PLAN B Natural Health

A diagnosis of cancer is something that fills most people with dread. The shock of diagnosis is often ignored in the rush towards the conventional cancer treatment pathway, especially with the new phenomenon of 'turbo cancer'. Before you've caught your breath from diagnosis, the MDTs are choosing and driving your treatment plan, with little time to consider the person on the receiving end.

And this is where the homeopathic consultation reigns supreme - it creates the space to express your self; to hear your voice, concerns, fears and anxiety, as well as your experience of diagnosis. Homeopathy recognises you for the unique person that you are - as well as your unique symptoms and experience of them. Most of all, Homeopathy is the art of perceiving your body's language via it's chosen symptoms, which are messengers from your body that it needs help to do what it can no longer do.

Fear is inextricably linked with cancer, and the language around it demonstrates this. A doctor's delivery of diagnosis should be done with care and compassion, including the words chosen to do so, because words have the power to heal or harm. This is why I always start a consultation by talking about the diagnosis process, and addressing the shock to unlock your healing journey. Until this happens, the body will remain on red alert - in reaction mode - and unable to begin to acknowledge how you go to this point. At Plan B you will find a safe and private space for you to share your story.

As the oncology conveyor belt kicks in, my clients say they feel like a cog in a very well-oiled wheel, with clinicians and consultants reducing the process to stats and percentages. This is because medical science loves a number! The MDT practitioners perform their specific roles - with little or no time given to a holistic overview or treatment.

Those that find their way to me often say that it feels like an opportunity for change; an opportunity to hit the pause button and hear the body's message. Some people have even said it's as though the body has gathered all the stress and conflict into a ball (tumour) to be dealt with. I think that's very profound and why it's important to remain a co-driver in your cancer journey as opposed to being a passenger. You always have a choice in all that is offered to you, it just doesn't feel that way, because fear based medicine seeks to control outcomes based on stats and percentages. But you cannot measure the human spirit and incredibly strong will to live - I've learned never to bet against that!

My learning and experience has led me to believe that cancer is a journey, and is the best your body can do at that time to catch your attention. Believe it or not, cancer is benevolent - despite the limiting and fear-based language used by the media and conventional medicine. I take time to review how you got to this point, and to reframe the process, acknowledge the fear, and help you to turn a new page - and perhaps - rewrite the story of your life.

There is a huge emotional and psychological element to cancer. There is a reason why tumours occur in certain parts of the body. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, certain organs relate to specific emotions and conflicts. Suppressed emotions and trauma are factors that your body - and cells - don't forget, and even bridge one or more generations in a family.

I first learned about what is known as the New German Medicine over 20 years ago, which helps to identify how specific conflict and trauma impacts certain parts of the body. This is where Homeopathy comes into it's own - it can help people become aware of and resolve trauma to help the body move through dis-ease.

Experienced Homeopaths are unbiased observers of your body's language - of which symptoms are messengers. We respect that the body has an innate intelligence that works in your interest 24/7, 365 days a year. Symptoms of cancer are a last ditch resort to get your attention - like a holler (as opposed to a whisper).
