Tissue Salts

[Priscilla Tan]

Gail, thank you for your reply.

To give a better picture of my situation, I am from Singapore, a place where there is little awareness of homeopathy. Most people have never heard of homeopathy in my country. I got to know about it because I was researching help for my son. As I got to read some books about it, I began to be facinated by it's healing potential.

My first encounter with 'homeopathy' was with a biochemist last January. He was popular among the special need children community because he was using facial diagnosis to determine what is deficient in these children and prescribed tissue salts to them. After my son has become his client, I shared about my knee joint problem and after initial diagnosis, he prescribed me with Comb. T. I took it for a few months, the condition somewhat improved but didn't go away.
Until June last yr, I came to know about homeopathy through reading of books and internet, so i started looking around for homeopath to treat my knee (and other conditions). Even for a non povety stricken country like Singapore, it's difficult to find a good homeopath. I have consulted homeopaths who advised taking of paracetamal for fever, advised me to bring my son to ENT for a diagnosis before she could treat him, who told me nothing much can be done for my knee because it's part of 'wear and tear' as one ages and asked me to take glucosamine etc.......all these advices formed a very different picture from what I had read from books and makes homeopathy very limited.
These have led me to ask some of my previous questions on this board and of course, the answers fr. some of you confirm my doubt about these homeopaths' competency.

I am still in search of a good homeopath. I got 2 contacts fr. this list and maybe I will contact them.

Nevertheless, this group been a wonderful place for me to learn more about homeopathy and to understand it's true potential.

Hi Priscilla

The problem with the title "Homeopath" is that it has been hijacked by
anyone and everyone using any modality, a subject that has been
discussed many times on this list in the past. Sheri has a list of
questions that she tells prospective clients to ask homeopaths in order
to judge their ability - hopefully she will post it again - it would be
good to add to the files section if it isn't already there.

Hi Shannon

Not having a remedy to hand, so going with a tissue salt, is very
different to someone using tissue salts while under the treatment of a
homeopath. If I was a homeopath, treating a client, I would be very
upset to discover that the client had been told to use tissue salts
along side my advised treatment, especially when that advice came from
an internet list and was given by people who didn't know the full case.

The accepted wisdom is that you can't overdose on the tissue
salts. It's my experience that you can.

Yep, I agree! When under active treatment by a homeopath it's so important not to make additions or changes without their knowledge and agreement./

[Shannon Nelson]

What happened? Would you say it was similar or dissimilar agg?

[Laurence]

When taking the combination 12, the ones I didn't need
seemed to be swamping the ones I needed.
By taking them individuallyand experimenting I could
verify with some certainty that the ones I didn't need
worsened my condition.

Maybe that is what happened to me as I have never had a problem when taking them individually or even in the common combos we get here.
