FYI
Just
click on the subject or question to help you understand the remedies
I sell and the consultations I offer.
What
exactly
is
a Homeopathic Remedy? Homeopathic medicine are
micro-dosed natural substances derived from botanical, animal or
mineral sources. A specific homeopathic medicine dilution is
obtained by a precise and controlled process of successive
"homeopathic dilution". The medicine is diluted or
de-concentrated and then vigorously shaken, traditionally referred to
as succussion. This process transforms the original substance
into a therapeutically active medicine.
Many, new to
homeopathy, mistake potency or dilution with strength. There is
actually no correlation between potency and the strength of a
homeopathic medicine. A homeopathic medicine at 30C potency is
not stronger than the same medicine at 6C or 3C. The difference
is in their action. While a 6C potency is better suited for a
local symptom, a 30C or higher potency is more appropriate for
general conditions such as allergy, stress or sleep disorders.
How do you make your remedies?
Celletech uses a modern remedy manufacturing
process called the Magnetic mechanical method. This method was developed in
England in the 1960's and 1970's by a group of leading homeopaths and engineers.
The method is based on the amplification of the energetic signatures of various
substances into a storage tincture. After amplification, the tincture is
succussed to set the amplified signature. The tincture is then applied to a
carrier of pellets or tablets. At Celletech™, all processes described
above are carried out in clean labs following Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).
In addition, Celletech processes are regulated by the FDA, Organic certifiers,
KOF-K (Kosher) certifiers, and state and federal agricultural departments.
What
do X, C, M, MM, and LM potencies mean?
Potency is shown after the remedy name. Decimal designation is X.
Centesimal designation is C. Millesimal designation is M. The lower
potencies X, stay in the body a short period of time and can be used
safely for repeat dosing. The X implies here that the medicine
is 1 part in 10 parts of med. carrier. Here the C implies that
the medicine is 1 part in 100 parts of med. carrier. Commonly
30C or 6X are in home kits and used for children, in treating sudden
illness and for first aid treatment. The medium C potencies are the
highest potency sold over-the-counter in health stores. M potencies
are a high potency. Your practitioner may recommend you need an M
potency which is
available through me
as a special order, for stubborn health problems or constitutional
treatment. I sell a new formula called
Celletech
Forte. Celletech,
following German homotoxicology studies, created the Forte potency.
The Forte potency is a combination of 6c, 12c, 30c, and 200c
potencies. When a Forte remedy is given, the body is able to choose
the potency it needs and discard the others. This is one of the major
advantages of energetic medicine. The body can select the best
frequency/potency at that moment in time and ignore frequencies,
without any confusion. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this dosage if you
are starting to use homeopathy or for building a home kit that will
be used by all ages for different lengths of time.
What
potency
should
I take?
Finding the best potency for a
remedy you are considering can be a confusing and sometimes daunting
task. One of the most important points to remember; Stronger (higher
potency) is not necessarily better. Here are our suggestions to help
guide you on your journey towards greater health.
-
6c: 2-4 times daily for up to a week - A 6c potency is best for
temporary relief of a minor acute problem - taken before gardening to help avoid overexertion, for occasional upset
stomach, perhaps some sleeplessness. It is also a useful potency to teach the
body. We use it for our Energy Enhancer Kit, where we help teach the body how to
create healthier cells. It can be taken two to four times per day for up to a
week.
-
30c: 2-4 times daily for a few days 30c is the best
potency for first aid. It is useful for colds and flu's, before
and after dental visits, and everyday household concerns.
-
200c: 1-2 times daily for no more than 2 days maximum.
The 200c potency is best for acute first aid for a more significant problem.
More often recommended by professionals.
-
Celletech Forte: Celletech, following German homotoxicology studies, created the Forte potency.
The Forte potency is a combination of 6c, 12c, 30c, and 200c potencies. When a
Forte remedy is given, the body is able to choose the potency it needs and
discard the others. This is one of the major advantages of energetic medicine.
The body can select the best frequency/potency at that moment in time and ignore
frequencies, without any confusion.
This is the one that really excites me to be able to
offer. Celletech Forte is only available from Celletech!! Carrie
-
1M, 10M, 50M,
CM, MM, 10MM
These remedies should only be given by
professionals and only one or two doses in a lifetime, never multiple
times per day for multiple days. Please actively question anyone
recommending otherwise. This should only be taken after a full
consultation with myself or another homeopath.
-
Other
potencies There are a wide variety of other
potencies available and described in the medical literature. Research
that Celletech principals have studied suggests that these potencies
are not as effective as the ones listed above. They can be useful when prescribed by a professional familiar with the specifics of remedy preparation.
What's the difference between an X and a C potency?
The letters used after the potency for a homeopathic remedy refer to the amount of dilution the original medicine has undergone while being prepared and the amount of amplification it has received. In the U.S. the 'X' dilution is more common, in Europe the 'C' is more common.
REMEMBER I offer very comprehensive diagnostic software
and over 18 years of homeopathic study and knowledge of homeopathic remedies
including study of the Materia Medica and studying even more extensively through
The
Avicenna Institute of Natural Healing.
What
is a Homeopathic Constitutional Remedy?
The
term homeopathic constitution encompasses all of the characteristics
of a person--it defines the connecting relationship between the
physical, emotional, and mental characteristics. Constitutional
analysis is inclusive of the whole person and is based on the
assumption that it is a state of being the person moves into as a
result of
emotional trauma. A constitution is not a personality
type
or individual, nor is it a set or permanent state that is
predetermined for life. A person moves into a constitutional state
and can stay in that constitution for a short or long time.
Homeopathic constitutional analysis is based on matching the person's
state to a homeopathic remedy.
The
Homeopathic Constitutional & Acute Condition Consultation
The
aim of homeopathic treatment is to understand why you have these
health problems at this time, to unravel the different strands in
your unique situation and to find the remedies that will create a
steady and continuing improvement in your health. During the first
consultation the homeopath endeavors to build up a well rounded
picture of you as an individual (and not just of the symptoms that
brought you for treatment). Homeopathy can only be effective when the
treatment is individualized.
This first appointment will be registering you into my online clinic and you
going through a VERY in depth questionnaire on my diagnostic site. The
benefits of using this site are:
- Faster, more convenient, and not being rushed at an office visit.
- Thorough questionnaires.
- A guarantee of not missing the details.
- An accurate diagnosis.
- A super-precise, individualized treatment.
- Quicker and more lasting recovery
and better health.
- This software, used by the top clinics worldwide, will help thoroughly gather the required information for your Health Profile.
In homeopathy we understand illness as a
multidimensional phenomenon, brought on by an internal disturbance
that manifests in each person in a uniquely characteristic way.
These
individual characteristics are the result of many different factors,
including heredity, life experiences, life style and the kind of
interventions you have had for your condition. Thus, the homeopathic
consultation is a gentle, yet thorough exploration of your physical
and emotional make up or constitution. Many people find this an
empowering and beneficial experience. I aim to facilitate
this
exploration in a way that is sensitive to your needs and which
respects your boundaries and wishes.
We
shall
talk about your expectations from homeopathy and how we can
work together in order to safely meet them; also we will mutually
agree on a course of treatment, with, usually, monthly appointments.
These appointments can be via chat, phone, email, or regular USPS
mail. There are two consultations I offer 1 is a basic consultation
that I will have you go to a site and answer questions about your
health mentally and physically. I will spend between 2-4 hours working up your case study and suggestions for homeopathic, herbal and other
holistic therapies that would be appropriate for you. The 2nd type of consultation will be more in depth
and I will send you my diagnosis and what I believe the correct
constitutional remedy should be using my schooling and 18 years of
experience. After the consultation you will receive your remedy
within 3-4 days after your consultation, with full instructions how
to take it.
What to
expect after taking the prescribed remedy? The
reaction to homeopathic remedies can differ from person to person.
Some people experience a significant improvement in their symptoms
and overall energy within a few weeks. With others the improvement
will be more gradual. Some people experience a brief intensification
of some symptoms which may last a few days, followed by a gradual and
steady improvement.
How
long will the treatment take? The
length of your treatment depends on a number of factors such as the
nature of your illness, how long you have had it, your response to
remedies and your present life circumstances. Normally I recommend
that people have a course of three months of treatment, at the end of
which we can discuss a prognosis for future treatment if
necessary.
Homeopathy
and
conventional drugs prescribed by your doctor
Homeopathic
remedies work effectively alongside most conventional drugs.
Moreover, they do not interfere with the action of the the medication
prescribed by your doctor. However, I have found that a limited
number of conventional drugs, such as steroids and other artificial
hormones can decrease the effectiveness of homeopathic remedies. This
means that the rate of improvement may be slower that expected.
I
am also interested to work in co-operation with your doctor,
especially when your aim is to reduce or stop taking certain types of
medication.
When
will I refer you to my teacher who is a Master Herbalist and
Naturopath? If
your diagnosis is not responding to the remedy or you have an
extensive amount of health conditions (like myself!) I will ask her
to help or refer you to her. Her name is Kristie Burns MH ND and she
started the “The
Avicenna Institute of Natural Healing”. To know more just

The FDA places very heavy restrictions on what a dietary supplement or
homeopathic company can say to you.
The FDA does not allow us to use
descriptive terms for our products. For instance, we cannot call a product that
works great for Allergies, Acute Allergy Attack, because that would be
interpreted as a disease diagnosis. This could be seen as a drug claim. We are
forced to call it something like Acute Nasal Balance. The only allergy treatment
products the FDA will allow are pharmaceutical drugs.
No, this doesn't make any more sense
to us than it does to you, but that is the current state of regulation in the
U.S. Why would the FDA take this stance? A variety of reasons have been
proposed. One that makes sense to us; If the FDA stops supplement and
alternative healthcare companies like ours from accurately describing their
products, you won't be able to find what you're looking for, you won't purchase
products, and alternative healthcare companies like ours will go out of
business. And you will be left with one choice for your healthcare:
pharmaceutical drugs. As a result you will note that many of our great
combination products use the word "Balance" in their product names. 'Balance' is
the best word we can use to describe the process of re-establishing health after
you experience a problem. In biological systems this form of balance is called homeostasis.
The FDA is actively trying to get around the dietary
supplement law. The FDA wants to put into place a regulation that will cause
dietary supplements, herbs and even juices to become reclassified as drugs, if
you intend to use them to treat a health problem.
What does this mean? If you intend to
treat a problem that the FDA classifies as a disease - like a cough for instance
- with your herb, juice or supplement, you have changed the juice, herb, or
supplement into a drug! If these shenanigans, or our inability to provide you
with accurate information, bothers you as much as it bothers us, please contact
your Representative by clicking
