Homeopathy is recognised by the World Health Organisation as the second most prevalent therapeutic system in the world. It is used by over 30 million people in Europe, and is especially popular in India and in South America. It is a unique medicine for achieving a better wellbeing and can be used to address physical problems and/or emotional issues.

Whatever your initial motivation for choosing homeopathy the Homeopath will always look at both body and mind together, as the one is inextricably linked with the other.

By addressing the totality of the individual on both these levels, homeopathy works on the totality of your symptoms to rebalance your whole mind and body.

This gentle approach has many obvious benefits, the most  important being homeopathy’s ability to offer a tailored response  to your specific symptoms, without causing you the discomfort of side effects. The potentised remedies simply work with the body's own inherent intelligence, stimulating the body to heal itself.

In theory there is no limit to what conditions homeopathy can treat, in practice it depends on the experience of the practitioner, and also the laws in different countries limiting what can be treated.

The advantage of Homeopathic remedies is that they are highly diluted, safe substances and therefore do not interact with conventional medications.

The Main Principle of Homeopathy.

The fundamental basis for the practice of homeopathy is based on the principle of 'Similars' set out by Hippocrates. This fundamentally contrasts with the principle of 'Opposites' as utilised by  allopathy -the conventional medicine that  is prescribed by your GP.

For example, allopathic medicine will use a method to treat a skin condition, by suppressing it with an agent such as coal tar products, steroids based creams, etc.
