This week the Undercover Homeopath analyses Rhianna's psychological profile according to homeopathy principles, and prescribes a homeopathic remedy.

That awkward moment when chat show host Ellen DeGeneres realises she is interviewing one of RiRi's body parts...





Rihanna has been voted the sexiest woman alive

She is also one of the most successful singers, and since her career took off at the age of sixteen she’s been constantly in public view.


She had a traumatic upbringing, her parents separated when she was young. Her dad has a long history of addiction to both alcohol and cocaine. As a child she was a bit of tomboy, prefer to play amongst the boys then to be with girls. She suffered from debilitating headaches as a child.

She admits that her ideal man has to be aggressive, mysterious and very self-assured…

She’s been abused by the men in her life, and suffered a very public attack by former partner Chris Brown who left her excoriated, bruised and battered for all of us to see, after one of the couple rows went out of control.

On Twitter she is constantly talking about sex, and retweeting her fans lewd comments about her.

In her song Disturbia which was curiously written by Chris Brown for himself but later decided that the song didn’t suit him as it had a very feminine vibe and was more suited to Rihanna.  It speaks of mental confusion and identity crisis  of someone beeing intruded and invaded by someone or something stronger than them. The song is very suggestive of rape and of the mental confusion rape victims can go through afterwards.

There are also other interesting songs that replay this theme, not necessarily of actual rape, but of abusive sexual relationships.

Her album “Good girl gone bad” also plays up to the theme of someone who was innocent but has been corrupted.

In homeopathy the best known remedy for rape victims, and females who have been victims of sexual abuse is Staphysagria. It is also a main remedy for cystitis after intercourse: what it is sometimes called “Honeymoon cystitis”. It is also a remedy for head and eye injuries with severe headaches.

A patient needing Staphysagria, is excessively sexual, even lewd, and given to masturbate frequently. They become sex obsessed after the abuse they have sustained.

There is a guilty complex about the abuse itself, with the patient suffering from indignation about the way they have been treated by their abuser. However this anger is turn towards them for having allowed the attack to happen.

Their psychological coping mechanism is to become sexually corrupt, playing the initial traumatic sexual event, and re-inventing it by creating situations, or getting involved in relationships, that have the potential for further physical and sexual abuse.

In a way they feel this as a way of gaining control over of themselves: if they are the ones creating the opportunity for their own abuse to take place, at least they have some control over the situation.
