We’re back flying across the globe - hopefully with more carbon offsets and direct flights - but along with the wonders of air travel comes the struggle of jet lag - homeopathy can help. While traveling afar fuels the adventurous spirit, the body often lags in its enthusiasm - and sometimes a little extra help is needed to avoid symptoms. Here are some tips for jet lag prevention along w[...]
Homeopathy works with the body's natural ability to heal itself, so remedies often work quickly to resolve menstrual cramps unless there is an underlying issue, and then constitutional treatment is recommended to reduce symptoms over time alongside the symptomatic prescriptions.

A teenage girl loses her best friend to suicide and can’t eat or sleep. A young man experiences a humiliation during a break-up and develops debilitating headaches.
