What is homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a complementary system of healing incorporating the art of healing and science of medicine. Homeopathy uses specially prepared, highly diluted substances found in nature, with the aim of triggering the body’s own healing mechanisms. It is a safe and effective method and can be used for all ages from infants to the elderly and during pregnancy.
The Homeopathic Prescription
​
Remedies are prescribed, not on the basis of a single symptom, but on a much larger
picture, focusing on the person as a whole, including the person’s constitution, past medical and life history, mental and emotional state, life-style and much more.
Disease is not a single isolated event but is an expression of disharmony in the whole person. This disharmony expresses itself through various psychological and physical discomfort which we call symptoms. Homeopathy recognises that these symptoms of ill-health are frequently expressions of imbalance or disharmony within the whole person, and that it is the patient, not the disease itself, at which the treatment should be directed.
A deep understanding of the relationship between symptoms and the person’s life expression is essential in order to make an effective prescription.
Individualised treatment is the essence of homeopathy
Potentisation​
Remedies are prepared using a unique process of progressive dilution and physical agitation. This is called ‘Potentisation’.
This is not simply the dilution of a substance.
Homeopathic remedies, properly prepared and prescribed, are safe and can be given to pregnant women, babies, children & animals.
