  • What is homeopathy?

    Over 200 years old, homeopathy is widely used around the world and is one of the fastest growing medical systems in the world. 


    In a world where we are constantly inundated with pressures from family, jobs, personal relationships and more, we can easily become out of tune or out of sync with ourselves which can show up in the form of digestive issues, insomnia, chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression, high blood pressure and other symptoms. Conventional medications treat or suppress these symptoms but don't treat the underlying causes.


    Homeopathic medicine seeks to bring balance and restore a sense of self which has a huge impact on your physical health. You will see your sleep improve, energy increase, pain decrease & your symptoms disappear. 

     

    This incredibly powerful and unique medicine has solutions that you never thought existed or were told were impossible.





  • What exactly does homeopathy treat?

    Homeopathy can be used to treat almost anything, from chronic health conditions, like infertility, PCOS, autoimmune diseases, cancer, digestive health issues, anxiety, depression and acne to acute health issues like colds, flus and broken bones. 

    It can be used to speed healing after surgery, childbirth or other injuries. It can also be used to manage side effects from drugs during treatments such as chemo or radiation. 


  • Who can use homeopathy?

    Homeopathy can be used by anyone and is safe for all ages. It can be used without risk in infancy, old age, and pregnancy. 


    Homeopathic medicine is an effective, safe, and completely natural system of medicine that treats your health issues individually. No two people have the exact same symptoms and so you deserve to be treated with a personalized medicine. Whether your health issues are physical, mental, emotional or a combination of some of them homeopathy can help restore health. 


    HOW? Because they stimulate the natural healing ability of your own body! Your symptoms are an expression of your body’s imbalances and its attempt to restore health. Homeopathic medicines help restore balance and as a result restore your health.


  • What’s the difference between homeopathy and naturopathy?

    Homeopaths solely study homeopathic medicine. Homeopaths view symptoms as an expression of imbalance in the body. Through the use of homeopathic medicines they root out the cause of the imbalance bringing resolution of symptoms and an overall improvement in energy, mental focus, sleep, immune system health and general health. Since no single person with the same disease or illness has exactly the same symptoms treatment must be tailored to each person’s individual symptoms. Homeopaths view every person as unique, requiring individualized medicines rather than a ‘one size fits all’ approach. This individualized treatment approach supports healing in a way that no other medicine does.


    Naturopaths are the general practitioners of natural medicine. This means that they are trained in a variety of natural medicines including nutrition, acupuncture, Chinese medicine, botanical medicine and homeopathy. 




  • Can I continue to take my medication when I’m using homeopathy?

    Yes. Homeopathic medicine can be used safely alongside pharmaceutical medications. It is not recommended to stop taking any drugs without consultation from your medical doctor.


  • What can I expect on my my first visit?

    A first visit (for an adult) with a homeopath is usually between 1.5-2 hours long. This time is needed to get a full health history as well as explore all the things that make you unique. This may include things like your mental, emotional and physical complaints, what makes your symptoms better or worse, what kinds of foods/drinks you crave, the content of your dreams, your childhood experiences and more. Normally you will receive your homeopathic medicine within 1 week after your appointment (as a couple of hours of research may be required to select the best remedy). 

    Follow-up appointments are usually scheduled every 3-6 weeks after as required by your current health concerns. 

  • Are homeopathic or nutrition services covered by OHIP?

    OHIP does not cover homeopathic or nutritional services but you may be eligible for reimbursement of your expenses by your personal health insurance. Several insurance companies in Ontario have included homeopathy in their list of therapies or you may be able to use your health savings account (HSA). You also have the option of claiming your payments for income tax reduction.
