Remedies For Acute Reactions Immediately Following Vaccinations

I'm trying to take this quote to heart myself!Acute treatment of vaccination reactions may help to mitigate the damage that vaccinations can cause.

The topic of vaccination is a heated one. If you do choose to vaccinate, learn everything you can from a diverse assortment of "bodies of knowledge" on the subject. Also working with homeopathic remedies and/or a homeopathic physician if you do decide to vaccinate is recommended. Homeopathy can remove the effects of vaccinations in an child or an adult many years after vaccinations have taken place. The sphere of removing effects of vaccinations belongs to the homeopath; the choice to vaccinate, partially vaccinate or not vaccinate belongs to the parents. 

Ledum palustre (aka Ledum)

Nondescript reactions for any vaccination. Ledum is specific for DPT vaccination. Ledum is often used for puncture wounds as with a sharp instrument or for a poisonous bite. With Ledum, the arm or leg looks bruised with black and blue discoloration. The area around the vaccination may be dark, bruised, sore, achy and infected looking. It does not heal well. In this situation, The Homeopathic Remedy Ledum 30C is recommended.

Arnica Montana Saved our Butts!

My husband and I signed up for a 50 mile bike ride up in Northern Michigan a few weeks ago.  We didn't train for it; although it crossed my mind...

We went up with friends.  They're avid cyclists, riding to school and work at least a few times a week. Carl and I on the other hand, hadn't looked at our bikes since last summer and we knew we could be in trouble.  

I thought ahead though and picked up some Arnica Montana 30c (Arnica for short) from the local Health Food Store (Better Health).  It's made by a company called Boiron. It's indicated for trauma, bruising and to speed recovery thereafter.  It comes in little blue tubes and costs around $7.00. They're these tiny pellets that you take sublingually (let disolve under the tongue). 80 pellets per tube. Dose: 1 pellet.
