LM FAQs

What is an LM?

LMs are a strength of remedy as well as a type of prescribing. It is also known as Q potency and 50 millesimal potency. This unique potency was developed by Samuel Hahnemann to work deeper and faster in the body while at the same time being gentle.

How are they used?

They are used with chronic health conditions. LM remedies have the ability to get to the root of the problem and offer long-term improvement of the ailment. A single LM remedy typically works on multiple issues at the same time to improve a person's overall health. 

To Quote Samuel Hahnemann the Father of Homeopathy, "rapid, gentle and
permanent restoration of the health, or removal and annihilation of the disease in its whole
extent, in the shortest, most reliable, and most harmless way, on easily comprehensible
principles.”

What sort of illnesses do LMs help?

Here are just a few of the chronic conditions I have had success in treating:
Asthma
Anxiety
Depression
PCOS
Endometriosis
Hypertension
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Migraines
Acid Reflux
Eczema
Sarcoidosis
Chronic Fatigue
Fibromyalgia

This is by no means a complete list, if you are wondering if the chronic illness you are dealing with can be helped please contact me.

Can I purchase LM remedies on my own?

No. A person can only receive LM remedies when under the care of a homeopath as they need to be closely monitered.

Why have I never heard of this before?

It is estimated that only 10% of homeopaths know about LM remedies. It is also estimated that only 1% of homeopaths know how to use them correctly! Most of the world's LM practitioners are in India.

Why do you choose to use LMs versus other potencies?

Here are a few reasons I consider LMs to be the gold standard of care when it comes to chronic illnesses:

We are able to adjust dosing and strength of the remedy to fit an individual’s unique need. This allows for a tailor-made treatment for each person. 

A steady improvement is seen in the patient when using LMs versus C potencies. This is at least partially due to the regular dosing of the LM remedy. This is also why regular follow-ups are needed, so that we can continue to see that improvement.

This type of remedy is also much less likely to aggravate than others. In the rare instance that a person does have an aggravation it wears off quickly.  

The LM remedy is very easy to add to our daily routine, and only takes just a few minutes to take it each day.

So do you not use other potencies?

Other potencies still have their place in homeopathic care and I use them frequently. 

Are these remedies more expensive than C or M potencies?

A 3-month supply of the selected remedy is included with your initial and follow-up visits. If you happen to run out between visits there is a small charge to help cover postage and my time to send out another 3-month supply.
