What is Homeopathy and How Can it Help?

Homeopathy is a form of alternative medicine. Natural remedies are used to support your wellbeing by focusing on your emotional and physical disease. The remedy triggers the body's own healing response and so a remedy is precribed on a very individual basis.

Homeopathy can support and focus on many factors that affect our wellbeing and cause disease, including stress and unresolved trauma. Homeopathy can often be used to treat the same wide range of illnesses as conventional medicine, and may even prove more successful when all other treatments have failed.  

Homeopathy treats you as an individual, so your first appointment can take up to 90 minutes to give plenty of time to discuss your main complaint and your general health. We will discuss all of your symptoms in detail, focus on how they affect you and the impact that they may have on your life.

Homeopathy believes that illness is a whole-person process. In practice, this means that symptoms will always be put into the perspective of the whole patient's medical and personal history. In this way, Homeopathy is a truly holistic therapy, and it very much concentrates on helping the body to heal itself. 

A homeopathic consultation involves a thorough investigation of the patient's health and personal history. This is most important, as homeopathy recognises that any unresolved event - emotional or physical - may cause a lasting imbalance which will eventually be expressed in physical illness.
