The Complete Self-Care Guide to Homeopathy, Herbal Remedies, & Nutritional Supplements

Ellen Feingold, MD

List price: $24.95
Our price: $24.95


Written by a pediatrician who is a homeopath and who has extensive experience in also using herbs and supplements, this book is a very practical guidebook to improving your and your family's health...

This comprehensive book teaches and preaches self-care for both treatment and prevention of a whole host of ailments. It will help you to integrate proven homeopathic remedies, herbal remedies, nutritional supplements, and life style changes towards a gentle, effective healing.

The extensive list of ailments whose treatments are outlined in the book ranges from the everyday acute conditions afflicting most of us at sometime during our lives to the chronic, relapsing conditions that we would like to prevent. Every recommendation is based on sound medical evidence and Dr. Feingold's clinical experience.

 

Ellen Feingold, M.D. has been a physician for 40 years, most of that time practicing pediatrics and adolescent medicine. While living and working in Jerusalem, Israel, she took the Masters in Public Health degree at Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School where she learned how to evaluate medical evidence from research studies.

She began her long journey towards alternative medicine after a gradual realization in her private practice office, discovering for herself that conventional medicine was not capable of deep healing. In 1994, she began her studies in homeopathy at the Israel Medical College of Homeopathy, a school whose curriculum is based on the Institut Homeopathique Scientifique of France, graduating in 1996.

Today, she is the Director of the Homeopathy Center of Delaware where she practices homeopathy, herbal medicine, and nutritional therapies exclusively, treating persons throughout the age spectrum. Although she treats the entire range of human diseases, her clinical interests are cancer, emotional ailments, behavioral disorders, eating disorders, and obesity. She has always been interested in empowering men and women to practice self-care for many common ailments, safely and effectively.
