Case 726: "I came to see Phil after my daughter (then 5 and a half months) had developed eczema. I had just begun weaning her and her eczema was getting worse and spreading and I was getting very concerned. I had tried various different creams and nothing seemed to help. We spent an hour with Phil who took a detailed account of her eczema, when it had started and so on as well as what kind of person my daughter is. He prescribed a homeopathic remedy for 5 days. Within just a few hours of taking the first pill, her skin started to look better. After 5 days, certain patches of eczema had disappeared. After a month, we came back to see Phil and he gave her another 5 days of a homeopathic remedy. By the end of the 5 days, her skin was completely clear. This was 4 weeks ago and her skin is still lovely. I would not hesitate in using homeopathy again, either for if her eczema should come back for anything else. " "Phil Edmonds treated my 8yr old son when he was 9 months old for eczema that was very severe. For 9 months he had been a very unsettled, angry baby with much discomfort and itching due to his condition. After three weeks of treatment he became a happier baby and over the following month his eczema gradually disappeared. His eczema has never re-appeared, and he has enjoyed great health since with his continued constitutional treatment. My other two sons have received regular constitutional treatment with Phil to ensure a healthy immune system, and as a result they also enjoy antibiotic and drug-free health". Our daughter, Sadie, was born 10th August 2001. As is every new parent, we were overwhelmed with pride and love on her arrival. As she grew it very soon became apparent that she was suffering from an acute skin disorder which was causing her great discomfort; our GP very quickly, and accurately, diagnosed Sadie as having Eczema. By the time Sadie was 6 months, virtually her whole body was covered with blistering skin. As a child I had suffered with Eczema, but nothing in comparison to her condition. We spent months trying various ‘lotions and potions’ without any result, if anything her condition was worsening and we were despairing. We were seriously concerned that she may suffer from long term visible scarring. At the age of about 1 year a friend of my wife’s recommended a Homeopath who she had visited, I openly admit that I scoffed at the idea as I had always viewed alternative therapies as hippies work! However having exhausted all other avenues, we reluctantly took Sadie to meet Phillip Edmonds. From our very first meeting it was evident that there was a clear and incisive understanding of the way the body reacted; Phil seemed to know things about Sadie’s behaviour that we hadn’t mentioned. He explained to us in layman’s terms how homeopathy targeted the root of the problem instead of simply treating the symptoms. Over what seemed a very short period of time, maybe 3 months, Phil had successfully treated and abolished Sadie’s Eczema; she still suffers from very minor irritation when the weather is hot or she is run down, but nothing by comparison to how she used to be. In 2009 our son, Callum, was born. We had been hopeful that he would not be affected by Eczema, although I am convinced that it is hereditary, however he too followed a similar pattern to Sadie. Without a second thought we arranged for Phil to meet him. He is still being treated now, but again the improvement is dramatic, and I know with complete certainty that his Eczema will be cured, or at the very least controlled. Gary Beach 24/06/10 Patient 583: Constant itching at base of skull: Due to pace of life I tend to go for quick fixes and keep myself going with alternative means. Homeopathy seems to be a long term treatment and I feel that one needs to be a able to give it time and space to work. 50% improvement after first month.

Patient 302: I was especially pleased with the fact that I was able to refuse anti-depressants last autumn when suffering from anxiety and depression, and felt hugely better as a result of a homeopathic remedy. Although the consultations can be challenging, they do reveal possibly unpalatable truths about one's lifestyle and can prompt change, or a new way of looking at problems. Also during the treatment for anxiety as above, it was interesting that the remedy which I initially took in a high concentration provoked palpitations, which had been the nastiest symptom of the anxiety, Although it was a bit alarming I adjusted the concentration with the homeopath's guidance, and the drops were then very effective. I thought the episode did give lie to the argument that remedies are so dilute no-one would ever feel the effects!

Patient 626: 2 weeks after 1st remedy had MMR vaccine, followed by 2 week fever and complete loss of appetite. Here is the email I received from the mother 7 hours after the 2nd remedy, 15 days after MMR vaccine.
"Just thought I’d let you know about the miracle baby ... after seeing you she went to sleep. Normally has a 3-4 hour nap but woke up after an hour and a half, which she never does. She ate one whole jar and that was enough for her and now has just eaten a normal size dinner ... what a difference after 2 weeks of eating nothing!! Thanks! Cheque is in the post and should arrive tomorrow. "
I have used homeopathy myself and on my children, my horses and dog for over 15 years, with the help of Geoff Johnson in Somerset when it needed a more experienced view, and I can only say that our visits to doctors and vets between us over that time have been very infrequent. My children were too young to know what type of treatment they received to begin with and my animals clearly can't understand, but there is no question that homeopathy has resolved a whole cross section of health issues, some of which conventional medicine failed to address. It saddens me greatly that today many doctors are not open minded enough to see that complementary medicine has a part to play and seek to damn it entirely. I believe time and scientific advance will prove them wrong.
Good Luck
