TIPS FROM THE MASTERS…

 None of us think of ARNICA and RANUNCULUS BULBOSIS, as often as we should in cases of intercostals muscular or nerve pain.  They are both very valuable in inter-costal neuralgia.

Dr. Carl. A. Williams, M.D.

 It is because of one’s happy experiences in the case of Shingles with RANUNCULUS BULBOSIS that one is impelled to honor them.  In the course of years, one has had many cases of Herpes Zoster to treat, and fails to remember a RANUNCULUS case where a few doses of a high potency did not wipe out the trouble in a couple of days, pain and all.

Dr. Hughes, L.R.C.P.

 Some 80% of fever blisters can be quickly cured often in 36 hours with NATRUM MUR in 6x, 12xor 30^th potencies. I have seen some cases of fever blisters cured as if by magic with RANUNCULUS BULBOSIS or RANUNCULUS SCLERATUS, which would not respond with NATRUM MUR in any potency.

Dr. E. Petric Hoyle.

 Inter-costal rheumatism yields far more quickly to RANUNCULUS BULBOSIS than to any other. There is usually a great deal of soreness to touch; the muscles feel bruised as if they had been pounded.  I know that ACONITE, ARNICA or BRYONIA is often given when RANUNCULUS is indicated.

Dr. Farrington, M.D.

Introduction:

 Springtime is the time for colds and flu all over the world. There is a very famous saying about cold and I quote -“spring is not the best of seasons. Cold and flu are two good reasons; wind and rain and other sorrow, warm today and cold tomorrow. Whoever said spring was romantic?  The word that best applies is frantic!”-Unquote.

 The common cold and flu are essentially viral diseases and they defy all forms of orthodox treatment. In the old days it was taught to medical students that the common cold could be cured with medicines in one week and without medicines in seven days. This statement only reflects the frustration physicians and patients face while dealing with these debilitating and irritating diseases.

 Some non-pharmacological ways of dealing with cold and flu:

• Salt-water rinsing of the nostrils to avoid nasal congestion,
• Covering up to stay warm and complete rest in bed.
• Salt water gargling can moisten a sore throat and bring some relief. Gargling with tea is also helpful. Some people gargle with honey mixed with raspberry leaves and lemon juice.
• Drinking plenty of warm liquids can help relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed nasal membranes
• Taking a piping hot shower can moisturize the nasal passages and relax the aching body in cold and flu..

Eating certain foods that are rich in Vitamin A & C

• Bananas
• Bell Peppers.
• Blueberries lower fevers and help with the aches and pains
• Carrots
• Chilli Peppers can open sinuses.
• Cranberries
• Mustard & Horseradish helps break up mucus in air passages.
• Onion: Has phytochemicals that help in clearing infections.
• Rice useful in influenza with diarrhoea.
• Tea: Black and green tea act like natural antibiotics
• Lemon and honey juice boost the immune system
• Cayenne pepper helps keep you warm if you have a fever
• Chamomile tea: gives good sleep and relaxation.
• Peppermint tea is useful when sinuses are blocked.
• Ginger is useful for flu with stomach problems
• Thyme is a good herb in coughs.
•  Oregano: is good for colds and coughs.
•  Sage is an excellent herb for sore throats and fevers.
•  Cinnamon is an immune booster.

Conclusion:

Even though natural methods are useful and gentle, care should be taken while prescribing these medicines in the elderly and the very young.  In both these cases a common cold can turn into a dangerous chest infection and if unchecked can lead to extreme morbidity and even death.

PYROGENIUM.

TIPS FROM THE MASTERS…

 In post-operative cases, where the patient becomes overwhelmed with sepsis and sinks into typhoid like state, jeopardizing the success of the operation, which was carefully planned and skillfully executed.  PYROGENIUM if exhibited at the proper time instead of deluging the sufferer with narcotics will shield the operator from many days of anxiety both as to his patient’s welfare and his reputation.

Dr. F. Aguilar, M.D.

Suppuration after operation: Homeopathic suppuration remedies plus PYROGEN.

Dr. George Burford.

In my hands, PYROGEN cured septic Influenza, puerperal pyelitis and post-operative pyrexia and it will continue to cure other septic diseases showing the typical symptoms.

Dr. Dorothy Shepherd.

When a blanket of chemotherapy is apparently indicated, try PYROGEN in 200^th potency a few doses pre and post-operatively and reserve chemotherapy to be used later if really required, unless there is overwhelming infection.

Dr. Foubister, M.B., Ch.B., D.C.H.

PYROGEN for septic wounds that rapidly involves the heart and other vital centers of the body.

Dr. A. H. Grimmer, M.D.

I have found PYROGEN invaluable in fevers of septic origin, all forms when BAPTISIA, ECHINACEA, RHUS TOX or the best-selected remedy fails to relieve or permanently improve, study PYROGEN.

Dr. H C Allen, M.D.

PYROGEN has a great reputation in the USA for its power of expelling the retained placenta and one has seen it with cows also.

Dr. Tyler, M.D.

American doctors find one of their most dramatic uses for PYROGEN in sepsis after delivery with offensive discharges and where part of the placenta has been retained. They say that they give PYROGEN and it ‘pops out’.

Dr. Tyler, M.D.

Pelvic cellulites in women: Pain in the affected part so severe at times as not permit patient to stand, sit or remain lying.  Here, PYROGENIUM proves itself superior to MORPHINE, every time, relieving the pain permanently as a rule.

Dr. F. Aguillar, M.D.

I prescribe PYROGEN very often especially for Influenza. It works wonderfully.  It works wonderfully. It cures Influenza, but nevertheless the constitution remains the same. Afterwards I must prescribe something else.

Dr. Bellokossy, M.D.

Fever: during convalescence after confinement; after curettage of the uterus etc: PYROGEN 30 or 200 every 3 to 4 hours and cease directly the temperature falls.

Dr. G. Budford.

It is extremely useful to employ PYROGEN especially in cases where there is insufficient reaction to or insufficient improvement.  If for instance, patient suffering from tuberculosis, carcinoma etc., improve in a sluggish manner or do not improve at all, it wound seem wise to give a few doses of PYROGEN, a dose once a week- on the assumption of septic focus which is obscure.

Ellis Barker.

Those cases that simulate Typhoid fever, and the positive diagnosis is only established after the Widal reaction has decided one way or the other, respond well to PYROGEN.

Dr. F. Aguilar, M.D.

PYROGEN is sometimes useful when there is a history of septicemia, severe after-effects of dental extraction, or ill health commencing after an abortion in the absence of any obvious pelvic pathology.

Dr. Foubister, M.B., Ch.B., D.C.H.

PYROGEN is indicated in:

1. Threatening cardiac failure in zymotic or septic fevers.
2. Fever at each menstrual period, consequent upon latent pelvic inflammation.
3. Rapid decubitis of septic origin.

Introduction:

Quantum-Touch is a method of natural healing that works with the Life Force Energy (LFE) of the body to promote wellness. Life Force Energy, also known as “chi” in Chinese and “prana” in Sanskrit, is the flow of energy that sustains all living beings. Quantum-Touch teaches us how to focus, amplify, and direct this energy, for a wide range of benefits.

Quantum-Touch is an effective method for reducing back pain , realigning structure, balancing organs, glands and systems, reducing muscle aches, healing injuries, healing burns, and so much more.

How does it work?

Healing is fascinating and it is poorly understood. It must be realized that all healing is self healing. The body is an extraordinary instrument that has an extraordinary intelligence and ability to heal itself. Given the right energetic, emotional, nutritional, and spiritual environments, the natural state of the body is perfect health. Although all healing is self healing, people can be assisted to heal with their own healing process.

Quantum-Touch uses life-force energy (known as “chi” in Chinese and “prana” in Sanskrit) to facilitate healing. The Quantum-Touch techniques teach us how to focus and amplify life-force energy by combining various breathing and body awareness exercises.

Using the Quantum-Touch techniques, we can create a high frequency of life-force energy. If we place this field of high energy around an area of pain, stress, inflammation, or disease, the body can heal itself.

Benefits of Quantum Healing:

This modality has been found to be useful in several conditions such as:

• Acceleration of the Healing Process.
• Transformation of Structure – Multiple Sclerosis, Scoliosis, Scurvy.
• Movement of Bones into Correct Alignment.
• Inflammation due to injury is rapidly reduced.
• Emotional and psychological conditions respond well to Quantum-Touch.
• Induction of sleep or deep meditation.
• Distant Healing.

Conclusion:

Quantum-Touch works with the premise that the body, given the right conditions, knows how to heal itself.  Quantum-Touch appears to be more effective when someone else is working on you, rather than doing energy healing on yourself.  Quantum-Touch addresses the root cause of disease and creates the space for true healing to occur.

TIPS FROM THE MASTERS…

 PULSATILLA will empty the majority of the pus tubes.

Dr. Boger. M.D.

 After labor, PULSATILLA is very useful in promoting the secretion of milk when this is deficient, or in improving the quality.

Dr. Hughes, L.R.C.P.

 The Obstetrician of Durham College in 1901 at a clinic, witnessed by a group of students, changed a breech presentation to a normal delivery in less than a minute by 1 dose of PULSATILLA CM. Dr. Kent reported a similar result, In fact, there are several cases on record.  When you have a case of prolonged labor with no progress, in a woman inclined to be fat, with a mild, tearful disposition, who pleads with you to open the window, as she is smothering, and you think it is a case for forceps delivery, just hunt for the forceps, while your nurse gives the patient a dose of PULSATILLA anywhere from 30 to the CM.  You will lay your forceps aside unless there is a malformation.

Dr. William H. Schwart. M.D.

When molar pregnancy is discovered, PULSATILLA is the best remedy to be administered with reference to expulsion of the degenerate ovum.

Dr. Sheldon Leavitt, M.D.

 Ascites due to menstrual difficulties especially at puberty or at the menopause is cured by PULSATILLA.

Dr. Jousett.

 For gouty symptoms in women at menopause, study BURSA PASTORIS AND PULSATILLA.

Dr. Burnett, M.D.

 If there are no specific reasons for other remedies, I start treatment in young girls with mild catarrhal discharge (leucorrhoea) by giving PULSATILLA especially if the discharge is thick like cream, and then SULFUR or SEPIA according to symptoms.  If these remedies are not sufficient to affect a cure, then CALC. CARB or GRAPHITES come in question.  In children, MERCURY or CALC CARB is mostly indicated.

Dr. Wassily.

 Mothers come to hospital; “cannot think of what is the matter with the child”; it is so grizzly lately, PULSATILLA generally cures.

Dr.Tyler, M.D.

Don’t forget the young nursing babies whose greatest fault is constipation – remember to give the mother PULSATILLA 12x every 2 hours for several days and watch the baby’s constipation correct itself.

Dr. Bonnell, M.D.

 PULSATILLA is a specific for a cough, which is loose by day, but becomes dry and tickling on lying down at night.

Dr. Hirschall.

I want you not to select PULSATILLA for a loose cough unless you are sure that all the symptoms of the case call for it; it often tightens such a cough without curing it.

Dr. Farrington, M.D.

PULSATILLA is often a valuable palliative in nocturnal loose cough, as of phthisis; and is sometimes the best medicine in sub-acute and chronic bronchitis occurring in delicate persons and accompanied with much mucous expectoration.

Dr. Hughes, L.R.C.P.

In my own hands, PULSATILLA assumes a growing importance as a reducer of the prostatic irritation, which troubles so many elderly men.  I find the 6^th dilution most effective.

Dr. Krussler.

In cases of orchitis, our first remedy is not SPONGIA; PULSATILLA stands at the head of the list and next to it we may rank HAMMEMELIS.  The later drug could be used both locally and internally. It relieves the intense soreness and enables the patient to attend to his duties.

Dr. F. A. Farrington, M.D.

I have repeatedly found the administration of PULSATILLA helpful in removing the objection to fatty kinds of food.

Dr. Ruddock, M.D.

PULSATILLA will blight a sty in the eye almost as effectually as BELLADONNA will a boil.

Dr. Hughes, L.R.C.P.

PULSATILLA is a better antidote to Whiskey than even NUX VOMICA.

Dr. Hering, M.D.

As an orthodox practitioner, you cannot go far wrong if you give the patient a few powders of this remedy, for there is no other treatment for Measles apart from nursing and commonsense, but if you give PULSATILLA, which is so often indicated and it happens to be the right remedy, as it usually is in 9 cases out of 10, you are unlikely to be troubled with any of its troublesome complications.

Dr. R. Kerr Shearer.

For the twitching of the eyelids with dazzling of sight, with which some patients are annoyed, I know of no remedy so useful as PULSATILLA.

Dr. Hughes. L.R.C.P.

PULSATILLA will cure earache in almost all sensitive children who cry pitifully.  But those who are snappish, who are never suited, who will throw away something they have asked for and slap the nurse in the face, must have CHAMOMILLA. With PULSATILLA, CHAMOMILLA & ALLIUM CEPA, you can cure the majority of earaches in children.

PULSATILLA, above all other remedies, has the power to unlock suppressions of modern serum therapy.

Dr. T. K. Moore, M.D.

PULSATILLA is probably the strictly homeopathic remedy that I use most often in early Tuberculosis.

Dr. Walter Sand Mills, M.D.

These three. SANGUINARIA, IRIS & MELILOTUS together with PULSATILLA and IPECAC can have and will take care of most headaches.  And this is not after the manner of Aspirin and its companion sedatives, but carefully matched removes it lock, stock and barrel.

Dr. T. K. Moore, M.D.

Dr. Roberts has said to me many times that PULSATILLA is the great un-locker of suppressions.

Dr. Allen D. Sudherland, M.D.

Inflammation of the parotids (Mumps) changing of the testes or mammae is generally cured by CARBO VEG or PULSATILLA, but ABRONATUM has cured when these remedies have failed.

Dr. Kent.

Introduction:

A healthy metabolism is not merely to have a thin body. A healthy metabolism is also  beneficial for fertility, a good immune function, lean muscle mass, lower rates of degenerative diseases and infectious diseases, brain functionality, longevity, having more energy

The brain is the best benefited of a good metabolism because of its extremely high demands for energy.  Metabolism naturally and constantly slows after age 40. This means that as you age, you need to start increasing your metabolism in order to maintain your health and be youthful.

Determinants of a good metabolism:

They include your gender, genetic makeup, age, hormonal health, body composition (percent of muscle mass and fat), and level of activity. Your metabolic rate has a big effect of on your energy levels, mood, and appearance because it determines how well you can “burn” calories.

Signs that your metabolism is sluggish:

• feeling cold,
• ongoing fatigue
• dry skin
• thinning hair
• brittle fingernails
• trouble sleeping through the night
• bloating after eating
• constipation
• mood disorders like depression and anxiety
• frequently urinating
• struggling to lose weight
• trouble concentrating
• food allergies
• low energy levels
• getting sick more often

How to improve your metabolism:

Getting good sleep is a way to health. When the body is fatigued it slows down the metabolism in order to save energy. Lack of sleep is associated with high cortisol levels which are connected with weight gain, poor mental functioning, and becoming resistant to insulin.

Eat Metabolism Boosting Foods to Your Diet:

Add metabolism boosting foods to your diet such as garlic, cayenne pepper, chilli, cinnamon, ginger, green tea, and apple cider vinegar.

Avoid Unhealthy Foods

• processed foods
• sugary drinks
• artificial ingredients and sweeteners
• low-quality animal and dairy products

Conclusion:

Eating enough every day is critical for hormonal, cognitive, and overall health.  It is especially important to consume calories from various unprocessed whole foods.  Eat well and experience better digestion, positive moods and a desire to be active and more stable blood sugar levels.  By eating enough you’ll have more motivation to be active, gain muscle mass and strength quicker, and feel less fatigued.

 TIPS FROM THE MASTERS…

I recommend that PSORINUM be tried in hydrocoele, an affliction, which is hard to cure because it presents no indicating symptoms.  The favorable action of PSORINUM on fluids in hernial sacs suggest it for hydrocoele.

Dr. Goullon.

Whenever migraine comes, if the patient sits holding a hot sponge on his head: PSORINUM.

Dr. Blakie.

 PSORINUM is usually needed at some time during the treatment of fibroids.

Dr. Hayes, M.D.

 PSORINUM: This precious anti-psoric remedy has, at various times, in many years, done wonderful work in all types of malnutrition, due to any cause, whether, it be disordered digestion, rickets, scurvy, syphilis, the result of acute infections or secondary anemia.

Dr. William B. Griggs, M.D.

Schizophrenic patients are notoriously dirty and careless of personal appearance. SULPHUR & PSORINUM are medicines to be considered.

Dr. Foubister, M.B., Ch.B., D.C.H.

 Sometimes after acute or violent diseases we find the patient greatly prostrated.  For instance, after Typhoid fever, he is depressed in mind, weak in body, low spirited, hopeless of recovery and yet you know that there is no absolute certainty that the patient cannot get well: that there are no organic lesions remaining. He has weakening night sweats.  Perhaps SULPHUR has been given without result.  In such cases PSORINUM is the remedy.

Dr. Farrington, M.D.

 PSORINUM should be remembered for extreme weakness in acute disease or for after-effects of infectious diseases lasting for years, it clears up recurrent or confused states.

Dr. P Banerjee.

 Give PSORINUM after an acute attack of Appendicitis has subsided, to prevent return

Hom. Recorder. March’ 31.

 In my experience, PSORINUM is often indicated after PYROGEN.

Dr. E. Underhill. Jr. M.D.

 I have found, at least several times that a remedy like PSORINUM, which is so terribly chilly, is necessary in the course of treatment of deep allergies, in spite of the fact that the patient is very warm-blooded.

Dr. Schmidt. M.D.

 PSORINUM: I have stopped the sweating head of rickets after the failure of CALCIUM AND SILICA.

 Introduction:

Qigong is a unique Chinese Traditional technique.  It has the potential to re-structure medicine.  In “external” Qigong, the Qigong doctor does a non-touch energy assessment of the patient and actually projects or conducts Qi, or positive healing energy, in a treatment mode to the patient.

The Methodology:

In the assessment of the patient, rather than asking questions, taking pulses, observing the tongue, palpating reflexes and ordering lab tests, as is done in Western Orthodox medicine, the Qigong Doctor uses concentration, intuition and reading of the Qi energy with off the body diagnostic scanning.  In the treatment, the practitioner actually projects the Qi energy to have a healing effect.

Both these techniques seem impossible and fantastic, however, research is revealing that there may be authentic, explainable and demonstrable natural laws and mechanisms, upon which the operation of this therapy revolves.  Delores Krieger, a researcher of Qigong has shown that in-vivo hemoglobin values were significantly affected by the administration of this energy based technique. This therapeutic touch, which is an ‘off the body’ technique of assessing and healing has experienced a terrific interest the nursing community in the US.

Another unique aspect of Qigong doctors is that a number of them have developed the ability to manipulate the limbs of the patients and research participants from a distance, effect changes in the physical or chemical properties of research materials with intention and even cause anesthesia by pointing the Qi energy at certain acupuncture points.

The current status of Qigong:

Dr. Zhang Yu of the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Xi Yuan Hospital has amazed groups of American observers with his external conductance ability.  In October 1986, an article in the LA Times revealed the ability of Master Xun Yunkun to treat terminally ill cancer and paralytic patients, with Qi projection.  Master Xun has also treated patients of Parkinson’s disease, Arthritis and other crippling diseases, by harnessing electrical energy and projecting it across a distance to effect healing.

The American Foundation of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Stanford University have teamed up and are doing a collaborative research project on Bio-luminesence and Qigong with a focus of satisfying the rational research model.

Already, about 128 research papers were presented in the First World Conference for the Academic Exchange of Medical Qigong in 1988, which was sponsored by the China Medical Association, the Chinese Ministry of Health, China Qigong Research Institutes and the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine and health experts attended this conference from about 17 countries.

Conclusion:

 Qigong doctors and such therapies must be encouraged because it has a potential for all health seekers to move toward freedom from dependence upon health experts outside themselves, through self applied Qigong techniques.

It is a pity that we as Indians are the closest neighbours of China, but we know very little of their Traditional Medicine and rich culture.

Introduction:

The human body is actually an “energy being” living in an ocean of vibrating frequency. If our resonance is harmonious we are healthy and if our frequencies are dissonant we become diseased. The good thing is that we can re-pattern our vibrations and gain happiness from within, access our inner strength and handle life’s challenges.

How is re-patterning done?

The model of Holographic Re-patterning is based on a hologram, and upon the fact that we ourselves are holograms. A hologram is a three-dimensional image that you can walk around, that looks completely real, but is made of frequencies of light.  Modern physics has found that it is likely that the human brain, the whole human system, and in fact the whole of creation is just a hologram.  It is made of frequencies and it looks real, but it is not.  Even this physical body which seems so concrete is actually a field of energy frequencies.  If we are a hologram as the physicists propose, we are an infinite field of frequencies, and within our system everything is stored, all knowledge, all wisdom, the divine, all history of evolution is stored in the hologram that we are.

A Resonance Re-patterning session accesses this information through applied Kinesiology. The body is a map of your life’s experiences.  A session identifies unconscious issues that are blocking and depleting your life energy.  Pain is a disruption or blockage of your life energy. In the course of a session, self-healing modalities release and restore the body-mind field so that there is greater resonance with your positive intentions.

Benefits of Holographic re-patterning:

With the help of a trained guide the subject is made to identify old habit patterns through Applied Kinesiology and the subject is made to form new pathways and this naturally heals the subject. Most subjects report seeing benefits in their health after the very first session.

Conclusion:

Most subjects, who feel stuck in their life in the physical, emotional or mental field experience a great sense of freedom and confidence after a few sessions this therapy
