Meningioma – Brain Tumour Care & Support
Meningioma is a usually slow-growing tumour that develops from the meninges, the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord. Most meningiomas are benign in nature; however, depending on their size and location, they may produce neurological symptoms and require appropriate medical management.
Causes of Meningioma
The exact cause of meningioma is not always clearly identified. Possible contributing factors include:
- Genetic factors
- Hormonal influences
- Exposure to radiation
- Age-related cellular changes
Symptoms of Meningioma
Symptoms vary depending on the size and location of the tumour and may include:
- Persistent headaches
- Seizures
- Vision or hearing disturbances
- Memory or concentration difficulties
- Weakness or numbness in the limbs
Early detection supports better treatment planning and effective symptom control.
Homoeopathic Approach
Homoeopathy approaches meningioma holistically, focusing on the individual’s overall health rather than the tumour alone. Treatment is individualised based on physical symptoms, neurological signs, mental state, and constitutional factors, with the aim of supporting general well-being and symptom management.
Management of Meningioma
Effective management includes:
- Regular medical follow-ups and imaging as advised
- Individualised treatment planning
- Symptom-based supportive care
- Stress management and adequate rest
- Healthy diet and lifestyle support
Common Homoeopathic Remedies
Remedies are selected strictly based on individual case assessment:
- Calcarea Carbonica
- Silicea
- Conium Maculatum
- Thuja Occidentalis
Remedy selection and dosage should always be decided by a qualified homoeopathic doctor.
