Homeopathy

Homeopathy is based on the theory of “like cures like”. Similar to the philosophy of vaccines, a homeopath will give a patient a substance, that when taken in its pure form, will give the same symptom picture that the patient has. This has a gentle, guiding effect to help direct the body's healing ability.

Homeopathic medicines are different than traditional medicines. Since they are used in minute doses, there are no side effects, are safe for infants, children and pregnant women, and can be used along with traditional medicines. The medicines are trying to provoke a curative reaction in the body, rather than suppressing the body's reaction.

A homeopathic interview is very in depth and will include sleeping patterns, food desires, emotional changes and physical complaints.

Homeopathy has seen a recent renaissance. This is due to not only the effectiveness of the medicines, but the gentle curative effects that they have. Homeopathy treats not just physical symptoms, but emotional and psychological symptoms as well. In fact, a well-selected remedy will encompass multiple symptoms and bring about a resolution of the problems.
