Winter Remedies for Winter Ills
This is the time of year when a well-chosen homeopathic remedy can make all the difference between feeling well and languishing under the weather. Colds, coughs, flu and other winter ailments can be safely and effectively treated with over the counter homeopathic remedies.
Homeopathic remedies have been successfully used to treat winter ills for at least two centuries. If the symptoms of the illness and the remedy are a good match you will start to feel better quickly.
Remedies you might like to consider:
Aconite: Take this as soon as you have the first signs of a cold. Aconite often works best where the symptoms have a sudden onset after exposure to cold, dry winds.
Bryonia: In contrast Bryonia symptoms come on slowly. Sufferers will feel off colour and have increasingly low energy; like a bear with a sore head!
Gelsemium: This is the most commonly used flu remedy. The patient feels weak and chilly with shivers running up and down their spine. There is often a dull headache. Stuffy bedrooms make all the symptoms worse.
I am happy to speak to you about homeopathic remedies if you would like to pop upstairs to Keston Natural Health Practice or you can phone me on 07941 320527.
