The Patient's Perspective
Allyson McQuinn-Glatt, Karen Wehrstein
People undergoing homeopathic treatment discussed their journey, with all its depths and heights, twists and turns, and answer your questions. This offered a unique perspective with patients telling practitioners how it is from "the other side of the desk." Allyson and Karen both have been through some amazing experiences and kept the attendees rivetted.

AFTERNOON:
Homeopathic Myths
Rudi Verspoor, DHM(Pract), CCD, RHom
The author of Homeopathy Re-examined discussed commonly-held myths in traditional homeopathy. Examples: homeopathy treats the patient and not the disease; treating the symptoms or constitutionally cures the patient, including their chronic miasms; Hahnemann said we select remedies based on the totality of symptoms; Hahnemann was a vitalist and taught about the vital force; homeopathy is the name Hahnemann gave to his system of restoring health; and more!
"The Family Reunion"
JoAnn O'Connor, DIHom(Pract)
JoAnn round out the weekend with a story/scenario, filled with clues and hints at remedies-acute, constitutional and miasmic-needed by the characters!
But the Program isn't all...
There were a wide variety of EXHIBITORS selling items both necessary and fascinating.
The NUPATH Conference tradition of plentiful DOOR-PRIZES, generously donated by our Exhibitors and Sponsors, continued. As well this year there was a SILENT AUCTION for big-ticket items, all proceeds to NUPATH.
