Homeopathic Treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome:
By Cara Lan, N.D.
Homeopathy is a centuries old form of medicine that under-utilized in our current health care system. It is gentle and effective for many complaints and illnesses and can be highly beneficial for those suffering with chronic and mental illness.
After starting homeopathic treatment, many patients find symptoms that used to trouble them on a daily or weekly basis have “fallen away”. At the first follow up when asking patients about their list of symptoms, it is common to hear the reply, “I completely forgot about that symptom, it’s no longer present”.
The effect that homeopathic medicine has on the body is not due to a suppression of the illness or disease but rather a strengthening of the person’s own ‘Vital Force’ (the energetic principal that animates a living being; called “chi” in Chinese Medicine and “prana” in Ayruvedic Medicine). This is the animating principal, the energy that allows the body to heal and repair itself.
In modern science, homeopathic medicine is currently being studied for the nanoparticles that are created in remedy preparation and for the different types of effects, these particles can have on the body and its ability to heal[1].
Many people suffering with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome find that where other therapies were ineffective in treating their symptoms, homeopathic treatment allowed healing to happen on a much deeper level, not only regaining their energy, vitality and mental health, but also receiving the added bonus of complete resolution of less severe and less concerning symptoms as well.
