Homeopathy for Musculoskeletal Healing

Don't know anything about homeopathy? Get it.Think you know a lot about homeopathy? GET IT!Awesome book. SO MUCH great information here-the headache diagrams alone are worth buying this thing!! I guess maybe not if you are not a headache sufferer, but if you are & you are familiar with homeopathy; then, you know what I mean. There are a ton of remedies that treat headache and sometimes as your head throbs it is hard to recall which go with what pain or concomitants. Imagine having the heavy hitters all in one place for a quick reference. Awesome!I love the set up of this book-for each area (example knee ailments) the remedies are sorted by chronic and acute. Additional support is suggested when appropriate from cell salts as well. FABULOUS information.I bought this book to try to find information to help a friend of mine with back issues. I didn't have lofty expectations of it, which may be why I am SO thrilled with it. Honestly though, I have used it many times already for myself and family in just a few months and learned a lot from reading it. I highly recommend that you add it to your collection!Great reference, great educational tool, great book.

Asa Hershoff makes it easy to find the matching remedy. The book is a great resource for every homeopath. The author has incorporated in this book more than 100 homeopathy books and extracted all the relevant information for the treatment of musculoskeletal healing.The book includes a section on the principles of homeopathy, and introduces the musculoskeletal system. The information supplied is organized in well-structured charts which each comes with outstanding illlustrations by the author.Asa covers the treatment of trauma, spine and back pain problems including sciatica, conditions in shoulder-arm, wrist (carpal tunnel syndrome), hip joint, knee and ankle as well as acute and chronic arthritis, fibromyalgia, acute and chronic headache. I especially like the illustrations of the headache section which show what remedy to choose depending on the location of the headache.The book even helps me in treating joint problems in horses! I highly recommend it to any homeopath.

In a snapshot view can see what remedies are compatible and what remedies are antidotes to each other.

Sometimes the only thing your doctor says to you is:"oh, you know, you are getting older and you feel it in your joints." Then you get a month or two of physical therapy and that's it. You are not ill enough to be an interesting patient, so they just give you painkillers and you are on your own.That's what happened to me. This book helped me to find an appropriate remedy, feel better and stay active.It's very well written and easy to use. I've been using homeopathy for myself and my family for many years and this book is helping me to make good remedy choices.I like the fact it contains not only therapeutical guide but also a mini materia medica with descriptions of many remedies used in musculosceletal diseases. The style of writing is clear and not talkative, which is great.Highly recommended.

The book provides a quick reference check with excellent uncomplicated illustrations and remedies for the musculoskeletal system. I am dealing with RA and keep this book at my bedside. It also includes information regarding the remedies which I found most helpful.

The book is ok but the drawings are a drawback. Besides looking amatuerish - I can't decipher what one symbol is supposed to represent. I'm guessing it is supposed to indicate thirst or excess salivation. Maybe there is a symbol key and I'm missing it but things like that should be easy to find. It might seem petty but our society is pretty visually oriented. I've hesitated showing the book to others because the drawings make it seem unprofessional. It's fine if you are comfortable with homeopathy but it's not a plus to someone who might not yet be on board.

Great book if you have experience with the use of homeopathic medicine. But read it any way to start getting familiar with this beautiful and life saver alternative medicine.

I own several books on homeopathy, including the other homeopathic book by Dr. Hershoff (which I use a lot). This one, however, is BY FAR the most useful and practical guide on homeopathic remedies I have ever purchased. Both his books are always with me along with my remedy kit. I hope Dr Hershoff will release more practical guides like this one. Maybe his next one could be on constitutional remedies? Or emotional/psychological remedies? I’ll buy them all! Love the neat way information is organized... makes finding proper remedy for the situation much easier.
