Holiday Essentials
The schools broke up for the summer holidays, so it is time for traveling again. Take it easy when traveling and take a lot of breaks to make sure you do everything to arrive safely at your destination. Assuming that you arrived safely at your destination and hopefully without being sick, it is important to stay that way. For the most precious weeks of the year make sure that you can enjoy them to the full. You don't want to be ill on holiday and there are some precautions you can take.
Homoeopathy can help with minor ailments so that you can enjoy unspoiled holidays. There are certain ailments you can quickly address with Homoeopathy. Suffering from travel sickness or being anxious about going on a plane is not a good start. As I mentioned in my blog last week, Cocculus indicus might help you with travel sickness particularly if you go by car. There are more remedies which can make your journey easy. Afraid to board a plane? Try Argentum nitricum, the homoeopathic preparation of silver nitrate.
Once you've reached your destination the unaccustomed food might give you the RUNNIES. Podophyllum might help and if you might suffer from the bad effects of spoiled meat Arsenicum album could give you relief.
On the other hand you might not be able to go to the loo because of the different diet. Alumina can help with travellers' constipation.
Don't stay too long in the sun but, if you didn't know your limitations and overdid it, Belladonna might bring relief, before you seek medical help.
One remedy I always advise to take on holidays, particularly going on a walking holiday, is Arnica because little accidents happen and if given immediately it brings great relief and reduces pain and swelling.
Please contact me on 07813 195468 if you want any help in assembling a travel kit or have any more questions but please remember to seek medical help if you do not feel better quickly and for more serious problems.
Please remember that Homoeopathy is a very individual medicine, so all the above advice is a guidance. Please contact me if you want a more individual approach and have a nice, unspoiled holiday.
