About me
In practice for over 25 years, I am a member of the Society of Homeopaths (SoH). After an impressive personal experience with homeopathic treatment, I initially studied at Purton House School and later completed a University of Westminster honours degree in homeopathy. I have an active interest in research into homeopathy, and I actively support the Homeopathy Research Institute.
Supporting patients in gaining best possible health outcomes and helping them make choices that are right for them is central to my work. You, the patient, are an active participant in your care.
Homeopathic treatment is universal:
- suitable for most health issues
- safe
- complementary to mainstream medical treatment
- holistic
Homeopathic treatment and homeopathic medicines are safe to use:
- for babies and children
- in pregnancy and birth
- for the elderly, including end-of-life care
- to accompany hormonal change-of-life phases
- supporting sports people at all levels
- to support the busy, high-stress daily life many of us have to manage
It is also amazingly effective for your pets (and other animals), though such treatment is the preserve of veterinary homeopaths: ask me if you need a recommendation.
In the UK, homeopathy is commonly used:
- to support difficult-to-treat medical conditions alongside standard medical care
- for emotional support - e.g. where anxiety or depression medications are not indicated or not wanted
- to help limit side effects of medications
- to help reduce medication intake: typically in minor health conditions
- as a lifestyle decision: complementing other healthy life choices
Information on patient satisfaction and benefits of homeopathic treatment can be found e.g. here and here.
Homeopaths can and do treat serious and severe illness, not always just as a 'complementary' function of medical care. In the UK this is not so well-known, but worldwide homeopathy is widely seen as one discipline within normal medical provision. In Germany and France, Brazil and India, and many other countries, homeopathy is part of everyday care in many GP practices and hospitals.
If you have questions about a specific health condition, or are unsure whether homeopathy is for you, please call me for an informal chat. Treatment focus in homeopathy is always on you, not just your symptoms - that is what holistic treatment is all about.
As a past director of the Society of Homeopaths (2018-2024), I support registration of practitioners: choosing a registered homeopath provides peace of mind.
Disclaimer: Like most UK homeopaths I am not an MD. I do not provide medical diagnosis or tests: when medical input is indicated, I refer you back to your GP.
