What is Homeopathy

Homeopathy is a system of natural medicine that has been used worldwide for over 200 years. It is recognized by the World Health Organization as the second most widely used therapeutic system in the world. Millions of people benefit from homeopathy.

Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, the Founder of Homeopathy, was a medical doctor and a chemist who became disenchanted with harsh and ineffective medical interventions of the time. Through scientific experimentation and the application of inductive reasoning, Hahnemann created the homeopathic system of medicine.

Homeopathy is founded on two main principles:

  1. Like cures like - a remedy is prescribed with similar symptoms to the client's symptoms

  2. Minimal dose (is given to stimulate the body's ability to heal itself)

What to expect 

Homeopathy treats people, NOT their diagnoses. When a person is ill, that illness has a unique pattern (for each person). Everyone tends to get sick in a way that corresponds to their heredity, environment, stressors and weaknesses that are unique to them, and only them. Treatment is always individualized so that the the body is stimulated to that health is restored.

Your homeopath will:

  • use minute doses the chosen remedy to stimulate your body's ability to heal itself

  • ask you to be aware and notes of any changes you observe in your physical, emotional and spiritual well-being

  • treat you with an individualized health plan

  • review all of your symptoms (during an initial consult) or some of your symptoms (during an acute consult)

  • suggest lifestyle changes as needed

Homeopathic Counselling

We create a space where the client can share their 'story'. How a client experiences an event or life, is more important than their symptoms of asthma or rash. We interpret the story, in the different ways it has been told repetitively throughout the initial consultation. This repetition or pattern leads us to the remedy.  However it is not just the remedy that is healing. It is also the relationship with your homeopath, and the desire to be heard and understood that makes healing inevitable. The belief and knowing that homeopathy makes a difference is an amazing combination of medicine and 'psychotherapy'.

Remedies

Homeopathic remedies are prepared from diluted substances, such as plants, minerals or animals, which are repeatedly diluted and succussed (vigorously shaken). As this standardized  method of dilution and succussion continues, the remedy becomes more powerful. This process is called potentization and it is 'the' essence of all homeopathic remedies.

Remedies can come in many different forms such as pellets, as you can see in the picture or liquid, along with suggestions for supplements, sunshine, exercise, sleep and others to help with your healing.

Initial Full Consultations

(totality of symptoms are reviewed)

As a Homeopath, I will look for the healing remedy - the ones that produces in a healthy person, symptoms that is most similar to those which distinguishes the patient from all others, suffering from the same ailment. Like cures like also known as similia similibus curentur - implies strict individualization.

During your consultation, you will report all your current symptoms including complaints, sensations, , mental & emotional feelings, appetite, pain, and so much more. Homeopathic consultations provide the client with 2 hours of sharing their medical conditions and any factors that may be affecting their health, followed by a few clarifying questions, so that the correct remedy can be chosen.

Follow-up Consultations

How to Report Symptoms

Describe all the mental or emotional feelings as it relates  to every physical symptom you experience. These feelings will be included in your remedy selection. The more detailed your symptoms are the better to ensure the correct remedy is chosen to begin your healing process.

Some factors to consider:

  • did the symptoms come on gradually or quickly

  • what were the symptoms when you first noticed them, and how have they changed since

  • what was happening in your life just prior to noticing these symptoms

  • how have the symptoms changed over time
