Here
is a bio so you can see who I am and who I have studied with:
I am an experienced homeopath having been studying and practising
homeopathy for the last 8 years. I graduated from the Lakeland
College of Homeopathy and have had the good fortune to have
studied with internationally acclaimed practitioners such as
Ian
Watson (co-founder of the Lakeland College of Homeopathy),
Ian
White, Steve
Johnson and Arthur
Bailey. With extensive additional experience in nutrition
and herbal medicine, I run regular workshops on health and personal
development including pregnancy & childbirth, woman wellness,
first aid, Rei-ki and meditation. I
also run "grass roots" (introductory) courses in Homeopathy
under the aegis of the Lakeland College of Homeopathy. I regularly
contribute articles to health journals and homeopathic publications
and run business seminars for homeopaths. Before becoming a
homeopath, I worked both in the UK and abroad in Sales and Marketing
for over fifteen years in several board level positions.

on to find out a little about what homeopathy can do for you:
HOMEOPATHY
How
is Homeopathy different?
Homeopathy
has a holistic approach to the cure of illness: it treats
the whole person, not just the disease by strengthening our
immunity and natural healing abilities on all levels - physical,
mental and emotional.
Homeopathy
- what is it?
Homeopathy
is a system of medicine developed in its present form by a German
physician, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843). It is based on
the law of similars, Similia Similibus Curentur, which
translates as 'Like Cures Like'. This means that a substance,
which when given in its raw form to a healthy person produces
certain symptoms, can, homeopathically diluted, cure the same
symptoms in a sick person. For example, the homeopathic remedy
Coffea (coffee) is used to treat insomnia, while Apis (derived
from the bee) is used to treat stings and similar histamine
reactions.
Healing
Homeopathically
A
healthy body is naturally programmed to self-heal - consider
how when you cut yourself the body redirects its resources to
heal the wound. When this capacity for self-healing is compromised,
due to factors such as stress, adverse environmental conditions
or poor nutrition, the body cannot cope on its own. Homeopathic
remedies work by stimulating the body's immune system to balance
and restore itself so it can successfully overcome infections
and disease.
Homeopathic
remedies are made from minute quantities of substances which
have been specially processed to ensure that any toxic effects
of the original substance have been removed and only the curative
properties remain.
How
can homeopathy help me?
Properly
prescribed and used, homeopathic remedies are safe, non-toxic
and non-addictive and can treat both acute and chronic complaints.
They
can be administered to babies, young children, during pregnancy
or for nursing mothers and the elderly. If necessary, remedies
can be taken alongside drugs prescribed by the doctor and will
not interfere with their beneficial action.
