Homeopathy for babies and children

Are you looking for a way to improve your child’s health?

Homeopathy can be effective in helping children deal with anything from allergies to autism, OCD to ear infections and lots in between.

It is a gentle, holistic therapy and is safe for use by pregnant mums, newborn babies and children.

One young patient’s mum says of her child who had Homeopathy for stomach pain, nausea and anxiety:

‘Improved school attendance, confidence. Very few episodes of nausea since. Emma is so good at listening to young people.’

A German study involving 493 patients seen in general practice found that treatment by a homeopath gave better outcomes than conventional treatment for similar costs[4] 4.

This study published in 2005 was commissioned by a German health insurance company to see whether they should continue to cover homeopathic treatment. The outcomes and costs of homeopathic and conventional treatment were compared in patients being treated for chronic conditions commonly seen in general practice. These included headache, low back pain, depression, insomnia and sinusitis in adults, and atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis and asthma in children.

Results: The analyses of 493 patients (315 adults, 178 children) indicated greater improvement in patients' assessments after homoeopathic versus conventional treatment and concluded that Patients seeking homoeopathic treatment had a better outcome overall compared with patients on conventional treatment, whereas total costs in both groups were similar.

In a study involving 499 children aged 18mths to 4 years, homeopathic treatment was found to be more medically effective and cost-effective than antibiotics in the treatment of recurrent upper respiratory tract infections[5] 5.

Homeopathy, 2005; 94: 3-9

A French study compared homeopathic and conventional treatment of recurrent acute rhinopharyngitis in children. Homeopathic treatment gave significantly better results than antibiotics in terms of medical effectiveness (e.g. number of episodes of illness) with lower direct medical costs (88 Euros vs 99 Euros) and significantly less sick-leave (9.5% of parents vs 31.6% of parents).

Out of 103 children in the homeopathy group only 5 needed antibiotics. The children receiving homeopathy had faster pain relief during the initial infection and fewer ear infections over the following year. The study published in the International Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics concluded that homeopathy should be the first line treatment for acute otitis media in children. [8] 8.
