a body-mind approach to chronic illness
I’m Rodger Douglas and I treat fibromyalgia with homeopathy. I use a body mind approach that revolves around simple and healthy living.
gemmotherapy
expels toxins
A buildup of toxins in the body is one of the main causes of chronic illness. In my experience eliminating these toxins is the first step to recovery. There are two steps to doing this. First, lower your exposure to toxins, as far as possible, by removing them from your home. You can read more on how to do this on the decluttering and cleanse pages. Second, select a few gemmotherapy remedies to safely and effectively drain those toxins from your body.
Gemmotherapy remedies are made from young shoots and buds. They contain the peak life essence of the plants so they are richer in vitamins, minerals, nucleic acids, growth hormones and other plant tissues that are lost if a plant is allowed to reach a later stage in its growth cycle before harvesting.
The advantage of using gemmotherapy over other methods of drainage is that there are 50 remedies. Each one has a specific action and an affinity toward a specific organ. This allows you to target particular organs and problems. Gemmotherapy also supports digestive function by helping establish gut flora and stimulating digestive enzymes.
Fagus sylvatica (Beech) stimulates the immune system and stimulates the liver. It is used for a weak immune system, compromising gut function, food intolerance, and recurrent viral infections.
Quercus robur (Oak) is a general tonic that supports adrenal and reproductive hormone production. It supports the body when overworked and fatigued. Oak is also used when there is fatigue due to low cortisol levels.
Pinus sylvestris (Pine) cleanses the body through the lymph and liver. It drains joints and removes all heavy metals from the body. Pine regenerates the bone and cartilage.
