at Homeopathy
Will Homeopathy Work for You?
By Kelly Camden, Certified Doula
Where will I find the remedies?
Homeopathic remedies are available through homeopathic practitioners, at health food stores and online. A practitioner may provide you with a different dosage than what is available at the store. Practitioners are experienced with interviewing clients to elicit very specific information about the symptoms, in order to choose the optimal remedy. The labels on the remedies are very basic; the remedy also treats many other symptoms that are not listed on the label.
How do I find a homeopathic practitioner?
By conducting an online search for "find a homeopath," you may find contact information for a practitioner in your area. Speaking with holistically minded practitioners is also a good way to find a referral. A midwife, massage therapist, acupuncturist, chiropractor or herbalist is someone who is likely to know a homeopath.
Where can I find more information?
Here is a list of resources that can help:
- ABC Homeopathy
- National Center for Homeopathy
- Holistic Pediatric Association
- Consumer's Guide to Homeopathy (Tarcher, 1996) by Dana Ullman
- Healing with Homeopathy (Warner Books Inc., 1996) by Wayne Jonas and Jennifer Jacob
- Homeopathic Remedies for Women (Healing Arts Press, 1999) by Trevor Smith
- Homeopathic Remedies for Pregnancy and Childbirth (North Atlantic Books, 1992) by Richard Moskowitz
