What happens during a Homeopathic consultation?

During the 1st appointment I will try and gain an understanding of your health and the exact symptoms you are experiencing. This appointment lasts for 1 hour. Following the consultation I will find a homeopathic medicine (known as a ‘remedy’) that matches you and your symptoms as closely as possible. To find out more you can read the Patient Information pages at the Society of Homeopaths website.

How will I receive my remedies?

I will order your prescription from either Helios or Ainsworths Homeopathic Pharmacy to post to you, either with an invoice (Ainsworths) or with an email payment link (Helios). You will need to pay the pharmacy directly for your remedies. (The cost is usually between £10 and £20)

Follow Up Appointments

Homeopathic treatment generally involves a gradual process of change towards increased health. The first follow-up appointment takes place between two and four weeks after the first prescription. Follow up appointments are shorter than the first – usually lasting 30 minutes.

How many consultations will I need?

The number of consultations that may be needed is difficult to predict – it depends on a number of factors such as your age, level of health, how long the symptoms have existed, and your response to the homeopathic prescription.

Can I take Homeopathic medicine alongside conventional medicine?

Homeopathic remedies are non-toxic, and will not interfere with the action of conventional drugs. It is important to keep me informed of any changes in prescribed medication from your GP. Some people choose homeopathy because they are unhappy with side effects from their current medication. However, you should not stop taking medication until you have discussed it together with your GP.

Conventional medicine and Homeopathy

I recommended that you maintain your relationship with your GP or specialist. Homeopathic and conventional medical approaches are often successfully used alongside one another in an integrated approach.

Private Health Insurance

You may be able to claim some, or all of the cost of your homeopathic treatment from your private health insurer. I am registered as a practitioner with Simplyhealth and AxaPPP. I recommend that you check your cover with them.
