It is still used as the primary form of medicine by over seventy five per cent of the world’s population. Herbal remedies stimulate the body’s own healing abilities by cleansing and rebalancing it. Herbs can restore the function of “diseased organs” and are important in elimination of toxins which may build up in the body. Homeopathy: Homeopathy is a natural pharmaceutical science that uses extremely small doses of natural substances to stimulate and support the body’s defense system. Homeopathic remedies are individually prescribed according to the unique pattern of symptoms that the practitioner is presented with. These can be prescribed for the treatment of acute conditions or combined with other natural therapies in the management of more chronic health problems. They are also used in higher potencies to restore emotional balance. Osteopathy: Also available is our excellent Osteopath that is highly recommended and very experienced.
