![]() When Jane (name has been changed) was born, everyone was surprised to hear that she had been born with Down's Syndrome. Throughout the pregnancy everything had gone well and there were no hints of any complications; nevertheless, Jane was diagnosed with Trisomy 21. Trisomy 21 or Down's syndrome, is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of all or part of a third copy of chromosome 21. Jane was however, very lucky to not have been born with any major health conditions that often accompany DS like holes in the heart or lung issues. Since her mother had been an avid user of Homeopathy for a few years, Jane was brought to my attention and almost immediately began receiving Homeopathic treatment. First, to aid in her general development, but later to address her nystagmus; an uncontrollable movement of the eyes. The remedy chosen was Agaricus Muscarius, and after one dose of the remedy, Jane's nystagmus began to show improvement. Since then, the remedy has aided in controlling the movement and given Jane time to adapt to it so her own eye muscles can learn to control the nystagmus. This is the crux of homeopathy. The remedy itself is not the one that treats, heals or cures. It is simply the catalyst that set's the body's own healing abilities in motion. Jane continues to use homeopathic remedies to aid in her mental and physical development, hypotony as well as any acutes which come along the way such as teething. Through homeopathy, Jane is developing at an excellent rate, and she continues to exceed everyone's expectations. Jane does not exclusively use Homeopathy, as there is a place for many forms of therapy including traditional medicine. Homeopathy is another powerful tool that can be used to help in development and improvement of the quality of life for an individual such as Jane.
