Great news of the day: Adorable 4-year-old boy on the spectrum, under care for two month, is suddenly able to run much more normal! Previously he would run lopsided and as if galloping. Now he is moving much more evenly, although his left side is still a bit weaker. This dramatic change was just noted over the past two weeks. He has had a constitutional remedy and we're working through one v-remedy for the past month.

Good news of the day: 4-year-old girl on spectrum who hated showers is now requesting them! Remedies have included Ignatia, Ultrasound and Ibuprofen. It seems her sensory processing has improved :)

05/23/2024

Very interesting news of the day: No more drooling! 16-year-old boy with developmental challenges and a lifetime of drooling esp when concentrating or upset has essentially stopped drooling!! Only rarely now if he is really upset. Amazing. He took Lyssinum as a constitutional remedy which dramatically helped him in other areas as well, but the drastic reduction in drooling I thought was quite a good win also!

Homeopathic vitamin K helps again: 5 month old baby who developed increasingly severe eczema after two weeks of being born, has been relieved with homeopathic vitamin K! He had been great after birth until he had the vit K shot after which he became drowsy and could not latch properly anymore, which was the clue. No baby vs given. Also became constipated, now moves his bowels if he has homeopathic vit K and homeopathic ultrasound on the same day.

05/17/2024

Mind-blowingly good news of the day: 7-year-old girl who has been under care only since January and who could not walk independently at that time and was only able to pull herself up on furniture like a 10-12 m old baby and take a few independent steps with parents or teachers close by. This progress has been incredibly slow to gain over 7 (!) years. Now she is suddenly walking all by herself with good posture and speed for significant stretches! No wobbling, good balance and looking strong! Mom sent video, everyone is stunned, including her teachers. On top of it, is she stumbles she now giggles and thinks it's funny, whereas before she would have had an epic meltdown. Vitamin K in homeopathic form was the starter remedy, now we added one made from her baby vs and one from ultrasound as well. This child had a lot of problems from birth which made me think of the vitamin K. I think the sky is the limit for this beautiful little girl!

05/14/2024

Good news of the day: Pre-teen old girl who had trouble focusing because she heard hundreds of other conversations from other people in her head is completely relieved of this symptom after a couple of doses of homeopathic Cannabis indica 200C. It would be very distracting for sure to have to pay attention to so many other conversations!

05/07/2024

Great news of the day: 7-year-old girl on spectrum is continuing to make gains with homeopathy, mom reported that she can now ride her bike around the block on her own, can swim well and has become much more affectionate: "Her affection towards my husband and I has been through the roof. She is hugging us with real intention and warmth now. I feel like we've been catching up for lost time!"

Good news of the day: 4-year-old boy on the spectrum has responded positively on just Sulphur 6C every two days for two weeks with the following improvements:

- More actual play - bf he was mostly just climbing nonstop.
- More frequent and voluminous bowel movements plus some formed stools, before they were only mush.
- Better gait and balance, more fluid walking and less toe walking.
- A few consonants in his babble, d, t, m, y, maybe mama sounds.
- PT reported more awareness and safety while climbing, using his arms in a better way
- Used a fork to eat strawberries, did not use utensils before.

I chose Sulphur because it seemed to be a constitutional remedy for him. Pretty impressive results after only two weeks!

Good news of the day from one of my dear colleagues who took my professional course on success with the special remedy Cerebellum 3C. Boy with sensory processing challenges, Cerebellum 3C 3 times a week for 4 weeks:

"Today on camera he burst out 'that remedy makes me so happy' and his sound and light sensitivity greatly improved, along with his writing, but what I found interesting is his mood really improved. Mom says he is less shy, more outgoing, and the first dose of cerebellum he said 'it’s the best I’ve ever felt'".

What a great response to such a simple little remedy!

Good news of the day: 8-year-old boy on spectrum who was shouting and jumping almost continuously, as well as spitting everywhere, including in people's faces, is much improved after Hyoscyamus and Ultrasound 30C! No more spitting on the floor or in people's faces, now only on his shirt sometimes and he is now taking breaks between jumping and shouting sessions after less than two weeks of US 30C, whew.

Who Will Care for Adults With Autism When Their Parents No Longer Can? 04/23/2024

For all autism parents - please read this post. Polly Tomney and others are creating a community on 40 acres near Austin, TX, to help adults with autism.

“What we are doing in Austin is, we’ve managed to have 40 acres donated to us” by a local church, with the goal of “building … a place where a family can live together.” She said this community has attained 501(c)(3) status and will be largely self-sustaining.

“We’re doing little Airbnbs and things like that to raise the money so we can live. We grow our own food,” Tommey said, noting that this was accomplished despite opposition from the local community.

There is a whole interview on Spotify.

I will check them out, I think what they could use are expert homeopaths like the ones taking my training now to work with them on site. What do you all think?

Who Will Care for Adults With Autism When Their Parents No Longer Can? Polly Tommey, program director of CHD.TV, joined “The Defender In-Depth” to discuss the exploding number of children with autism, how society will care for the children as they reach adulthood and their parents can no longer care for them, and what she and other parents are doing to provide for ...

Interesting news of the day: 10-year-old boy with long-standing, pretty severe attacks of rage against mom got a remedy, had a bit of an aggravation and then proceeded to pretend to perform surgery on mom's brain and heart to erase all the bad things he did to her! He had never done that before! You never know what can happen with these remedies!

Shared from my dear colleague, Muhammed Rafeeque:
"We often see many people suffering from serious diseases in spite of following healthy lifestyle and living methods. The reason includes mainly the inherited disease tendencies from parents. There was a time family-disease-history was never considered important in medical practice. It was Dr Samuel Hahnemann who gave importance to family-disease-history in treating a sick individual. Gregor Mendel, who is considered as the father of Genetics, conducted his experiments between 1856 to 1863, but Hahnemann had already published his first edition of Organon of Medicine in 1810. Later he gave more details through other editions of Organon and also through his writings on chronic diseases. Unfortunately, the name of Hahnemann is not included in the modern medical texts because of one "mistake" done by him: Homeopathy!
Let's remember the greatest person in the Medical history on the occasion of his birthday. World Homeopathy day wishes to everyone 💐💐💐

Great news of the day: 5-year-old girl with an autism diagnosis, just celebrated her 5th birthday with 15 friends, had a wonderful time, enjoyed the presents and much more! She is also becoming a math whiz and can already count by 2s and 5s and asks how much 5 times 20 is and much more!

Funny news of the day: Almost three-year-old boy who had been waiting for an autism assessment for many months had the assessment last week - after taking homeopathic for some time, including a little clearing remedy from some of his baby-vs, and - wait for it - had the best day of his life just in time for the assessment! Mom said he was so connected, loved every task and collaborated easily. He did NOT receive an autism diagnosis needless to say :)

03/19/2024

Great news of the day: 7-year-old boy on spectrum, under care for one year, has now been invited to go into a regular ed math class for 20 minutes a day! Teacher said he is behaving so nicely and participating in circle time as well. A year ago this boy was banging his head 50-100 times a day, was aggressive and could not concentrate. He still has a way to go but has definitely come a long way over the past year!

03/13/2024

Great news of the day: Little girl who used to have a meltdown if she got water dribbling over her face in the pool now thinks it's funny after taking a homeopathic version of vitamin K 12C for a couple of weeks! She has generally developed more of a sense of humour since taking it, including having a very hearty laugh!

03/08/2024

Great news of the day: 9-year-old boy on spectrum (barely anymore though) suddenly wanted to sleep with 3-4 blankets piled on himself, plus several layers of clothing on. He also wanted to have piles of clothes on his bed next to him and was very angry and rigid. Mom decided to give Placenta humana (a remedy made from the placenta), as she already knew about it.

"Within 10 minutes, he not only calmed down, but joy filled his being, he became affectionate and guess what…removed the 3-4 layers of clothing that he had on! I was able to clean his room and remove the layers of bedding and piles of clothes that he previously wanted in his bed the night before. He slept soundly!
The next day and days after, we’ve noticed more speech attempts, and the EASE of his speech. He has also been playing with toys more and shared toys with me as if he’s showing me his items (brand new!)."

Think of placenta if a child is overly attached to and/or wants to cover him or herself with blankets, sometimes even over the head! The placenta in utero is like a nice, cozy blanket for the baby. Many kids on the spectrum carry trauma imprints that happened during the pregnancy, Placenta can be one of the remedies that may be helpful to release such traumas.

Great news of the day: Adorable 4.5-year-old boy on the autism spectrum has improved in many areas after only one month on the Em-Em-Ar 30C and 200C (read between the lines please). He had vocal and visual stims which stopped completely and is no longer rigid with transitions, such as getting out of the house for kindergarten in the morning. It is easier for him to fall asleep and he no longer grinds his teeth and best of all, his parents have been getting 4-5 word sentences from him, before he only used one or two words!

My thoughts exactly. Do you know I'm planning to open an integrated school/therapy centre for children with autism in Pensacola, Florida? I am already in the process of buying a property there. The closing is March 8 as long as I can get the financing sorted. There have been a few roadblocks in that regard, but I will know in the next couple of days, otherwise I may send out an SOS with requests for donations or small loans to make up the difference, maybe you guys can help me? The property is only US $170,000, it's a one acre on a dead-end street, located across from a large elementary school.

We got a lot to learn...

Good news of the day: 11-year-old boy on the spectrum who has gone through many phases of unusual behaviours, has just recovered from one such phase: He used to spit into his hands and then lick up the spit. He also used to like to touch the back of the toilet seat and then drink water out of his hands after washing them. Which remedy do you think he got that helped?
If you have followed me for some time you will likely know which one :)

Our Story

Anke Zimmermann, BSc, FCAH, is a classical and modern homeopath who is passionate about helping families with challenging children.

Anke offers homeopathic care for children on the autism spectrum and with other neurodevelopmental conditions, sensory processing disorders, ADD/ADHD, behavioural and learning disorders, anxiety, aggression, OCD, epilepsy, tics, Tourette's syndrome and similar.

Children with skin conditions, asthma, ear infections, allergies, digestive problems and other common childhood ailments are also very welcome. Please note, homeopathic remedies treat the person, not the condition, there are no specific remedies for conditions. This is very different from conventional medicine, which prescribes drug for conditions rather than for the individual. Remedies work by stimulating the body’s innate healing mechanisms.

Anke is also trained in homeoprophylaxis, the use of homeopathic remedies to educate the immune system. Homeoprophylaxis can be useful for both children and adults.

She has been practicing since 1991 and has widely lectured and written about many topics in the natural health field. Her office is located in Sooke, BC, Canada.
