Well, for me in this day and age- it’s a no brainer. We are constantly under stress, our foods are mostly GMO, full of routine anti biotics, and hormones, our infections are becoming more and more resistant to conventional treatment, our diseases require lifestyle change and all of this needs to be sustainable.

What has any of this got to do with sugar pills and magic herbs?? (Kidding) Lets address these infamous sugar pills to start.

Homeopathy and its remedies- what to expect:

The initial homeopathic consultation takes about an hour, the reason we take such a long time is to find out exactly what could be causing the main complaint/ symptom, rather than treating only the symptom on its own. We strive to find the underlying cause, as well as advising lifestyle modifications in order to sustain the ultimate goal- sustainable health. (You will hear me say this phrase often, as I think it is the future of health care: Treat the cause. Prevent further disease. Sustain your health)

Homeopathic Remedies- Sugar Pill Myth:

First point, these pills are not placebo. Our remedies are derived from ingredients (mostly from nature), that are diluted down, in a very technical and specific way (of which I won’t bore you with the details) into nano- particles. These diluted particles of the original substance will stimulate an equal and opposite reaction within your immune system to achieve homeostasis. In other words, homeopathic medicine is a form of nano medicine that helps your body help itself. Simple right?

The sugar pills we use are exactly that- well, at least they start off as sugar pills. They are usually lactose or sucrose based neutral granules or pillules, that we impregnate (coat with) the specific homeopathic remedy suited to the patients complaint/ symptoms/ constitution.

Homeopathy has been around for ages (literally) originating in the 1700’s. Modern homeopathy has evolved into a growing trend, involving patients who are looking for an alternate to conventional medicine that can be beneficial long term. Don’t get me wrong, conventional medicine has a very big place in some cases, but not always all cases. The beauty of homeopathy: it can be used in conjunction with conventional medicine, homeopathic medicine is gentle, effective, safe in pregnancy and breast feeding, and has no side effects.

Sustainable health- starts with you!WHY HOMEOPATHY?
