HOMEOPATHY

Homeopathy was developed over 200 years ago by Dr Samuel Hahnemann. He experimented with the idea that the symptoms caused by a raw substance might be a clue to the medicinal properties of that substance, hence the emergence of the phrase 'like cures like'. He found that by diluting the substance any toxicity and negative effects were removed, and the substance acted as a catalyst for the body’s own healing processes.

Homeopathic remedies are made from many different substances found throughout the natural world, and more recently, from more modern manmade substances that might have influenced a person’s state of health, such as heavy metals, plasyics etc.

Many people use homeopathy at home to treat coughs, colds and other minor ailments, and other people will visit a homeopath when they are unwell or to get support for more serious or long-term conditions. Homeopathy can also be used to help with more emotional symptoms such as anxiety, depression and panic attacks.

Homeopathy stimulates the innate healing ability of the body, and can be safely used along side other therapies and treatments where necessary.

Conditions that may be helped by homeopathy include anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, headache/migraine, digestive issues, hormonal imbalance, period problems, pmt, fertility, pregnancy and birth, chronic conditions and side affects associated with conventional treatments, and acute conditions such as coughs, colds, hay fever, and stomach bugs!

Every person experiences illness differently, even with the same diagnosis. Your experience of the flu will not be exactly the same as your partner’s or your neighbour’s. With homeopathy your individual symptoms will be the guide as to which remedy will help you get better quickly and gently.

Homeopathy is non-toxic and has no side-effects. This means it is suitable for anyone, from babies, children, pregnant women and the elderly.

Homeopathy is used by more than 30 million people in Europe alone and many millions more across the globe. It is part of the mainstream medical establishment in India and Cuba, where it is used alongside conventional medicine with great success.
