What is homeopathy ? |
|
|
|
Homeopathy is a complete system of medicine.
It was developed over 200 years ago and it is still developing in the 21st century.
More than 30 million people in Europe already benefit from homeopathic treatment.
It is effective and promotes the natural ability of the body to heal itself.
Modern homeopaths use the knowledge and vast clinical experience of the past together
with up to date technology and research into homeopathy to benefit their patients.
Many of the medicines are made from plants, but also from metals, minerals and
other sources.

How does it work ? |
|
|
|
A homeopathic medicine, correctly selected for you, will stimulate your immune system
and any other systems of your body that are out of balance to return to health.
The aim is also to stimulate changes in your state of mind and energy levels so that you
can cope more easily with life's stresses.

You can consider consulting a Homeopath for any health problem, whether short term or chronic
or during a special time, such as pregnancy. Homeopathy can work for all ages and in
all situations.
Short term health problems that bring patients to a homeopath include anything from chicken pox or warts,
to injuries, or the effects of recent stressful events. Chronic health problems that are commonly brought
include asthma, eczema, hay fever and other allergies, depression or anxiety attacks,
chronic fatigue syndrome, menopausal or other hormonal problems, migraines, stomach and
bowel conditions, joint problems and poor resistance to infection.

Pregnant women and nursing mothers often seek homeopathic treatment because the medicine is
safe and non-toxic for mother and baby and common problems such as nausea, indigestion and mastitis
can be treated successfully.
Homeopathy is especially suitable for children because it is safe and without side effects.
Also the medicine is easy to take and tastes pleasant. Everything from constant coughs and colds or ear infections,
to behaviour problems including hyperactivity disorders, are commonly treated by homeopaths.

Any stress, illness or injury is treatable by homeopathy. We work alongside conventional
medicine and other health professionals. For example, if a bone has been broken, after conventional treatment,
homeopathic medicines can speed the healing of the bone and soft tissues. On the other hand,
if you are seeking to talk through and be treated for the effects of trauma or stress,
your homeopath might be the first health professional that you contact.

If you are concerned about the number of courses of antibiotics or steroids that have
been necessary for yourself or your family, consider trying homeopathy as an alternative or
additional method of dealing with your health problems.
