HOW DO HOMEOPATHIC MEDICINES WORK?

Homeopathic medicines (remedies) are energy-based medicines, essentially vibrational in nature, so they work directly on your consciousness and awareness to balance you in the places you need to be balanced and act to unblock any impediments to the flow of your energy or ‘chi’.

ARE THE HOMEOPATHIC REMEDIES SAFE TO TAKE?

Yes, they are as the homeopathics act on your energy centres (otherwise known as your chakras) to unblock energy stagnation.

HOW LONG DOES IT USUALLY TAKE FOR THE HOMEOPATHICS TO WORK?

With the right homeopathic remedy, you can feel changes and shifts almost straight away sometimes and at other times there can be a more subtle and gradual change over time.

HOW LONG IS A HOMEOPATHIC CONSULTATION?

An initial consultation is generally longer as I need to get a detailed case history of your health issues or concerns(past and present) and get to know more about you as a person. Thus the first session can take up an hour or more. Generally follow-up sessions are shorter (30 to 45 minutes) but if needed can be longer.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF THE HOMEOPATHIC SYSTEM OF MEDICINE OVER WESTERN MEDICINE AND OTHER NATURAL THERAPIES?

* The homeopathic remedies are safe, non-toxic and non-habit forming and work a treat even with babies, children and your pets
* The remedies are easy to take and often quick in their actions
* No nasty aftertaste (as with taking herbs) and not labour intensive (as with taking lots of supplements every day)

WHAT IS THE HISTORY AND ORIGINS OF HOMEOPATHY?

Apart from Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Indian-based Ayurvedic system of medicine (which are of ancient origins), the homeopathic system of medicine is one of the longest established and continuing systems of medicine to have arisen in Europe. The father of homeopathy was Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician disillusioned with the medical practices of his time which were radical and dangerous. He sought and discovered a safer and gentler system of medicine and healing he named homeopathy. He published his first paper on the method (he called homeopathy) in 1796 and homeopathy was born.
