But Who am I?
I'm originally from New Zealand, where I trained as a registered nurse. Since then I have lived in both the UK and Europe, where my interest in alternative therapies was awakened.
Since returning to the UK in the late 90s I have taken up the study of homeopathy firstly at Purton House School of Homeopathy, followed on by a postgraduate diploma in Advanced Homeopathy. I've just completed a year of Post Graduate Study in Homeopathy at TVU and now have a BSc (Hons) in Homeopathy. I am qualified, insured and Registered with the
Society of Homeopaths.
Do I just use homeopathy?
No one would ask their car to run on incorrect fuel, therefore what we eat is a large factor in who we are and possibly for some might affect how we feel. With this in mind, I have an interest Nutrition to help identify areas of imbalance and to make suggestions as to how subtle changes may improve your health.
Alongside of homeopathy and homeopathic remedies, I have studied both the Australian Bush Flower Essences and Bach Flower Essences, I am now an Australian Bush Flower Essence Practitioner and use them when I feel that these may be most appropriate.
So why use/choose homeopathy?
Homeopathy works on treating the whole person rather than the
"illness" or
"annoying symptom". We do not know how homeopathay works but observations of clients appear to indicate that it stimulates the body's natural healing reactions and the correct homeopathic remedy helps. Treatment in no way promises, or implies cure, but an analysis of your case and suggestions for indicated homeopathic remedy, or essence.
The symptoms that you suffer from are the body's way of making us aware of an underlying imbalance or problem. To identify just what needs correcting requires a case history, which includes physical symptoms and individual characteristics.
Yes but what if I have....?
An audit of my practice shows that people with a diagnosis of the following conditions sought a consultation with me, although I do advise my clients to maintain contact with their primary health care provider.:
- Stress
- Grief
- Depression
- Behavioural difficulties in children
- Skin conditions
- Menstrual problems
- Gastro Instestinal difficulties
- Bladder problems
- Ear infections
- Throat infections
- Sleep problems
- Hayfever and allergies
- Panic Attacks
- Anxiety
- Migraines/Headaches
- Pregnancy and Childbirth
- And beyond......
And some people come because they say that they just don't feel right!Many people say that they feel better in themselves after taking the remedy, that they have more energy and things don't seem quite so bad anymore.
