Homeopathy a Boon For Childrens

Homeopathy is a system of medicine which aims to treat each particular individual be it a child or an adult. It represents real medical ecology based on natural scientific truths. It is non toxic and when properly administered with holistic approach does no harm to the body. It is also non invasive and works to help the body’s healing powers.
Children are most sensitive and purest gift of mankind. They require rapid, gentle and permanent cure for their small and big ailments.

Homeopathy uses medicines prepared from natural substances that are ‘similar to the illness’ unlike conventional medicines which treats and often suppresses the patient’s symptoms. Prescribed on its basic fundamental laws, Homeopathy is much safer and quicker than other modes of treatment.

The most common pediatric ailments which keep the parents sleepless / awake at nights, worrying about their children are:-

  • Recurrent infections (Tonsillitis, Adenoids, Diarrhea etc)
  • Delayed milestones
  • Dentition problems
  • Behavioral disorders
  • Bed-wetting
  • Stammering
  • Skin diseases
  • Worm infestations

RECURRENT INFECTIONS:

Includes fevers, Tonsillitis, Adenoiditis, Diarrhea, worms, respiratory allergies etc. All of these are due to low immune status of the child. Weak resistance of the child makes him prone to infections. Homeopathy can do wonders by enhancing the immunity level and make him more resistant to morbific agents.

DELAYED MILESTONES AND GROWTH RETARDATION:

Includes late learning to walk, talk, general retardation of growth, learning disabilities etc. Barring genetic causes, there are various environmental factors like nutrition, recurrent infections, insecure family circumstances, lack of proper love etc can hamper the normal growth of a child.

BEHAVIOURAL DISORDERS:

Parental disharmony, lack of proper love and care, domination, over protection; neonatal insults may lead to hyper anxiety states; maladjustment at school, with parents and siblings; temper tantrums; attention deficit disorders; sleep and appetite disturbances, stammering and bedwetting in children.

By taking into account of the patient as a whole and not just the illness, Homeopathy simultaneously confronts the symptoms, the patient’s constitution and even his psychological and emotional reactions.
A carefully selected medicine based on this holistic approach cures all the above mentioned diseases of children and many more.

So crux is, if you were to compare a patient with a locked safe and medicine as a key, then a Homeopathic consultation is like finding the right key and opening the door.
