An Amazing Few Moments of Homeopathic Healing

We were sitting around, “chillin” as the younger crowd calls it, when Phil let out a “Whoa, what’s happening?!”. His one thumb was very blue. I jumped into homeopathic doctor mode and asked what the feeling was in his thumb. He said it felt a little cold. It was very strange circumstances – summertime, and we were sitting inside my house in ambient temperature. Except for Phil’s thumb nothing else was out of the ordinary. It was so unusual that we went into the bathroom for him to wash his hands in case his thumb was coated with a colorant of some sort. Phil was a little panicked, and to tell you the truth, I was too. I know the picture is a little dark, but you can still see the color difference. I only thought to take it after I gave him the homeopathic medicine, arnica, and we were waiting to see whether it would take effect. It took about 10 minutes until the thumb returned to a normal colour and felt the same temperature as the rest of his hand. It was Phil’s first time ever being treated with homeopathy and he couldn’t get over how quickly it worked. It was like watching reality t.v. – and we were really glued. Homeopathy is truly amazing!
Arnica is the remedy that wins over many adherents to homeopathic treatment. It is being used in sports medicine as the primary first aid for injuries, and by plastic surgeons for the astonishing effects it has in fast recovery, and for minimal swelling and bruising.
