WHO COMES FOR HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENTS?

People seeing a homeopath may come with a diagnosis of: Allergies, Eczema, Migraines, Children’s problems – both behavioural & physical, Migraines, and Hormonal problems. Most conditions can be treated : allergies, arthritis, asthma, bronchitis, colitis, coughs, Crohn’s disease, dermatitis, depression, diabetes, eating disorders, eczema, hay fever, headaches, hormonal problems,hyperactivity, menopause, migraine, nausea, panic attacks, post viral syndrome, PMT, psoriasis, recurrent infections, rhinitis, sinusitis, stress, tiredness and vomiting may be treated homeopathically.

HOW EFFECTIVE IS IT?

During 1997, I did an audit on my practice. Results showed that 90% of patients who attended 3 times over a 3 month period, showed between 50% & 100% improvement, both in their sense of well being, and in their main complaint. See above for conditions treated.

WHAT IS HOMOEOPATHY?

In Homeopathy we do not treat diseases per se, we treat the people who are suffering from diseases. The Homeopathic remedy aims to cause a reaction in the patient, the reaction intensifies the patient’s response to the problem. Professor George Vithoulkas recently stated that Homeopathy is the deepest and yet most gentle stimulation possible for the human immune system (it also works on animals).[su_expand more_text=”Read more” less_text=”Close“ height=”1″ more_icon=”https://www.radar-uk.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/favicon.ico” less_icon=”https://www.radar-uk.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/favicon.ico”]
Medicines have always been used in a homeopathic way, though the term homeopathy is only a little over 200 years old. It literally means treating like with like. Although the body is always trying balance itself, it sometimes mounts an incorrect immune response, or “runs the wrong program”. It seems that often our bodies will run “old programs” that they have previously found effective in similar circumstances. This may then lead to a pattern where the same symptoms keep recurring, with the body seemingly unable to help itself, eg asthma, eczema etc The homeopathic remedy gives the body the correct information, so that it can make a better immune response, or adapt better to the problem. The result is a reduction in symptoms and a feeling of increased well-being, as the body begins to cure itself.[/su_expand]

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE ?

The initial problem may be resolved with the first treatment. Typically three visits are necessary, at monthly intervals. Many people having experienced the good results of homeopathy, make it their medicine of choice.

Tablet / pilule form

Remedies should not be handled, except by the patient. This avoids the risk of spoiling the remedy. They may however be crushed between two teaspoons for infants. Remedies should be dissolved under the tongue, rather than swallowed, and no food or drink taken for at least 15 minutes either side of remedy.

Liquid form (LM potency)

If a liquid is prescribed it will usually be in LM potency. Place 3 drops in half a glass of previously boiled or spring water. Stir the glass, and take one teaspoon of the mixture. Discard the rest.

If no ill effects are noted, this dose may be taken direct from the bottle after a few days, and increased to twice daily to speed recovery.

Tap the bottle on the palm 8 times between doses.

Coffee, mint, and strong smelling medicinal substances, such as camphor,eucalyptus, etc. should be avoided between appointments, as these can antidote the remedy.

Remember that the action of the remedy can continue for several weeks, or even months[/su_expand]

PHONE IN TIMES

Early in the day is the best time to phone (before 9.30). Please say if your call is urgent.
