Safe, natural and effective treatment for everyone

Homeopathy and N.A.E.T. are both safe, non invasive forms of treatment suitable for babies, children, pregnant and breast-feeding women, the elderly and even those with terminal illness. 

Many people initially consult me for help with a particular condition but then continue treatment in order to maintain a strong level of immunity and good, overall health.

Here you find details of some of the conditions that I treat but if you would like to find out whether homeopathy or N.A.E.T. can benefit you, please contact me.

 

Homeopathy 

Homeopathy has a 200 year history, having been established in Germany by a physician, Samuel Hahnemann, who had become disillusioned with the medical practices of the day. He experimented with quinine, which was widely used to treat the symptoms of malaria, and realised that as a healthy individual when he took quinine, he developed the symptoms of malaria.  When he stopped taking it, the symptoms abated.  From this point he began to develop the theory of the Law of Similiars, which underpines homeopathic treatment. This states that a substance which causes symptoms in a healthy person will cure those symptoms in someone who is sick.

As an example, imagine what happens if you drink too much coffee.  Many people will develop palpitations and perhaps a feeling of agitation and anxiety.  It is common to be unable to sleep after an excess of coffee.  Homeopathically, coffee is used to treat insomnia, where the sufferer feels agitated and ill at ease.  Similar symptoms, in fact, that they may experience if they consume too much coffee.

During his experimentation Hahnemann used a number of poisonous substances which were in common usage by the medics of his day, including mercury and arsenic. He developed a method of dilution to ensure these substances could not be harmful. The dilution method is known as succussion and involves dilution, then shaking and banging before further diluting the substance.  It is the dilution of homeopathic remedies that has proved to be controversial over the past two centuries.

An important element of homeopathic treatment is that it treats the whole person, not just the disease. Imagine a roomful of people with headaches ... the likelihood is that each of them will have different headache symptoms and there will be different things that make them feel better and worse. The chances are that each of them will receive a different homeopathic remedy, depending on their individual headache symptoms. This is the reason that a homeopathic consultation takes some time, but is also why the correct homeopathic remedy can be so effective - the whole person is treated, not just their headache.

N.A.E.T.

N.A.E.T. (Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Treatment) was established 25 years ago by Dr Devi Nambudripad, an American-based chiropractor and acupuncturist. Dr Devi had suffered from extreme allergies for much of her life, and at one point was only able to eat white rice and broccoli. She treated her allergies and become tolerant to a wider range of foods, however one day she experienced an allergic reaction whilst peeling a carrot. She asked her husband (also an acupuncturist) to perform acupressure on certain points of her back and realised after a couple of minutes that the symptoms had abated, and all the time she was holding the carrot.

Dr Devi developed a system of using kinesiology (muscle testing) to test for the presence of allergies, and then acupressure to eliminate the allergy whilst the allergen is being held. An enormous number of ailments are underpined by allergies, although we may be unaware of them, and eliminating them can have a dramatic impact on the health of the body.

N.A.E.T. is safe for anyone and is even suitable for babies, children and animals.  You can download a treatment information sheet as a pdf:

Which therapy?

You may be uncertain whether homeopathy or N.A.E.T. is best for you and your condition. At the first appointment I will take a full case history and then discuss the options with you.  Often I combine the treatments  - if someone is coming for weekly N.A.E.T.  sessions but it is apparent that they would benefit from a particular homeopathic remedy, then I will prescribe the remedy.  Conversely, you may just wish to receive homeopathic treatment but it may be appropriate to use kinesiology to test for food or other allergies too.

The cost is the same regardless of the treatment.
