Homeopathy - Whole Vial

Is it possible there's a cure!?

From my Naturopathic Doctor, Dr. Jennifer Tanner, Hons. B.A. (Kin.)., ND:

It is quite plausible that you have found the root cause to your headaches. Any disturbance along a nerve root can cause residual pain and discomfort even for years to come. The remedy I have given you today is called Hekla lava (it is from volcano ash) and it has an affinity for dental type nerve pain. Hekla lava has been found helpful in situations where facial neuralgia or headaches have been caused by derangement of dental nerves or where a deteriorating tooth irritates the nerve. In your case, it may have been either or the infectious rag left in your gums. This remedy treats pains that at times are found on varies locations in the head and face (temples) and may become so severe that the pain affects eating or sleeping patterns and for tooth an jaw areas that have become sensitive to pressure.

Dosing:
Hekla lava 6CH: Take three pellets daily before bed time.

* Always take away from food, coffee and toothpaste.
* This should provide you with almost 6 weeks worth. When I see you next in September we will reassess the remedy and the dosage. Look for a lessening of tooth/gum pain and sensitivity as well as less frequent or intense headaches.
* Cause: it is possible to have a return of symptoms, this is normal and will pass.
* If you experience a headache you may take 3 pellets every 15 minutes for one hour until the headache dissipates.


The vial contained 80 pellets which doesn't make sense for 6 weeks worth I'd need 6 * 7 * 3 = 126 pellets. Eighty divided by 3 equals 26.67 days worth and I used 9 one day for a headache so that leaves me 71 which is a treatment for about 24 days. I will start a steady treatment of the remaining pellets in August, or when I get another migraine - whichever comes first.
