This is an excellent, practical guide for parents searching for ways to manage their children's acute conditions at home. Dr. Haskell also covers ways to prevent illness and to optimize a child's overall health. Dr. Haskell is a licensed Naturopathic Physician and with 30 years of practice has seen over 1,000 infants, children and teens. 'I've seen homeopathy work miracles but I believe much more needs to be done these days. It requires a broader, more inclusive approach.' For this reason, in addition to the use of homeopathics for specific acute conditions, Dr. Haskell has included other chapters on the use of hot and cold waters (hydrotherapy), botanicals, supplements, nutrition, environment insults, emotions and a child's sensitive gut ecology. Dr. Haskell believes it is time to bring healthcare home by empowering parents with the information and tools they need to take care of their children.
