HOMEOPATHY

HayleyHomeopathy recognises that all symptoms of ill health are expressions of disharmony within the whole person and that it is the patient who needs treatment not the disease.

What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is from the Greek word meaning "similar suffering".

In 1796 a German doctor, Samuel Hahnemann, realised that there were two ways of treating ill health, the way of opposites and the way of similars.

homeopathyFor example in a case of insomnia the way of opposites (conventional medicine), is to treat by giving a drug to bring on artificial sleep. The way of similars, the homeopathic way, is to give the patient a minute dose of a substance, such as coffee, which in large doses casuses sleeplessness in a healthy person,. Perhaps surprisingly this will enable the patient to sleep naturally.

How does a Homeopath Treat You?
Your homeopath will give you a homeopathic medicine or remedy which matches your symptoms as you experience them. This also takes account of you as a person - your individual characteristics emotionally as well as physically.

Homeopathic remedies cannot cause side-effects and you can not become addicted to them. This is because only a very minute amount of the active ingredient is used in a specially prepared form.

How Does it Work?

Homeopathic remedies work by stimulating the body's own healing power. This stimulus will assist your own system to clear itself of any expressions of imbalance. The aim is to get you to a level of health so that eventually you will need infrquent treatment.
