homeopathy

---

Homeopathy is a natural system of medicine, it uses remedies from natural sources to treat physical and emotional health issues. It looks at the root cause of the problem as well as the symptoms. It was developed by Dr Samuel Hahnemann in the 18th century and is still used by over 200 million people worldwide today, including The Royal Family and many well known celebrities. It uses remedies from natural sources so you do not need to worry about side effects. I work with you to develop a treatment that is gentle and supportive to help restore and rebalance health and wellbeing.  

Medicines are made from specially prepared non-toxic highly diluted natural substances in liquid or tablet form and can be used alongside conventional medicines. Medicines work naturally with the body to strengthen and rebalance health. Prescriptions are tailored for each individual patient and are matched carefully to specific symptoms. Bach Flower remedies may also be used, these are plant essences prescribed to treat and rebalance emotional states.  

Patients often come to me because they want more control over their health. they may be tired of managing their symptoms and would like to look at ways to  restore their health naturally. 

They may be suffering from the side effects of conventional medicines and want to investigate the reasons behind their ill health and get to the root cause. 

Some patients and families want to take a more natural approach to medicine and I support them with Homeopathy. During the course of treatment they learn to treat basic ailments at home. I encourage families with young patients to purchase their own remedy kits to make this more cost effective for them. 

Other patients have emotional symptoms and Homeopathy is very supportive during times of stress or change, it can help to maintain health physically during these times as well as helping patients manage better emotionally. 

I treat all ages and conditions as well as specialising in treating complex children and cases with ASD, ADHD and ODD. I  continue to work with many conditions including:  individuals suffering from grief, trauma, shock, depression, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, migraines, insomnia, stress related conditions, behavioural problems, ASD, coughs, croup, IBS, female hormonal issues, fertility, arthritis, long covid, eczema and Nodular Prurigo, psoriasis, fungal infections, warts and verrucas, ear infections, allergies and more.

Homeopathy can treat long term chronic problems as well as acute health problems. I can also support you and your family with acute appointments for flu, colds, earaches, tummy upsets, congestion, sore throats, diarrhoea, indigestion and heartburn, infant colic and dry skin and more. 

Homeopathic medicines are considered safe for use with babies, children and for women during pregnancy and breast-feeding mothers. They are especially supportive for optimising good health  before and during pregnancy, during labour and for mum and baby post birth to help recovery and breastfeeding.  Children can benefit from Homeopathy at all stages, especially during periods of change and growth and when they reach puberty and experience skin problems and hormonal changes. 

I give you plenty of time to talk about everything that is worrying you. I provide a relaxed, non judgemental,  confidential space. This can include your medical history, lifestyle and personality, diet and  current health issues.  

I provide a  clear treatment plan and homeopathic prescription with clear dosage instructions which will you will receive following the appointment. I sometimes include other holistic recommendations and Bach Flower remedies to support you. 

First appointments can last up to 90 minutes. 

Follow up appointments are essential for me to check your progress and changes to your health and wellbeing. Second and third follow up appointments at  4 week intervals are recommended. Follow up appointments can last 45 - 60 minutes. 

This can vary depending on how long you have been unwell and your individual case. If you have a longer-term chronic condition this will require a course of treatment. I recommend a visit once a month for the first 3 months to start seeing positive change and then longer intervals as health improves. 

Additional Tests - I can also support you with  any tests you may require at additional cost.  Including hair mineral analysis,  detoxification, OATS testing, Mycotoxin testing, Genetic testing.
