What is Homeopathy?

Crystal

Homeopathy is a system of natural medicine which treats the whole person rather than a localised/named disease. We all experience illness differently, and even though there will be common symptoms, there are also symptoms unique to each person, therefore a homeopath does not automatically prescribe a specific remedy for a specific illness, every prescription is individual. Homeopathic remedies act as a stimulus to the body's self healing mechanism, facilitating the return to a state of well being. Because homeopathy treats the person and not a disease state it can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions including accidents and injuries, acute illnesses, physical conditions, emotional problems, behavioural difficulties and long term conditions. Homeopathy can also be used to maintain your optimum level of health enabling you to get the most out of your life.
