Homeopathy

During your appointment at Westbourne House, our resident Homeopath will ask several questions about your mental, emotional, and physical health. They’ll prescribe the remedy that best matches all your symptoms. Then they’ll tailor the treatment specifically for you.

A central principle of the "treatment" is that "like cures like" – that a substance that causes certain symptoms can also help to remove those symptoms. A second central principle is based around a process of dilution and shaking, called succussion.

Homeopathy is used to "treat" an extremely wide range of conditions, including physical conditions such as asthma and psychological conditions, it has also be regarded as complimentary therapy for people with cancer.

As with most types of complementary therapy, people use it because it may help them feel better or more in control of their situation. Some people choose homeopathy because it is a different type of treatment compared to conventional medicine People use it alongside conventional medicine.
