What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy has been established for over 200 years, and is practised by professional homeopaths and conventional doctors, some of whom work in the five permanent homeopathic hospitals in the U.K.
Homeopathy involves prescribing a patient a minute dose of a substance, which in a larger quantity would cause the symptoms it is trying to cure. However, in a minute homeopathic form, it stimulates and focuses the healing system into a curative response.
There are over three thousand homeopathic remedies derived from plants, minerals, body tissue, and other natural substances. A detailed case history allows me to select the most appropriate remedies in your case. Homeopathic remedies cannot cause side effects and you cannot become addicted to them. The remedies are taken in dissolvable tablet form and are suitable for infants, as well as children and adults.
