March 12, 2024#56 Dr. Amber Petersons on Suppression of Symptoms
Today we are joined by Dr. Amber Petersons, a member of our team at Resilience Naturopathic. We talk about what “suppression of symptoms” means and how we factor this into the homeopathic healing journey.

The difference between suppressing symptoms and palliating symptoms

How suppressing symptoms can affect the healing trajectory

When suppression or palliation may be necessary, even amongst the homeopathic healing journey

How the body can suppress or “bury” symptoms under a more complex state and how this shows up as “return of old symptom” in homeopathic healing

How addressing symptoms early on with homeopathy can prevent more complex chronic disease

Suppressive vs. Curative

An analogy to explain that healing vs. suppression is like putting out a fire
