Homeopathy in Sydney

Homeopathy is a holistic system of medicine which treats the person as a unique individual. A homeopath will not look at physical, emotional, mental or spiritual symptoms separately, but regard them as intimately connected, since all are aspects of the whole person. A human being is an integrated system maintained by an energy flow. Ill health stems from a blockage in this energy flow, which will affect all facets of a person.

The highest ideal of medicinal therapy is to restore health rapidly, gently and permanently; to remove and destroy the whole disease in the shortest, surest and least harmful way, according to clearly, comprehensible principles. So it was that Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), the founder of present day homeopathy, defined his goals for a 'new' system of medicine.

Homeopathic Remedies

Homeopathic remedies work by gently stimulating this healing energy, thus enhancing the persons natural, inborn drive towards balance and well being.

Homeopathic remedies are prepared by a method known as potentization whereby the energy latent in the medicine is liberated and increased. The process imprints the characteristic energy pattern, or blueprint, of the original substance into the remedy. There is abundant proof, over the last 200 years, that the remedies are effective in treating all manner of illness.

A homeopath will prescribe different remedies during different stages of a health problem. For example an certain remedy may be prescribed for an acute problem such as a cold, then a little later a constitutional remedy might be prescribed to improve the overall health and well being of the person.

Homeopathy and Illness?

Homeopathy can help to heal a person with serious health issues as a compliment to orthodox medicine. For example, homeopathy may help a person to improve sleep patterns and appetite, while reducing anxiety and depression, without interfering with other medical treatment. As homeopathic medicine helps to improve the well being of the whole person, it may also assist to alleviate other health problems and their symptoms.

Homeopathy is effective for a vast array of physical and emotional problems which may include:

Childhood Anxiety and Depression
Ear, Nose and Throat Problems
ADHD
Childhood Behavioural Problems
Teething
Childhood Learning Difficulties
Stress Management
Asthma
Menopause
Pregnancy
Post Natal Issues
Stress Management for Parents
Early Childhood problems
Allergies, Hayfever and Sinusitis
Digestive Problems
Headache and Migraine
Influenza and other Viral Illnesses
Insomnia
Arthritis
Traumatic Injury

Homeopathy is also helpful during pregnancy, when many pharmaceuticals are contraindicated, and for patients who are sensitive to, or who refuse to take, conventional medications.

The Homeopathic Consultation

The first homeopathic consultation usually takes one hour to one and a half hours. Subsequent consultations will last 30 to 40 minutes. Consultations are confidential.

A homeopath will ask you questions about your past and present health, life experiences, patterns of health in your family and your personal characteristics. This will include looking at the physical, mental and emotional aspects which make you a unique individual.

You may be given a single dose of a homeopathic remedy, or repeated doses of a that remedy. Where an illness has developed over a long period of time, several treatments may be necessary over a period of months. Whereas in acute (short term) conditions, results may be gained very quickly.

Recovery takes place in different ways depending on the nature and history of your condition. Generally you will notice an increase in energy and well being during your recovery.
