Bericht: RS.
Fall: 31/2 Jahre altes Mädchen mit
ausgeprägtem Albinismus, albinistischem Augenhintergrund, Nystagmus und
Schwachsichtigkeit zu Behandlungsbeginn.
Die Haare waren sehr hell, die Augen rot,
die Haut ebenfalls hell und durchscheinend. Im Laufe der Behandlung hat sich
eine deutlich dunklere Haarfarbe vom Haarboden angezeigt; durch die
Augenfachärztin konnte eine deutliche Einfärbung des Augenfundus von der
Peripherie her festgestellt werden mithilfe des Dreiwinkelglases, um die
Fundusperipherie innen an der Irisgrenze zu sehen. Fotografische Aufnahmen des
zentralen Fundus haben
in der ersten Zeit keine Farbveränderung
gezeigt. Es ist verständlich, dass die Fundusperipherie zuerst eingefärbt
werden muss, da ja die Metallwirkung auch von der Peripherie zum Zentrum hin
angeregt wird.
Nach der durchschnittlichen Therapiedauer
von 6–18 Monaten bleibt die verstärkte Pigmentierung im Auge und
an den Haaren bestehen oder muss
vielleicht nach 1 Jahr wieder angeregt werden.

The skin functions to protect the body from injury, light, chemicals,
extreme temperature and from invasion of micro-organisms and is responsible for
the maintenance of a stable and harmonious internal environment and has the
closest connection between the inner being and the outside world. The skin will
often be an outer reflection of internal problems and must be treated as such.
Orthodox medicine classes the different skin disease according to histological
changes occurring in the skin tissue. This approach ignores to a large extent
the idea that skin problems can be manifestations of internal problems and
should be treated as such and not as local phenomena. Most of the chronic skin
conditions that affect humanity are the result of internal processes and
causes. As our skin is our interface with the world, it is often the site to
manifest disharmony in one’s life (Hoffman, 1997:78-79).
Skin eruptions are nature’s way of quieting an internal disease, which
threatens vital organs, by developing an external malady. The homoeopathic
remedy brings out the reappearance of skin eruptions, and many forms of
suppression. It is important to allow internal disorders to be discharged
through the skin, rather than suppressing them with treatments directed at the
skin.
In addition to purely mechanical protection, the skin also seems to have
a specific biological function, designed to protect the internal organs from
disease agents.
By virtue of its chemical composition, the skin may possess the function
of removing toxic substances introduced into the body (Ghegas, 1994:A139;
Watson, 1991:91).
The skin consists of a superficial layer, the epidermis (stratum
corneum) and a deep connective tissue layer, the dermis. The fascia, lying deep
to the skin consists of the superficial and deep fascia.
The superficial fascia, ext. between the dermis and underlying deep
fascia, contains fat, sweat glands, blood and lymphatic vessels and nerves,
whereas the deep fascia is thin and is loosely attached to the superficial
fascia and adherent to the underlying muscles, hence the periosteum of bone.
The above structures are essential to hold the other structures or parts
together and protect against infection by providing a barrier (Moore, 1992:33).
The normal pilosebaceous unit is made up of sebaceous glands, a
rudimentary hair, and a wide piliary duct lined with stratified squamous
epithelial cells (Cooley et al., 1998:38).
The pilosebaceous unit is composed of a hair follicle, the sebaceous
glands and the products of these structures: hair and sebum. The sebaceous
glands and follicular epithelia are responsive to circulating androgens and
direct androgen stimulation with resultant sebaceous gland enlargement (Lassus,
1996:341).
According to McBride & Simpson (2000:8), 95% and 83% of 16 year-old
boys and girls respectively are affected, and the increasing numbers of
patients in the over - 20 age group are being referred for specialist opinion.
Significant lesions are also present in 1% of men and 5% of women at the age of
40 years. The prevalence of acne is similar to those 20 years ago; however it
is milder in teenagers and is involving an older population who has high
expectations of treatment. Brown & Shalita (1998:1871), agree that acne is
a disease of adolescence (between 15-19 years). The incidence peaks at 18 years
and improving around 20 years. Some have acne between 24-29 years, sometimes
continuing into the 3rd and 4th decades. While acne can’t
be regarded as life threatening, affected individuals experience diminished
self-esteem, depression, frustration, social withdrawal, embarrassment and
physical scarring.
Sebaceous gland: An exocrine gland in the dermis of the skin, almost
always associated with a hair follicle, which secretes sebum (Tortora and
Grabowski, 1996:G47).
Seborrhoeic dermatitis: A chronic, superficial, inflammatory disease of
the skin characterised by scant, loose, dry, moist, or greasy scales, and by
crusted pink or yellow patches of various shapes and sizes (Odom, James, and
Berger, 2000:214).
Sebum: Lipid rich secretion from a sebaceous gland (Graham Brown and
Burns, 1996:7).
Acne, is the common condition of spots
with recurrent often itchy, round and red thickened areas of the skin, which
may become infected and chronic. It is common on the face, but may also occur
on the chest and back or in any greasy areas of the skin.
The condition is harmless and although the cause is still not clear, it
is thought to be related to hormonal changes, or to a diet that is too high in
sugar. It is a distressing condition, as people are preoccupied with their
appearance (hair and skin). Any form of spot or blemish may become a source of
teasing or shame, embarrassment or awkwardness (Smith, 1994:6).
Acne vulgaris is an inflammatory condition of the hair follicle and its‟
sebaceous gland is characterized by comedones, erythematous papules, pustules,
nodules and cysts (Kaminer & Gilchrest, 1995:S7).
Some dermatologists consider acne to be one disease, whereas it
constitutes a spectrum, in its severity, in the type of lesions present and the
site involved (Cunliffe, 1989:6).
There are many microorganisms involved in the pathogenesis i.e.
Propionibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Malassezia furfurbut
Propionibacterium acnes (= P. acnes) is the most important one, thus
many therapies have been designed to reduce the amount and function of this
organism (Sommer et al., 1997:211).
There are many forms of orthodox treatment for Acne vulgaris, which
often results in many side effects and resistance to therapy, but no cure is
offered thus there is an obvious need for alternative forms of treatment to be
investigated i.e. Homoeopathy (Barklie, 1999:4). With Homoeopathic treatment,
the patient is assessed at all levels
i.e. physical, mental and emotional, thus recognising the patients
individuality, in the hope of a more successful management of acne
(Chatterjee,1993:1).
Herbal remedies have been used for many years in the treatment of Acne
vulgaris but they have only recently been clinically tested (Barklie,1999:2)
and can be an effective adjunct to homoeopathic simillimum treatment.
One needs to bear in mind the patients health and allopathic medicines‟
side-effects (numerous and troublesome and the result of many failures in
treatment) since these
need to be treated first before treating acne itself (McDavid, 1994:32).
Master (1993:354), states that acne vulgaris is one of the problems for
which patients seek alternative treatment and often consult with the
homoeopath. Several studies been conducted on acne vulgaris.
McDavid (1994) investigated the effectiveness of homoeopathic simillimum
in the treatment of acne vulgaris and had found that there was a statistically
significant improvement in the clinical manifestations of acne vulgaris (p =
0.006). The frequently indicated remedies were Sulphur iodatum and Kalium bromatum.
Lee (1997) investigated the role of a homoeopathic complex (Silicea
30CH, Selenium 9CH, Hepar sulphuris 30CH, Kalium bromatum 9CH, Arctium lappa
3CH and Pulsatilla 30CH) in the treatment of acne vulgaris. The results showed
no significant improvement over the period of 5 consultations within and
between both groups. The effects of Kalium bromatum, used by McDavid (1994),
were further elaborated upon in the above research.
Van Niekerk (1999) investigated the effectiveness of miasmatic treatment
as compared to homoeopathic simillimum in terms of the objective clinical
findings in patients with acne vulgaris. There was no statistically significant
difference between the 2 treatments but both were significant in reducing the
clinical manifestations. The above research was an extension of McDavid’s
(1994) research and further elaborated on the effect and importance of
homoeopathic simillimum.
Barklie (1999) investigated the effectiveness of a homoeopathic complex
(Silica terra 30CH, Natrum muriaticum 15CH, Sulphur iodatum 15CH, Kalium
bromatum 9CH, and Selenium 9CH) as compared to a herbal complex (Arctium lappa,
Berberis quifolium, Echinacea purpurea and Taraxacum officinale) in the
treatment of acne vulgaris in terms of its clinical manifestations. It was
found that there was no significant difference between the herbal and
homoeopathic group hence both were effective. In the homoeopathic complex used,
the 2 commonly used remedies in McDavid‟s research (1994) was used and
elaborated on and the knowledge of these remedies was further investigated.
Lee (1997) Used in the herbal-complex the remedy Arctium lappa was used
by, thus further being an extension of the previous 3 studies.
Although this herbal-complex (Arctium lappa, Berberis aquifolium,
Echinacea purpurea & Taraxacum officinale) has been used for acne treatment
prior to this, it has not been compared to homoeopathic simillimum before, and
Barklie (1999) recommends that this complex be compared to homoeopathic
simillimum for acne vulgaris treatment.
The above treatments have all been useful and successful in the
treatment of Acne vulgaris. This research incorporates the findings of the
above 4 trials, mostly complementing Barklie’s research (1999),
as the same herbal-complex was used, in order to further investigate its
role in the treatment of Acne vulgaris. This study also further investigated
and extended the role of homoeopathic simillimum as investigated by McDavid
(1994) and van Niekerk (1999).
Sewsunker (2003) did a concurrent study on Acne vulgaris at the Durban
Institute of Technology-Steve Biko Campus Homoeopathic Day Clinic, which
compared the effect of homoeopathic simillimum to miasmatic treatment in the treatment
of Acne vulgaris. Miasmatic treatment in homoeopathy is based on the assumption
that there exists in virtually everyone an inherited or acquired energy
blockage or disturbance producing a predisposition towards a particular and
recognizable pattern of illness (Watson, 1991:41). In patients with a chronic
disease like acne vulgaris, it would mean that there is an inherited or
acquired tendency to develop this disease and this predisposition must be
treated in order to cure the patient. The prescription is either nosodes made
from disease products or miasmatic remedies. Sewsunker‟s study will be an
extension of and further reinstates van Niekerk’s research but, that trial will
further use the data from this research to ascertain and compare which treatment
is the most effective in Acne vulgaris treatment i.e. homoeopathic simillimum,
herbal-complex or miasmatic treatment.
A search of the indexes of Medline (1993-2002) and British Homoeopathic
Journal (1982-2002), LINKS (1987-2002) revealed no comparison being done on
homoeopathic simillimum and a herbal complex (Arctium lappa, Berberis
aquifolium, Echinacea purpurea and Taraxacum officinale) in the treatment of
acne vulgaris thus stressing the need to compare the effectiveness of a
herbal-complex (Arctium lappa, Berberis aquifolium, Echinacea purpurea and
Taraxacum officinale) to homoeopathic simillimum. This study was aimed at acne
vulgaris specifically, between the ages of 18 and 40, as a chronic condition
and other types of acne were excluded.
The Magnifying Glass Cure: (from Robin Murphy’s lectures). Using a small
magnifying glass, concentrate the sun’s rays on: melanoma, birthmark, warts,
cysts ulcers or varicose veins until a burning sensation is felt, then stop. Do
this 1 - 2 daily. Do it about two weeks.
[Dr. J. Rozencwajg, NMD]
Organotherapie:
The skin is the largest organ and widely considered as being the 3rd
kidney, it is been used for removal of toxic substances through perspiration.
As we will see when it comes to drainage, perspiration can be used to palliate
a poor function of the kidneys.
Sometimes the skin has to be repaired too.
Calendula is the best if not the only herb known as
having the dermotropism needed and the ability to accelerate healing; it can be
used externally in local applications, ointments, creams, liquids and
internally as a tea, a tincture or a homeopathic potency.

[E.B. Nash]
In Erysipelas: Cantharis vs Apis
In erysipelas, Cantharis is sometimes the best remedy, and choice has to
be made between it and Apis, which also sometimes has great urinary irritation
in such cases.
Apis more oedema. Cantharis more blistering.
Apis not restless and complaining; Cantharis is uneasy, restless, dissatisfied,
distressed, sometimes moaning or violently crying; wants to be moved about
constantly.

In all eruptive illnesses ending in suppression, a dose of Zinc-met.

of serious aggravation, which a Zincum patient may not be able to stand.
[Matthew Wood]
Large leaves are a signature for the skin and the lungs, because the
vegetative process of breathing, called transpiration, needs a large surface
area and this is analogous to the large surface area of the skin needed for
perspiration (similar to transpiration) or of the lungs, for breathing. Thus,
mullein, coltsfoot, burdock, comfrey, and horseradish are used for the skin
+/o. lungs. Lungwort has a peculiar signature for the lungs: it looks like
someone has expectorated gobs of mucus on it. The rhizome of pleurisy root
looks exceptionally like the terminal buds of the alveoli, the terminal buds of
the bronchial tubes. Lobelia seeds have air inside them -giving them an uncanny
feel- indicating a relationship to trapped air (asthma). Onion and garlic have
hollow tubes, like the bronchial tubes, while Calamus looks like a trachea and
is a great remedy for tracheitis (= Entzündung der Luftröhre).
One time I read in “Adam and Eden” that sage was good for skin
conditions that looked like wrinkled like sage leaf.

"Oh, ridiculous," I thought to myself. 6 months later I had a case just like that
and couldn't think of anything except sage. It worked perfectly, and has always
worked on what is called 'lichenification' in dermatology -- skin looks like a
sage leaf. This is particularly common in woman and sometimes men, in the
decline of life, from the fifties onwards, when the vital juices are drying out.

The first 21 year period is the Spring of one’s life. This is the most
active growth period.
The Summer of one’s life occurs between the ages of 21 and 42 years.
Just as the height of the sun’s light and heat occurs during the summer, this
period is one’s prime.
The Autumn of one’s life comes between 42 and 63 years of age. It is
during this time when the body’s regenerative capacity slows down.
Within each season of life “life-forces” are called upon to assist us
with change. As we move from one “season” to the next, some of the
“life-forces” connected with the work of bodily systems/organs are liberated to
become available for use in another way. With respect to the reproductive
organs, the forces belonging to the uterus and ovaries are reflective of certain
cosmic forces (creativity/selflessness/being active).
During menopause, these forces are freed and made available for use by
one’s consciousness; women lose their physical reproductive capacity while
gaining renewed warmth of heart and sparkling creativity.
Why and How Does Our Skin Change
During Menopause?
The skin is metabolically teaming with life. As we age, the reproductive
rate of the skin slows down considerably. Blood vessels decrease in both number
and size, reducing the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the skin, thus affecting
skin color. The sebaceous (oil) glands tend to become larger and decrease their
secretions, resulting in a greater tendency toward dryness and pruritis
(itching).
Women in their 40’s and 50’s experience a decrease in collagen and
elastin production. Collagen provides the structure and cohesion of the skin.
Elastin provides resiliency, giving our skin its ability to bounce back. The
decrease in production means that the skin is less able to undergo quick stress
recovery and the ability to “snap” back into shape.
Estrogen keeps skin metabolically active, soft, supple and
well-hydrated. Before menopause, most estrogen is produced by the ovaries, the
rest by the adrenals and fatty tissue. Ovaries also produce testosterone.
After menopause, estrogen is produced by fat and the adrenals. In most
women the amount of estrogen decreases by half or two-thirds. Testosterone
decreases slightly; thus the proportion between estrogen and testosterone
changes. Reduced estrogen levels cause a decrease in the thickness and
suppleness of the skin. The comparatively higher levels of testosterone can
create more facial hair and increase the size of the pores. Testosterone can
alter the balance of fatty acids in the sebum causing the sebum to become more
sticky and lead to clogged pores or the return of acne.
Cosmeceuticals - Too Good To Be
True?
We are overwhelmed by messages that tell us how to fight the natural
aging process. Holistic perspectives can become clouded as women search for the
high-tech prescription that will turn back the ever-ticking biological clock.
The first line of Dr. Nicholas Perricone’s best selling book The Wrinkle
Cure states: “Wrinkled, sagging skin is not the inevitable result of growing
older. It is a disease, and you can fight it.” Baby boomers have heard this
battle cry and have run to the nearest cosmetics counter demanding
high-performance, multifunctional products that deliver fast results - victory
in the war against aging. Cosmeceuticals promise this victory.
The term ‘cosmeceutical’ was coined for skin care products that promise
benefits beyond basic hygiene. Cosmeceuticals imply a fusion of cosmetics and
pharmaceuticals that target the symptoms of aging skin, claiming to alter the
skin’s appearance, reflecting a symptomatic, short-term perspective that
promises instant results. The trouble is this approach fosters a dependence on
external, often costly measures and may have negative side effects. Witness the
incredible popularity of Retinol and alpha hydroxy acids still appearing in
anti-aging products despite the known drawbacks: increased sensitivity and
susceptibility to sun damage, plus research now reveals long-term, harmful
effects of chronically degrading the epidermis.
Making Peace with Your Changing Skin
The skin is a complex, multi-functional organ that deserves respectful
care if it is to afford us health and beauty for the long term. There are
several things we can do to maintain a youthful look, while contributing to our
overall health:
Foods and Supplements: fruits and vegetables contain antioxidants that
have been clinically proven to help prevent and heal sun damage to the skin.
Since antioxidants work
in concert with each other, the greater the variety of fruits and
vegetables you eat, the better. They are also rich in fiber and, please, make
sure that you’re getting enough of it (nothing shows up on the skin faster than
chronic constipation). Add 1/8 cup of ground flaxseed to your food regimen each
day. In addition to 11-plus grams of fiber, this amount of flaxseed is loaded
with skin-beautifying omega-3 fatty acids and phytoestrogens. Fish (salmon wild
caught only/sardines/swordfish) are rich in the omega-3 fats also, which are
important for building healthy cell membranes everywhere in the body. Eggs,
preferably fertile. Do not overcook; ideally, yolk should be runny. Herbs and
spices [cumin/basil/oregano (one tablespoon of fresh oregano has the same antioxidant
activity as one apple)/rosemary), Yogurt (organic, whole-milk yogurt is best),
plenty of Water and a good quality Tea.
Supplementation with antioxidants: Coenzyme Q10, vitamin C, vitamin E,
proanthocyanidins (from pine bark or grape pips), and alpha-lipoic acid are
particularly important for healthy skin.
Skin Care Products: Wonderfully effective, alive and truly full of
blessings (for us and for our planet) are skin care products manufactured by
Weleda, Dr. Hauschka and Argital. They offer a natural, holistic alternative to
the use of cosmeceuticals.
Regular Facial Treatments: During and after menopause, the natural
ability of the skin to exfoliate slows down, and with less estrogen and more
testosterone pores may become more clogged. Proper intensive, yet not damaging
exfoliation, done with herbal steam and aromatherapy compressing, is very
important at this time (Dr. Hauschka Classic Facial Treatments). The Lymph
Stimulation that one receives during a treatment is particularly supportive in
assisting the skin to rid itself of the metabolic wastes and encourage
harmonious functioning. Lymph stimulation also promotes cleansing and
strengthens elastic fibers in the connective tissue.
And, of course, the benefit of a quiet time, set apart for oneself in a
peaceful and nurturing space, is also worth the praise.
Last, but not least, whenever possible let the early morning sunrays
shine on your face for 10 -15 minutes, while you’re not wearing sunscreen or
sunglasses.
From a holistic standpoint we understand that skin care is not just what
we put on our skin, but how we take care of ourselves in all ways. Wholesome
nutrition, enough sleep, regular exercise, good skin care regimen, fresh air
and the right attitude can help to put our best face forward. Being alive,
authentic and radiant in the present moment is a powerful cosmetic!
[Irina Segal]
Sun Light and Summer Skin Care
It is absolutely imperative not to sunbathe in the midday sun. Keep in
mind that ultraviolet rays can penetrate clothing and windows. Be sure to wear
tightly woven clothing during the midday hours and apply sunscreen under it to
increase protection.
On the other hand, “a little natural light, on arms and legs for twenty
minutes a day with no sun block, may be beneficial.
Caution: be sure it’s early morning or late afternoon sunlight. Studies
show sunlight can be beneficial for everyone our bodies (women: vitamin D is
manufactured in when sunlight reacts with the cholesterol found in the skin).
Cancer specialist Joanna Budwig, M.D. utilized sunlight as part of the
treatment program in her Natural Cancer Clinic in Europe. Studies in the U.S.
and the Sovjet Union have documented that women living in areas with the most
hours of sunlight have markedly lower rates of breast cancer. Sun exposure
links to a reduced rate of breast cancer. Vitamin D also helps to balance blood
sugar, build healthy bones and is important for preventing osteoporosis.
Skin cancer is of concern, so moderation is key. However, the increase
in breast cancer and other cancers dramatically exceeds that of skin cancer.
We know O, one of the most abundant materials on earth and in the
atmosphere, is essential to life. Yet both the sun and O are major contributors
to free radical damage, the prime cause of aging and disease in the human body.
Free radicals roam the body causing change, sometimes good (interfering with
viruses and bacteria) and sometimes bad (disrupting our cell structures and
functions).
When they are working against us, free radicals have the same effect on
our cells as rust has on cars. People who have been exposed to long-term sun
tanning show signs of premature aging on their skin, due to the breaking down
of collagen, the protein substance in the skin that gives it elasticity.
Repeated sunburns and overexposure to the sun increase the risk of skin cancer
(fair coloring). The destruction of the ozone layer intensifies the negative
effect of direct exposure to the sun, please make frequent use of hats and
umbrellas, and, once again, stay away from the sun during the hottest time of
the day.
