Homeopathy

Homeopathy is a 200-year-old form of alternative medicine that stimulates a healing response and strengthens the body’s ability to heal itself. It is widely practised in Europe, India, the US, and South Africa by conventionally trained physicians.  

In order to cure a particular ailment, homeopathy introduces a remedy that mimics the symptoms and does not treat the symptoms itself, thereby building up the body’s resistance.

Homeopaths aim to treat the whole person, taking into account personality, lifestyle and hereditary factors, as well as the history of the disease. Since all people are unique, homeopathic medicines are prescribed to treat individuals.

Homeopathic remedies use extracts from plants, minerals, salts, and animals. These extracts are dissolved and then diluted many times in alcohol or water (using a special technique) to form the remedies. Although you can buy some homeopathic remedies over the counter, a homeopath will devise a remedy specifically for you, and it may contain a combination of substances.

Recently I had a serious digestive and reflux issue which general antibiotics and medicine could not help resolve.  After seeing a wonderful homeopath I was cured. This did take 3 months to resolve and I received some great advise and direction also in terms of diet and healthy lifestyle choices to follow. 

Homeopaths treat people, rather than diseases. Homeopathic medicine is suitable for both acute and chronic conditions even babies however please refer to a homeopath before using shelf bought remedies. A homeopath can prescribe remedies for babies suffering from problems such as colic, administering the medicine via a sweet pill, a powder, or a liquid.
