What is homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a complete system of natural, evidence-based, medicine which works on the principle that ‘like cures like’.
This means that a substance given in highly diluted form as a remedy can help treating the same symptoms it can cause when taken in large doses. A typical example is coffee: while in many people coffee can cause inability to sleep and an overloading of the nervous system, the highly diluted homeopathic remedy that is made from it can help people who suffer from a similar kind of insomnia.
Homeopathy is a system of medicine that is over 200 years old and currently used by hundreds of millions of people worldwide. It works by stimulating the body’s self-healing with small doses of highly diluted substances – these are called remedies.
Homeopathy is the second largest system of medicine in the world today, as recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO).
So what exactly is homeopathy?
Respectful
Remedies do not chemically override your system, but work with it to stimulate your own self-healing and encourage your organism to find a new, healthy balance.
Non-toxic
Highly-diluted remedies mean no toxic effects, which makes this form of medicine ideal to be used at times like pregnancy and infancy as well as alongside conventional treatment.
Individual
Homeopathy does not treat conditions but the person: each remedy is selected strictly to match the whole of the patient’s symptoms.
Holistic
Well-selected homeopathic remedies aim at improving the physical, emotional and mental health of the patient.
The history
Remedies are made from a wide range of substances such as minerals and plants. For example: marigold (Calendula), Sulphur (the mineral), or the sting of a bee (Apis).
Homeopathic pharmacies make remedies by taking a small quantity of the chosen material and crushing or macerating it. It is then diluted many times, and succussed (vigorously shaken) between each dilution to release the energy of the substance.

About me
I have been practicing homeoptahy for 15 years and is now very much part of who I am.
My interest in began when my Mother was ill, not only how it helped her through her illness, but how it helped the rest of my family recover from her loss. I found something that would always be a part of my physical and emotional well being.
Now I use my skills and experiences to help others through difficult times for a variety of reasons that modern life throws upon them.
