Pregnancy and Homeopathy
| Homeopathy is ideal for women in their childbearing years as it is a gentle approach to healing. During pregnancy, some women will choose to live with the discomfort of minor complaints such as morning sickness, constipation or heartburn, rather than seek treatment because they are concerned about the possible side effects of orthodox medicines on their unborn child. Homeopathic medicines are safe for your growing baby because only a minute amount of the active ingredient is used in their preparation. The remedies are thought to work by stimulating the body’s own healing powers. Good homeopathic treatment prior to conception can prepare you for a healthy pregnancy By stimulating your vitality in pregnancy, homeopathic treatment will benefit your baby. By staying as healthy as possible during pregnancy, you are giving your baby the ideal conditions in which to thrive. Many homeopaths will also offer advice on your diet and lifestyle to encourage a healthy pregnancy and birth. Physical and emotional changes during pregnancy may cause minor health problems such as nausea, mild urinary problems, diarrhoea, heartburn, anaemia, varicose veins, backache, cramps, thrush or emotional distress. All these problems and more potentially complicated symptoms such as raised blood pressure, can also be helped by professional homeopathic treatment. Homeopathy is ideal for babies and children as it is a gentle therapy. The small, mildly sweet pills, powders or liquids are easy to dispense and are more palatable than many conventional medicines. The highly diluted natural substances that form homeopathic remedies mean that they are safe to use in the very young, including newborn babies. Moreover, homeopathy can boost the immune system of your children to help deal with illness throughout their childhood. Homeopathy may not only help when your child is ill, it may also help prevent illness and give support through difficult periods of their life.
