Homeopathy is a branch of medicine treating illness on the basis of similarity to the whole health condition of the patient.
Homeopathic remedies catalyze healing, directing your innate healing mechanisms along the natural routes the mind and the body uses to remove disease. Therefore, homeopathy is helpful in all forms of illness.
The Homeopath prescribes on the basis of your individual manifestation of illness, be it an acute flu or a longer standing arthritis.
Homeopathic remedies are used to treat both acute and chronic illness; physical, mental and emotional dis-ease. Remedies are safe, non toxic and may be used by children, Infants and pregnant women and, may be taken alongside conventional medication.
Homeopathic remedies are simple to take and medication is only taken whilst needed.
Common conditions that patients present with include:
- Skin complaints - eczema and psoriasis
- Digestive complaints - heartburn, colic and constipation
- Respiratory complaints - respiratory tract infections, asthma
- Musculoskeletal complaints - arthritis, arthralgias
- Endocrine complaints - hyper/hypo thyroidism, diabetes
- Circulatory - hypertension
- Neurological - chronic headaches including migraines
- Immunological - allergic rhinitis (hay fever), autoimmune and HIV related illness
- Psychological and emotional imbalance such as chronic anxiety, depression, long-standing grief or insomnia
Single remedies are prescribed for the entire individual regardless of the seemingly separate complaints (e.g. insomnia and heartburn). Homeopathy cannot be used as prophylaxis- meaning that homeopathic remedies cannot be taken for future possible infections (e.g. travel to malaria-risk areas). Homeopathic remedies should only be taken under the supervision of a well qualified homeopath.
