Carcinosin - The Boundary Remedy

Carcinosin is a deep-acting and transformational Homeopathic remedy, and one that I have prescribed hundreds of times. Known for helping individuals break free from cycles of stress, perfectionism, and even patterns inherited from past generations, Carcinosin can aid both physical and emotional well-being. It is a beautiful remedy that can help those with a lack of boundaries, people pleasing and co-dependent tendencies, and more.


What is Carcinosin?


Carcinosin is a remedy derived from breast tissue and is prepared through a process that renders it non-toxic and entirely safe to use in homeopathic form. In homeopathy, substances are highly diluted through a process of serial dilution and succussion (vigorous shaking), which eliminates any physical trace of the original substance, including any harmful components. Although it is originally derived from diseased tissue, the remedy itself contains no actual diseased material due to this extreme dilution. Instead, homeopathic remedies carry an energetic imprint of the original substance only - not any physical substance. They are non-toxic and safe for use even in sensitive individuals, from newborns through to the elderly.


Who Benefits Most from Carcinosin?


Carcinosin is often used for people who feel a need for control, perfectionism, or self-sacrifice—those who have a strong tendency to care for others before themselves. The Carcinosin personality type may have grown up with strict or high expectations and, as a result, may struggle with issues like fear of failure, self-criticism, and a relentless drive for perfection. These individuals often have a history of carrying heavy emotional burdens, sometimes going back generations. I often refer to Carcinosin - 'The Boundary Remedy' as it helps those with weak boundaries (people pleasers etc), become more empowered.


Commonly, people suited to Carcinosin may display:

- Overwhelming Responsibility: They tend to feel responsible for others' well-being, often neglecting their own.

- Perfectionism: A drive to achieve high standards in everything, sometimes to the point of exhaustion.

- Sensitivity: They may have a strong love of music, art, and beauty, with a refined appreciation for life's subtleties.

- Suppressed Emotions: Often, they have learned to suppress their feelings or keep them hidden due to past trauma or family pressures.

- Rebelliousness: This remedy is sometimes beneficial for individuals who, despite strict upbringing, rebelled against conformity, seeking freedom in various ways.


Physical and Emotional Benefits of Carcinosin


Carcinosin is renowned for its ability to address chronic stress and emotional suppression, which are known contributors to numerous health conditions - including Cancer.


1. Alleviating Anxiety and Stress: For people who are perfectionists or prone to anxiety due to a relentless drive, Carcinosin helps them step back and relax, enabling a more balanced approach to life.

2. Improving Sleep and Reducing Fatigue: Chronic stress can lead to sleep disorders and fatigue, and Carcinosin can help support restful sleep and reduce tiredness, especially for those who find it hard to switch off their minds.


3. Supporting Immune Health: Given that chronic stress can weaken immune function, Carcinosin’s effect on emotional balance can contribute to a healthier immune response, reducing susceptibility to recurring infections and other stress-related conditions.


4. Healing from Trauma: Many Carcinosin types carry the emotional residue of past trauma, sometimes inherited from family dynamics or early childhood experiences. Carcinosin can help release these emotional blockages, fostering emotional resilience, encouraging healing, and promote stronger boundaries.


5. Addressing Physical Symptoms Related to Lifestyle Patterns: This remedy can benefit those dealing with lifestyle-related issues, including digestive issues, headaches, allergies, or skin conditions that are aggravated by stress.



Carcinosin is best used under the guidance of a qualified Homeopath, who will assess whether it’s the right fit based on a person’s overall constitution, history, and individual symptoms. This remedy is often prescribed in higher potencies (like 200C or 1M) and taken at spaced intervals, as it can stimulate a profound healing response. Reactions to Carcinosin can vary, and the remedy is typically repeated only when symptoms return, so regular follow-up is essential to ensure it continues to be beneficial.


Carcinosin’s beauty lies in its ability to help people release long-held emotional and physical patterns. By gently unlocking suppressed emotions and promoting self-acceptance, Carcinosin often helps individuals find a new balance in their lives—one where they can truly be at ease with themselves.


As always, it’s essential to work with a knowledgeable Homeopath when considering Carcinosin, as the remedy requires careful individualization. With the right guidance, Carcinosin can be a powerful ally for those ready to break free from cycles of chronic stress and rediscover inner peace.
