More Information

Homeopathy has been well established for over two hundred years. The originator Dr Samuel Hahnemann first alluded to the principle of “like curing like” when he was translating the poisoning symptoms for a herbal manual that he was writing at the time. Since then as Homeopaths we can call on over three thousand remedies for almost any complaint that you would often see a medical practitioner for. Patients come from all walks of life with many ailments which may include skin disorders, hormonal disturbances, also emotional disorders that may cause anxieties and stresses leading sometimes to depression. Others may come for sports injuries. Allergies and Pregnancy problems all have been seen in my clinic. Homeopathy is a Natural, Safe and Proven form of medicine that can be alternative, complementary or integrative.

How do Homeopathic Medicines Work?

Homeopathic medicines stimulate the body to heal itself. They have been working effectively in clinical practice all over the world for 200 years.
Homeopathy is essentially a natural healing process, providing remedies to assist the patient to regain health by stimulating the body's natural healing forces. It concentrates on treating the patient, rather than the disease.
Homeopathic remedies are highly effective, scientifically proven, extremely cost-effective, non-habit forming, and they are equally effective on humans and animals.
Homeopathic remedies are made from plants, animal products, minerals and (occasionally) conventional drugs or disease matter. Homoeopathic remedies are not tested on animals.
When asking the patient to describe symptoms, the homeopath wants to go beyond such blanket terms as merely "rheumatism" or "asthma" and to discover how that particular problem presents in you as an individual in your own unique response to the disease process. Family history, past and present illness, emotional difficulties, individual sensitivities and many other aspects of the patient are discussed. The homeopath assists the patient to understand how seemingly separate symptoms can be related. The homeopath then chooses a homeopathic medicine that matches as closely as possible the symptoms.
Homeopathy is not herbalism or naturopathy. While we do use many of the same natural substances homeopathic medicines are uniquely different from naturopathic products because of the way they are made.

How do you know they work?

There is an abundance of evidence for their effectiveness:
• 200 years of case reports
• Sequences of case reports i.e a series of cases of patients with the same clinical condition           
• Numerous placebo-controlled clinical trials

TOP 10 Reasons to Use Homeopathy

 

TOP 10 Reasons to Use Homeopathy

1. NATURAL ACTION

Homeopathy works by stimulating the body’s own natural defence mechanism to promote health and to resist infection and susceptibility to disease. Although gentle, the results can be powerful and long-lasting.

2. HEALTH & WELL-BEING

Homeopathy improves health generally, rather than merely alleviating localized symptoms. It treats the whole individual, acting on the mental and emotional levels as well as on the physical level, providing a balance in overall health and an increased sense of well-being and quality of life.

3. EFFECTIVE MEDICINE

When used correctly, homeopathy can be an extremely effective system of medicine, providing long-lasting relief from many acute and chronic conditions and illnesses.

4. NOT TESTED ON ANIMALS

Homeopathic medicines are tested only on healthy humans in order to determine the range of action of each remedy.

5. RAPID FIRST-AID RELIEF

Homeopathy can be safely used at home or on the road to provide rapid relief for many minor problems such as bruises, simple burns, sprains and strains, insect bites, gastric upsets, etc. However more serious or long-lasting complaints should be treated by a qualified homeopath.

6. NO HARMFUL SIDE EFFECTS

Homeopathic treatment offers a gentle and non-invasive approach to health. When used correctly, it produces no toxic side effects, no dependency or addiction, and no withdrawal.

7. COST EFFECTIVE

Homeopathic medicines are surprisingly inexpensive to purchase, especially when compared to the cost of over-the-counter and prescription drugs.”

8. COMPLEMENTARY MEDICINE

Homeopathy can be used independently or along with conventional drugs and other therapies (with the full knowledge of all healthcare providers). It often can alleviate the unpleasant side effects of conventional treatments (e.g., chemotherapy).

9. ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY

Homeopathy has no adverse impact on the environment. There is no waste of energy or natural resources in the manufacturing process and no pollution of the water supply, oceans, or dump sites when used. In fact, homeopathy is the ultimate green medicine!

10. MEDICINE OF THE FUTURE

Homeopathy is available in most countries and is gaining in popularity as an effective alternative to conventional medicine.


Homeopathy: the Ultimate Green Medicine

The World Health Organization (WHO) identifies homeopathy as the second most popular system of alternative medicine in the world. It is also widely recognized for its natural and environmentally-friendly approach to health. Almost all homeopathic remedies are made from natural substances such as plants, minerals, and animal products. Most of the animal-based remedies are humanely-sourced and no animals are involved in testing the remedies.                                                

An important feature about homeopathy is its lack of adverse impact on the environment. Neither the manufacture nor use of homeopathic remedies produces any residual pollution of the water supply, oceans, or dump sites. Manufacturing is completely sustainable, involving a minimum use of energy and no release of toxins affecting the environment. The unique manufacturing process can produce many thousands of doses from a single very small original source. As a result, homeopathic remedies cost very little to make or purchase and they can last for many decades.


Did you know?

Homeopathy is safe for all ages, from infants to the very elderly. Homeopathy offers safe and gentle care for women and their baby during pregnancy and childbirth. Homeopathy can be prescribed alongside other forms of medicine. 

Homeopathy can be effective treating not only people, but pets, livestock, and even plants as well. 

The basics of homeopathy can be learned at home for treating first aid and many minor conditions that affect yourself, your family and pets. There are many high-quality studies published in respected international journals that provide evidence that homeopathy works effectively in many situations.

Homeopathy has been used by the British Royal family for over a century and the current patron of the Faculty of Homeopathy is Prince Charles.

FAQs

What Is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is an effective scientific form of medicine that originated in Germany. It was developed by Dr Samuel Hahnemann about 200 years ago and is now successfully practiced world wide. The World Health Organization has stated that Homeopathy is now the second most used medicine in the world today. Dr Hahnemann found, through personal experience, trials and keen observation, that substances which produce certain symptoms when taken by a healthy person, were capable of removing those same symptoms in an ill person. He observed that these substances increased in effectiveness when diluted and succussed [shaken]. Homeopathic remedies stimulate and assist the body’s own natural ability to heal itself. Because the emphasis is on the whole person, mental, emotional and physical, the effect is an overall elevation of health, vitality and wellbeing. Homeopathy recognizes that health is not merely the absence of unpleasant symptoms; it is an inherent feeling of aliveness and potential. Therefore, homeopathy can be beneficial to anyone who feels that their quality of life is hampered in any way.

Who Uses Homeopathy?

Millions of people worldwide use homeopathy, including orthodox doctors, with many referring their patients to homeopaths. There are several homeopathic hospitals in Britain under the N.H.S. Also the Royal family are patrons and users of homeopathy, knowing it is both safe and natural.    
Homeopathy is often the choice of football stars, famous actors and actresses, Olympic athletes and those requiring a drug free medication. Even Florence Nightingale and Charles Darwin used Homeopathy.

Many Ask. What Can Be Treated With Homeopathy?

Homeopathy can treat most disorders that you would go to the doctor for.
Homeopathy treats chronic, long standing, illnesses for example allergies; menstrual / hormonal; arthritis; eczema; asthma and other female and male health concerns. Also acute or short term problems like coughs, colds & flu’ etc. are brought to a halt or reduced very quickly.
Homeopathy often goes much deeper than other modalities by treating the mental and emotional disturbances that are often associated with disease. This can include phobias; anxieties; depression and behavioural problems in children.
Homeopathy is very safe to be taken during pregnancy and childbirth and is often used by midwives. Morning sickness is quickly relieved with homeopathy with no harm done to the unborn foetus.

What Does The Consultation Involve?

Homeopathy treats the person as an individual rather than a disease label. An in-depth consultation, for a chronic complaint may take up to two hours. Less time is required for an acute disorder, usually no more than three quarters of an hour to an hour.
In order for us to find your specific remedy we will need to know what makes you and your complaint unique and how your illness affects you. We will cover many areas, medical history of you and your family, your likes and dislikes and your reactions to stress. Never be afraid of mentioning what seem like unrelated   symptoms, often these lead us to your specific remedy.
What you tell us is strictly confidential and we are very professional in all that we do. This you can be assured of.
We will need to know what other medicines you have been prescribed. As your health improves you may be able to reduce your medications but this will only be done in consultation with your doctor.

What Will The Treatment Be Like?

After the consultation the homeopath will find your unique remedy. This clinic usually dispenses the remedy either as a liquid or tablet to be dissolved under the tongue. Often it is sufficient to give only one dose to stimulate your body’s own healing power and start the process of recovery over the next few weeks or months. You will be given instructions of when and how to take the remedy, also on what and what not to take during the course of treatment. You will be asked to store your remedies away from other harmful strong smelling substances etc.

What Can I expect To Happen?

Responses to the remedies vary from patient to patient. Often there is a  sense of well being and increased energy, sometimes there are gradual changes over a period of time, often subtle changes are forgotten until reminded of at the follow up consultation. Occasionally there is a slight aggravation of the symptoms which is followed by an improvement; this is a positive sign to the homeopath, as the body has been stimulated towards healing itself.
Chronic complaints that have come on slowly usually take longer to heal as can only be expected. Whereas acute problems come on quickly and so they resolve quickly.
Sometimes as part of the healing process there is a discharge, like a runny nose or increased perspiration, heightened emotions or vivid dreams. This is all part of the cleansing action. This can be prolonged if there has been a history of steroids etc.

So Far So Good – What Happens Next?

There are as many responses to homeopathic treatment as there are people. Here at East Bay Homeopathy we are qualified and skilled at monitoring your response and able to evaluate your progress. Subsequent treatment is determined by your response to the remedy. Therefore it is of great value to remain in close contact with your homeopath to ensure continuing improvement of your health.
In chronic cases, be patient. For any deep healing to take place it can sometimes be a slow process.
