Irish Homeopaths Serving the Homeopathic Community in Ireland

Tara Rafferty & Suzi Duff from the Wicklow Homeopathy Clinic recently visited Farokh Master's clinics in Mumbai and Puna, India. Here's Tara's account of their trip

Suzi, Tara and Annemarie recently returned from a short trip to India.

We were invited to visit Dr Farouk Master’s clinic in Mumbai (Bombay), to observe the day to day running of a homeopathic clinic, prescribing and treatment Indian style. He has a second clinic in Poona, which Suzi ands Annemarie got the chance to visit. It is a state of the art hospital where he receives referrals from other consultants.

With the Olympics , this year the emphasis is upon

“The Benefits of Homoeopathy in Sports Medicine.”

The advantages that a Homoeopathic remedy has over traditional medications is the absence of both side effects and the danger of banned substances.

Homoeopathic remedies are well known for healing sprains, bruises, fractures, cuts and bruises etc.

Homeopaths and homeopathy supporters are joining forces this week in recognition of World Homeopathy Awareness Week (10 – 16th April 2008).  This year’s theme is The Benefits of Homeopathy in Sports Medicine. 

This beautifully designed 3rd year Homeopathy project (submitted in 2007) from Carola Pollak at the Irish School of Homeopathy in Dublin details a family of homeopathic remedies all derived from the issuances of Volcanoes: Sulphur, Hecla Lava, Fluoricum Acidum, Arizona Lava, Etna Lava and Cinis Popo.

This is a Project on the Homeopathic Bowel Nosodes of Bach and Paterson, their history, theory, practice guidelines and remedy descriptions with mind maps. Covers the remedies Morgan Pure, Morgan Gaertner, Gaertner, Proteus, Sycotic Co., Dysentry Co., plus notes on probiotics, antibiotics bowel flora and connections to other remedies.

'Flus and Tummy bugs

At the moment there seems to be a variety of  ‘flus, coughs and tummy problems making the rounds. Sometimes the three are together and some times separate. What do you look for to select an appropriate remedy that will act homoeopathically? 

The European Union is currently working to set maximum levels for vitamin and mineral supplements on sale in Ireland and throughout the EU. The Irish Government has proposed these should be no higher than RDA levels, i.e. the minimum amount you need to prevent deficiency disease.  In other words, the RDA level of vitamin C, being 60mg a day, is enough to prevent scurvy but this measure is virtually useless for supporting your immune system.  RDA levels are very much lower than amounts needed to support optimal health.

I'm running another Introduction to the Bach Flower Remedies and Essences coming up shortly on Saturday 14th of July. It will be in room 8 at Milltown Park in Ranelagh from 10am to 4.30 to 5pm.

The day is a hands-on session of working with the Bach Flowers and attendees should come away with a good overview of Flower Essences and how to use them for yourself and in your practice.

And with an updated design too. The week before the Conference, the site's database hiccoughed and threw out the permissions for just anyone to look at the content. This has been fixed now and this site's CMS, Drupal, upgraded to the latest version.

That's why we're sporting a new look, too. With Drupal's default theme, Minelli.
