This book abundantly illustrates the naturopathic central article of faith, that the body is run by a ‘purposeful life spirit.’ Per: “homeopathic remedies stimulate the body’s vital force, enhancing its ability to heal itself. The `vital force’ described by Hahnemann cannot be precisely identified. Even today’s most technologically advanced medical detectives do not really understand the ways in which body and mind work together. A complex interrelationship between immune factors and regenerative biological systems, the essential life force locked within body and mind remains a mystery [p.033...] the correct constitutional remedy will help strengthen and stimulate the vital life force [p.035...] in Chinese philosophy, the energy that pulses through all things, animate and inanimate, is called chi [...] chi flows through all things [...] creating harmony and disharmony [...] Chinese medicine works directly with the natural, vital energy – or chi – of the body. The goal of acupuncture and acupressure is to normalize the body’s energies. Chi can be tapped at specific points along channels known as meridians [...] by tonifying (increasing energy in) a specific area, the yin-yang balance is treated. Moving an excess of chi from one area and directing it to another, weaker area, corrects the yin-yang balance [p.044].” Vitalistic medicine / sectarian medicine’s ‘purposeful life spirit’ is as real as the Tooth Fairy. -DBI.

This book is a wonderful addition to a healthcare library, but it shouldn’t be the only book in it. When my children were exposed to hand-foot-and-mouth disease, I found nothing to help in this book. On the other hand “Baby and Child Care” by James Dobson did address the issue.

I bought this hoping would help my daughter and my family, but was very disappointed when something really happens, I can’t find a way to deal with it. Take a easy example, my daughter has this eczema and I tried to find a easy way to help her at home, but all I could find from the book are some very strange medicines that I’ve never heard of before. I guess maybe it’s strictly for people who are familiar with homeopathy, but not for me definately!

This is an incredible resource for moms. It gives insight on how to treat your child without calling the doctor every other day! Also gives advice on what dangers to look for and WHEN you should notify or get outside help. I use this book as a shower gift for new moms especially! Excellent resource.

This is a great resource. I give it as baby shower presents to new mothers. I like all the methods of helping to treat an illness. I’ve even used some of the homeopathic methods for myself and found Washington Homeopathics to offer a great selection and more in the smaller containers which with three kids makes it very useful. We even took it overseas and it took care of many of our illnesses. Washington Homeopathic Products 30x Remedy Kit (50 vials)Smart Medicine is a must have and a tremendous resource for the middle of the night coughs or illnesses.
