Growing numbers
of women are making it abundantly clear that there is a life after
menopause. Tired of the often dangerous or uncomfortable side effects of
conventional hormone replacement therapy, women are seeking safer, more
holistic ways of approaching the physical and emotional symptoms of
menopause. Homeopathy is especially appropriate for treating a wide
range of specific problems related to this transitional life period
because the remedies are highly potent and completely free of the toxic
side effects associated with drugs. In addition, the whole person is
treated - not just isolated symptoms - and emotional issues are given as
much weight as physical ones.
Accepting
menopause as a natural and essential positive stage in a woman's life,
author Beth MacEoin clearly explains the basics of homeopathy for
beginners, outlining step-by-step the process of considering the overall
symptom picture and selecting the proper remedy and dosage. She shows
you how to treat common discomforts that may arise before, during, or
after menopause, including menstrual irregularities, hot flashes, night
sweats, depression, low self-esteem, weight gain, sleep disturbances,
and aching joints. Taking a broad perspective on promoting good health
and general well-being, the author also covers ways to guard against
osteoporosis and suggests other self-help measures that will support
homeopathic treatment.
Beth MacEoin is the author of several books, including Homeopathy, Homeopathy for Babies and Children, and Health by Nature. A practicing homeopath, she lives in England.
