The use of homeopathic medicines - popularly known as remedies - is based on the discovery that a natural substance is capable of curing the same symptoms that it can cause. By studying the symptoms produced when a healthy individual tests or "proves" a remedy, homeopaths can determine which symptoms that remedy is capable of curing. This is referred to as the "law of Similars" or "like cure likes".

Remedies are prepared from diluted substances, such as plants, minerals or animal products, which are repeatedly diluted and sucussed.

Classical homeopathy is based on the selection of a single remedy that most closely matches your symptoms at a particular time and then waiting to observe your response before administering another remedy. This method focuses on the underlying disturbance or disease that causes the symptoms, rather than the symptoms themselves. Classical homeopathic treatment is sometimes referred to as constitutional prescribing.

Homeopathy has been widely used for over 200 years. It is a respected form of medicine in many parts of the world, especially in Europe, India and South America, where it is commonly used in clinics and hospitals. In England, the Queen has a homeopathic physician.

In recent decades many people have turned to alternative forms of medicine to avoid side effects from conventional treatment and stop the suppression these medicines produce.

Homeopathy can be effective in treating virtually any health issue, from allergies to zoster ( shingles), regardless of whether the origin is physical, mental or emotional. The diagnosis is less important than your unique symptoms. By matching a remedy to your particular symptoms, your homeopath is treating you, not the disease.

The first interview with the patient usually takes over 2 hours after which the correct remedy will be given to him.

Follow up sessions will follow after approximately 6 weeks to evaluate the remedy's action and continue to support the patient on his way to health.
