Hi all,
I am beginning to feel the pain on my left knee joint, upon consulting a biochemist, he prescribed with Tissue Salt - Comb T. (He claims that all illnesses happened due to deficiency in tissue salts)
May I know if tissue salt alone is good enough? Or do I need to take homepathy remedy?

Tissue Salts
Re: Tissue Salts
Hi Priscilla,
Tissues Salts are an awesome way to handle symptoms - symptoms usually
are the result of a deficiency or disruption to the balance of the
tissue salts. But you need to go a step further back and ask why is
there a deficiency or disruption.
For a long time Hahnemann worked successfully prescribing for symptom
cure (which is what tissue salts do) but after a while he realised that
over time patients kept coming back, gradually getting chronically
sicker. With this realisation came his development of theories about
Miasms. Miasms explain why people are susceptible to illness, for
example why one person consistantly needs Ferrum Phos and Kali Mur,
compared to another consistently needing Calc Fluor and Silica. Just
using tissue salts will address symptoms and keep people symptom free
but won't usually help with genetic susceptibilities. Homoeopathic
remedies prescribed by a practitioner who understands Miasms will
address the underlying susceptibility and mean that a person is less
likely to need tissue salts in the first place.

Re: Tissue Salts
thanks Gail for your reply.
Do you think it's a good idea to give Bioplasma (12 tissue salts) like a multivitamin kind of supplement since we may not always possible to get all the necessary nutrients fr. our diet.

Re: Tissue Salts
I tried those once as an experiment but never again!! All sorts of things returned which I had got rid of and I didn't feel right. My experiment lasted 3 days!!

Re: Tissue Salts
OTOH for me Bioplasma been really helpful during several periods. (Lacking a deeply suited remedy, and needing support.) I see it as more similar to taking vitamins, not so deeply curative, at least not in the way of "regular" homeopathy.
For an acute or injury, cell salts may be sufficient, but for chronic stuff not so much, at least I wouldn't think so. Priscilla--I would say just give it a try. I also think it could be very worthwhile to get a more detailed book on cell salts and learn to use them individually (and in targeted combination). A couple of years ago I started experimenting with them, having not much optimism, but was actually pretty impressed with their ability to give me good, solid help, when I did not have the more homeopathically suited remedy available.
One drawback I found, is that after being accustomed to the infrequent and quickly effective dosing of homeopathic remedies, it was awfully hard to remember (or "resign myself") to take the cell salts so often--4 times daily or more. I used them in water, 2 tablets in a little jar, dissolve, stir, and a sip for a dose. I found that to work *at least* as well as dry doses, and be MUCH more convenient (didn't like having a mouthful of sugar pills four times a day), not to mention cheaper. (They're cheap in any case, tho.)
It's not "real homeopathy", but it can be useful!
Sometime back David Little made some wonderful posts about cell salts. I've found one in my files, and will send it in a separate post.
Best wishes,
Shannon

Re: Tissue Salts
Hi Shannon
Not Sheri answering, but thought that I would chip in. When I asked
David about the tissue salts he said that we still treated on symptom
picture and therefore individualised treatment. Also, the tissue
salts were given because they weren't able to provide homeopathic care
to everyone - Priscilla is under homeopathic care and should therefore
be speaking to her homeopath. I think that we have to differentiate
between people in countries where they are able to get good care, and
people in poverty stricken areas whose options are limited or
practically none existent.

Re: Tissue Salts
Thanks Kerry, I have no disagreement.
I would only add that there are many places and situations where quality homeopathic care is not readily available, not only "people in poverty stricken areas." As I think I noted, I was using them myself, on myself, simply because I did not have a wide range of remedies available, and thought I would see just how much I *could* accomplish with those 12--and was pleasantly surprised. It was actually David's post expressing that similar (tho much more detailed) type of experience that led me to (finally, years later) make the experiment.

Re: Tissue Salts
Hi Priscilla,
Sometimes that (the bioplasma like a vitamin) can be helpful and sometimes it isn't - it's quite individual. I was also thinking - did you mention your knee pain to your homoeopath?
Combination T is, I think, a mix of Ferrum Phos and Kali Mur - usually used for first stage of illness or injury, so I'm not 100% sure what picture the biochemist had of your symptoms when he prescribed, I guess you talked about more than just knee pain with him?
It can be counterproductive to mix recommendations from different practitioners - either go with the biochemist for all your symptoms or go with the homoeopath for all your symptoms. The timing of symptoms is an important part of homoeopathic treatment - if you take tissue salts (or herbs) to clear up a symptom which started after you took a homoeopathic remedy it can interfere with the way the remedy works.
Maybe mention to your homoeopath how insecure you feel about just relying on one type of treatment, and that you ask for help and advice from a few different sources, be honest about who you are and what symptoms you have and what symptoms you had that you've cleared up using vitamins, minerals, herbs etc - this can help the homoeopath to know and understand your personality better, and may result in a more precise prescription (if it is needed) to follow the Nat Mur.
