HOMEOPATHY – THE MEDICINE OF THE 21ST CENTURY!

HOMEOPATHY is a form of holistic health care. It was first formulated as a system of medicine more than 200 years ago by the German physician, Samuel Hahnemann and has evolved to become one of the most popular forms of complementary and alternative medicine in the world today. Homeopathy uses remedies made from natural substances from the plant, mineral and animal kingdoms. The source material is highly diluted and through a complicated and strictly regulated process transformed into a medicinal substance with a deep healing power. It will trigger the body’s own healing mechanism, strengthen the immune system and bring the person back into balance.

Homeopathic remedies are prescribed for the individual person rather than for a disease. Therefore two people suffering from the same complaint may need two different remedies. In order to be effective the remedy has to be matched as closely as possible to the patient’s symptoms and personality. This is why the first consultation will last between 1 and 1 ½ hours. The homeopath focuses on your current ailments and how these affect you. She will listen carefully and may ask questions about your medical history, your family’s medical history and your lifestyle. Shortly after your visit you will be given a homeopathic remedy to start the healing process.

How quickly this remedy will have an effect depends on a number of factors, such as age, lifestyle, other medication taken and how long you have already been suffering from your ailment. Acute complaints generally respond quickly while chronic complaints may require more prolonged treatment.

Finally you will be asked to come for a follow-up visit approx. 4 weeks after your first visit or earlier in acute conditions. This consultation allows both you and your homeopath to assess your reaction to the medicine and decide how your treatment can best be continued. It is recommended to continue treatment for at least 3 consecutive months in order to be effective.
