There are many reasons to choose homoeopathy amongst which are:

Homoeopathy is often successful where other treatments have failed and can help reduce your need to take conventional medicines.

Homoeopathic medicines are not addictive and have no dangerous side-effects.

You will be treated as a whole person – emotional and environmental factors also affect your well-being.

Homoeopathy tackles the cause of ill health rather than suppressing symptoms. People often say that homoeopathic treatment has made them feel better in themselves.

Homoeopathy is a system of medicine is based on an ancient law, that substances which cause symptoms to appear in the healthy will cure these same symptoms in the sick. It differs from orthodox medicine in treating the individual patient rather than a diagnosed disease. Thus it can help someone even if they are not suffering from a recognised condition. It is holistic: it treats people at all levels – the emotional and mental state is as important as the state of your body.

To select the medicine which most closely matches a person – a lot of information needs to be taken, so a homoeopathic consultation can take much longer than an appointment with a doctor. The first session takes about one hour and follow-ups require ½ hour. The medicines come from natural sources, but are prepared in a special way which ensures that they are dilute enough not to have side-effects but contain a lot of energy. Research has demonstrated that the functions of our bodies are controlled by electromagnetic energy fields, which can be affected by homoeopathic medicines.

Homoeopathy is not about killing germs – it is about raising your level of health so that germs will not thrive in your body and you will be less susceptible to them. It can move to be used in pregnancy and in infancy. The remedies are not tested on animals but animals can be very successfully treated with them and a number of vets use homoeopathic medicines.
