What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a safe, gentle, effective well-established system of health care, based on a holistic approach to patients and their health.

All aspects of an individual’s symptoms, lifestyle, personality and medical history are considered to be relevant to their state of health, and are taken into account by the practitioner in order for a prescription to be made.

Homeopathic remedies, selected from a vast range of natural substances, are then used to stimulate the person’s ability to heal themselves. Unlike conventional medicine, homeopathy views symptoms as part of the healing process and not as part of the disease.

Thus the selection of a remedy is based on the Law of Similars. By reflecting back to the body, the symptoms it is producing, the remedy promotes the healing process.

Homeopathy has been in world-wide use for 200 years in its current form, having been started in the late 18th Century by Samuel Hahnemann. However, it was first proposed by Hippocrates.

Most remedies have been in use throughout the last two centuries, although new remedies are constantly being added to the range available. Consequently, they are well researched and their effects are very well known.
