Take the Homeopath to health
What is homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a natural, safe, gentle, non-invasive, holistic and comprehensive system of medicine.
Homeopathy works by administering small doses of natural substances that match the person's symptoms and their needs.
Homeopathic remedies stimulate the body's own healing mechanisms.
With homeopathy each individual's set of symptoms and their causes are taken into account. Homeopathy treats the individual and not just the disease name itself.
How it works:
Each remedy is unique and acts as a template of information that helps the body when it has got stuck in a rut and it helps the body to move on.
Natural Remedies:
Homeopathy uses natural remedies, which are safe, non-toxic and are non-addictive.
Remedies do not interfere with prescribed medication and can still be of benefit when used alongside conventional medicine
The remedies are either made of small sugary pills that dissolve on the tongue or drops.
Homeopathy is suitable for everyone.
It is suitable for people of all ages with different lifestyles from small babies, children, teenagers, pregnant women, housewives, and busy stressed career people through to the retired and elderly
History of homeopathy:
The founder of homeopathy was a German doctor, Samuel Hahnemann who died in 1843.
Homeopathy has been successfully treating people for over a hundred years and there are 5 NHS homeopathic hospitals in the UK alone.

Like Cures like:
One of the basic principals of homeopathy is like cures like. An example of this is that coffea is an excellent remedy for someone who can't sleep, is over excited and their brain is in overdrive at night
