Homoeopathy is undoubtedly a valid approach to allergic pathology because it allows the allergic subject to be treated with remedies that do not cause the annoying side effects of allopathic drugs.
The purpose of this homeopathic treatment Parsippany is to rehabilitate the patient to a perfect state of health, reaching the critical balance between body, mind and spirit that can restore his energy. Unlike traditional medicine, which suppresses the symptom in a generalized way, homoeopathy does not seek out a single external sign. Still, it considers the human being in his totality as a tripartite system: intellectual mind, emotions, body. In fact, according to Jung’s synchronicity, a symptom that is present in the body must be simultaneously present also on a mental and emotional level (for this reason, it is a holistic medicine).
Homoeopathic remedies are composed of substances mainly drawn from three kingdoms: vegetable, animal and mineral. Homoeopathy is a valid alternative to taking traditional medicines. Homeopathic treatment Parsippany has several advantages: it allows you to treat the disease gently, fast, and effectively without incurring side effects. For this reason, homoeopathic treatments are indicated for all individuals, especially children and pregnant women and animals.
Causes and symptoms of allergy
Allergy is an immune system disorder characterized by overreacting to substances commonly called allergens. These substances can be of food origin, but more often, they are breathed into the environment, as is the case with pollen, dust mites, or certain animals’ hair.
Some allergies are sometimes severe due to the intensity of their reactions, resulting from insect bites such as bees or wasps. In all cases, the allergy is caused by an immune-mediated mechanism involving antibodies of the IgE class and some cells containing the chemical mediator of allergic reactions – namely histamine – called mast cells. These reactions are often the consequence of a particular inheritance of the allergic subject, which often shows a certain hyperreactivity, mainly cutaneous, since the neonatal or childhood age (atopic dermatitis).
Allergic manifestations vary from forms of urticaria, more or less transitory, to annoying rhinitis and conjunctivitis, frequent especially in spring and summer or even more critical asthma crises, limiting the quality of life of many individuals due to the respiratory problems they cause.
Homoeopathic remedies for allergy
Traditional medicine treats allergies essentially by trying to remove the person from the substance that triggers them and at the same time administering drugs, primarily symptomatic, which aim to attenuate the symptoms, such as antihistamines and cortisone.
In a few selected cases, desensitizing therapy may be helpful, which uses, in small doses, the substance to which one is allergic, in a sort of therapeutic procedure that closely resembles the use of vaccines to prevent some acute infectious diseases.
In the latter case, therefore, the disorder is framed in a broader range of symptoms and benefits from so-called constitutional treatments since allergic diseases often manifest themselves from childhood and adolescence, precisely as an expression of particular and exaggerated the reactivity of the organism still, however, concerning its physical conformation or anatomical constitution. In any case, in the acute and transitory forms, among the most frequently used remedies are:
- Apis: in case of manifestations of skin redness associated with intense itching, which is improved by cold applications, precisely the opposite of Urtica Urens in which the symptoms of local redness and itching are aggravated by contact with cold baths and applications;
- Allium Cepa: in allergic forms that involve the upper respiratory tract and eyes, where, however, an abundant and excoriating secretion prevails at the edges of the nose and an equally plentiful but non-irritating lacrimation, all worsened in the evening and closed environments;
- Euphrasia: when ocular phenomena are prevalent, however, is associated with irritating tearing, this time, and intense photophobia.
Finally, here are three remedies for asthma attacks:
- Ipeca: characterized by spasmodic cough associated with nausea and vomiting;
- Arsenicum album: which typically presents crises between 1 and 3 am, related to intense agitation?
- Kali Carbonicum: The crises occur, instead, between 2 and 4 am and improve by expelling thick and greyish secretions with a spherical shape.
Conclusion: Homeopathy acts both in acute, through a series of remedies that
are chosen for peculiar characteristics that differentiate subjects suffering from the same disorders, and as a preventive treatment that comes to consider and treat hyperactivity, to substances often only weakly irritating, as being part of a more complex picture in which it is usually found also on a general and above all character level.
