What Is Homoeopathy?

Homoeopathy is a natural, gentle, holistic form of medicinal treatment. It promotes healing responses with specifically prepared substances that mimic the symptoms of the disease.

Where Did Homoeopathy Originate From?

Homoeopathy is derived from Greek 'homoios' - like or similar and 'pathos' - feeling, passion or suffering' - first suggested by Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine. Paracelsus also used the 'Law of Similars' in his practice.

Dr Samuel Hahneman (1755-1845) German physician, chemist and linguist rediscovered homoeopathy via 'like cures like' and the process of potentization - a method by which substances are diluted to lessen toxic properties and magnify their effectiveness.

How Does Homoeopathy Work?

Homoeopathy treats the underlying causes of ill-health, taking into account not only the condition itself, but the whole person. This includes medical history, mental and emotional well-being, likes and dislikes and lifestyle.

Why Try Homoeopathy?

Homoeopathic medicine is invaluable in the treatment of acute, deep-seated chronic as well as hereditary diseases. The purpose of homoeopathic treatment is to stimulate the body’s natural resistance against disease or ill-health.

It is often the small idiosyncrasies that are “the real you” that help the homoeopath to select the remedy that best fits your needs.
