Homeopathy is a natural and gentle system of medicine that works by stimulating the body’s own healing responses with the use of non-pharmaceutical medicines. The holistic nature of Homeopathy means that the mind-body connection is considered central in the causation and healing of disease. Treatment is not based on symptoms alone but how those symptoms effect you as an individual. A prescription is then based on the mind, body and spirit of an individual with the goal of targeting the root cause of an ailment for genuine relief and long lasting benefits. Remedies are made from plants, metals, minerals and various other substances which are then highly diluted and given in tablet form. It works on the premise that ‘like cures like’ which means that a small dose of a substance will cure the same symptoms it causes if taken in large amounts. ​ For example, the remedy Coffea can be given for insomnia where large amounts of coffee would keep you awake and the remedy Apis which is made from Bee stings is given to reduce similar symptoms like swelling and stinging. Homeopathy’s gentle nature means that it can be used in pregnancy and on babies and children without risk of side effects. ​ Used by 200 million people worldwide, studies have shown its effectiveness when compared with placebo and pharmaceutical drugs with no side effects.
