Homeopathy

Dr. Newlon has been practicing classical Homeopathy since l987.

She has had the privilege to have studied with some of the world’s leading Homeopaths: Roger Morrison M.D., Bill Gray M.D., Nancy Herrick P.A., Paul Herscu N.D., Sheliagh Creasy RSM, England, Vassilis Ghegas M.D., Jeremy Sherr and Johnathan Shore M.D.

Dr. Newlon completed the first course ever given at the Hahnemann School of Homeopathy, then in Berkeley, California. She completed a one year course of study with the New England School of Homeopathy under the direction of Paul Herscu N.D. , and a two year course of study under Sheliagh Creasy, RSM England.

Homeopathy is a wonderful and powerful adjunct medical system to the Osteopathic work. I find it deepens a healing process that Osteopathy starts.

WHAT IS HOMEOPATHY?

It builds upon the intimate and powerful mind-body connection. It’s application can provide relief from both physical and mental/emotional disturbances.

Homeopathic remedies are selected expressly for the individual, based on his/her very particular symptoms.

Homeopathic remedies mimic disease patterns, including mental and emotional disequilibrium patterns, by the process called "like cures like." There is a vast body of knowledge about Homeopathy on the internet that people can access for more in depth understanding.

HOW DOES HOMEOPATHY WORK?

Homeopathy is based on the the ‘Law of Similars”, which is an ancient healing principle discovered in Hippocrates time. Simply put, a substance capable of producing certain symptoms when given in to a healthy person will cure those same symptoms in the ill person. For example, Ipecac, used in emergency rooms to induce vomiting, when prepared in micro-dosage using Homeopathic methods will cure intractable vomiting.

WHAT CAN HOMEOPATHY TREAT?

Homeopathy is effective in a wide range of complaints from acute, like ear infections or flus, to chronic conditions like arthritis or depression.

HOMEOPATHIC REMEDIES ARE SAFE

Homeopathic remedies are made from naturally occurring substances on the Earth. Some are animal by-products, plant, mineral, salts or heavy metals. Homeopathic remedies are highly diluted, non-toxic, made by homeopathic pharmacies in accordance with the U.S. Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia and approved by the FDA. Homeopathic remedies are tasteless, odorless and taken orally.

STRUCTURE OF TREATMENT

An initial visit

Homeopathic intake will take one hour to one one hour-thirty minutes. A thorough understanding of your complaints and how you experience them is the basis of successful treatment.

Although you may have just one or two prominent complaints, you will be assessed on a wide range of interrelated factors such as life-style, stress, and diet, how weather affects you etc. All of these factors help me to identify a correct homeopathic remedy.

Follow-up visits are scheduled in 4-6 week intervals and assessment is done on how the remedy helped. Acute conditions heal rapidly. Chronic conditions can take up to two years, but initial effects that are beneficial will be seen immediately, likely increase in energy.
