Expectant mothers can say goodbye to C-section,courtesy homeopathy

These days a majority of deliveries take place through the caesarean section,but if an expectant mother starts taking homeopathy medicine a week before her delivery,then she can be saved from caesarian. Revealing this,Dr Mohinder Singh Singh Gujral,Assistant Director Homeopathy,Punjab,said,”Keeping this in view,the Homeopathy department of the state government has started ‘Training of Trainers’ programme. In the first of its kind,this five-day programme started at Lord Mahavira Homeopathic Medical College in Ludhiana.”

Dr Gujral said,”This programme has been sponsored by the Central Government and a grant of Rs 5 lakh has been issued for the five-day training. It has been observed that more than 80 per cent deliveries are done by caesarean section. But if some medicines,which are quite safe are prescribed by a Homeopath,are given to the expectant mother 10-12 days before the delivery,she can be saved from caesarean section. We are imparting training to all the Homeopathic practitioners in Punjab. While practical training is being imparted by the gynaecologists of Dayanand Medical College and Hospital and Guru Teg Bahadur Hospital.”

He further said these master trainers will further train the Homeopathic practitioners of government dispensaries in Punjab along with para-medical staff and members of NGO who are interested in learning about mother-child care. He said,”All the districts will be covered under this programme by the year 2012,however,the first district level programme will be held on December 17 at Jalandhar.”
