What is Homeopathy ?
Homeopathy is an extremely effective system of medicine using remedies made from naturally occurring substances which stimulate the body's own healing powers. It is suitable for everybody from pregnancy and birth through childhood, adulthood, and into older age.
Patients are treated as individuals regardless of their diagnosis, so two people with the same disease may be prescribed different remedies.

The Remedies
Homeopathic remedies are gentle, subtle and powerful and are without side effects. They work by stimulating the body's own natural ability to heal itself and even though gentle, results can be deep and long lasting.
A professional homeopath will prescribe individually for each person based on the totality of symptoms on the mental, emotional , and physical levels.
The remedies are prepared by strictly regulated Homeopathic pharmacies and can be safely taken alongside orthodox medicines.
A professional homeopath will never tell you to give up medicine prescribed by your doctor, however, over time as your health improves less medication may be needed and your doctor may decide to reduce it.

The Consultation Process
A questionnaire is sent to you in advance of the first visit. At the first visit a homeopath will take a detailed medical history and will also want to understand a little about you as a person also. They will want to know all your symptoms, what makes your illness feel better or worse for example, as well as other aspects of your life.
A homeopath is aware that establishing good health involves treating both mind and body so time is taken to listen to both emotional and physical problems.
It is important to tell your homeopath of any medication you are on from your doctor, any supplements you take, and any dietary requirements.
Also tell your homeopath of any dental treatment you are having.
