Homeopathy

Homeopathy is an effective and scientific system of healing which assists the natural tendency of the body to heal itself. It recognises that symptoms of ill-health are expressions of imbalance in the whole person.

For many years homeopathic medicines have been recognised as a safe and effective means of treating ill-health. The course of homeopathic treatment consists of a first consultation lasting an hour or more, with subsequent appointments of half an hour each. Follow up consultations are usually monthly.

During the first consultation you will have the opportunity to fully describe your complaints and other factors which you feel affect your health.

Do remember that anything you say is treated in strict confidence. The homeopath forms a highly individualised picture of your well-being. This detail is needed to assess the remedy to be prescribed.

The remedy is prescribed either in a tablet or liquid form, with instructions on how to take the remedy. Nothing else should be put in the mouth for 15 minutes before or after take the remedy. It is important to avoid strong smelling substances during the whole course of your treatment, as these can interfere with your remedies, particularly camphor, menthol, peppermint and eucalyptus.

Complicated cases are cured from the inside, working outwards. This means that outer symptoms, such as skin disorders are often the last to disappear. Be patient: it is much better for you to be cured of both the cause of your illness and its symptoms, rather than merely relieve the symptoms.
