Homeopathy

What is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a therapeutic system of medicine, which is scientifically-based and has a long history of effectiveness, and which works by stimulating the health- maintaining and repairing mechanisms of the human body simultaneously.

Modern Homeopathy was founded by a German physician, Samuel Hahnemann who elaborated a radically different approach to disease, remedy and cure

He called it Homeopathy, which is a compound of two Greek words: “omios” meaning same and “pathos” meaning disease

Some of the main diseases and conditions that Homeopathy can treat:

  • Chronic headaches
  • Migraines
  • Allergic rhinitis
  • Vertigo
  • Bronchial + allergic asthma
  • Hepatitis
  • Liver damage
  • Phobias + anxiety
  • Juvenile acne
  • Attention Deficit Disorder
  • Gastritis
  • Duodenal ulcers

What to expect from your Homeopathic visit

  • The first visit to a Homeopathic doctor will play out in much the same way as a visit to a conventional doctor
  • There will be an in-depth enquiry concerning your medical history
  • The first visit normally lasts between 1-2 hours
  • There will usually be questions relating to personality traits, physical features, possible disease patterns within families
  • Follow-up visits, if they are required, will be shorter in duration, and will be aimed at seeing what aspects of a patient’s condition have changed positively, and which have not changed either substantially or at all
