Homeopathy is a long established natural system of medicine which takes a holistic and individual approach to each patient. It acts by stimulating the body’s own defence and healing mechanism.
Homeopathic remedies are made from many different natural sources by a process of serial dilution and succussion [vigorous shaking], and can be administered as tablets, powders, granules or liquid. All remedies are safe and without side effects and can be taken with any other medicine without interactions.
 The remedy chosen is tailored specifically to the illness and characteristics of the individual. The founder of Homeopathy, was Dr Samuel Hahnemann 10/04/1755 to 02/07/1843. He showed that a substance producing symptoms in a healthy person could also be used to treat a sick person with similar symptoms, i.e. the principle that “like treats like”
Homeopathy can be used to treat many illnesses, acute and chronic, and can benefit people of all ages including babies and the very old. It is also very successfully used by vets to treat animals.
Acute conditions treated include fevers, sore throats, coughs, ear infections, boils and abscesses,teething, vomiting and diarrhoea, insect bites, allergies, bruises, burns, sprains and cuts, and acute anxiety states and shock.
Chronic conditions include eczema, psoriasis, asthma, arthritis, ME and fatigue syndromes, menstrual and menopausal symptoms, migraine, gastritis and dyspepsia, colitis, IBS, depression and emotional difficulties.
Homeopathy is very safe and can be effective when used for conditions for which there is no allopathic treatment.It has been prescribable on the NHS since the 1950’s and is used extensively by the Royal Family.
