Vibrational medicine is ideal for women during pregnancy as it is a gentle yet highly effective system of medicine. Some pregnant women choose to live with the discomfort of minor complaints such as morning sickness or heartburn, rather than seek treatment because they are concerned about the side effects of conventional medicines with regard to their unborn child.
Vibrational medicine however, has no side effects because only an electromagnetic dose is used in their preparation. They work by stimulating the body’s own healing mehcanisms. By being as healthy as possible during pregnancy, you are giving your baby the ideal conditions in which to develop and thrive.
When choosing a remedy, consider the symptoms, keeping these points in mind:
1. Where is the pain?
2. What does it feel like?
3. What makes it better or worse?
Choose the remedy that best describes the symptoms. REMEMBER: There is no wrong remedy. You can only err by not trying and therefore not assisting the body to heal. Selecting the best remedy may take a little practice but you will get better at it.
Our remedies are affordable, safe and highly effective. A single remedy can be used over and over to treat a host of different ailments.
