I use it in water buckets in the barn if we have very rough weather, and also for myself!<BR/><BR/>I've used it with sick kittens (two of ours got a very sudden and severe infection due to tiny kitten claw puncture wounds we didn't know they had) and it made a quick and visible difference until we could get antibiotics.<BR/><BR/>I'll look forward to seeing you here!billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-12616085939927205932008-03-09T00:41:00.000-05:002008-03-09T00:41:00.000-05:00I bet you're right, it's probably available throug...I bet you're right, it's probably available through smaller retailers.

I don't know a thing about homeopathy, so I'm finding all this very interesting. I looked up Rescue Remedy, which I'd never heard of, but it looks like it's only available in the States. Still, you've given me something else to look into...Kim W Fall 2009https://www.blogger.com/profile/02383102838559644785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-3513367747181807302008-02-10T08:54:00.000-05:002008-02-10T08:54:00.000-05:00Victoria, I do too, the mirroring thing - I'm just...Victoria, I do too, the mirroring thing - I'm just not sure which direction it's going, with me and Keil Bay! <BR/><BR/>A constitutional is a single remedy, not a mixture (which is what something like Traumeel is) and usually given in a potency that triggers a deeper-acting response. There can be what's called "aggravations" which are temporary worsenings of the symptoms.<BR/><BR/>I don't know if this is true for most people - my homeopath says I'm the most sensitive person to remedies she's ever treated, and has asked me to help her with provings before on new remedies. I can feel the remedy starting to work almost immediately. I've always been sensitive to medication, to the point that I have odd reactions to things and have repeatedly perplexed doctors most of my life.<BR/><BR/>I don't take any medication at all - the occasional motrin or advil, but even those otc meds make me feel weird.<BR/><BR/>Rescue Remedy and Arnica have been two stock remedies in our home since my children were born. We actually had a saying, when anyone got hurt - "do you need to be Rescued?" :)billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-57220917573614067682008-02-10T06:09:00.000-05:002008-02-10T06:09:00.000-05:00I think our horses do mirror us, even with our ail...I think our horses do mirror us, even with our ailments. You're lucky to have a good chiropractor and homeopath. What is in a constitutional? I've only tried a couple of homeopathic remedies, like arnica. I do like to use "Rescue Remedy" on both myself and the horses.Victoria Cummingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17267314663679137147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-25257079456049900492008-02-09T18:36:00.000-05:002008-02-09T18:36:00.000-05:00Thanks - he seems to feel okay for the most part. ...Thanks - he seems to feel okay for the most part.

I'll look forward to your post on Reiki - I have a friend who does that and I've often thought of having her work with the horses.billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-20390271178399380792008-02-09T08:27:00.000-05:002008-02-09T08:27:00.000-05:00This sounds very interesting, I am always intrigue...This sounds very interesting, I am always intrigued by alternative methods for helping people and animals.

The owner sent photos regularly so we could watch the development. One was smaller and weaker at birth but with good care it eventually got strong.<BR/><BR/>One photo showed both foals nursing at the same time - one on each side. I can't imagine the mare keeping up with two of them once they hit the frolic stage!billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31257856.post-76770341963708281892008-02-08T23:44:00.000-05:002008-02-08T23:44:00.000-05:00Geez, when I first read "twins" I thought you were...Geez, when I first read "twins" I thought you were talking twin horses. My immediate reaction to that is OMG!<BR/><BR/>I'm glad it didn't turn out to be horse twins but more like kindred spirits kind of twins. lolRising Rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.com
