Homeopathy

Stimulating Self-Healing

Stimulating the Body’s own Healing Potential

Homeopathy is an effective and scientific system of healing which assists the natural tendency of the body to heal itself. It recognises that all symptoms of ill health are expressions of disharmony within the whole person and that it is the patient who needs treatment not the disease.

How it works

The practice of homeopathy has been established for over 200 years, and remedies act by stimulating the body’s own healing potential. This stimulus will assist your own system to clear itself of any expressions of imbalance. The aim is to get you to a level of health so that eventually you will need infrequent treatment.

It is recommended that you maintain your relationship with your GP who can arrange any tests or X-rays you might need, and by working in this way the two systems of health care can provide complementary services.

FAQs

Recommendation for treatment frequency?

After an initial consultation, clients are advised to have a follow up appointment approximately 4-6 weeks later to review progress, dependent on presenting symptoms and condition.

Who is Homeopathy beneficial for?

Homeopathy can be helpful in a wide range of conditions, both physical and emotional, from infants through to the elderly.

Is there anything that you recommend clients do to prepare for the Homeopathy?

In order to find the right remedy for you as an individual, your homeopath will need to know all about you. A detailed understanding of who you are, along with any complaints and details of how you experience them, is needed to assess your case correctly. So anything you can tell your homeopath that is typical of who you are will help this process. They will also find out about your general energy level, your past medical history in detail and the way you live. The initial consultation may last an hour or more, and anything you say will be treated in the strictest confidence.

How should I prepare for the treatment?

During your session your therapist will ask about areas that you consider require treatment, your medical history and medication you are taking. It would be helpful if you can prepare this information in advance.

Client Testimonials

I first consulted Richard after suffering a grand mal epileptic attack in March 2006. I had been treated successfully in the past for psoriasis, so was keen to use homeopathy as I knew the cause was stress, and needed to be dealt with in order to release the symptoms. I knew that Richard had given me the right remedy within days, as I felt better and more positive. Over the next few months I noticed that I no longer needed to use my asthma inhalers and my period pain dropped from 8 to 2 out of ten. What a relief on both counts!
It took a few months for the epilepsy to subside, but subside it did and I have been clear now for over two years. I understand that this is not possible with allopathic medicine, which works only to suppress the symptoms. I feel confident that I have completely released this illness, am able to drive again and notice that I deal with emotional issues more creatively and assertively than before.
Richard is a careful and empathic listener, I know I can be completely frank about my feelings and always feel supported and understood. I really appreciate his attention to detail and have complete faith in his judgment. I have referred many of my own clients to him, and always encourage them to consider homeopathic treatment.

Fifteen years ago I decided that I needed to find a good and professional homeopath with whom I could build a therapeutic relationship. Someone I could trust with my health and the health of my family. I saw a few people and decided that Richard best fitted the bill. You immediately feel comfortable in his presence. He is intuitive and his knowledge of health issues as well as homeopathy is impressive.
Richard has successfully treated us over many years. I have even contacted him out of hours in times of emergency and he has always responded. For me this marks him out as someone who has a genuine concern for the good health of his patients.
Having Richard as my family’s homeopath feels like a safety net.

Client, Bath

I have been seeing Richard for homeopathy for several years during which time he has helped me through some very serious health issues. Each time I take a remedy I feel a change. Most immediately I feel more positive and able to cope, then gradually symptoms will improve. Richard also treats my children where results can be dramatic with acute illnesses resolving in hours. Even with my teenage daughter’s multitude of complex issues, Richard seems to find a remedy that works on several levels, not only physically but helping her through those trying emotional and mental problems of teenagers.
