Customer Reviews

an invaluable resource
I concur with the previous reviewer. I'm a chiropractor with some formal training in homeopathy and before purchasing this book I was pretty much at a loss as to how to integrate acute homeopathy into my practice. This book changed everything. I now have a pharmacy of over 100 remedies that I use on a regular basis. I now have a foundation onto which I can add knowledge gained from practical experience. But be forwarned: This book will help out a great deal with acute prescribing, but don't think that you will be able to tackle constitutional levels of healing without additional training and practice.

One of a kind homeopathic healing guide.

A Wonderful Resource
Here is a user-friendly guide to treating a wide range of health problems homeopathically. Besides arthritis, it is a book to go to for spine, knee, hip, foot or ankle problems, as well as headaches. Also presents alternatives for conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome. Extremely clear and well-organized, it offers the reader the benefit of a great deal of experience.
