Seven cases of young women with PCOS were treated with individualised homeopathic remedies. Marked improvement was observed in all seven cases. The irregular menstrual cycles and other associated symptoms became normal, along with a resolution of cysts in ovaries as evidenced by ultrasonography. All cases improved within 4 to 12 months of treatment.

Craving things that aren’t food? It might be Pica. Pica is a condition where a person develops a repeated urge to eat or chew things that aren’t normally considered food.

This can include:

• Ice
• Chalk
• Soil or clay
• Paper
• Hair
• Soap
• Paint
• Plaster
• Starch

One of the interesting things about Pica is that sometimes these unusual cravings can be a clue that the body needs a little more attention.

For example, a strong desire to chew ice is particularly associated with iron deficiency, and Pica can sometimes occur alongside deficiencies such as iron or zinc.

It can also be connected with pregnancy, developmental conditions or psychological and behavioural factors. So rather than thinking, “What a strange habit!”, it is worth asking: Why is this craving happening?

From a homeopathic perspective, unusual cravings are also fascinating because what a person craves can form part of their individual symptom picture.

Have you ever come across Pica in practice or family?

These words appear as the motto of Samuel Hahnemann’s Organon of Medicine. More than 200 years later, they still feel wonderfully relevant.

Homeopathy asks us to observe, question, stay curious and keep learning - to look beyond the obvious and understand the individual person in front of us. And perhaps that is one of the most beautiful things about studying homeopathy.

Dare to know. Dare to ask questions. Dare to learn something new.

Feature Friday: Kali phos – The Mind Nutrient & Burnout Buffer ⚡
Kali phos is your go-to when your emotions and nervous system is running on empty.

🎯 Teen overwhelmed by school, screens, or social pressure?
🎯 You feel mentally fried, but still can’t sleep?
🎯 Restless baby won’t nap and seems overstimulated?
🎯 That “on edge” feeling you just can’t shake?

This salt supports exhausted nerves, mental clarity, emotional balance, and restorative sleep.

✨ It’s the remedy for overwhelm - whether it’s coming from your work, your toddler, or your teenage hormones.

Kali phos: the salt of brain cells, nerve strength, and steady moods. Gentle for little ones. Grounding for stressed-out adults. A favourite for students, parents, and anyone feeling stretched thin.
Vital for forming new neural pathways, so not only is this a stress reliever, but it enhances our ability to learn! This one was so useful for me when i was studying, not just for exam stress, but for preventing that physical discomfort that comes from trying to pile too much new information into your brain (a very mineral intensive endeavour! )

Replenish what stress, overwhelm or intense study has drained, naturally.

Save this for your emotional first aid kit, or when you have a bout of study to conquer 😊

More UAE patients are turning to homeopathy for mental health support as it offers a holistic, low-risk alternative to conventional treatment. Experts like Dr Yasir Shafi and Dr Harkirat Singh Wilkhoo highlight that homeopathy addresses both mind and body, focusing on emotional triggers and overall well-being rather than just symptoms.

Used alongside conventional care, it has shown benefits for anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and even behavioural issues in children. With minimal side effects and no dependency, homeopathy promotes emotional balance, better sleep, and improved quality of life through natural, integrative healing.

Study: Arnica and UV Damage.
Research has shown that Arnica Montana 30C can reduce DNA damage caused by ultraviolet radiation in bacteria, partly by up-regulating nucleotide excision repair genes and easing oxidative stress. While the findings are intriguing, the study was conducted on microbes rather than humans and did not fully account for homeopathic principles such as the effects of overdosing. Still, it offers further laboratory evidence of activity in potentised remedies.

Everyone should have homeopathic arnica in the house. Especially if you have children!

Sports injuries are one of the most common reasons people seek homeopathic care.
From acute strains and sprains to repetitive‑use injuries, homeopathy can complement recovery by supporting tissue healing, easing discomfort, and helping the body settle inflammation naturally.

Here are some of the most commonly used remedies:

- Arnica: traditionally used after impact, bruising, or overexertion
- Rhus tox: for stiffness that improves with movement
- Ruta grav: for tendon and ligament strains
- Bryonia: for sharp pain aggravated by movement
- Symphytum: traditionally used to support bone and tissue repair

Homeopathy works alongside the body’s own repair process, offering gentle, holistic support for athletes, gym‑goers, and anyone staying active.

🧠 MYTH: “If my blood test shows normal minerals, I’m not deficient.”
❌ False. Blood levels ≠ cellular levels.

Here’s the truth:
🩸 Blood tests only measure what’s circulating in your bloodstream, not what’s actually inside your cells, where minerals need to be active.

Take Potassium for example, "Approximately 98% of the body's potassium is located within cells. The remaining 2% is in the extracellular fluid, including the blood."

And guess what?
Your body will sacrifice your tissues to keep blood levels stable.
So by the time a deficiency shows in your bloodwork... it’s often been going on for a while at the cellular level.
While this may not mean you are chronically or dangerously deficient at this point, it is very likely you have gone months or even years with annoying symptoms that just seemed to keep getting worse.

Here’s where tissue salts come in:
They’re designed to restore mineral balance inside the cells, via the blood - where the real work happens:
- enzyme activation
- tissue repair
- nerve transmission
- emotional regulation
- energy production

You can have symptoms of deficiency, even with “normal” labs.
That’s because symptoms show up as soon as your cells aren’t functioning properly, even if the bloodstream looks fine.

Your body speaks a subtle language. Symptoms will appear (the canaries in the coal-mine, the bodies messengers that something is going wrong), visible signs will show in the facial skin and tongue, and you might see changes in urine or mucus.

Cell salts help you listen early, before dis-ease sets in.

Ever had “normal” labs but still felt off?
In this age of empty mass-produced foods, it is highly likely you experienced a mineral deficiency or imbalance.

A little bit about us...

The Irish School of Homeopathy has been teaching homeopathy in Ireland for over 35 years. But we're not a huge college - and we don't want to be...

We love the fact that we know our students. We know their names, their stories, their strengths and sometimes even what's happening at home! Our classes are small, friendly and personal.

Our tutors are experienced practising homeopaths who bring real cases, real experience and plenty of stories into the classroom.

We study together at Griffith College in Dublin, with the option to join classes live online when getting to Dublin isn't possible. And... because we know life doesn't always go according to plan, classes are recorded too.

But there's something else that's difficult to put into a course description...

The community.

Students arrive from different parts of Ireland and World, different careers and completely different stages of life. They come together because they share one thing - a genuine interest in homeopathy. Friendships form. Confidence grows. People support each other. And quite often, students tell us they didn't expect to learn quite so much about themselves along the way.

Some come simply wanting to learn more. Others arrive knowing that they want to become professional homeopaths. Both are welcome!

That's us. Small, experienced, a little different - and very proud of the community we've built🩵

If you’re thinking about joining us this September, we’d love to welcome you and let you experience it for yourself. Only 6 places are now available on our Professional Course for those ready to take the next step towards becoming a professional homeopath.

Could one of them be yours? Contact us.
