Dr Hauschka

Certified Bio-Dynamic Skincare since 1935 - Where Science and Spirit Meet

As the protective covering of the body, the human skin is exposed to external and internal influences that can weaken it. This can result in unbalanced reactions such as dryness, lack of moisture or overproduction of oil, as well as premature aging.

Dr Hauschka Skin Care regards these changing skin conditions as transient skin profiles and do not divide the skin into types. Dr Hauschka Normalizing Day Oil, for example, helps to restore natural balance to oily, blemished skin. Given sufficient oil, the skin learns to regulate sebum production of its own accord. A clear, natural complexion results.

The skin is most active at night, and Dr Hauschka's oil-free night care supports the nocturnal metabolism of the skin. In order not to burden the skin's natural elimination processes at night with an oily skin care product, the Dr Hauschka skin care program for the night contains stimulating and regenerating plant essences. These allow the skin to breathe freely and overcome weaknesses and imbalances.

When doing a massage you will almost inevitably come across tender points on the body that seems to be asking to be pressed. When your masseur presses on these points, it may be painful at first, but it is usually a grateful pain. Pressure on these points can have a profound effect: it can relieve tension, release taut muscles, and eradicate pain.

What is Homeopathy?

How Homeopathy Began

What is Homeopathy?

Derived from the Greek word “Homoeos” meaning “like”, and “pathy” means “suffering”; homeopathy is a medical practice of treating like with like. That is, treating an illness with a substance that produces the same symptoms as those displayed by the person who is ill. Current medical opinion takes the view that the symptoms are a direct manifestation of that illness. Homeopathy by contract, sees the symptoms as the body’s reaction against the illness as it attempts to overcome it, and seeks to stimulate and not suppress this reaction.

Homeopathy is essentially a natural healing process, providing remedies to assist the patient regain health by stimulating the body’s natural force of recovery. It concentrates on treating the patient, rather than the disease.

One of the principles of homeopathy is that people vary in their response to an illness according to their basic temperament and responses and so prescribe on a more individual basis. Patients suffering from the same diseases often require different remedies. Likewise, patients with different diseases may all benefit from the same remedy.

 

How Homeopathy Began

Dr. Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), the great German physician, scholar and chemist in the late 18th and early 19th century, was the founder of homeopathy. Appalled by the existing medical practices which he believed often did more harm than good, Hahnemann sought a method which would be safe, gentle and effective. He believed that human beings have a capacity for healing themselves and that the symptoms of disease reflect the individual’s struggle to overcome his illness. Thus the homeopath’s task must be to discover and, if possible, remove the cause of the trouble and to stimulate the body’s natural healing power.

In his experiments, Hahnemann found that remedies obtained from animal, vegetable, mineral and, more rarely, biological materials were effective in extreme dilution. This was especially apparent in the case of poisons, which often produced symptoms similar to those of certain illnesses and which, in very dilute dose, suggested themselves as remedies on the “like cures like” principle. Over a long period Hanemann and his followers took small doses of various reputedly poisonous substances, carefully noting the symptoms they produced. There were called “provings”. Subsequently, patients suffering from similar symptoms were treated with these substances. The results were usually encouraging and often remarkable.

Hahnemann then worked to establish the smallest effective dose for he realized that this was the best way to avoid side effects. In so doing, he also found that they more the remedy was diluted, the more effective it became. By close observation and careful experiment, he established the three principles of homeopath:

1. A medicine which in large doses produces the symptoms of a disease will in small doses cure that disease.

2. By extreme dilution, the medicine’s curative properties are enhanced, and all the poisonous or undesirable side effects are lost.

3. Homeopathic medicines are prescribed individually by the study of the whole person, according to basic temperament and responses.

Homeopathic medicines are:

  • Widely recognized as a safe and effective alternative to conventional medicine

  • In general use throughout the world

  • Prepared to impeccable modern standards of quality from pure, natural sources

  • Completely safe, even for babies and children

  • Pleasant, sweet tasting

  • Curative, often (although not always) after an initial period of Healing Crisis

Homeopathy for Children

It is in the treatment of infants and children that the efficacy and safety of a homeopathic medicine manifests itself most fully. With the correct medicine, the response is usually rapid and most effective. There is a mandatory warning on all medicines to keep them out of reach of children, which should always be observed. However, it is reassuring that even if a child is given an incorrect dosage, he or she will experience no harmful effects, nor any unwanted side effects during treatment. Homeopathic medicines not only act on a specific disease but on the overall personality of a person, hence it treats children who are very stubborn, irritable, cross, morose, cranky etc., and it also helps to build their resistance power.

 

Homeopathy for Women

During pregnancy when all other medicines are to be avoided, homeopathic remedies can still be given. It is particularly effective for morning sickness and also aids normal delivery without complications. Menstrual disorders, ovarian tumors, uterine fibroids, cysts and polyps, menopausal syndrome, disease of breast and lactation, irritability, depression, infertility, and other symptoms can all be effectively treated with homeopathy.

Homeopathy for the Family

Homeopathy should be the first method of treatment for the whole family because it is effective, harmless, free of side effects, and safer than conventional drugs. Hippocrates, the father of medicine wrote as advice to physicians, “first do no harm”. This implores all to consider safe healing methods first before resorting to potentially harmful drugs.
