What is Homeopathy ?
Homeopathy is a specialised natural medicine. Homeopathic medicine is prescribed on a collective set of symptoms and individualised to each patient.
It is based on the principal that "like cures like"; a substance, taken in small amounts, will cure the same symptoms the substance causes, if it was ingested undiluted in large amounts.
For example, caffeine is a stimulant that can cause temporary insomnia. The homeopathic Coffee remedy - Coffea - which contains caffeine, may be used in minute "potentised" doses, in order to relieve the symptoms of insomnia.
This theory was advanced in the late eighteenth century by German Physician Dr Samuel Hahnemann.
Homeopathic remedies are made from many different natural sustances. These include plant material, minerals, metals and some animal material such as venoms and animal milks. Many of theses substances have been and still are used in many conventional medicines.
Homeopathy is one of the two most widely used forms of medicine today. People all over the world are discovering the benefits of a system of medicine that is safe, effective and treats them as unique individuals.
Homeopathy is a complete system of medicine that treats mental, emotional and physical illness.

So Why Choose Homeopathy?
Although these substances are and have been used conventionally over the years, a lot of general medicines have lists of side affects that can stress other parts of the body or bring about further problems.
With Homeopathy, because the sustances used are highly diluted hundreds of times, this renders them much safer than conventional medicine whilst still being effective.
Homeopathy can address most conditions, both physical and emotional, and is highly effective in the treatment of children and babies, and safe to use during pregnancy.
