SSRIs and Vulnerable Patients

Let’s talk about the difficult topic of those taking antidepressant drugs (ADs), in particular the Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) and the emergence or worsening of suicidal ideation in “vulnerable patients.” However, it is still suggested that you use these drugs anyway?! Across the globe, ADs, especially SSRIs, are among the most commonly prescribed medications...

Trauma Bonded In Canada: Healing Beyond the Margins (Short Stories)

Allyson McQuinn, DMH, JAOH has done it again! This is book number twenty five! Writing in a completely different genre in literature, McQuinn furnishes the reader with short story vignettes of the traumas she experienced in Canada. The first story begins in a school yard marred by violence just outside Montreal, Quebec, all the way up to being a practitioner of natural medicine in Ontario and being forced out of the province if she didn’t comply with the government condoned College of Homeopaths...

Dear ,



Are you suffering from depression? Do you know where it stems from?  Does the prospect of going into November, December, and January feel gutting to you, given the lack of daylight? Have you wondered if you have Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)?

This month, we’re looking at the true meaning of depression, as well as how taking SSRIs is pretty much like putting a bandaid on the elephant’s hiney. Also, those labels are missing the mark. To get to the root cause, we can do much better than labels and suppressive chemicals with ill side effects.  You can actually read what our patients have said about their Heilkunst treatment, as it relates to their depressive state, in the first article.

Please know that you’re not alone.  Both Jeff and I (Allyson) have suffered depression in the past, and we understand the anatomy of why it plagues a good portion of the population, especially in these times.  Whether you’re 7 or 77, we have a great compliment of homeopathic remedies to help you, or a loved one, and a process to get the job done systematically.  You don’t even have to rip that bandaid off the elephant’s tuches in the process - that will just be a natural side benefit.

Love,

Ally and Jeff

What's The Root Cause For Depression And How Can Heilkunst Help To Solve It?

So what is depression anyway? Well first of all, let’s look at the word itself. ‘De’ is to take away, or define as negative, removing something. ‘Press’ is a bearing down sensation. ‘Ion’ is really the sensation. Put the etymological pieces back together and you have the sensation of something being taken from you, while leaving you feeling like a pressure is bearing down on you. Ugh!...
