About Begabati:

Homeopathy uses medicines made primarily from natural substances (mostly herbs, also minerals) which are diluted and energized to support your body's own healing energy. It has many advantages over conventional medicine. There are no side effects or adverse reactions; it stimulates and strengthens the body's healing energy, instead of weakening it and lowering the immune system. It is especially well-suited for people who are extremely sensitive (to medications, environmental toxins, etc.). It can address mental and emotional as well as physical symptoms. The remedies are inexpensive ($5 per week) and do not need to be taken for the rest of your life; typically they are no longer needed after 6 to 12 months.

Homeopathy works for a wide variety of conditions, whether physical or mental (such as learning disabilities in the young or loss of memory in the elderly), emotional (depression, anxiety, panic attacks), behavioral (addictive behaviors, ODD) or energetic (hyperactivity, chronic fatigue). It works especially well when there is a strong mind-body component (such as in stress-related conditions like ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease, or in women's issues like PMS and menopause). It also works well for any condition when there is a clear "Never Well Since", in other words when the you can say "I've never really felt the same since my mother died [or my husband left me, my business partner betrayed me, etc]."

However, it can work well in many conditions when these factors are not a part of the picture. And many times the homeopathic process helps people discover such connections between their emotions, their life-traumas, and their symptoms.

Most people who come to see me are looking for a safe and effective alternative to Western medicine -- because their doctor can't find what's wrong with them . . . or there is no medicine for their condition . . . or they can't handle or don't want the side effects. Most people not only experience improvement in their health condition as their body's own natural healing energy becomes stronger -- they also experience improvement in their energy, sleep, and emotional state. They get side benefits, not side effects. This is what we mean by homeopathy supporting the whole person.
