One of my specialties in Oriental Medicine is the treatment of children and I found that homeopathy has a wealth of remedies for acute and mental/ behavioral issues, which are affecting a growing number of children. The great advantage of homeopathy is that it works almost instantaneously for acute situations such as high fever and it’s easy for the child to take the remedy, unlike herbal medicine. My Sho-Ni-Shin practice, a hands-on technique of working with children’s meridians and acupuncture without the use of needles, is very compatible with using homeopathic remedies and can significantly speed up the recovery of a child.

Homeopathy and midwifery are a natural combination. Sometimes during labor, a woman can become stuck or have difficulty to work through an emotional blockage. She may be having unusual pain that is hindering her progress. Homeopathy can initiate a shift for her, so that she can do the work of labor and give birth to a healthy baby naturally. Homeopathy is safe, gentle, effective, and can bring a positive outcome for mother and baby.

The schooling really prepared me for the national test with the CHC, especially the Advanced Clinical Studies. I tend to review and review for tests. The class material and home work assignments became my study materials for the test. The case writing honed my skills and the case supervision provided me with all the supervision hours I needed for national certification. I am so glad I took the HSI-Programs.

I have been a professional student my whole adult life, so I feel that I have a lot of experience with which to compare my tenure at HSI. The classes are focused, well organized and taught in a way to be intellectually rigorous and stimulating. The program makes the study of homeopathy come to life, providing an excellent foundation to become a good practitioner. I can sincerely say that the two years at HSI yielded one of the most fulfilling learning opportunities I’ve ever had.

I have a whole new set of powerful, yet gentle tools in my medicine bag.

As a registered nurse with 25 years of experience I have always been interested in finding a natural healing method that would treat the whole person and not only isolated symptoms. Homeopathy has given me a holistic and individualized healing approach to a degree that I never thought was possible.
