Homeopathy

What is homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a form of medicine that has been used with safety and success for hundreds of years. It originated in Germany and was discovered by Samuel Hahnemann. Homeopathy is a system of medicine that is based on treating the individual with highly diluted substances that trigger the body's natural system of healing. Recognizing that the whole person (mind and body) is affected when sick is the basis of this holistic medicine. Homeopathic remedies are natural and are made from plants, minerals and animals, potentized into energetic and dynamic medicine. A homeopathic remedy stimulates the body to heal itself. It can be used safely alongside pharmaceutical and herbal medicines, as there are no contraindications like there are with conventional drugs. Many pharmaceutical drugs just suppress symptoms that the body is presenting but homeopathy works on a much deeper level and helps the body to heal itself.

What can homeopathy be used for?

Homeopathy can be used for a wide range of illnesses including many types of pain, dental issues, allergies, colds, flu, ear infections, fever, cuts and abrasions, sprains and strains, etc. It can also be used to treat chronic health conditions like ADHD, asthma, autism, skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis, infertility, migraines, hormonal imbalances, depression, fibromyalgia, gastrointestinal disturbances, etc., and can be used in palliative care treatment. For any chronic health issue, working with a qualified homeopathic practitioner is key to the success and safety of the treatment.

Are homeopathic medicines safe?

Homeopathic medicine is safe for everyone including pregnant and breastfeeding women, infants, children, pets, the elderly and everyone in between. It is best to consult a qualified homeopathic practitioner for the treatment of chronic illnesses but treating acute illnesses like colds, flu, injuries and infections can be treated by using an appropriate remedy to match the acute symptoms.
