What is Homœopathy?
Homœopathy, often inaccurately spelled as 'Homeopathy' is a comprehensive and truly holistic system of medicine. The medicines (or remedies) contain trace elements of the active ingredient in a specially prepared form. These gentle preparations boost a person's wellbeing by dynamically evoking the internal healing response. Homœopathic remedies effectively treat a vast range of symptoms, from acute complaints (eg. coughs, colds, fevers and injuries) to chronic conditions (eg. asthma, eczema, migraines and arthritis) and a broad range of mental and emotional symptoms (eg. forgetfulness, panic attacks, mood swings and unresolved psychological trauma).
If you wish to experience a Homoeopathy consultation at the Clinic, phone 8423-8444 an appointment. (Located at 52 Nicholson Street, St. Leonards)
