Does anyone have information on this?

Javier S. Gamarra, a homeopathic physician from Curitiba (Brasil), has developed a new method of remedy preparation called Special Dynamization (SD). Gamarra treats many cancer and AIDS patients, and he claims his method, developed in the early 1990s, gets results when low centesimals or LMs do not help.

Interesting question about potentisation, sorry I don't know the answer.
cib, just wanted to let you know that the Udo's oil you sometimes recommend to patients contains rosemary oil [a new development]. Rosemary oil contains considerable amounts of camphor. Hope that is useful.
All the best, Anna

Dear Anna,
Thanks about the Udo's Choice oil, I shall be checking into it. It seems perhaps too many things are being combined in it now. Because it is pricey I have recommeded to some to buy flax seed oil instead, but again it must be refrigerated and used within six weeks so only buy a small amounts at a time.
Carole

Dear JVolkman (Joy?)
Yes, from a long time back you always know exactly where to find and how to get the pertinent information.
Thanks

Have you seen this guy's Homepage? Beats me when he has time to treat MANY cancer patients and MANY AIDS patients. Sounds like he's more into experimenting with and promoting his new theories. Then again, maybe it's all gone over my head, maybe the Special Dynamization potencies are for Special homoeopaths who treat Special patients (maybe even Special millenium children) and get Special cures. I wish he'd stick to his Theoretical Ecology stream.

Thanks JoyV, You always manage to help out with a website.

Interesting news Carol. What is your opinion of this as a Hahnemanian Homoeopath? I'm really interested to know. Chris does not find it too impressive I can see.

Regards,
doctorleela

Dear Cib,

In elastic container you can not raise the potency.

Dynamization could only be possible with glass friction.

The process which you are telling us is called dilute of potency and not raising of potency. It is same as LM.

One can adopt any process of dynamization by adding 999 drops of solvent or 10000 drops of solvent. It will definitly act. But the process was adopted by Hahnemann. If somebody is adding 115 drops instead of 99 drops for centicimal scale. What name you will give to this process?

Doctor Leela,
In answer to your question I offer these observations:
Hahnemann was always experimenting to see if he could improve the remedies and the potencies.
To follow Hahnemann means to follow Hahnemann. It means to follow his method of always experimenting.
Hahnemann showed evidence for his results.

If the method is working, evidence will show that, but that evidence is only anecdotal. Only when it's tested and found working by other homeopaths can it be established to be authentic.
Criticism, based on prejudice, instead of science, is not homeopatic, and will never be.

Suspicion is not really justified everytime one sees something that differs from what one already believes. True belief comes from accurate knowledge and experience.

How do you REALLY know that it hurts to hit your thumb with a hammer? Only by experiencing it by hitting one's own thumb!

Hahneman's method was to test the remedies on himself. If you do this you will get stronger in your belief and full knowledge of the effects. If it works properly you will get healthy in body too.

To criticise is justified after personal experience.

When you follow Hahnemann's method of experimenting as outlined in ORGANON, it is homeopatic by definition.

Dear jshah,

Could you explain this sentence a bit further.

"The process which you are telling us is called dilute of potency and not raising of potency. It is same as LM."

I don't see the SD process as anything like how Hahnemann prepared his dynamized LM potencies as per instructions in Aphorism 270, 6th edition Organon.

Dear Carol,

Thank you so much for your opinion. I agree, and feel too that its best to find out the clinical efficacy of this potency first.

MAybe he will post cases that show the imporvement desired. Hahnemann was always searching for something better!

WArm regards,
doctorleela
