Thuja is a deeply acting remedy with a strong affinity for the skin, mucous membranes, nervous system, and genitourinary tract. Below are its most characteristic symptoms:
MENTAL/EMOTIONAL SYMPTOMS
1. Fixed delusions (e.g., body is fragile, “made of glass,” or rotting).
2. Secretiveness or feelings of guilt/shame (as if hiding a “dirty secret”).
3. Hypochondriasis – extreme anxiety about health, fearing incurable diseases.
4. Sensation of being controlled by external forces or supernatural influences.
5. Emotional suppression after grief or disappointment, leading to physical ailments.
6. Intolerance of contradiction; irritable when questioned.
PHYSICAL/GENERAL SYMPTOMS
7. Adverse effects of vaccinations (chronic fatigue, skin issues, or neurological symptoms post-vaccination).
8. Left-sided complaints (headaches, sciatica, or joint pains).
9. Sensation of a “splinter” in localized areas (throat, rectum, or fingertips).
10. Greasy/oily skin with brown or white spots; sweat smells sweet or offensive.
11. Worse from cold, damp weather; symptoms flare at 3–4 AM.
SKIN & HAIR
12. Warts – large, fleshy, cauliflower-like (genital, anal, or on face).
13. Naevi (birthmarks) or brown patches on the skin.
14. Brittle nails with white spots or ridges.
15. Hair loss after grief or hormonal imbalances (e.g., post-pregnancy).
HEAD & NERVOUS SYSTEM
16. Headaches in the left temple, as if a nail is driven in.
17. Vertigo when closing the eyes.
18. Insomnia with frequent waking at 3 AM, accompanied by anxiety.
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
19. Flatulence with bloating, worse from onions, potatoes, or fatty foods.
20. Constipation with ineffective urging; stool seems “incomplete.”
21. Diarrhea after eating, with sudden urgency.
URINARY & GENITAL
22. Frequent urination with burning (chronic cystitis).
23. Genital warts (condylomata) or gonorrheal discharges.
24. Prostate issues with dribbling or discharge of prostatic fluid.
EXTREMITIES
25. Rheumatic pains in joints, worse in cold/damp.
26. Numbness in limbs, especially the left side.
27. Corns on feet with sharp, splinter-like pain.
KEY MODALITIES
28. Aggravation: At night, cold damp weather, after vaccination, or from suppressed discharges (e.g., sweat, menses).
29. Amelioration: Warmth, dry weather, and rest.
UNIQUE SYMPTOMS
30. Sensation of something alive wriggling in the abdomen (like a frog or worm).
CLINICAL NOTES:
– Thuja is a top remedy for vaccination-related chronic diseases (e.g., skin eruptions, neurological issues).
– Acts on slow-growing tumors, polyps, or warty growths.
– Useful for side effects of antibiotics or hormonal therapies.
Thuja’s symptoms often reflect a duality – a conflict between spiritual and physical existence, making it a remedy for deep-seated chronic conditions with a fixed mental or physical pathology. Always consider the patient’s emotional state alongside physical symptoms.
