F or cLNiukiLS, homeopathy has been safely and success­fully used to treat a plethora of common conditions asso­ciated with pregnant and nursing women. Not only does homeopathy assist in treating the mother during pregnancy or nursing, but it also enhances the health of the unborn or nurs­ing child as well. I have let my pregnant and nursing patients know that we are actually treating two for the price of one! Homeopathy is a therapy that works gently and safely, yet is restorative in its deep-working actions. 3t haa pwuen to. 6e (tigMyeffecthicfaimaiu/aftfiecommwifieaMcetidUiciuafpxeg-ncuictf., iiiduditig: Aiatiiing tickneai, ptevention, fJostemia, AC ueina, MemtwtAoicb, • Qdtiatcuice with a iafet, hcxdthiex, and fo>tex detw&a/., and » diiiitance with a tafen, hecdthiex and faiten leawwuj.. Dr. James Tyler Kent, the father of American homeopathy, said, "A pregnant woman is more sensitive to the indicated (homeopathic) remedy than at any other time.... The physi­ological functions are more active and, because great changes are occurring throughout the whole organism, the remedy has a much better opportunity to do its work." The amazing truth is that the very best possible time to treat a woman homeopathically is during pregnancy. It appears as though the new life growing within her brings out unique symp­tomatic communication patterns to express a woman's specific needs for certain homeopathic remedies to maximize her health as well as the health of her baby. Pregnancy has become known as a time predictions are use­less and all the rules change. Interestingly, though, the signifi­cant changes observed in the pregnant mother are often key indicators for the treatment of her developing infant's needs. Like chiropractic, homeopathy activates the appropriate, in­nate communications of the body, and is more strategically re­lated to chiropractic than any other protocol. In fact, homeopa­thy corrects nerve interferences throughout the whole nervous system where the hands of the chiropractor cannot reach. Atiacaxxiagea Homeopathy has been remarkably effective in the correction and prevention of miscarriage. If a patient displays symptoms of a potential miscarriage, homeopathy should be quickly imple­mented with dosages as often as every half-hour during the symptomatic stage. This patient should be seen frequently, and reflex response tests employed as a key to discover the correct remedies, administer optimal dosages, and maximize re- suits. Actually, the best time for treatment of a patient with a history of miscarriage(s) is before she tries to become preg­nant. This is a good time for a proactive approach to begin working with related homeopathic remedies.

Working as an adjunct with standard medical procedures—even though they often have very little to offer in most cases—is always helpful. CAUdxen and JVewSwna Again, homeopathy has the proven safety profile for confi­dently and effectively treating both children and newborns. Pure water-based homeopathic products provide the purest base for the purest form of medicine—homeopathy. Newborn babies and children are much more safely treated homeopathi-cally, without the traditional stabilizers of alcohol-, sugar-, or glycerin-based products. People on, multiple medications This issue of conflicting medications has become a primary problem for healthcare providers, as well as a major concern to patients. Homeopathy is the only health protocol that has dem­onstrated through its time-tested record to have no known nega­tive drug interactions. The practice of homeopathy is the only approach that can make this claim. It is, literally, the safest healthcare practice on the planet! &Hoaen Safety, of. Mameapatfiy. Homeopathic medicines are made from official homeopathic ingredients monographed in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States. This is the official US governmental com­pendium that recognizes homeopathy as being the only 100% safe therapeutic product. All ingredients have been reviewed for efficacy, toxicology, adverse effects and clinical use. For over 200 years, the safety and therapeutic potential of homeopathy has been widely acknowledged and accepted in the vast global perspective. In fact, the World Health Organiza­tion (WHO) reports homeopathy as the second most widely used medical modality for primary healthcare worldwide, allo­pathic medicine as a distant fourth. The FDA drug monitoring process does not reveal any sig­nificant instances of problems with homeopathic drug prod­ucts, thus establishing a positive safety profile. The historic time-tested safety records and results of homeopathy are un­precedented in the history of all medicine. In over 200 years of clinical use, homeopathy has had no recorded side effects, no known negative drug interactions, no contraindications of any kind, and is also proven to be non-habit forming. This time-tested safety profile applies to preg­nant and nursing woman, children and newborns, as well as people on multiple medications. Due to the strong and rightful warnings from the Surgeon General and the medical profession, expectant mothers are ob­viously concerned about consuming substances during preg­nancy that could harm the developing baby. While homeopa­thy has distinguished itself by becoming the first to ascend to the status of an all-natural drug product registered with the FDA, homeopathic products are required to use the standard over-the-counter warnings required for allopathic products on their label. These warnings are aimed primarily at alcohol, cof­fee, and drugs, but they encompass herbal and nutritional supple­ments and homeopathic products as well. Pregnant or nursing women are encouraged to seek the advice of a healthcare pro­fessional before usage. Fortunately, as a healthcare profes­sional, a chiropractor can confirm the safety of using homeo- pathic products during pregnancy and nursing. tDiapeUittg. Common Cencetna Why is homeopathy so safe compared to other natural products like nutrition and herbs? Nutrition, herbs, and drugs work from a bio-chemical perspective. Home­opathy, with its serial dilutions and suc­cessions commonly beyond the molecu­lar level, works more from a b\o-energetic perspective. Homeopathy functions sub­tly, but deeply, within the inner energetic control mechanisms of the body to cor­rect interferences. And, although more corrective and curative, it does not force itself upon the body as a bio-chemical substance that must be dealt with. A subtle energetic substance can be either accepted or rejected by the body. For example, the cellular, satellite, radio, and TV waves in our atmosphere have no function within us; only those things pro­grammed to accept these wavelengths will receive them. Can a homeopathic medicine hurt you? Some people may notice certain tempo­rary symptoms from taking a homeo­pathic. I call these symptoms good symp­toms—evidence that your body is work­ing to eliminate certain toxins that may be causing health problems. Homeopathy functions to express "''<$ our natural health potentials rather than to suppress symp­toms. ■New- Seating. fPiocedwied The use of bio-response tests (kinesiology, leg length, electro-acupuncture testing, etc.) provides confirmation as to which homeopathic products are needed or not needed by the indi­vidual. With the highly individualized healing art of homeopa­thy, these tools are of paramount importance for the practitio­ner to take homeopathy to a more effective treatment level and proactive level of prevention.
