Dear Irene, I also agree with you that the multiple choice format of the actual exam is not a particularly accurate way to test anybody's true clinical skills. I don't know what might work better and yet be feasible -- your suggestion was certainly creative and innovative. :-) The people running the...

One thing strikes me about this suggestion : I have a feeling it would be really difficult to match the strange complexity that real remedies have – they have a genuine, deep coherence underlying a surface chaos. It would be a bit like writing and deciphering computer code if they were to fabricate ...

A significant number of supervised cases, as well as a year or two of full-time practice, and presentation of ten of one’s own successful cured cases are also part of the CHC exam requirements and contents. This wasn’t noted in the previous discussions. Rosemary “The quieter you become, the more you...

Hi, Rochelle. Yes, I was also thinking of Calc-p tissue salt as something that would make sense in this situation.

The effect of Fosamax is to stop the growth and activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, the cells that produce new bone and break down the old. For the first year, the effect is an overall strengthening of bones because the laying down of new growth stops more slowly than the breakdown of older tis...
