Homeopathy At Home with MelissaAuthor: Melissa Crenshaw, RsHom, LCHE, IBCLC
I am a Registered Homeopath and Lactation Consultant who loves Jesus and believes in the power of prayer in healing and restoration. God designed our bodies to heal themselves. We interfere with the bodys abilities by introducing medications which stop the action our bodies were made to do - heal! Homeopathy comes in and stimulates the immune system to help the body remember how to heal itself. ALL people are welcomed here, no matter your beliefs! I discuss mostly homeopathy here, but also I bring an encouraging word from the Lord and touch on the topics of parenting, homeschooling, marriage, and nutrition. Welcome to my world! Its a beautiful, healthy life! Language: en-us Genres: Alternative Health, Education, Health & Fitness Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

A Practical Homeopathy Playbook For Impetigo Relief
Episode 11
Monday, 24 November, 2025
Send a text to Melissa and she’ll answer it on the next episode. A tiny “bug bite” turns crusty overnight, new spots appear by morning, and suddenly you’re cleaning, covering, and googling. We’ve been there. Today we walk through a clear, calm plan for navigating impetigo at home—what it looks like, how it spreads, and the step-by-step care that actually helps.We start with foundations: how broken skin from eczema or scrapes lets common bacteria like staph and strep take hold, why impetigo progresses in stages, and what a realistic timeline looks like for families. Then we share the remedy framework we rely on: a baseline of Hepar Sulf 200 and Antimonium Crudum 30, pain and itch relief with Hypericum 200 and Arsenicum 200, and stage-specific support using Rhus tox 30 for early blisters and Graphites 30 when lesions ooze and crust. Along the way, we talk about signs of progress—less spread, better energy, thinner crusts—and how to taper dosing as comfort returns.Topicals can make or break recovery. We explain why drying oozy lesions speeds healing, how a light dusting of goldenseal powder can help crust and seal, and gentler alternatives like calendula powder, kaolin clay, or arrowroot for sensitive skin. You’ll hear practical tips for covering at night, preventing scratch-and-spread, managing hot spots like armpits and diaper areas, and using warm baths with calendula to loosen heavy crusts without pain. We also touch on when to loop in your doctor, how homeopathy can work alongside conventional care, and simple supportive choices like probiotics and vitamin C.If impetigo has your household on edge, this guide brings structure, choices, and calm. Listen, gather a short supply list, and move step by step through the stages with confidence.
