History Of Homeopathy

The Use of Homeopathy in Pediatric Medicine

 

Homeopathy and pediatrics is a combination that many are not accustomed to thinking about explicitly.  In fact, homeopathy is regularly used to treat children throughout many parts of the developed world. Although most know very little about homeopathic medicine, following Chinese medicine, homeopathy is the second most prevalent branch of medicine on the planet. Homeopathy is used to treat diseases in children ranging from semi-serious illnesses to the common cold.  Although homeopathy works in a number of ways, its most basic function is to help strengthen and focus a child’s immune system when they are sick based on the symptoms and root cause of the ailment.  Once their own immune systems become stronger, they are able to fight off diseases more effectively.
What makes homeopathy particularly suited to pediatrics is that the medicine is often sweet and appealing, and has little to no side effects. The pleasant taste combined with the low incidence of side effects such as nausea or drowsiness, ensures that the child will be more likely to take the medication on a regular basis.

Typical Applications of Homeopathy in Pediatrics
Homeopathic treatment usually falls into two categories; either acute or chronic conditions. Acute conditions refer to a sick child that is suffering from such illnesses as colds, sore throats, or the stomach flu. Chronic conditions refer to ailments such as allergies, asthma or any number of skin diseases. Whether dealing with acute or chronic conditions in children, homeopathy has proven to be quite effective.  In the case of acute conditions, parents often can treat the child at home with homeopathy.

Over the Counter Products
Parents who choose to treat children with an acute condition at home should consider taking the Homeopathy 101 course.
Homeopathic medicines are free of artificial colors and chemicals and are usually considered safe for infants and children.
Homeopathic medicines come in pills and liquid form. The medicine that is prescribed depends on three things: the type of medicine that is being given, its strength, and the condition of the patient.
