Homeopathy focuses on the individual, concentrating on treating your specific physical and emotional symptoms, to give long-lasting benefits.
Homeopathy can offer health care, which is both effective and extremely economical
Did you know?
Homeopathy is the second largest system of medicine in the world today, as recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO).
How does is work?
Homeopathy is a gentle, natural therapeutic system that not only heals physical ailments, but also touches the soul. Hence it is based on affection for our patients, respect for the human condition, and compassion towards the foibles and weaknesses of humanity.
“Like cures like”
Homeopathy is based on the principle that you can treat ‘like with like’, that is, a substance which causes symptoms when taken in large doses, can be used in small amounts to treat similar symptoms.
A perfect example: drinking too much coffee can cause sleeplessness and agitation, so according to this principle, when made into a homeopathic medicine, it could be used to treat people with these symptoms.
The same concept is sometimes used in medicine: we use stimulants such as Ritalin to treat ADHD, or small doses of allergens (sometimes pollen) to de-sensitive allergic patients.
