Acne is a common ailment that the majority of Teenagers face during their puberty years. Their parents consult doctors and a variety of drugs including Antibiotics are prescribed which usually arrest the ailment but this is only temporary and good as long as they are on the drug but the ailment soon returns as soon as the course is completed.
The remedy which has helped many is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily and also applied directly on the face. This topical application must be done without contaminating the contents of the remedy in the bottle by poking fingers into it and is best done by pouring out some of the remedy on to a saucer and wetting the fingers in it for application to the lesions.
The majority of patients have reported that the lesions usually dry out in 3 days and the ailment is usually cured in a week. It is necessary however that the patient takes the remedy but just once daily for at least 3 months as there is a tendency for it to return otherwise.
The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
Order the remedy in a 5ml Alcohol pack aka Liquid Dilution in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
If this is not available the Dry dose in pellets may be use but this is not as effective as the remedy in the original Ethanol pack
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle or 5 Pellets and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.
I’m one of those people who has adult acne. Unfortunately I also had it as a child which left many scars. I wanted to try the wet dose arnica treatment. I live in England and we have very strict regulations on accessing herbs. So I can only use the 6c pills which I’ve diluted in 500ml bottle and I’ve been drinking 2 capfuls a day first thing in the morning. I’ve also ordered Silicea 6x for the scars.
My acne is hormonal, so I get it once a month, particularly on the chin and jawline but also get plenty of blackhead which sometimes get infected and become painful. These are leaving horrible marks on my face. Will the above help with that? Someone has recommended I take the herb Agnus Castus which helps balance hormones. But you have said not to take anything else whilst doing the arnica treatment. What should I do? Please advice.
Thank you for your help.

Interesting to note that you are treating yourself with Arnica 6c in the Wet dose and you state “I’ve been drinking 2 capfuls a day first thing in the morning. I’ve also ordered Silicea 6x for the scars.”
This does not conform to my therapy aka “Joepathy” and you are advised to follow the instructions copied below which were formulated many years ago and which have helped many.
The remedy is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily and also applied directly on the face as often as is possible to keep the lesions damp.

You can get the Liquid Dilution from
Ainsworths Homœopathic Pharmacy
36 New Cavendish Street, London W1M 7LH
Tel 020 7935 5330

Hi Joe, thank you for your response and the referral.
I’ve tried Ainsworths and they’ve got two liquid dilutions 33% and 96%. Which one should I get?
Thank you in advance.
Preethi
Preethi
I use and recommend the 87% product and am surprised that they stock the 96% proof product as this is unusual as it tends to evaporate rapidly. If they do not stock the 87% you can get the 33% as it will be necessary that you use my therapy for some time into the future.
Thanks, Joe. I shall order that on Monday.
I’m still wondering about the fact that my acne is hormonal and I have a few appearing once a month. They don’t just come all the time. Is the arnica treatment going to correct the hormonal imbalance?
Secondly, I’ve been reading about a number of people using homemade Silica solutions on the abchomeopathy website and having worse skin than before. Is this what happens when you start taking silica. I’ve ordered Silicea 6x but have not started taking it yet as I’m concerned. I want to take it for the scarring. What are your thoughts?
Thank you
Preethi
Preethi
I do not advocate using Silicea 6x freely as it is a deep acting remedy and can affect your body in ways that can be harmful.
Stay with the Arnica 6c and proceed as instructed.
Joe, I’ve now received the 33% dilution. How many drops should I use as this is different to your 86% dilution.
Thank you
Preethi
Preethi
Please follow the instructions to make the Wet dose of any remedy as outlined in my post of April 12.
You will use just 3 drops in a 500ml bottle of spring water.
You will also apply the solution directly on your face as often as is possible.
YOu will stop the Silicea for the moment and when the lesions dry up which they usually do in a week I shall then give you instructions on the next step.
Exercise is essential and you will drink at least 3 liters of water daily.

Your wife should most likely be able to overcome her Acne by using my therapy copied below:

Savio
Please read my prescription and follow my therapy precisely as prescribed.
Savio
You can give your sister Arnica 6C in the Wet dose for her dry skin and the cracks on her soles.
The remedy water can be directly applied on her dry skin wherever she has it and it should help to reduce the dryness of a skin and the cracks on her soles should also disappear in about 3 days.
She will however have to take Arnica for life at a reduced dosage in about 2 weeks time.
Report progress in a week.
Savio
Use Arnica 6c orally and apply it topically at the same time for best results.
Savio
It is very likely that you suffer from Hyperacidity or Gastritis, aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease) and I shall copy my default therapy that has helped hundreds of patients to overcome this disease for which doctors usually prescribe PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) drugs which are dangerous and can cause many other more serious problem when used in the long term.
You will hopefully discover that my therapy aka “Joepathy” will help you within the hour after you have taken your first dose after a meal.
The remedies you will order are as follows:
Nat Phos 6x dose 3-4 tablets taken immediately after each of 2 meals
Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily.
Please observe the following simple rules:
Do not eat large meals. Eat small meals but more often if you feel hungry. Do not drink more that a few sips of water after your meals. This is to prevent the further dilution of your gastric juice which can then reflux into your Esophagus which results in GERD.
It is important that you do not go to bed for at least 2 hours after dinner as food will take about this time to digest and it is best to stay awake and upright to enable your food to digest before going to bed.
No fatty food, alcohol, coffee, preserved meats like sausages, ham, bacon as they contain Saltpeter which will antidote the remedies listed immediately.
If you suffer from a stomach ache or you feel your stomach puffing up before a meal during the day between meals, this is usually due to hunger pains, caused by your gastric juices attacking the inner lining and the wall of your stomach. The simple remedy is to eat some food like a biscuit or a banana between meals to keep the gastric juice away from digesting the stomach wall which results in a stomach ache which in some cases can be acute.
You must drink at least 3 liters of liquids, preferably water daily and you must also exercise for at least half hour daily. It is important to sweat it out as this is all part of my therapy to overcome GERD.
The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
Order the remedy in a 5ml Liquid Alcohol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.
It is understood that the patient will stop all other drugs which s/he may be taking for this ailment.
Savio
I have checked back on the questions that you have posed and I discovered that you have asked me for help to prescribe for your wife, sister and now yourself starting from June 22.
It surprises me that you have not reported on their progress nor have you ever said “THANK YOU” for all the patient assistance I have given you and your family so far.
You now presume that you can post on my website and expect me to answer an inane question:
“Thanks a lot. but how long do i have to take nat phos 6x and arnica 30?”
I see that you have said a word of thanks in your statement for the first time but in a very off handish manner.
Do you seriously expect me to PREDICT the answer to your question when you have not indicated that you have used my therapy and reported your response?
You must understand that I too and a Human Being 83 years of age, and am doing a service to suffering humanity with my Joepathy.
You are warned that if you persist in your present attitude I will be compelled to DELETE all your posts on my blog.
You will also STOP addressing me as Joe.
You will hereafter address me as SIR as I believe I am old enough to be your grandfather.
Savio
Although I do not usually lose my temper especially to patients, I felt that you were one that was taking advantage of my kindness and piling one case after another without acknowledging whether or not my therapy had worked for you and others who were using it.
I hope that you will remember my advice to you for life.
The short answer to your question is:
For as long as you feel that the 2 remedies are helping you.
I have personally taken Arnica 30c in the Wet dose nightly for 17 years and you can also follow my example if you wish to live longer than 83 years without any medical problems.
Savio
Please read my prescription of June 1 where I have given you full instructions on using my therapy which I can see that you have not even started to use so far, even after I gave you one warning on your abuse of my therapy.

Hello,
I am currently taking a homeopathic regime for the eczema on my hands, which I have had for years. I am taking Sulphur 200c, Arsenicum Album 30c, Petroleum 30c, Kali Mur 6x, and Urtica Urens Q (wet).
I have had acne on face and back for over 10 years (since teenager) I am now 31. Since having a baby it has gotten a bit better, probably b/c during breast feeding the monthly cycles stopped and hormones were more even. Now I have gotten menstruation again and acne is back on my jaw line, chin, and some forehead, also on upper back.
I read your advice on Arnica and am wondering if I can take the Arnica at the same time as the other medicines for my eczema. If so, should I do it at the same time or take Arnica at a different interval. Should it be before or after meals?
Thank you.
Jess
The remedy for your Eczema and your Acne is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose which is made up as follows:
Order the remedy in the Liquid Dilution in Alcohol in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.
Take a capful of the remedy water twice daily and also apply the water on your lesions as often as possible.
You should observe some improvement in your condition on about the third day into this therapy.
It is understood that you will not take any other drug or Homeopathic Remedy while using the Arnica therapy.
Please report your response on the third day.
Thank you so much for the prompt response!!! I appreciate your time.
That is very interesting. I have asked the Homeopathy company and they sell the Arnica in 87% or 20%. I think I saw another post in which you said the higher one is better. Is this correct?
Should I abruptly stop my other treatment regime or do I need to slowly come off?
Take care and thank you again.
Jess
The higher level of Ethanol is the better product although it will evaporate faster.
Please explain
“Should I abruptly stop my other treatment regime or do I need to slowly come off?”
This is what I stated in my prescription to you yesterday:
“It is understood that you will not take any other drug or Homeopathic Remedy while using the Arnica therapy.”
Thank you. I will be ordering my Arnica and let you know when I start. Have a great day and thanks again!
I’m not sure bid my last post went through. I am on day three of Arnica 6c for acne and ezcema. No major changes yet. I am not
Seeing any breakouts, but around time if my cycles I will see. Face still has bumpy texture. I am not able to keep face wet with the solution all day due to work schedule. Thank you.
Jess
Continue with your therapy and all will be well, hopefully.
It will take some time for your face to get smooth after perhaps years of infection with acne. The main need today is to prevent fresh outbreaks and you must continue the therapy without any let up.
Dear Mr. Livera,
Thank you very much for your response. I was also wondering if it matters whether I take the Arnica before or after meals and if I can still have coffee. In the past I was told to take some homeopathic remedies either 15 minutes before food or to wait 30 minutes I’d I have had coffee. Do you have any advice on that?
Take care,
Jess
Jess
You must understand that you cannot have it both ways.
Coffee is known to ANTIDOTE Homeopathic remedies and it is up to you to poison yourself, if you are the standard American Coffee Addict, to continue doing so and discover only too late in life that this addiction can KILL.
It is not impossible to visualize that your Acne is an allergy caused by coffee.
You may like to know that Tea is absolutely OK.
Hi Sir Joe

Should I follow the same therapy mentioned above?

Dear Sir, thank you for advice. I have been confused by opposing views on coffee. I have tried to cut back. I uses to have one cup coffe each morning. I have started green tea several months back, alternating with coffee. I have been attempting to improve adrenal health. I have also cut back on dairy. Would love your thoughts on fermented dairy, dairy, wheat, etc. I am American, but married a South Indain and am learning many ways to cook traditional Indian foods. We are vegetarian, but eat dairy.
Best,
Jess
Jess
Just ONE cup of light Coffee in the morning may not disrupt the Homeopathic protocol. My remarks about the use of coffee in the US were more directed to the coffee addicts who would consume over 10 cups daily. This would surely poison their systems causing various after effects which are best avoided.
There is no restriction on “fermented dairy, dairy, wheat, etc.”
Sausages, Ham and Bacon are also taboo due to their Saltpeter content.
I am from India male 24 yrs. I have been suffering from acne since a very long time Since puberty. I get acne vulgaris on my nose Cheeks and lower part of my lips and some rashes on my back. I heard homeopathy is effective at treating acne at root cause. I have read on the net to take echinecea q and have also purchased it. Recently in one forum I have great comments from user regarding Arnica 30c which you have advised. Can you please let me which will be more favourable from the two above in my case? And is Arnica 30c and Arnica Mont 30 the same?

Sure Mr. Joe i will order it right away but is Arnica Mont 6 same as Arnica 6c.
Allen
YES
Thank you
Mr Joe I have seen a good improvement lately. Acne seems to dry up. No new outburst seen till now. Thank you for your advice. I would like to know if there is any remedy for the acne scars. I have some month old and some new acne scars on my face. Can advise me something.
Allen
Glad to note that in just 4 days you have experienced relief:
“I have seen a good improvement lately. Acne seems to dry up. No new outburst seen till now.”
I hope that you are aware that no other Homeopath will ever recommend Arnica for Acne as all classical homeopaths are taught to only use the remedies that are listed in the textbooks they study in their colleges.
In my case however I have developed a form of therapy which the classical homeopaths derisively classified as “Joepathy” as I do not abide by the classical rules but use standard Homeopathic remedies that all homeopaths use. I do however achieve a better rate of CURE of various diseases which leaves the classical types jealous that I have cured while they keep on milking their patients with a multitude of remedies which is good for their own business but not for the poor patient who has to cough up their fees which in some cases can exceed $1000 per visit, as related to me by a close friend who is a famous Homeopath practicing in the US.
In my case I treat everyone free of charge through my website and here in Sri Lanka where I live as Homeopathy to me is only a Hobby to which I am passionately dedicated at my advanced age of 83 years.
You will have to be patient with your Acne Scars for which there is a remedy which I shall prescribe when I am certain that your Acne is cured.
In the meanwhile you will take the remedies I have already prescribed daily till further notice.
You will report your progress from time to time and I shall advice you.
OK sir I will keep on updating you with my results.
Hi Mr Joe,
I have used arnica 6c fro almost 2 and half week.there is tangible improvement on my face and fore head.
Please now suggest me further in this regard.
Thank You.
Ahmad
Glad to learn that in a few weeks your Acne has responded to my therapy aka “Joepathy”.
There is absolutely nothing more that I can add to my therapy to CURE your Acne.
It would be of interest to learn in what period of time did you first notice that your acne responded. From reports I have received from other patients they first noticed the first signs in 3 days.
I shall be interested in your report for purpose of record with a detailed report of your ailment, how long you have suffered from it and what drugs you have used, if any with your response to them.
Hi Mr Joe
In first week,I did not feel any affect on my face.But after second week there a considerable difference than before.
I have used following homeopathy medicines before:
Natrum Mur 200
berberis aquifolium Q
Nux Vomica 200
Sir,now please suggest me further that what should i do next?
Ahmad
You will NOT use any of the other remedies you listed in the future as you have already discovered that they did not help you at all.
You will continue to take Arnica 3c in the Wet dose but in a reduced dosage of just one cap full which you will take nightly. You will only apply it on the face whenever you notice any new pimples starting up which you will discover will be very rarely.
You must exercise and drink at least 3 liters of liquid preferably water daily.
Dear Joe,
I am writing to report my status having been on your standard acne treatment (Arnica 6c) for approximately 6 weeks. I have noticed some improvement, but seem to be a standstill now. Some breakouts seems to come on cheeks and chin. Also, skin colored or whitish bumps are scattered along jaw line into cheeks.
I should also note that my eczema is slightly improved but still dry and itchy on hands.
Is this common and should I just keep up my current protocol?
Thank you for your time.
Best,
Jess
Jess
It appears to me that Arnica 6c is not working as it has done for hundreds of patients.
Let us try Arnica 3c which you will use instead in the same manner and report progress in a week.
It should also help your Eczema better.
Thank you for your advice. I will purchase the 3c. Do I use the same method of 3 drops into 500 mL of water. Two caps per day?
Best,
Jess
Hello Joe,
I have been reading through the posts and find the suggestions very interesting.
I am an adult approaching late 30’s and have been battling acne for past 10 years or so. I find most of it is on my lower cheeks and jawline and neck. From what I have read it seemed to point to hormonal issues.
I have tried numerous therapies and nothing seems to be working.
Arnica is something I haven’t tried and I am interested. I live in Canada and wondering if you have any suggestions on where I can purchase the liquid form. I have no problem getting the granules. Is there a reason why it isn’t as efficient?
I found one liquid form on a website in canada however it is made up as follows:
Active Ingredients: Arnica Montana (N) 6X.
Inactive Ingredients: Alcohol 18% v/v.
Would this still work better then the granules?
I am right now taking R53 by Dr Rechkeweg. I have been taking it for a week. Should I stop taking it before I begin the Arnica treatment.
Thanks,
Donna
Donna
It seems strange that at your age of 30+ that you suffer from Acne today.
I have helped many hundreds perhaps unknown thousands of patients to overcome their Acne with Arnica which is not a remedy that is recommended in the classical Homeopathic texts for this ailment which all of us at some early stage in our lives have suffered from which are usually not cured by the drugs in medicine and remedies in classical homeopathy which are prescribed.
Please follow the instructions below precisely as prescribed if you wish to be cured. You must get the Liquid Dilution which you can get in Canada from the same vendor of the Dr Recheweg product you mentioned which is usually in a 11ml glass bottle with dropper.
ACNE THERAPY
The remedy that has helped many is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily and also applied directly on the face as often as is possible to keep the lesions damp.
The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
Order the remedy in a 5ml Alcohol pack aka Liquid Dilution in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.
Please post your response to the Arnica therapy in a week.
I used to get the odd pimple from time to time however it was very controlled. I was on the birth control pill prior to my 30’s so perhaps it is somewhat related? It is since then that it has gotten worst as I described above.
I have ordered the liquid dilution and should have it tomorrow and begin my therapy. I will keep you updated.
Donna

Thank you for your greetings on my forthcoming 84th Birthday.
Update.
It has been a week since I start your the arnica therapy. The existing acne has been drying up and even old acne marks are drying up and peeling. I have had a few new pimples however I would say things are 90% better.
Should I be continuing with the original therapy for a longer time frame?
Donna
Donna
Glad to learn that your Acne, from which you have suffered for the last 10+ years, has dried up and you estimate that the improvement is about 90%.
You may not know this but I do not think that any other homeopathic consultant would have even dreamed of using Arnica in the manner that I prescribed it for you and CURED your Acne.
You are advised to continue to use the Arnica for the rest of your life but take just ONE dose nightly just before bed as I have done myself for the last 17 years. I have proved that Arnica is indeed a Miracle Remedy and you can read more about my research on Arnica on:
ARNICA THE MIRACLE REMEDY
http://www.joedelivera.com/?p=66
Report your progress from time to time to keep me in the picture.
I dropped down to single dose as suggested. I still get the odd new one however still much better then before. One thing I have noticed is I now am getting some smaller ones on my chest…could it just be pushing at a deeper level out? Have you ever seen that before?
I didn’t have any on my chest before.
Donna
You have to be patient and what is more is that you will take Arnica for some time into the future. Also apply it on your lesions and report your progress weekly
Sir, i had been using pulsitilla and hepta sulphuris pentarkan biochemic tablets for my acne.Is this sufficient for my cure or anything else should be taken to concern.My face is having red colour pimples all around.

I have started with your therapy using Arnica 6c in wet dose. Mr Joe I would like to know within how many days should I consume the wet dose of 500ml? I know the dosage is one cap twice a day but does keeping the water in the bottle for long time effect it effectiveness?
Allen
I do not remember prescribing for you and would like to know for what ailment you wish to take Arnica 6.
Is it Pimples?
If so please follow my therapy which I presume you have already read and also apply the remedy directly on the affected lesions on your face
Yes it was for acne. And is it okay to consume and apply the the wet dose after a week of it preparation?
Allen
If you make the Wet dose as instructed from spring water, it should last over a year.
Ensure that the remedy in the bottle does not get contaminated from any backflow when you take some out to apply on your pimples. It is best to pour out some water into a flat plate into which you can dip your fintertips to apply on your face as often as possible.
You should normally discover that the lesions will dry up on the third day after you start this therapy.
Report progress.
Yes it has started drying up after the first day itself. But I will give a detailed description of my progress as days pass by. Thanks for now Mr Joe.
Day 2
75% of the lesions have dried up and can see a very good improvement. Will continue this therapy and let you know further as days pass by.
Day 5&6 : Everything has completely dried. No new acne visible. Only scars are visible. Should I continue with the recommended dosage or should I reduce it?
Allen Dsouza
Thank you for reporting your progress of your Acne.
Your first post was I believe on the third day when you reported that the Acne was drying up and today on the fifth day all have completely dried up.
Such is the power of “Joepathy” .
You may now reduce your dosage of Arnica to just ONE dose per day which you can take at night before bed.

The remedy that has helped many is Arnica 6c in the Wet dose taken twice daily orally, and also applied directly on the lesions on the face or on the eyelids as often as is possible, to keep the lesions damp.
It is essential that the patient takes ONE dose of the Arnica 6c nightly just before bed for at least 6 months after the problem has been resolved as there is every chance that the lesions will return during this period, otherwise.
The use of a spray device into which the medicated water can be stored and can be sprayed on the acne lesions or the eyelids without directly touching them is best.
You will not take any drugs when you start my therapy.
The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
Order the remedy in a 5ml Alcohol pack aka Liquid Dilution in a bottle with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake it hard to produce bubbles. This is homeopathic succussion and must be done every time before a capful of the bottle which is the dose is taken as directed.
Do not use Coffee, Cola beverages, preserved foods like sausages, ham and bacon as they contain Saltpeter.
Please post your response to the Arnica therapy in a week.
Greetings Dr. Joe,
I am a 24 years old Indian, a boy. I have some post acne marks aka scars on my face left after suffering from Acne Vulguris for more than a decade.
I will be grateful to you for receiving response from you on improving my facial condition.
Curreny it is scarred on nose and cheeks with a slightly dirty looking appearence in overall as if I haven’t taken bath in days even just after a couple hours, to bath. I beleive my complextion can be improved as well which has gone down with this acne vulguris persistance for so long; It was considerably better earlier.
Regards,
Ronak.

You state that your face is ravaged due to Acne.
” I have some post acne marks aka scars on my face left after suffering from Acne Vulguris for more than a decade.”
Do you still get new lesions or pimples today?
Dear sir,
Thank you so much for being so quick responsive. I really appreciate it.
Yes I do get a couple of new pimples on face once a week otherwise clear but defaced of scars.
However, my back and chest still frequently breaks out and have not been clear since January 2013 as far as I can remember. Until a week ago I had been on sulphur for two weeks which did show immediate effects and made my back almost 95% clear of acne but then it mysteriously stopped responding during the second week and I got back to earlier condition. I am currently not on any medication.
Regards,
Ronak.

Dr. Joe,
Is the spring water a must thing in the remedy? Can’t we use mineral water instead?
About 95% of the bottled water brands available in India sell the so called mineral water only and the rest 5% are for spring water but only being sold in Nothern parts, that too are located with very much difficulty. So, apparently Spring water is not accessible to me.
Any advise would be highly appriciated.
Regards,
Ronak.

Spring water is water which is sourced from deep bore wells (DBW) over 200ft deep. This is a term used in the US to describe water from DBW which is usually pure and not chemically polluted
In India water is sourced from mountain streams or from DBW but you may use Tap Water safely after BOILING to release the Chlorine which will antidote the Homeopathy.
Dr. Joe.
Okay I’ll start the course from today. Got everything ready by now. Water, that I have boiled to make sure it’s perfect to use in homeopathy. Arnica 6C, here all the pharmacy say it is too low a potency thus not in demand so they don’t keep it. I had to buy a loose one then. However, the dealer is a prestigious one and assured me of not to worry about the intigrity of the solution – it’s pure and correct potency what I ordered.
Thanks for your time Doctor. I’ll keep you updated about how it worked on me.
Regards,
Ronak.
Hi Doc,
It has been a week now since I started taking 6c. For first 3 days I noticed the tip of the pimples started getting hard and eventually falling off while washing the face. The new pimples’ count was also slightly reduced. But later, like on 5th day the remedy apparently stopped working, I came back to getting same sized and number of pimples as I had before starting the course. Their drying out period is also got long as before.
Do I need to try some higher potency now? 30c?
Regards,
Ronak.
Ronak
I have prescribed Arnica 6c since the late Nineties and it has invariably worked wonders.
If you feel that the 6c is not working for you, I would suggest you get a new bottle from another source as it is possible that the product may be suspect.
Hi Dr. Joe,
my daughter has listed the following complaints…can you help?
Age 15
Irregular periods
Light colored vaginal discharge often
mild acne
stressed from school
She says she is not fatigued but always appears tired and introverted
frustration cannot do desired activities
enjoys sweets
Doesnt like hot days
Extremely Loves rainy, gloomy, thunder days
Thank you so much.
You are advised to consult a gynaecologist with your daughter as I am not qualified to help her.
You can however give her Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily and observe her response.
The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
Order the remedy in the Liquid pack in Alcohol, also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard at least 6 times before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this enhances the effect of the remedy on the user.

Hello – I am writing in regard to my 10 year old daughter who is suffering from acne consisting of mostly white heads (small and large). In the past year, her acne has gotten progressively worse. It has now spread from just her face to her upper back and chest area. We have tried so many different natural, as well as over-the-counter treatments, but to no avail. I read some previous posts back from 2006 in regards to treating acne, but it seems that your protocol has changed since then (If I’m reading everything correctly). Since my daughter is only ten (she has not started her menstrual cycle yet, so I’m not sure how much hormones are playing into this), I just wanted to double check with you in regards to the dosing. In most posts you say to use Arnica 6c, but then back in 2006 and a post on March 9th of this year, it says to use Arnica 30c. Can you please confirm which option I should use for my daughter and also confirm that this protocol is safe to use internally for a 10 year old. Thank you in advance for your time.
it is very satisfying for me personally to learn that my Website which I established in 2011 has served the purpose that I designed it to fulfil.
I have always been original in my thinking and in this case the use of Homeopathic remedies in a manner that does not conform to the standard therapy used by professional homeopaths, which I am NOT.
I am 85 years of age and this Science is only a Hobby to which I am dedicated and it seems to be serving its purpose as you for one, has reportedly studied it as you have quoted the 2 potencies I have prescribed for Acne, the 30c and the 6c.
In your daughter’s case at age 10, I would go with the 30c as the 6c may be perhaps a little too concentrated for her and I shall reserve it for future use if she does not respond to the 30c in a week.
Please read all references to Arnica 6c as 30c in my default therapy below:

wheredo you purchase the liquid dilution 30C
Don’t you think that you should indicate where you live and the name of the liquid dilution you wish to use, in your question to me?
Sir
I am 37 years old. I have been having acne since march this year.It started as small sand grain like pimples.But now I get very big ones which scar and looks like keloid. But it is interesting to note that the pimples are mostly on the right cheek and only a very few are on the left. I have taken antibiotics and used topical creams to no use. Also I changed my soap. I have a little oily skin which was clear. I have never had acne all through life. Now I am using cetaphil soap. I just came across your website today and was so glad you are patiently treating so many people. I believe that you can help me with my problem too. Awaiting your earliest reply as I am totally depressed of my acne.
I shall copy my default therapy for Acne which I hope can help you.

Thankyou very much sir. Is it ok to use soap on the face during the therapy ? If so could you please suggest.
You may use any mild soap when washing your face as you should discover in under a week that your lesions will stabilize.
I would appreciate if you will please report your progress as soon as you discover your acne drying up as patients have reported that they did so on the third day after their first dose of Arnica 6c.
Yes sir. I will report the progress. And I will also continue using the same soap Cetaphil which I am using now.
Thankyou for being so kind as to reply immediately.
Sir Joe
I am 45 years man with fair complexion. Three months back I noticed black patches on both my cheeks the size of a coin. It does not go off even after I tried rubbing in milk cream according to local physicians. When I referred to internet it says this is an infection called melasma. Is there a remedy for the same.Kindly help me please.
There is a faint chance that Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily may help your Melasma.
Please follow the directions below to make the Wet dose.

Thankyou sir. I will try the remedy. Do I have to cut down non vegetarian food ? And is it ok to drink tea. ? Please advice.
Sir
I have been using arnica 6c wetdose two days now.. according to your advice. And I am so happy to see that all my acne have started to dry off. The pain is gone.The big pimples have started to shrink. Thankyou so very much sir. I have been spraying the wetdose on my face too. But today I could not do so.. as I had to go to work. And I also put powder on my face today. Maybe because of that…one or two pimples have flared up a bit now in the afternoon compared to how it was in the morning. Should I stop using talcum powder on my face ? And is it ok if I spray the medicine in the morning and evening alone ? Please could you advice.
Dear joe sir,
I will bring arnica 6c as advised by you …and will report about my progress..!
Dear joe sir,
I went to homeopathy shop today ..they dont have the 6c potency ..only 32 and 200 they keep..but they will order it from another city after 3 days ..only then i can proceed wd ur treatment.
Sir i cant find arnica6c.i live in rajasthan india.is there any online site fron where i can get it?
I have bought Arnica 6 Alcohol vol 90 % for acne
1) Do I have to insert 3 drops of arnica in water bottle every time before taking my dose or do I just have to add it the first time?
2) I’m using prickly heat powder on my face for curing acne. Can I continue using it or should I just apply arnica?
You will only activate the bottle of water just ONCE with 3 drops of the Arnica 6c.
You will NOT use any powder on your face as the powder has not helped you so far.
You will spray your face with the remedy water from a separate spray bottle which you can pick up at any supermarket as often as is possible.

Sir,
I’m 20 years old and I had acne since I was 12. I learned about “joepathy” from ABC forum and was really impressed by it’s effectiveness and inspired by how you have helped so many people. I’ve brought Arnica 6c and about to start my dose replacing berberis aquifolium but there’s something that I need to ask…Should I add Arnica every time before taking my dose or just inserting it for the first time is enough.

Thank you so much sir. I will do exactly as you’ve guided and will keep you updated with the progress.
God bless you.
It’s the forth day and I can’t see any improvement in my acne rather I’ve got some new ones. I had accidentally put 4 drops instead of three. Do yoi think that can be the reason? Should I prepare a new bottle replacing the one with 4 drops?
You are the second case that did not respond to my default therapy for Acne with Arnica 6c which many thousands have used successfully.
If you do not respond in a maximum of 10 days and there is no improvement in your acne, it will then be obvious that my Arnica therapy will not help you.
Before you stop Arnica I would like you to get a new bottle of Arnica 6c from another brand like Dr Recheweg (German) as it is not impossible that you were given a remedy that was not Arnica 6c.
You have not also confirmed that you sprayed the liquid from the bottle on your face as this is very important to treat the pimples.
The pimples now have started to shrink…all of a sudden! I keep spraying my face with the remedy water. I’ll update tomorrow as to whether I’m just imagining it to work or whether it’s really working now.
Glad to learn that your Acne has responded in 5 days. 2 days more than the average time to respond as reported by patients. It has never failed me except in one case where I am not sure that the patient followed my therapy.
Keep spraying your face as often as possible as this is essential for a CURE. It is quite safe to continue this protocol.
Exercise is essential to keep Acne under control.
So is drinking over 3 liters liquids.
Sir,
I’ve noticed something. Your 1st case for whom joepathy didn’t workout used 10ml dilution and I’m also using the 10ml dilution as I couldn’t find the 5ml dilution. Probably this is the reason why I’m not getting results as good as many others have. I’m using 6 drops now because I’ve 10ml dilution should I continue with this?
Please explain what you wish to convey to me.
I do not understand what you mean by “10ml dilution”
As long as you use Arnica 6c which is the 6c potency of Arnica, the 10ml dilution does not make any difference to your acne.
You had instructed to take 5ml alchohol pack aka liquid dilution of Arnica 6c but I’ve got 10ml not 5ml.
Ok sir, if it doesn’t make any difference then I’ll continue with this.
Thank you so much for helping me out with everything that I ask.
Do not keep on bugging me every minute when you sit at your computer and post every one of your thoughts in a separate post as each message arrives separately and I have to waste time to read them and to connect them to you.
I have not been able to figure out what you wish to convey to me in each of your 3 posts.

Hi sir,
I live in an area where spring water is not available. Is it okay to use mineral water as an alternative?
You can use boiled filtered tap water.
