Seasonal Allergies and Remedies that Match
Homeopathic remedies work by stimulating your own self healing mechanism to make the necessary changes so that your body doesn’t create this inappropriate response which we know as ‘an allergy’.
The remedies are chosen by matching their whole picture and energy frequency to your energy frequency. Therefore …. because we all experience our symptoms differently, 10 people who have seasonal allergies may have 10 different remedies.
In order to find the right homeopathic remedies to help relieve your current allergy symptoms you need to find the remedy which best fits all of your symptoms. As you use homeopathy you will get used to asking yourself more about the symptoms presenting and how they actually feel and how you feel emotionally whilst experiencing them.
- Start by collecting all of your symptoms and ask yourself:
- What makes them better or worse?
- Where do you feel it and does it move?
- At what time of day is it better or worse?
- How does it actually feel in your body?
- How do you feel when you have this symptom?
- What else happens when you have this symptom?
Once you have all of this information you can select the best remedy to use.
- Choose potency 12c or 30c.
- Once you have selected the right remedy take one dose (one pillule).
- If there is no change you can repeat the remedy after half an hour.
- If the symptoms go for a while and then come back you can retake the remedy.
- If your symptoms change then wait and see if they begin to disappear. If new symptoms develop you need to go back and choose the remedy which best fits the new set of symptoms.
- If no change after 3 doses then you need to go back and choose a better remedy. For lasting results please consult a homeopath who can work at addressing the cause of the allergy.
