How homeopathy works

Homeopathy works on the principle that ‘like cures like’. A substance, if taken in its crude form causes certain symptoms; the same substance in a homeopathic preparation, is selected to address similar types of symptoms and redress the imbalance.

Homeopathic remedies are prepared through a careful process that includes multiple dilutions and succussion, or vigorous shaking.

Remedies have been researched, studied and catalogued for over 200 years so we know the wide variety of symptoms associated with each remedy. We match your symptom ‘picture’, as we see it, to the most closely related remedy or remedies.

We don’t yet know exactly how homeopathy works but life experience and ample research support its efficacy.

Homeopathy is a treatment modality of subtlety and nuance. I feel that just because we can’t see something or yet understand something does not mean it isn’t powerful.

Virginia Woolf famously said of Jane Austen: ‘Of all great writers, she is the most difficult to catch in the act of greatness’. I feel that Homeopathy too, is often hard to catch in action, but those who have it, see and feel its effects.

‘Over the last several years I have had a number of minor and not-so-minor surgeries. Janie has provided homeopathic remedies to help deal with healing, inflammation and pain. Thanks to the homeopathic remedies, my pains were further eased and I never felt the need to use my entire prescription of post-surgery painkillers’.
