Homeopathic Medicine

What is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a widely used and effective system of medicine.  As a safe and gentle healing practice it treats everyone as an individual and can enhance your general health, immunity, restore vitality and improve emotional wellbeing. It takes a holistic and individualistic approach.Homeopathy stimulates the body’s own self-healing potential and treats the person rather than the disease.  Homeopathy is suitable for everyone due to the highly diluted substances. It is recognised by the World Health Organisation as the second largest therapeutic system in use in the world. 

Homeopathy was refined by chemist and doctor Samuel Hahnemann.  He found that if his remedies were potentised through dilution and succussion (shaken), not only were the side effects reduced but also the remedies were also more effective. This process creates a pure and gentle healing stimulus, whilst retaining the inherent imprint of the chosen substance.

It works on the principle that ‘likes treats like’.  Any substance that causes symptoms in healthy person can treat those same symptoms in disease.

 

The remedies are obtained from plant, chemical, mineral and animal kingdoms.
