How does homeopathy work?
Homeopathic medicine stimulates the body to counteract a very small dose of medicine and react against its own symptoms. An example is the use of the remedy Coffea (coffee) to cure sleeplessness. Whereas a cup of coffee keeps a person awake when tired, a very small homeopathic dose of coffee when a person is sleepless, causes the body to counteract the stimulation of the coffee and produces sleep.
What does a homeopath do?
A homeopath is trained to understand all the symptoms of the body and mind; treating the whole person and all symptoms rather than treating the parts separately. Long lasting conditions may need a series of remedies over several months and the homeopath monitors the progress of change in symptoms. There are several thousand homeopathic remedies and Alison uses up-to-date homeopathic software to select the most relevant remedy and the most appropriate potency.
How are remedies made?
Remedies are prepared by homeopathic pharmacies (Ainsworth, Helios, Nelsons) where the original substance is diluted and shaken many times in water and ethanol. Remedies come in the form of pleasant tasting dissolving pills or liquid drops. Need more information?: More details
