Constitutional Homeopathy: The Most Radical Medicine in Our Holistic Armamentarium

by Louisa L. Williams, ND

Three Types of Homeopathy Commonly Used in Holistic Practices:

Complex or combination homeopathy is the use of a remedy that combines several remedies together in one bottle. For example, five to ten homeopathic remedies that help heal the bladder can be combined in one bottle and used in the treatment of urinary tract infections (UTI’s) or chronic interstitial cystitis (IC). Another example is the popular “Traumeel” in which the company Heel combined thirteen homeopathic remedies that help reduce trauma caused by accidents and sports injuries. Other companies that make complex homeopathic remedies include Pekana, Unda and Marco Pharma, and other brands are available at many health food stores. Although these remedies employ a bit of a shotgun approach, they are often very helpful to healing—especially in acute situations.

Acute homeopathic treatment is the treatment of acute injuries and disease, that is, injuries and disease that come on rapidly, suddenly, and intensely. Most holistically oriented individuals are familiar with the well-known Arnica montana remedy that is so important in healing acute injuries, as well as heart attacks and strokes, through its significant action in reducing bruising and restoring normal blood flow. Young mothers often become skillful in acute homeopathic prescribing after observing the miracle of dosing Belladonna to bring their child’s fever down, or observing how effective homeopathic Chamomilla vulgaris or Pulsatilla nigricans is at calming their crying and fussy baby.

Constitutional homeopathy, as described in the above Summary, is a third category of homeopathic medicine. It entails the prescription of a single remedy that patients take for their entire lifetime to clear their genetic tendency toward disease. We used to think that patients needed several constitutional remedies—one in their childhood, one perhaps during their difficult teen years, and one or two more as an adult. But this is no longer believed to be true. With the revolutionary new system of constitutional homeopathy from India, we have found that patients only actually need one homeopathic remedy for life. For example, one person may tend toward chronic fatigue and depression, another can suffer from intermittent migraine headaches, and yet another is plagued with low back pain and sciatica. These chronic symptoms represent a primary genetic (and epigenetic) distortion pattern operating throughout our lifetime.

Accurate prescribing of this single correct constitutional homeopathy is very challenging however, since out of hundreds of homeopathic remedies, the homeopath must determine which single one is the patient’s deepest lifetime remedy. It’s not easy. Thankfully though, the new “Sensation Method” developed by Dr. Rajan Sankaran and others in his Mumbai think tank is truly revolutionary. Through studying and learning this method, more and more homeopaths are finding the deepest constitutional remedy after an in-depth case-taking interview, and their patients are realizing more satisfying and curative results.

Homeopathic History:

Again, many holistically minded individuals already know something about the history of homeopathy, so in the following paragraphs I have included only a brief summary.

Homeopathy Originated in Germany:

Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), a brilliant German doctor who was conversant in at least eleven languages and as early as age twelve was tutoring other children in Greek and Latin, became convinced in medical school of the “danger and futility” of the allopathic healing methods of his day. Therefore, over the years in his practice Hahnemann utilized many natural methods of healing, until in 1789 when he launched this new field of medicine when he tested out his first homeopathic remedy, Cinchona officinalis or China, used to treat the intermittent fevers seen in malaria. Interestingly, just seven years later Edward Jenner (1749-1823) introduced the first vaccine in England—what I have referred to as homeopathy’s “ugly allopathic twin,” due to the significant damage that can result from these very toxic and dangerous childhood injections.

This Non-Toxic Field of Natural Medicine Spread Around the World:

In stark contradistinction to vaccines, homeopathic remedies contain no allergenic foreign proteins, no chemical preservatives, and no toxic metal adjuvants, but are made simply by diluting and succussing tiny amounts of plant, mineral or animal parts. This new field of holistic medicine was so effective that it soon spread rapidly and included such notable patients as Ludwig van Beethoven in Austria, Frédéric Chopin in Poland, Vincent van Gogh in France, Charles Darwin in England, Fyodor Dostoevsky in Russia, and Mahatma Ghandi in India.

The Success of Homeopathy in the US:

Homeopathy was incredibly popular in America as well, and was utilized by such medical luminaries as Charles Menninger, and William and Charles Mayo; leading literary figures such as Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Mark Twain and Louisa May Alcott; and eleven US presidents. In its heyday in the 1800’s there were twenty-two homeopathic medical schools including Boston University and the University of Michigan. and over 100 homeopathic hospitals in the US. This natural form of medicine was even successfully used during epidemics. For example, in the 1849 Cincinnati cholera epidemic, only three percent of homeopathic patients died, compared with nearly seventy percent of patients receiving conventional allopathic treatment. Later during the infamous 1918 Spanish flu epidemic, there was a mortality rate of 28.2 percent out of 24,000 cases treated at conventional medical hospitals, as compared to a 1.05 percent mortality rate for 26,000 patient cases treated in homeopathic hospitals.

The AMA Destroys Homeopathy in America:

As you can imagine, these homeopathic medical successes cut deeply into allopathic doctors’ (conventional medical) and pharmaceutical executives’ pockets. For example, the average medical doctor in the last decades of the nineteenth century averaged less than $1000 per year, whereas homeopathic physicians earned from $3000 to $7000 annually. In response, the American Medical Association (AMA) was founded in the mid-1880’s for the primary purpose “to stamp out the scourge of homeopathy.” Through this association’s efforts, as well as the backing of John D. Rockefeller, Jr. (not John D. Rockefeller, Sr. who used homeopathy all his life until his death at age 97), Andrew Carnegie, and a biased publication called the “Flexner Report” that consistently gave low ratings to homeopathic colleges, homeopathy was almost completely wiped out in this country. By 1950 there was not a single homeopathic medical school remaining in the US, and the remaining practicing homeopaths in America and Canada had dwindled from 15,000 to less than 100.

The Rebirth of Homeopathy:

However, due to the rise of holistic medicine the last few decades, as well as the many brave homeopaths in the last three centuries who refused to be silenced and continued to practice and teach, the field of homeopathy has revived and more and more patients are turning to this safe and effective field of natural healing. Naturopathic physicians (ND’s) are taught homeopathy as part of their curriculum in their naturopathic medical schools, of which currently there are six fully accredited in the US and two in Canada. There are also many homeopathic practitioners certified to practice in their various states, who have extensive training both at in-person conferences as well as through online educational seminars. As described earlier, Dr. Rajan Sankaran’s excellent new “Sensation Method” has been so successful that this leading school of homeopathic medicine is taught in various conferences worldwide and offers extensive classes online. A quote from his book, and the picture on the cover of the tiger/human figure, possibly best describe the very unique form of healing this amazing energetic method offers:

 “There exists a duality. On one hand, each individual has his life as a human being, singing his own human song. On the other hand…there is a non-human-world inside him that seems to sing another song altogether…The other spirit inside us is in itself melodious and complete. Yet it is out of place because it is not innately human, but a reflection of a pattern we have borrowed from the plant, animal, or mineral kingdoms. This different song in a human being creates disharmony and conflict.”

Rajan Sankaran, MD (Hom.)

The Other Song: Discovering Your 

Parallel Self

Thus, although the tiger is beautiful, it is out of place in our bodies. We need to live our lives as fully human, unburdened by chronic distortion patterns, in order to realize our highest potential (physically and psychologically). The homeopathic remedy made from a tiger (Panthera tigris), resonates with this tiger peronality inside, and over time clears this “ghost” in patients whose personality is too aggressive and hypervigilant (like a tiger). Plant remedies (e.g, homeopathic poison ivy, or Rhus Toxicodendron, used in patients with chronic eczema or psoriasis), and mineral remedies (e.g., homeopathic lead, or Plumbum metallicum, for exhausted patients with mental confusion) do the same, by slowly but surely clearing these non-human distortion patterns from our bodies, so that we can most fully live our lives as the truly healthy and realized beings we were meant to be.

How Long Does It Take?

If I help patients remove their “obstacles to clear” including dental focal infections and heavy metals; counsel them on diet and avoiding—or at least reducing—their food allergy (-ies); educate them on the dangers of 5G so that they can either move or mitigate this harmful electromagnetic radiation; and prescribe their constitutional remedy, then these measures can help them enjoy a much happier and healthier life.

But—and sorry that there’s always a “but”—for those of us who had childhood vaccinations we have one more obstacle to clear that is the most difficult and insidious of all—deposits of aluminum adjuvants in our bodies. Although the constitutional homeopathic remedy does help detoxify this most damaging metal, clearing it completely requires one more type of homeopathy—the use of a chronic homeopathic remedy. The remedy I have found that is most effective at clearing this life-long aluminum poisoning is a flint rock found in Russia that I had made in Scotland in a low potency form (30X). For well-prepared patients who have cleaned up their diet, dental toxins, and electromagnetic radiation issues, and further have been on their constitutional remedy at a high potency (10M) for a significant period of time, can then begin to detox the auto-immune-inducing vaccine aluminum adjuvant through a very gentle dose (tactile) of this flint rock remedy. Please note that these four initial steps are essential before attempting to clear the stores of aluminum adjuvants from our bodies; otherwise, the autoimmune detoxification symptoms (from “ASIA”—see #10 footnote) are just too severe. Below is a summary of these “Five D’s” that in my clinical experience are necessary for complete healing.

The Five D’s of Complete Healing:

Diet – You are on an organic Wise Traditions (Weston A. Price Foundation) diet and have greatly reduced eating your primary food allergy(-ies).

Dental – You have removed all the toxic metals and cleared any dental focal infections with a biological dentist. Further, if you have a significant malocclusion, this has been mitigated with oral appliances from a biological orthopedic dentist.

Distortion Pattern – You have moved from the lower potencies of 200C and 1M potencies over a period of months, as well as briefly taken your intercurrent miasmic remedy, and are now on your deepest constitutional homeopathic on the lifelong highest potency level of 10M.

Domicile – You have cable internet wiring at home, or if you have to have WiFi, at least it is turned off every night; you are not living too close to a 5G cell tower; and you have an EMF-reducing (Safe Sleeve) case on your cell phone and use it on speakerphone.

Detox Vaccinosis – The worst toxic insult in our lives and one that rendered us all essentially with an autoimmune disease, was the aluminum adjuvant in our DPT vaccine at age six months (if you are over 36) or the Hepatitis B vaccine at birth (if you are under 36). As previously mentioned, the treatment for this chronic form of “vaccinosis,” or “ASIA” (Autoimmune/inflammatory Syndrome Induced by Adjuvants), can only be commenced when the first four steps have been taken.

This healing regimen takes approximately two years.

We Need You!:

If you are interested in becoming a homeopath it is best to start with acute prescribing which is a valuable skill and not as overwhelming as constitutional homeopathy. There are two schools in the US I would recommend. Additionally, Dr. Sankaran’s information is also included below for practicing homeopaths who want to learn the “Sensation Method” as well as his incredibly helpful new “Superclass System,” to help them achieve more accurate and consistent results in their constitutional prescribing.
