OCD Disappearing With Homeopathic Treatment-A Real Case Study


​This case study highlights the positive effect of homeopathy in OCD cases.
Luke is a 5 year old who had the most severe case of compulsive hand washing I had experienced. He was suffering from blisters on his hands from over washing and could not deal with dirt. What follows is an account of his homeopathic treatment.

Major Symptoms

  • Avoids messy objects/situations/food
  • Fear of germs and contamination
  • Compulsive thoughts to wash hands
  • Blisters from washing hands constantly
  • Does not like touching own nose or mouth 
  • Does not like going to the toilet
  • Tells others to wash their hands and gets anxious if they don’t
  • Bedwetting
  • Knee pain
  • Chronic constipation

Medication History

  • Completed NHS vaccine schedule
  • Big reaction to vaccine at 4 months – cried continuously for 4 hours
  • Multiple doses of Calpol for knee pain
  • Strong allergic reaction to Calpol at 4 years old
  • Multiple doses of  antibiotics for recurrent tonsillitis
  • Mother had antibiotics when 6 weeks pregnant, and was given some intravenously during labour 

Initial thoughts on the case

Luke clearly had a compromised immune system. This could have been due to genetic susceptibility, or result from continued suppression by antibiotics and/or painkillers. It may all have been compounded by the vaccine programme.

Luke had already been to a homeopath who prescribed Belladonna as a constitutional remedy. This resulted in a marked improvement in his well-being, however, it did not touch the OCD symptoms.

I decided that he needed to detox all of the drugs/vaccines from his system to alleviate his OCD symptoms.

First Prescription for a month:

One remedy plus lots of organ support remedies

Reaction:

Lots of diarrhoea initially and then it settled. ( This can be a positive sign of toxins leaving the body, or just something not related to homeopathy, like a normal tummy bug.)
Before the remedy he would go to the toilet every 2 or 3 days, now he goes once/twice a day.
One night fever.
Less aggressive, more happy and content.

Second Prescription for a fortnight:

Antibiotic Detox prescription

Reaction:

Attitude to OCD has changed. “More of a joke now”, less anxiety.
Chicken Pox came 3 days after the remedy along with a fever.
Temperature was not suppressed with Calpol but allowed to take its course and “burn off” whatever the fever had to fight. (Homeopathic fever remedies were provided to ease fever symptoms.)
Stopped bedwetting.
Behaviour had become more “childlike” instead of “grown up” which is a big change for him.

Third Prescription for a fortnight:

Antibiotic Detox prescription

Reaction:

Not aware of feet being dirty.
Can now put his finger into his baby sister’s mouth without anxiety.
Doesn’t get upset about mucus.
Far less anxiety about decision making.

Fourth Prescription for a month:

Remedies to match remaining symptoms

Reaction:

Parents do not think the OCD behaviour is a concern at all anymore.
They are more concerned about other behaviours that have now surfaced, or have more prominence than before, such as fear of dogs, anxiety in crowds and meeting new people.
Knee pain better.

Fifth Prescription for a month:

One remedy

Reaction:

Much better with dogs and cats now.
Does not get too afraid of crowds now and is OK with new people.
Tonsillitis

Sixth Prescription:

As an acute case:
Merc 30c then Hepar Sulph 30c then Sulph 30c finished off the acute bout of tonsillitis.

Analysis:

In my opinion the antibiotics had some role to play in Luke’s OCD. Luke is now on a program to detox the vaccines he received as a baby in order to restore his immune system so that he does not continue to endure the recurrent tonsillitis. Allowing the fever to develop allowed Luke to heal in a few days rather than resorting to suppressing the illness with Calpol, thus prolonging the fever and its symptoms, inevitably leading to antibiotics. (I will discuss fevers in another post.)

Using homeopathy to deal with his OCD instead of using NHS drugs meant that Luke was able to heal the root of the problem rather than dealing with just the symptoms, whilst also having to deal with extra side effects of the drugs alongside it.

Homeopathy is natural, tastes nice, has no side effects, and encourages the body to heal itself without having to rely upon daily tablets.

Luke was my patient via Skype.

Total time of treatment: 5 months

Affordable and effective treatment for OCD symptoms.

Rita Robinson, October 2015

“Rita has been a lifesaver for my family. She has helped our son tremendously. Before we met Rita, my 5 year old was suffering with anxiety and OCD. It was so bad to the point it was affecting our family life. We couldn’t even get out of the house as it was causing him a lot of suffering. She was extremely supportive and patient from day one, as our journey was quite difficult. She recommended detox from medication and vaccines and this has brought up lots of old issues to the surface. It took a while to see him get better but the results are amazing. He is a different boy now, enjoying his childhood. Our son loves Rita. He enjoys talking to her every time and he tells everyone about her and how much she has helped. It is a pleasure to work with her. She’s always there for us when we need her and that’s so reassuring. We cannot recommend her enough.”

HPV- Gardasil and Cervarix Injury New Criteria Guidelines

If you are a Gardasil injured person looking to book in, please read this new criteria first.

As we are the most experienced homeopathic team dealing with this type of case, we have decided to only take on clients who fit the new criteria below. If you do not fit the criteria below then homeopathy can still work for you, but we are not the right therapists for you.

1. The patient has to be committed to healing themselves and understand that they are fully responsible for their health.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

That the patient doesn’t rely on us and the pills to do all the work. To understand that their lifestyle choices will speed up or impair recovery and that no medicine can be a substitute for lifestyle choices that hinder recovery. At the end of the day, we are all responsible for ourselves, and the choices we make.

2. To begin working with us the patient has to have in place or commit to having a clean sleep routine.

This means going to sleep with the lights out by 10 pm the latest and being on no devices an hour beforehand. All of our patients have adrenal fatigue and thyroid issues. When you go to bed late or are on devices late, then too much light is being emitted from phones/tablets a few inches from your eyes. That amount of bright light signals the body to make more adrenaline because it thinks it’s in the afternoon and that then creates more cortisol that prevents sleep and makes you tired in the morning. Melatonin and pineal levels are messed up too. Our patients have severely imbalanced hormones, and melatonin, the pineal gland, adrenals and the thyroid all need to be in balance to recover. If your sleep cycle is out, you don’t need pills to correct it – you just need to get a clean sleep routine and your body will get into balance in a couple of days. What you do when you are recovered is up to you – but if you want to work with us, this is a non-negotiable requirement.

3. You are not on the contraceptive pill or are on steroid inhalers.

These are synthetic hormones and are a big block to curing. When someone is on these, we can’t really get started as they are contributing to the hormones being unbalanced. We can work with you if you intend to come off the pill before your prescription starts or if you intend to come off inhalers before we start detoxing. We cannot start detoxing or bring you to a full recovery unless these 2 medicines are out of the picture. We can help with period pain, and asthma anyway in the prescriptions. If you are fully reliant on these medicines then we are not the therapists for you.

4. You have a good diet and eat vegetables.

What you eat affects your health. A lot of the imbalance in the body centres in the stomach. This doesn’t mean you have stomach pains – but your microbiome is key to healing. We are looking for patients who eat some vegetables and fruits. We cannot work with patients who just eat processed food and no fruits and vegetables at all. We can work with patients who have a limited diet but are committed to eating a wider variety of healthy foods. If you don’t meet this criteria it will take too long to help you fully recover and we will only get halfway.

5. If you are on prescribed medicines it is your wish and intention to get off them.

Some patients want to stay on medication while asking us to fully heal them. All medicines come with side effects, which we can’t heal while the patient is on them, therefore we are being asked to do an impossible task. Of course, we see many patients on meds and they end up reducing their dosage and not needing them. They actively don’t want to be on them. If you are happy with any medicines and want to stay on them, then we are not the therapists for you. We are interested in working with people who want to be fully and holistically well, and only then can we work to the best of our ability.

IF YOU HAVE SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS CRITERIA THEN PLEASE DO EMAIL ME.

If you fulfil this criteria then we are confident that we can heal the majority of patients in 1-3 sessions.

WE WOULD LOVE TO WORK WITH YOU.
