Teething problems in babies

I recommend Traumeel Gel by Heel for teething problems in babies.  This is a very safe, natural and effective teething gel which I guarantee will give baby relief from pain.

Testimonial from 16 year old boy with Severe Eczema

I am a 16 year old boy who has had excema for most of my life. I came

to see Lynne late last year when it had become really bad - I was seeing

a specialist at the hospital as all my lymph nodes were inflamed with

the infection, it was horrible. But the doctors just gave me more

steroids and antibiotics. My skin was flaking off in large chunks and

I was embarrassed to be seen at school. Lynne was very understanding

and inspired confidence in me that we could beat the excema... she

didn't make me feel embarrassed because of my skin. She did some

testing and changed my diet, and gave me herbal medicines and tablets.

After 3 months my skin is heaps better, and eventually I can tell it

will completely heal. I'm so glad we went to see her.

ECZEMA

Skin conditions are embarrassing for the sufferer, as they are so visible and confidence and self-esteem are affected.  They can be painful, itchy and unsightly and patients just want them gone.  They are however, a challenge of complexity for me to treat as I am there to try and identify and treat the cause or causes.  This is not always easy as people want to feel better now, not later.  They have often been under hospital specialists for years and tried a lot of self-medication.  By the time I see skin patients, they may not be patient!  I have now been in practice eight years and have gained valuable experience in the treatment of skin troubles.
