What is homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a 228 year old complementary medicine founded by German physician Samuel Hahnemann and is considered to be the second most widely used form of medicine in the world, and used by more than 200 million people worldwide on a regular basis.
Homeopathic remedies work on the theory that they stimulate your body's own natural healing responses in order for your body to heal itself. ​The remedies are natural and organic sucrose pills and contain the energetic imprint of the original substance, making homeopathy safe, non-toxic and free from unpleasant side effects.
It is a natural, holistic and incredibly effective approach to health that treats the person as a whole, looking at all your symptoms, personality and health history together as a whole, rather than each symptom separately or separate to you.
Symptoms are our body's 'notification sound' to let us know deeper issues are going on in the body. As a practical homeopath my role is to look into the possible root causes of your symptoms, and how your symptoms present uniquely to you, in order to select the right remedies.
Homeopaths recognise the theory that toxicity from chemicals, and suppressed emotions from life events, are held in layers in the body, which build up throughout the course of your life. Homeopaths also recognise the theory that most emotional and physical ailments are caused by either chemical toxicity or suppressed emotions held in the body, along with susceptibility to certain ailments due to genetic predisposition. This is why healing with homeopathy is often compared to peeling back layers of an onion. You are the onion.
What happens during your session?
Your one-to-one consultation will be held in a relaxed, professional and judgement-free space, and will allow plenty of time for you to talk about anything that has been going on with your mental or physical health.
Your first consultation is longer (approx 1.5 hrs) as I will be taking down detailed information about your health history, and a bit about your family's too, in order to get an idea of your life's 'timeline', like the onion above. This includes any past treatment you may have had. Your timeline helps me work out what may have caused your symptoms, which helps me select more specific remedies that are right for you.
As a licensed homeopath I look at you as a whole person, rather than only focusing on your main symptom(s), so I'll be asking you questions about other symptoms you're experiencing as well. You can disclose any information you feel comfortable sharing. Everyone experiences symptoms differently so I'll be asking about what time of day it feels worse, what makes it better or worse, and how you experience the symptom, eg. what kind of pain or sensation. I'll also be asking about topics such as whether you tend to feel warm or chilly, your digestion, food and drink cravings, sleep and energy levels.
​
I'm very used to talking about a huge range of body processes, so you can be rest assured this will be an open space for you to talk and I will be listening with a professional ear. ​
I am bound by a strict code of confidentiality so your information will be kept completely private.
​
From time to time I'll be consulting with an outside homeopathic supervisor in order to gain an alternative opinion on your case, but I will only do this after asking your permission.
​
Each session includes your remedies and postage & packaging within the UK.
Please see info at the bottom of the page regarding prescriptions outside the UK.
What happens after your session?
I spend time writing up your timeline, or adding to it, reviewing your case and carefully selecting your personalised prescription.
I then prepare your prescription and post it out to you, if you are based in the UK.
I'll be here if you need to reach out. Working with me includes approx. 15 minutes of email or phone support between consultations.
​
Getting started
​
For chronic conditions (those you've had longer than 2 weeks) I recommend starting with a minimum of 3 to 4 appointments. For best results I recommend seeing me approximately every 4-5 weeks, but these can be spaced out longer if needed.
I offer one-to-one appointments via video call, which you can book using the button below.
If you prefer you can also contact me directly to book in and make payment via BACS or card payment link instead.
I recommend booking in for a free inital chat first, which will take place via video call and you can ask me any questions and I can find out more about the help you need. We can then decide if we'd be the right fit.
If you prefer to chat over email that also works well.
​
Prescriptions outside the UK
If you're based outside the UK, for example if you're living somewhere else in Europe, or US based, but would like to work on your health together, this process would involve you researching into homeopathic pharmacies in your area, or seeking out someone local with a remedy making machine, such as a homeopathy student. Any questions about this at all please feel free to contact me here, to see if I can help.
​
I look forward to hearing from you.
