Issues Concerning Homeoprophylaxis
Prof. George Vithoulkas1: I want to talk to you about what is called lately homeoprophylaxis and clarify certain issues con- cerning this matter. There is a general idea of the remedy Arnica being used before and after an operation. Many homeopaths advise, take Arnica before operation so you don’t have much bleeding and then take Arnica afterwards to stop bleeding.
This is entirely wrong. Why? Because we use Arnica as a blood thinner. So if you have a clot of blood, it dissolves this clot. When you have a blow and there is an extravasation of blood and there are bruises with areas that are becoming blue, it means that the blood has created a lot of clot, and then you give Arnica, and like a miracle, these clots are dissolved. Why? Because Arnica is acting like Coumarin but better and faster than Coumarin, as there are no side effects.
But if Arnica is thinning the blood, it means that Arnica is contraindicated before an operation because, if anything, they will have more bleeding.
You see the illogical thinking of some people and also their misinformation?
Not only that. But you may get some people who say ‘We had tried and researched and we have found out that Arnica helps’. How they found out that Arnica helps if they cannot measure the bleeding before and without Arnica and the bleeding after Arnica?
But it is a fact that when you have a heart attack because of a blood clot, then the first remedy they may think to give is Arnica. Do you understand the misunderstandings that have taken place in the teaching of different schools?
