Homoeopathy

Is an exceptionally safe form of medicine which treats the whole individual physically, mental and emotionally.

It is equally concerned with maintaining good health and aiding recovery from ill health and relies for its effects on the body’s own powers of self-regulation and self healing.

Since its development over 200 years ago homoeopathy has benefited millions of people, young and old, from all walks of life, in countries all over the world.

Homoeopathic principles state that what causes a disease in a large dose, may cure it in very small dilutions, and in doing so sharply provokes the body into its own healing process. This is the principle of “like may be cured by like”.

Homoeopathy is a naturopathic form of medicine made from diluted organic substances, mostly plants and minerals and it seeks to assist nature rather than to bludgeon her, to assist the body’s own healing energies rather than to override them.

The process of prescribing takes into consideration the physical symptoms, the mental and the emotional characteristics of the patient at that moment in time; and; as homoeopathy is a rational system of medicine “if” the body’s defense systems are handicapped by poor diet, bad habits, destructive emotions, and environmental stresses then these areas also need to be addressed to enable the full co-operation of the body’s healing abilities.

Homoeopathy is not a system for those in search of instant, easy answers, although it can act very swiftly in acute conditions (it saved more people in the cholera epidemics of the 1800’s than any other treatment) and was proven to be remarkably effective in inoculation against small pox in the early 1900’s. It requires the willingness to stick to a course of action, diet, lifestyle changes and the result is higher vitality and greater resistance to all disease processes.
