In a nutshell, Homeopathy is a gentle, complete system of natural medicine. Patients are treated as a whole, not only for the medical complaint they present with. Homeopaths observe that homeopathic medicines appear to stimulate the individual's natural ability to self-heal and reduce the intensity of presenting symptoms.

The "medicines" used in homeopathy are called remedies. Homeopathic remedies are highly diluted quantities of substances derived from a variety of plants, minerals and other materials. They are specifically prescribed to suit the patient and their individual needs. They are prepared in licensed laboratories under strict control.
Conventional medicine usually relies on your physical symptoms without addressing the underlying imbalance in your body, then uses drugs to stop or suppress your symptoms, often leading to further side effects. In contrast, homeopathic remedies work on the whole picture of your symptoms and aims to get to the root cause to restore your balance.
Most definitely! Homeopathy is a safe yet dynamic therapy, that is both effective and easy to administer. The medicines are given in either sucrose pills or in liquid form and may be safely taken with conventional medicines. Homeopathy can be used from birth onwards and is also safe to use in pregnancy.
