By

Neepa Sevak
Are you feeling inactive, unbalanced, having aches and pains, digestive or skin problems, frequent
infections, or have lately drifted away from a healthy lifestyle? Then, it might be time for a detox or
Homeopathic drainage. We live in a world full of toxins, the air that we breath, food that we eat, water that
we drink is thronged of impurities. Incorrect living habits like indiscriminate use of drugs, coffee, tea,
alcohol, tobacco, daily stress all have their toxic effects on the organs and tissues. More toxin
accumulation can reduce our bodys physiological efficiency. Moreover, todays fast-paced lifestyle also
labors the bodys normal functions and exhorts the body past its inherent aptitude of detoxification. The
action of these toxins can critically deteriorate our immune system and cause vague symptoms.
Detoxifying or draining the body is a vital stride in flushing out the toxins naturally through cleansing, to
ease the symptoms and to execute its functions appropriately. Homeopathic drainage is a therapeutic
means of removal of unwanted by products of the organisms and toxins through the natural excretory
organs that is the nose, skin, liver, lungs, pancreas, kidneys, intestines and genitals.

Homeopathic approach to Detoxification:

The human body is a powerful self-detoxification machine. The majority of detoxification and elimination is
carried out by four systems in the body: respiratory, digestive, urinary and dermal. If these systems are
not working well, the toxins will accumulate inside the body and cause problems.
Homeopathic constitutional approach helps balance organ systems and help the body achieve an optimal
detoxification and self-healing ability. Homeopathic remedies are used to stimulate cells to release toxins,
stimulate elimination organs, energize organs and help them recover from stress caused by toxins.
Homeopathic approach is a safe, natural and effective method in eliminating these toxins that we get
exposed to in our daily lives. Homeopathic remedies help the body heal by promoting its own natural
defense system. The holistic approach of Homeopathy targets each organ and its supporting system to
cleanse and work in harmony. Homeopathic remedies can target specific toxins, groups of toxins or
specific organs and aid in tonification, elimination, work as diuretics to help push fluid through the
Kidneys. Work as systemic cleansers to aid in cellular elimination, work as stimulants to enhance energy,
may also work as anti-inflammatory and reduce tissue swelling.
Homeopathic remedies reinforce the bodys natural ability to remove toxins and waste byproducts, without
harmful side effects and without harsh laxatives. Remedies work by stimulating the body's natural
processes of elimination to cleanse itself of poisons, from environmental pollution, substance abuse, poor
diet, allergens, pollutants like harmful heavy metals, parasites and can even remove toxins from stress,
mental imbalances and chemical changes. Homeopathic remedies will assist in the body's natural
cleaning process by stimulating the liver, intestines, kidneys and skin to eliminate toxins from the body.
The remedies will improve blood circulation, support healthy weight management, promote healthy
energy levels, promote healthy skin, support healthy liver functioning, improve mood, give a sense of well
being and above all support healthy immune system resulting into fewer illnesses. The great thing about
Homeopathic detox is that it rebuilds and strengthens the immune system and can be incorporated with
other regimens without any conflict. The freeing of toxins into the blood stream removes the blockage,
enabling the vital force to prepare the body for a return to health. The remedies will further promote
healing of damaged systems and restore proper functioning to sluggish or overactive systems, so that the
body may be restored to a state of balance and health.
