Homeopathy is an effective therapy that helps your body to help itself.
It was developed 200 years ago by the German doctor Samuel Hahnemann and has since been well documented and researched.
Remedies are used to address the underlying cause of your complaint in order to achieve a lasting improvement in your health and wellbeing.
During a consultation we will focus not just on your presenting symptoms but on you as a whole. This means that together we will look at all levels of your being - mental, emotional and physical. Your personal and family medical history is also considered.
All this helps me to find the most suitable remedy for you as an individual rather than for whatever named disease you may have come. This means that somebody else with the same diagnosis may be prescribed a completely different remedy.

Remedies are made from minute amounts of natural substances from the plant,
animal or mineral kingdoms, are non-toxic, non-habit-forming, and have a pleasant taste. They are not tested on animals.

The remedy will be sent to you in the post after your appointment. Often you may find you have only been sent one pill. This is because the remedy acts as a catalyst for change. It gives mind/body the information it needs to help itself.

Homeopathy has often helped people with conditions such as:

Stubborn or recurrent problems, skin complaints
Menstrual/menopausal problems,
Digestive disorders such as IBS,
Migraines, rheumatism, arthritis, high blood pressure, sleeplessness,...
Emotional difficulties such as prolonged grief, trauma, anxiety,
Behavioural problems in children,…
Injuries such as wounds, bruises, sprains, strains,…

Kinesiology

It is a gentle and 'holistic' method of
healing that combines the ancient Chinese concepts and wisdom of acupuncture - the main one being its understanding of the flow of energy in the body - with the more modern techniques and concepts of
Chiropractic and Osteopathy.
Using muscle testing as a language to
communicate with the inner functioning of our bodies and also with our subconscious mind we can detect systemic, structural and bio-chemical imbalances and thought patterns or emotions that hold us back or lead to health problems. All of these can then be positively influenced using various techniques.

As well as in its own right I use kinesiology in combination with either homeopathy or reflexology as it is very useful in finding out about food sensitivities, toxicity, deficiencies and all sorts of other things that if addressed will speed up the healing process. This may involve staying off certain foods temporarily, the use of remedies and/or supplements and other self-help measures you can do at home between appointments.

Reflexology

Reflexology is a gentle, yet powerful therapy that boosts your body's own healing power. I use my hands to apply light pressure to the 'reflex' points of your feet or hands. These points relate to the organs and parts of your body.
Treatment is non-ticklish and pleasant to receive.

Reflexology:
Is deeply relaxing
Improves circulation and digestion
Increases elimination of toxins
Strengthens the immune system
Gives you more energy
Improves mental and emotional well-being
Can help with a wide variety of health problems

All three therapies

Are safe to be used by young and old and can be helpful during pregnancy.
Can be used alongside conventional treatment which should only be reduced or stopped in consultation with your doctor.

About myself

I became interested in complementary medicine after conventional medicine had failed to help me with my own prolonged emotional (depression) and physical ill-health and then even more so after the birth of my son Luke in 1993.
I qualified as a homeopath and reflexologist in the year 2000 and am registered with the Alliance of Registered Homeopaths and a member of the Association of Reflexologists. I adhere to the strict codes of ethics of these organisations.
I have since completed a course in counselling skills and a foundation course (including some additional modules) in kinesiology with The Academy of Systematic Kinesiology.
My further personal and professional development is very important to me. This includes post-graduate study, attending seminars on a regular basis and looking after my own health and happiness.
