Dr. Stine Ruge

Abstract

What role can homeopathy play in modern childbirth, and how might it contribute to a positive birth experience?
Drawing on ten years of clinical practice in obstetric homeopathy, this presentation explores these questions through case examples and clinical reflections. With labour and birth as its primary focus, it examines challenges that arise as labour unfolds and the application of individualized homeopathic care in these situations.
The presentation will also consider care during pregnancy, exploring how addressing miasmatic difficulties before labour begins may contribute to preparation for birth. Particular attention will be given to clinical observations concerning the potential of homeopathy to support physiological labour, prevent complications, and increase the likelihood of a spontaneous vaginal birth.
The cases will provide an opportunity to examine the possibilities and limitations of homeopathic care and identify questions for further scientific investigation.
