Many individuals begin to notice positive improvements within the first couple of days or weeks following the health program customized specifically for them. Yet, if a person has had a chronic illness for a long time, we explain to give their body time for deep healing (at least 90 days for even bigger signs of healing to take place) + one additional month for each year that they’ve have had the condition.
Yes, absolutely! Due to the gentle nature of the treatment, homeopathy is frequently used on children worldwide. In our practice, we use homeopathy for almost all acute to chronic cases. If a child has a cold/flu and etc, we find that homeopathy works quite quickly. Also, in the United States, homeopathy is becoming increasingly popular with practitioners working with children with ADD/ADHD, Asperger’s Syndrome, and autism.
Our HumanKind homeopathic remedies are FDA-approved medicines made from small amounts of natural substances, including plants, minerals, and animal substances. They are highly diluted and given in very small doses to eliminate adverse reactions. The homeopathic is in a liquid form and is added to a water bottle, where it is sipped throughout the day. These do not have any interactions with any pharmaceutical medications.
Homeopathy is designed to re-balance the body on a nutrient, chemical, cellular and vibrational level- this is a form of powerful energy medicine.
