Frequently Asked Questions
How long does treatment take?
This depends very much on the individual nature of your illness. After the initial consultation it is usual to come for two to three follow ups. This gives us an opportunity to discuss the reaction to treatment and adapt any subsequent prescription to each stage of the recovery process. If you have been ill over the course of many years then the body will need longer to heal than it does in an acute illness where onset is recent.
Should I stop taking my prescribed medication?
No, you should never stop taking any prescribed medications unless so directed by the Doctor who placed you on them. Often people find that after a course of homeopathic treatment they may feel that they do not want to continue certain medications. This is not a judgement that can be taken without consultation with your Doctor so please communicate at all times with any health professionals responsible for your care.
Is Homeopathy recognised by private health insurance companies?
Yes, HSA, now known as Simply Health, Health Shield, Norwich Union & First Assist Group Assurance provide cover and other companies are steadily beginning to recognise the value of Homeopathy to their clients. If you have private health cover it is worth checking if your company is prepared to offer this important support.
