Homeopathy - Information
Homeopathic
remedies are natural, safe, regulated by the FDA and produce no side effects.
Different people use Homeopathic medicines in many ways for a variety of circumstances.
Homeopathy is a natural and safe alternative to conventional medicine and is suitable for all ages throughout every stage of life, for babies, children and adults. It is considered safe to take homeopathic medicines whilst pregnant although we recommend that they are taken under the supervision of a practitioner.
Being a complementary medicine Homeopathy can be taken under supervision alongside conventional treatment. if you are taking conventional medicines please discuss using homeopathic remedies with your General Practitioner. Conventional medicines should not be discontinued without discussion with your GP. (Homeopathy was recognised by an Act of Parliament in 1948, as a safe alternative form of medicinal treatment). Since it's discovery over 250 years ago Homeopathy, a complete system of medicine which improves mental, emotional and physical health has been demonstrated as an effective medicine for people worldwide. Today over thirty million people in Europe benefit from homeopathic treatment.
It is well recognised that people consult a homeopath for help with minor physical ailments and recent emotional experiences. Homeopathy can also help to relieve the effects of long term stress and chronic illness. Whatever the diagnosis, your health circumstances are unique. Homeopathic treatment is based directly on your individual experience of being unwell. A homeopath will select from over 2000 remedies and will prescribe the remedy which is most similar to your experiences and therefore most likely to improve, the state of health you describe.
Accurately prescribed homeopathic remedies boost your whole immune system, and act without side effects. Balance, wellbeing and health are gently, safely and effectively restored. Homeopathy can be used both in health and illness. In health as a preventative and in illness to remedy the imbalance
Belfast homeopathy results
MADELEINE Ennis, a pharmacologist at Queen's University, Belfast, was the scourge of homeopathy. She railed against its claims that a chemical remedy could be diluted to the point where a sample was unlikely to contain a single molecule of anything but water, and yet still have a healing effect. Until, that is, she set out to prove once and for all that homeopathy was bunkum.
In her most recent paper, Ennis describes how her team looked at the effects of ultra-dilute solutions of histamine on human white blood cells involved in inflammation. These "basophils" release histamine when the cells are under attack. Once released, the histamine stops them releasing any more. The study, replicated in four different labs, found that homeopathic solutions - so dilute that they probably didn't contain a single histamine molecule - worked just like histamine. Ennis might not be happy with the homeopaths' claims, but she admits that an effect cannot be ruled out.
So how could it happen? Homeopaths prepare their remedies by dissolving things like charcoal, deadly nightshade or spider venom in ethanol, and then diluting this "mother tincture" in water again and again. No matter what the level of dilution, homeopaths claim, the original remedy leaves some kind of imprint on the water molecules. Thus, however dilute the solution becomes, it is still imbued with the properties of the remedy.
You can understand why Ennis remains sceptical. And it remains true that no homeopathic remedy has ever been shown to work in a large randomised placebo-controlled clinical trial. But the Belfast study ( Inflammation Research , vol 53, p 181) suggests that something is going on. "We are," Ennis says in her paper, "unable to explain our findings and are reporting them to encourage others to investigate this phenomenon." If the results turn out to be real, she says, the implications are profound: we may have to rewrite physics and chemistry
