Homeopathy has been used for over 250 years. It has become known as a system of medicine which can act in a safe, gentle and effective manner to enhance the body’s own natural tendency to heal itself. Symptoms are seen as the body’s way of expressing dis-ease, or lack of balance and each person will do this in their own unique way. In Homeopathy we aim to offer an individualised treatment for each person’s unique situation and health history. Whether your health is compromised physically, emotionally or mentally, the Homeopathic principle is to treat you as an individual – rather than your “disease label”.

In Homeopathy less is definitely more – we use minute amounts of medicine based on the principle of “treat like with like”. This means that any substance which is capable of bringing about symptoms of illness in a healthy person, can be used in minute amounts to heal or relieve the same symptoms in people who are unwell. For example, drinking too much coffee can cause headaches and sleeplessness. A Homeopathic remedy made from coffee can be effective in the treatment of stress and insomnia.

As a natural medicine Homeopathy can be used by anyone of any age. It can be a valuable alternative to potentially harmful drugs – particularly during pregnancy, childhood and the later years of life. Homeopathy can be used in conjunction with the medical care offered by your medical practice.
