Common Questions
What is a homeopathic remedy like?
Homeopathic remedies are prepared
from natural sources, they may be derived from plants, minerals, or insects.
They are diluted, vigorously
shaken
and mixed ('succussed') many times to create an end product that
will be a safe and appropriate remedy.
How are homeopathic remedies taken?
Homeopathic remedies are usually given by mouth in the form of tablets
or powders.
What homeopathy is not
Homeopathy aims to treat the whole person and
not merely the symptoms of a condition or known disease. Homeopaths do
not make a diagnosis
and I will always refer you to your GP if I think further investigations
are required. Although many patients experience a great improvement
in their state of health after only a short period of treatment, homeopathy
does not provide 'magic bullets’. Generally, some level of commitment
to a course of treatment will be required.
