Before working with Shawna I felt extremely frustrated and confused about what to do for my son's hyper behaviour and difficulty focusing at school. It was very hard to communicate with him and really connect with him because it seemed like his mind was spinning so fast. After trying remedies prescribed by another health care practitioner, as well as other natural remedies we tried on our own, I didn't see any significant changes in his behaviour.  

Within 2 months of my son starting on a homeopathic remedy prescribed by Shawna I began to see significant changes in his behaviour. He was much calmer, didn't run around so much in the house, or do everything so fast without thinking. It has been 3 months now since he started the remedy and I can't even describe how pleased I am. I feel like I can actually connect with him now-it has helped our relationship tremendously. He is also focusing better at school. And of course there are no side effects from the treatment. Shawna has a sincere way of connecting with kids-and my son actually liked going to see her! My advice for anyone with a child who has symptoms of ADD or ADHD, is to seek homeopathic treatment with Shawna, instead of pursuing conventional ADD or ADHD drugs-there are just too many potential long term side effects.

My son Matthew was 3 years, 2 months when I brought him to see Shawna for the first time. Before working with Shawna, Matthew could be a very difficult child to at times. He was like a spinning top that never stopped. He would throw toys just for the fun of it, and yell for the sake of yelling. His speech was unclear, and he had no sense or concern about safety issues, such as running into the street, and staying with me when shopping. 

After our consultation, (which involved many, many questions about who Matthew is; my pregnancy with him, what he was like as an infant, his likes, dislikes, behaviours, sleep patterns, etc) we decided to go ahead and begin the treatment recommended by Shawna, which was just one little pellet at a time. As Shawna had told us, we didn't see overnight drastic results, but little by little, Matthew began to calm down and started behaving more like the little boy that God had created him to be. He began making more eye contact, and speaking more clearly. He also stopped throwing his toys and began playing with them more appropriately. He began to respond more positively when given directions. As well, now when Matthew needs to be put into a time out, he actually stays there! 

Matthew is now 4 years old and will sit for long periods of time working on puzzles and coloring, which I do not think would be the case had we not received treatment from Shawna. 

My advice for those thinking of getting this type of care is to go for it. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!

My son Jordan who is eight years old suffered with severe eczema, asthma and allergies to eggs, diary products, most grains and soya. We have spent countless dollars on creams, ointments, special soaps, inhalers, special foods to give him the best care as he grows. As we sought the medical care system, we slowly realized we were only treating the symptoms and not getting to the root of his issues. The day we decided to seek a homeopathic doctor was an incident at Jordan’s school where a fellow classmate saw dirt around his shoes and wanted to know if he was playing in mud during recess. He pretended that he was and but in actual fact it was dried skin flakes from his legs that was on the floor because of his eczema. He came home in tears and I knew we needed to find another way to help him.

A friend and coworker of mine shared about her homeopathic experience with Dr. Shawna and I decided to do some investigation on my own. I reviewed her website and was pleased by what I read and emailed her right a way. Within a day or two of my email, I received an email response from her as well as a phone call booking our consultation appointment. The day of our appointment she took great time and care to explain what was going on in his body and how we were going to “attack the root” instead of “treating the symptoms”. It was reassuring and confirming that we were on the right path in helping him get to a place of healing. I learned a lot that day and knew that it would be a long road ahead for him. As she indicated to us, “it will get a lot worse before it gets better. His body is healing itself from the inside out.” She gave us our remedy and three delicious recipes to try at home.

I wish I could say that things were rosy after our first few initial visits, but as she indicated things did get worse before it got better. If anyone knows about eczema, there is a lot of itching, scratching and crying because your skin feels like it is on fire. We began using organic shea butter and oatmeal baths, which seemed to give him some relief as well as his remedy. One of the ways we gauged his progress was the fact that we had to change his bed sheets everyday, because of the terrible flakes that would come off his body. His eczema was on his neck, arms, waist, legs front and back all the way down to the tips of his toes. As days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months we had our good days and bad days with his eczema, but the one thing we started noticing first was his asthma attacks had dropped quite considerably and no hospital visits. This was the first time in five years since being diagnosis with asthma. The itching and scratching had lessened quite considerably and changing his bed sheets every day turned into changing it every week and a half. He is also taking soya milk, which is something he was allergic too prior to homeopathy. To date he has gained 5 pounds and 2 inches since starting his treatment with Dr. Shawna. We have been going to Dr. Shawna for five months now and have made more strides with her, than eight years with conventional medicine.

If you are thinking about homeopathy as a way to help with your healing process please do not hesitate to go down this route. Some things to think about when deciding, this is by no means is a quick fix especially if you are an eczema patient. It will get worse before it gets better, but if you do persevere as we did you will see the results. As I tell folks if you are renovating a house it will become quite messy, dusty and chaotic for some time but you will enjoy the benefits of your labour once the renovation is completed. Same analogy with our bodies, there will be some discomfort in the short term but in the long term, there will be long last results. Thank you Dr. Shawna for helping us with our son, we appreciate what you do!!!!
