Allergy season is especially rough right now, and traditional medications may make you feel less-than-energized. To help those interested in finding relief the natural way (and avoid walking around in an allergy-induced haze), Boiron has developed an app that helps users locate alternative, homeopathic treatments.
The Boiron Homeopathic Medicine Finder helps users find the best homeopathic medicine in just three clicks. It's great for individuals having a tough time narrowing down their particular symptoms and finding a solution that suits all their needs.
First, choose from 15 categories including: allergy, children's issues, circulatory, cold & flu, cough & throat, digestive problems, eye care, first aid/skin, joint and muscle pains, motion sickness & nausea, oral care, pain/trauma, stop smoking, stress & sleep, and women's issues.
Next, users are asked to pick symptoms from a database of more than 450 symptoms of self-treatable conditions.
In the final step, medicine is recommended to match. Additional information on the medicine's purpose, dosage and other useful lifestyle tips are provided.
In 2014, the most popular issues researched via the Boiron Homeopathic Medicine Finder were:
1. Restless sleep
2. Tobacco cravings with nausea while trying to stop smoking
3. Stiff joints from arthritis pain
4. Waking up around 3 a.m.
5. Sinus congestion related to allergies
6. Yeast infection
7. Profuse sweating from hot flashes
8. Snoring
9. Irritability while trying to stop smoking
10. Stress or sleep problems with irritability stemming from grief, anger or vexation
Another benefit of the app is the ability to locate nearby stores, in-store offers and coupons. Medicinal protocols can be printed or shared via Facebook, Twitter or e-mail. Available for iOS, Android and Amazon Kindle devices, the app can be downloaded via the Apple iTunes App Store or Google Play. It is also available at Boiron.
