Zincum Metallicum
About Hahnemann’s Remedies
The following remedy listed below is one of the most commonly selected by the animal’s I work with, including my own, as their constitutional remedy to help them heal. To provide some perspective, there are over 1,000 remedies available as a result of Dr. Samuel Hahnemann’s amazing contribution to us all. This is one of the main ones which keeps coming up for use with the animals where chemicals have been used. I have, therefore, provided the profile of this remedy for the pet owner to understand what each is “solving”, working on in the body from an animal’s perspective. Not every symptom may be apparent in your animal, but a lot of them most likely are. Your animal’s subconscious directs the remedy required, the strength, and the dose via muscle testing. This is how I come up with the suggested remedy. Dowsing confirms this, as well as the animal themselves.
Remedy Profile
The reference I am using is Boericke’s New Manual of Homeopathic Matera Medica with Repertory by William Boericke. Therefore, I have gone through the remedies profile and pulled out what I think is pertinent to the pet parent in relation to what they may be witnessing in their animal.
About Self-Selection
The animals know. Whenever I am offering a remedy to an animal, and this includes via their pet owner, I always ask them first, do we have the right remedy to help you? They will let you know. They are very clear. Teeth clenching; leaving the room, going under the bed, hiding, means no! Check again. It is of utmost importance to engage the animal in their own healing. They, without a doubt, know what they need. They just need a facilitator, someone to work with them, not dictate. Dictating will not heal anything from my experience, just “muddy the healing journey” so to speak. Once the animals know you are truly listening, their direction heightens, and I am sure their healing ramps up mapping this new-found mutual respect too. Last night my Flat Coat Retriever, came and told me she needed a dose of Rhus Tox. After I asked her a few questions, and she consented to the remedy once prepared, I received a lick to say thank you, and off she went to bed. Before this though she was literally following me at my heels. So, the animals are very clear when they know you are listening.
ZINC | Zincum Metallicum
MAIN ATTRIBUTES | Acts on the brain and spinal system where there is intense twitchings and unrest in the body, the animal cannot sit still, never at peace.
ABMS Observation | Any being who has been heavily vaccinated – even just the one set of shots when they were born, will need this remedy to help clear the damage. The ears always are inflamed, the upper jaw impacted, and the skin, with hair loss. This remedy encompasses a lot of the toxins being used on our animals and ourselves, it digs deep into the body to help the body flush the unwanted, usually heavy metals I am finding.
Symptoms may be presented as:
Mind | Very sensitive to noise. Weak, may be labelled stupid.
Head | Bores head into things. Forehead cool but base of brain hot.
Eyes | Itchy and sore lids. Red and inflamed, conjunctivitis.
Ears | Painful, external swelling, discharge pus.
Nose | Sore.
Mouth | Teeth loose, gums bleed, blisters on tongue.
Stomach | Can not eat fast enough; nausea, vomiting of mucous. This is an indication of leaky gut.

Extremities | Soles of feet sensitive. Lameness; weak, twitching of muscles.
Sleep | Jerking movements during sleep; wakes themselves up, disorientated. Cries out during sleep unaware of doing so. (Personally, I think this is a result of nanographene oxide strands in the brain)
Fever | Feet hot and sweaty. Shivering down back.
Skin | Feels like bugs crawling on skin and therefore, itches. Focus of distress thighs, hollow of knees, legs. Eczema.

Disclaimer
I am not a trained homeopath. Everything I have learned is from my homeopathic vet, and my own animals. I have been using homeopathy personally for over 15 years now. And I have hired many different practitioners for my own animals, observing what works and what does not. I have to say – nothing so far compares to muscle testing the being’s system to find out about what the being needs. All remedies may be purchased at local health food stores.
