Don\u2019t let the credit crunch affect your health<\/strong><\/p>\n

The current economic climate could have health repercussions \u2013 stress can severely affect health and well-being, making us more prone to illness, warns Hove homeopath Carmel O\u2019Dell<\/p>\n

Stress prompts the body to increase production of the hormones adrenaline and cortisol, causing changes in blood pressure heart rate and metabolism \u2013 necessary in the short term, but over long periods this can lead to headaches,\u00a0 indigestion, diarrhoea, insomnia, general tiredness and even palpitations, anxiety and depression.<\/p>\n

Homeopathic treatment with a fully qualified and registered RSHom practitioner can help individuals cope better with the effects of stress \u2013 a carefully chosen homeopathic medicine matched to the individual patient can help with the mental, emotional and physical symptoms of stress, by triggering the body\u2019s natural system of healing.<\/p>\n

Carmel, who runs a clinics in Hove and Hurstpierpoint explained: \u201cIn homeopathic medicine the approach is holistic, recognising that there is a connection between mind and body, with each prescription based on the individual patient\u2019s experience of their symptoms.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2005 a service evaluation of homeopathic treatment at Bristol Homeopathic Hospital reported that 70.7 per cent of 6,544 follow-up patients experienced improvement in their health, in a variety of conditions including migraine, irritable bowel syndrome, depression and chronic fatigue syndrome.1<\/sup><\/p>\n

Carmel added: \u201cIt is obviously better to seek treatment before symptoms become serious, recognising the early warning signs such as increased irritability, sleeplessness, and feelings of dread or guilt.\u201d<\/p>\n

Minor, short lived symptoms can be treated at home with homeopathic remedies, although chronic long-term illness and mental health symptoms should be seen by a professional homeopath and your GP.<\/p>\n
