Do you know anything about white chestnut drops as a homeopathic remedy?

Question

My 20 month old daughter was prescribed white chestnut drops by a chiropractor who also pactices kineseology. Do you know what it signifies? Can they do harm?

Answer 1

It is for Excessive Worry

she probably told him in one way or another that she worries...

Answer 2

Please note that homeopathy only works by the placebo effect.

A 20 month old is probably too young to be fooled by such things.  The placebo medical effect is more probable in older brains.

Answer 3

You should not go to the chiropractor instead see a physical therapist or an orthopedist and also ask your primary care physician what he thinks of you going to a chiro first. Trust me he wont think much of him.

Most Chiropractors are crooks. Here is the truth about what they do. A chiropractor can do spinal manipulations to relieve stress on spinal nerves caused by things like muscle tension or a slight misalignment of the discs. The manipulation is not a permanent change of anything though, and no - they can't permanently change the natural shape or curvature of a spine. An orthopedist can evaluate the situation and determine if a scoliosis is actually present, and if a brace would be of help. A brace has to be individually fitted though- it's not a one size fits all proposition. A chiropractor can be helpful in musculo-skeletal aches and pains, through manipulation and massage- but aside from that it's all smoke and mirrors. If you have back pain from the misalignment, they can help relieve that. But nothing they do is going to be a permanent fix. Spines don't work that way. To change a spine takes surgery and braces. Most chiropractors are quacks and want to take a full body X-ray then proceed and having you going to them for a very long time. In my opinion they are a little better then a back rub. Also Chiro's do not have medical degree's I would not have him give me any kind of medication. He knows nothing about it and actually doesn't really believe in medicine.
