Definitions of Common Homeopathic Terms
Short-term illness with temporary symptoms are termed ACUTE in Homeopathy.
ACUTE illnesses respond well to Homeopathy. With ACUTE illness we often
use low potencies that can be repeated safely. We also want a product easily labeled and
made for well rounded health support. Combination Formulas have clear labeling for Acute treatment.

HOMEOPATHY - a safe and natural method to repel imbalance out of the body &
allow the body to heal. Homeopathy stimulates the body's ability to heal with
very small amounts of natural substances.
The wonder of homeopathic medicine is in its safety, the incredibly small amount
of medicine needed, and the rapidity of healing.
Homeopathy is from 2 Greek words, homoios: meaning similar and
pathos: meaning suffering. Homeopathy therefore means similar cures similar
or like cures like. The word Homeopathy was first coined by Samuel Hahnemann,
the founder of modern homeopathy.

1000 parts dilution. Designated with a M after the remedy name.

health concerns. 30C is a very common potency and found very effective.
The medium C potencies are the highest potency sold over-the-counter in
health stores. M potencies are a high potency. Your practitioner may recommend
you special order a M potency from a pharmacy such as ELIXIRS.COM
for stubborn health problems or constitutional treatment. The high potencies
may stay working in the body for up to a year, so the remedy is chosen carefully and dosing is infrequent.
SIMILLIMUM - the remedy that most closely matches to a person's set of unique symptoms.
Describe Potency, Difference in Potencies, How to Choose Potency
Potency is the Strength of a homeopathic remedy. Homeopathy makes substances
into healing remedies by diluting and succussion (shaking).
Diluting negates any problems with subtances that may be harmful in their raw state.
Succussion enhances the healing properties of substances.
The Potency strength is shown after the remedy name as a Roman Numeral
along with a number that indicates the repetitions of dilutions and succussing.
Decimal designation is X.
Centesimal designation is C.
Millesimal designation is M.
Choosing a potency
Lower potencies X stay in the body a short period of time and can be used
safely for repeat dosing. Helpful for first aid treatment, trauma, recovery from
injury and for preventative dosing. Dosing with X potencies may include frequent
dosing, such as several times a day for a few days for faster healing.
Suggested dose for seasonal illness is 3 tablets 3 times a day or as needed.
See Dosing Guidelines for more dosing information, includes information
on how to change dose and on gradually decreasing as improvement is made.
X potencies are used in treating sudden illness and general family and
first aid treatment. Common X potencies include:
6X for Cell Salts, 30X for seasonal illness, first aid treatment.
X potencies are in tablet from that instantly dissolve in the mouth and
are an ideal form for infants and young children.
30X Kids Kit and 30X Remedy Chest
Medium potencies C are used for first aid, seasonal ailments and chronic
health concerns. 30C is a very common potency in the U.S. and I have
found this potency very effective over the many years work with clients.
See our extensive list of 30C Single Remedies 2 dram and 1 oz in pellets form.
General dose is 3 pellets 3 times a day and less frequently as improvement is made.
200C is in the high range of the C potencies. Used for stubborn problems.

High potencies M. Your practitioner may recommend you special order a
M potency from a pharmacy such as ELIXIRS.COM
for health problems
or constitutional treatment. Very high potencies may stay working in the
body for months, so the remedy is chosen carefully.
Contact Us with questions on ordering remedies Mother Tinctures, Low, Medium, High Potencies or LM potencies.
Cell Salts, Sarcodes, and Nosodes are terms used to classify remedies into categories.
Knowing the category your remedy is in can help with potency selection also!
Why do I use 6X for Cell Salts and 6C for Thyroid and other glandular support?
See my new page on Homeopathic Categories: Guide to Easier Remedy Selection.
Do you hear elsewhere confusing comments like 6X is stronger than 30C,
only to see on ELIXIRS.COM that 6X is a lower potency than 30C?
6X has more of the original substance, but is NOT stronger.
For example, Calc Phos 6X has more Calc Phos substance than 30C.
In homeopathy due to dilution and succussion, 6X is a lower potency than 30C.
Stronger in homeopathy should refer to potency selection, not the measurement of material.
One potency is not better than another potency.
Homeopathic Categories will help you also understand potency selection better!
Here is a quick overview:
In Cell Salts, 6X (12X if using liquid) is used to enhance absorption of nutrients.
In single remedies, 30C and 200C is most often used to push away a blockage and reduce a symptom.
In organ therapy, 6C is used to balance and regulate organ and glandular function.

In organ therapy, 6C is used to balance and regulate organ and glandular function.
Organotherapy, the use of Sarcodes works on the premise that:
1. A homeopathic gland acts upon its corresponding gland.
2. Low Potencies such as 6X or 12X stimulate its corresponding gland function and is used for a low/hypothyroid symptoms.
3. Medium potency 6C balances, supports and regulates corresponding gland or organ function.
4. Medium high potencies such as 30C or 200C help with over functioning of the gland or organ.
DECIMAL - potency based on the ratio of 1 part substance to 10 parts dilution.
Designated with a X (in Europe designated with a D) after the remedy name.

What is a Modality and How Does it Help Me Decide on a Remedy?
Modalities are factors that make the person feel better or worse.
A modality can be a situation or condition.
Reaction to temperature, eating, drinking, and surrounding environment are
found again and again in provings.
If you have a strong reaction for or against a particular modality,
it becomes a useful tool in choosing the correct remedy.
Using modalities that fit the person as a whole are very helpful when determining constitutional remedies.
A modality can be used as a general condition that fits the entire person.
For example, a Nux Vomica person will say, "I feel better in a warm room".
A modality can also be applied to just one area of the body.
For example, a Silicea person with a headache, may say, ""MY headaches feels better with MY head wrapped up".
Modalities can be mixed and different for Generals and Specifics.
For instance, an Arsenicum Album person may say, "I feel better in warm temperature,
but MY headache feels better with a cool compress ".
General modalities can make the job of finding a remedy much faster.
This is because we eliminate remedies that do not match basic tendencies.
We then only consider remedies that match important General modalities.
For example, those who feel decidely worse in cold weather will respond best, among others,
to Arsenicum Album, Calcarea Carb, Graphites, Nux Vomica, Phosphorus, Rhus tox, or Sepia.
Modalities are helpful when deciding between 2 similar remedies.
For example, arthritis in the shoulder.
Using the modality- better or worse from motion- can help with the decision between:
Bryonia -worse from motion and
Rhus tox -better from gentle motion, worse after inactivity, such as sitting, resting.
To feel better with a modality is named ameliorated,
abbreviated amel in repertories and materia medicas or with the symbol <
To feel worse with a modality is named aggravation,
abbreviated agg in repertories and materia medicas or with the symbol >
Some common modalities used in deciding remedies are:
Temperature - agg or amel in hot, or cold temperature.
Weather - agg or amel in a certain season or type of weather, cold, wet, humid, stormy, dry, windy, or a combination.
Motion and Position- agg or amel with activity, or inactivity. Worse sitting, lying down.
Time of day or night - agg or amel during a particular hour(s), after sleep, in the morning, noon, after midnight….
Food - agg or amel during or after a meal, drinking fluids, drinking hot or cold liquids.
Application - agg or amel with cold applications, warm applications, massage, heavy pressure, light touch.

Can I Use Homeopathic
Products If I Am Currently Taking Prescription
Drugs? Does homeopathy interact with other therapies or
supplements?
Homeopathy can be safely taken with over-the-counter drugs or prescription medications. People using other therapies can also use homeopathy. Conventional medicines when combined with other medicines cause side effects and serious to life threatening results. Homeopathy works in a different way and does not interfer with other therapies, drugs, herbs, vitamins or supplements. Homeopathy is safe to use in conjunction with other medications or with other homeopathic remedies.
Homeopathy is without side effects.
Remedy Label- Why Does Remedy Label List One Condition, But I Am Told that I Need the Remedy for a Different Condition.
Labels on Remedies are not complete and may not list your illness or symptom even though your health professional has recommended that remedy and you have read information online or in a book about the remedy.
FDA requires over-the-counter Homeopathic products to include an indication on the bottle. That is, the label will list one or two specific symptoms.
This labeling is nice to have when purchasing homeopathic remedies without any guidance. With some of the keynote symptoms on the bottle- help is right on the bottle. You can easily match your problems and symptoms up with the proper remedy.
But sometimes, this labeling is troublesome. The label cannot list pages of indications and symptoms. There just isn't space on the bottle.
This can be disconcerting if you were told to take a remedy for a headache, but the remedy label indicates it is for diarrhea!
For example, I may give you Graphites for scars, or for a headache, or for depression, or as a constitutional remedy, or for an acute first aid problem, but the remedy's label will always say, "cracked skin".
Is Graphites then only for one indication? NO! Does that mean in homeopathy that each remedy is for only one thing? NO!
Are there many symptoms that homeopathic remedies can help balance. YES!.
Each remedy may have various combinations of symptoms. has numerous possibilities to match to your symptoms and a particular person.
I also hear the question worded, "A Health Professional told me to take this remedy for my problem, but what I
read online, or in a book, or on the bottle sounds different".
Homeopathy is not a simplistic science. There is not just one match for a sore throat. Neither is there just one use per remedy! Wow, would our lives be more simple if every remedy was only for one health complaint. Or that everyone with the same constitutional type were the same in behavior and health problems. Our lives would definitely be more simple if all descriptions of a remedy in all books, online, or from Health Professionals were exactly the same!
In reality, each book, or Health Professional, or online description, captures the flavor and emphasis that the author wishes to impart.
Why are remedy descriptions not the same? Some reasons are:
a. The author has personal experiences/ successes that offer additional information.
b. Authors use different resource material. Materia medicas themselves differ.
Information from Provings may be condensed or written in modern terminology.
c. The author also uses their own expertise to interpret source material, interpret
Provings, and interpret underlying themes that represent a remedy's "picture".
d. Emphasis may be according to the theme of the book or article.
If you look further at descriptions that don't seem to validate one another,
you would see that what you are really looking at is-
-a more complete picture of the remedy
-a different side of the remedy
-a different way of describing the type of symptoms that match the remedy
-one description is slanted for using the remedy in first aid situations,
the other description is slanted for using the remedy for constitutional use, etc.
It is not easy to look past our own description of our illness, to seeing keynotes or underlying themes in remedies. Some people may dismiss taking a remedy given by their Health Professional only because one book description doesn't list their illness. Many Homeopaths feel it takes a lifetime of study to grasp all the symptoms covered by a remedy and to know what rubrics to look under to find the correct remedy.
A rubric is the symptom heading and short symptom description in Repertories. You must first know what rubric to even look under. Most of us describe our symptoms in ways that are not identical to the way
symptoms were described during the remedy's Proving. Then realize that the rubric will offer only possible remedy matches. Rubrics and possible matches also vary from book to book. Possible matches may vary from 1 to 100 choices. As you study homeopathy, you realize the art and science of finding a good remedy match and why there is not one pat remedy per symptom, or just one way to describe a remedy. You also realize the value of Homeopathy and the depth of its healing ability!
If your health professional recommended the remedy, direct your questions to them to find out how the remedy was chosen specifically for you.

How Long Does It Take To See Results?
Can I Repeat the Remedy If the Symptoms Return?
In certain cases such as, Acute cases, only taking a remedy once or
twice will remove the imbalance;
Injuries, temporary illness may need frequent doses, as often as every
1/2 hour, but after a day no more treatment is needed.
Remedies often need to be taken longer in chronic
conditions.
Remedies often need to be taken longer because we
still have the stressor in our lives that caused the
imbalance.
Remedies need to be repeated if there is food, or
actions in our lives that are counter to the action
of the remedy.
Remedies taken in lower potencies stay in our systems
for short periods of time and may need repeating.
Acute illnesses may need frequent doses until
complete healing is obtained.
Homeopathic Remedies do not have the unnatural side
effects of other medicines.
Homeopathic Remedies are safe and natural. They do
not become less effective taken over time or build
up in the system.
Homeopathics remove imbalances from the body, and
allows the body to heal itself.
Homeopathics are part of our daily lives as we treat acute illness, first aid, chronic conditions and use Cell Salts for basic health.
Lower potency remedies are especially safe for
repeat use.
Here is further indepth information on, "How long does it take for the remedy to work?"
First study the principles of Homeopathy, such as
the Law of Similars,
Law of Provings,
along with Hering's Laws of the direction of cure, to understand how homeopathy works.
Homeopathic remedies differ from taking prescription drugs,
herbs, supplements, and drugstore over the counter medicine.
Homeopathy is not harsh to the system, doesn't cause a healing crisis, and
doesn't work by suppression or covering up symptoms,
In Homeopathy we are dealing with finding the remedy that allows the body to heal itself,
so there are no absolutes in how long a remedy will take,
or if we will need to take the remedy more than once,
or if another remedy will be needed.
I use homeopathy in sudden illness and first aid situations and usually get immediate relief.
Even in chronic cases, we all know of those who enjoy instant turn around in their health,
due to finding and taking the Simillimum and not having blocks for the remedy to act.
The question of how long it takes for a remedy to work
is actually a deep question about the complex issue of all the factors involved in
Your Own Health or Dis-ease.
Factors such as,
What stress brought on the disease?
Are the same stresses still a constant in your life?
What stages of the illness have you gone through?
Is this a chronic condition?
How long have you been out of balance?
What role does heredity play in your health weaknesses?
What condition of health are you in generally?
Is your lymphatic system and glands on overload?
How sensitive are you to environmental pollutants?
What complex issues are part of your dis-ease?
Such as, do you suffer from food allergies,
Do you have many additional health complaints,
Is your immune system efficient or is it always on high or low?
Are you suffering from a chronic low-grade infection?
Have you addressed the emotional factors that relate to your physical complaints?
Are you altering your diet to best conform to your system, your health problems,
your homeopathic remedy?
Are you nurturing yourself?
Are you obtaining the optimum amount of sleep for your system?
Do you alternate your mental and physical demands to keep a
balance in your mental and physical well being?
For more information see Kathryn's newsletter
entitled Am I Using the Correct Remedy?
Is Homeopathy an alternative to swallowing pills?
Yes, homeopathy is an excellent alternative to those who can't swallow large pills or have digestive
problems. Most homeopathic remedies are in small tablets that instantly dissolve in your mouth. Through the saliva, they are absorbed,
bypassing the need for further digestion. Homeopathic remedies usually have no taste, or if there is a taste, it is mild and sweet. Combination products are larger tablets without any taste that are chewed and also are absorbed quickly. Homeopathy is a wonderful solution for those with sensitive digestive systems. Children also love homeopathics, with no large capsules to swallow or bad tasting liquids. Homeopathic remedies canalso be purchased as liquids or dissolved in water.

Some Health Professionals feel herbal or homeopathics are useful in preparation of labor. Remedies can be taken 4-6 weeks prior to due date. Red raspberry tea is an excellent uterine toner. Homeopathic remedies that can be considered last 4-6 weeks:
Caulophyllum
Cimicifuga racemosa
Arnica montana
Pulsatilla nigricans
Gelsemium sempervirens
An interesting double-blind study was done in 1987
"Preparation for Birth by Homeopathy:Experimentation"
Dorfman, Lassure, Tetau, April 1987.
90 women were tested-taking the remedies: Caulophyllum; Arnica; Pulsatilla; Gelsemium; Cimicifuga.
Taken in the last month, the women experienced 40%
less time in labor.
Specific symptoms as always need individual study for choosing the Simillimum.
It is important to assess the mother-to-be to find specific symptoms and individualize the case. A Homeopathic emergency kit can then be put together to be available as needed during labor and after delivery.
If you are having trouble getting pregnant homeopathy can help with a specific remedy for your symptoms.
Supplements such as folic acid and DHA are important to prevent birth defects. I encourage the use of DHA. DHA is an important source of essential fatty acids for mother-to-be and essential for proper brain development of the fetus.

the remedy RHUS TOX.
Rhus tox is often the remedy in Backache, Body aches during flu, Lumbago, Rheumatism, Sprains.
Whether the pain is from an old injury or not, consider Rhus tox. Lifting heavy loads that cause bruised and sprained pains. Overlifting, with the sudden "crick" in the back, with pain worse with raising arms above the head.
KEYNOTES:
STIFFNESS
WORSE-- in the morning, yearly and weather change aggravation, cold and damp weather, overexertion.
BETTER-- with movement, as the muscles start to warm up as one walks and does gentle exercises, warm, dry weather, rubbing the painful areas, change of position.
Rhus tox people are restless since change of position improves their pain.

I Would Like Natural Help To Regulate Blood Pressure
You can support the circulatory system with homeopathy.
Cell salts can be used to strengthen the system. Cells Salts are minerals used within the cells. Cell Salts are often a person's first step in finding out about homeopathy and using homeopathic remedies. You can take Cell Salts along with other homeopathics.
Blood pressure regulation is dependant on mineral tissue salts. Of
particular importance is Magnesium Phosphate, Potassium Phosphate, & Natrum Mur. Common names are the minerals magnesium, potassium, and sodium. The balance of these minerals within the cells is crucial to health.

Hypertension always has a connection with the emotions.
See our Stress Category
ANXIETY homeopathic formula is excellent.
Blessed is the optimist who snaps back from set backs, lets verbal slurs
slide off and stays on an even keel.
Too often though life is more demanding of us, or our loved ones, than our
resources allow. We don't get a chance to nuture ourselves, to allow our
autonomous balancing mechanisms to work.
Enters STRESS.
What happens when you get stressed?
Keep a stiff upper lip; feel anxiety; get angry (at yourself, or at others);
ignore it (what's stress?); stuff feeling inside; feel all emotions on edge;
feel close to tears; feel misunderstood (especially if you don't get
sympathy); unpredictable mood; changing moods; stay irritable; need to be
alone? These reactions are important in homeopathy to find the remedy that correctly matches your unique set of characteristics.
Stress causes 1st emotional imbalance. If left unbalanced, the emotional
layer deepens into the physical layer, such as high blood pressure.
I believe imbalances show up emotionally before they manifest physically. If
this is true, then homeopathy is truly a medical breakthrough! For
homeopathy can address the emotional factors; as well as treat the physical symptoms.
