Homoeopathic Pharmacy - What we DoHomoeopathic remedies are subject through a process of potentisation, which enables the remedy to act as a catalyst on subtle energies of the body. Homoeopathy stimulates your natural healing process to health and balance of your vital energies. In 1796 a German Doctor, Samuel Hahnemann, discovered a different approach to the cure of the sick, which he called Homoeopathy. Homoeopathy is a natural and holistic system of medicine that helps the body to heal itself - it stimulates your natural healing processes to health and balance of your vital energies. It is a safe alternative to conventional medicine, which is suitable for all the family - babies, children, pregnant and breastfeeding women (under supervision of a Homoeopath), adults and can also be safely used in animals. The cornerstone of Homoeopathic prescribing is based on the ‘law of similars’ i.e. matching the symptom picture of the patient with that of the remedy. For example, an onion can cause streaming eyes and a runny nose. A Homoeopathic remedy derived from onions, Allium cepa, can be successful in alleviating these symptoms in, say someone suffering from hay fever.
