Frequently Asked Questions

  • This really comes down to a number of factors. What type of illness are you suffering? What’s your age and overall health like? Are you hypersensitive? If so, this can slow things down a little. How long has the client had the condition? With chronic conditions, patterns take time to develop and they also take time to unwind. The most sustainable healing usually shows up as steady, gradual improvement from week to week rather than overnight change which is why I highly recommend if you are serious about trying homeopathic treatment for your condition that you book in one of my packages so that you have a minimum of x3 appointments with me to start seeing results. Sometimes we have to detox past medical interventions first before we can really go deeper into treating you.

    Occasionally clients experience an immediate shift in symptoms after only a few weeks. For acute (short-term) ailments, treatment can be very rapid. Long standing complaints however do often take time. Homeopathy resolves issues from the root. Remember, we’re not palliating symptoms we are getting to the cause of why they have manifested in the first place and this often won’t be an overnight resolution. It takes patience.

  • In a consultation we’ll often explore what you’re seeking support for - the main reason you’ve sought homeopathic care. From there we dive deep into your health history looking at what ailments or diseases tend to run in your family, what makes your symptoms better or worse, what was going on in your life at the time of their manifestation etc. From here i’ll go off into some unique aspects that make you - you! What your food preferences are and how you tend to handle stress for example or what your personality is like.

    In short, it can be a little bit like a therapy session. You are free to tell me your life story without interruption, judgement or pressure. Sometimes it can be emotional as for some it's the first time their story has ever been witnessed and shared with another which in itself can be deeply healing. Many times clients have left telling me they felt lighter after our consult.

    Acute consultations are only 20 minutes long and only require us to look more closely at the main symptoms of the case.

  • In short, I have been where you are now and I have lived experience of what it takes to overcome chronic conditions having healed myself of over 30 symptoms and coming off of several different pharmaceuticals. I know exactly how bumpy that ride can be and this gives me tremendous insight into what it takes to overcome it. Because of this understanding I combine all of the knowledge I have gained during my recovery process and have found it to be helpful for many different cases and symptom presentations. Not all practitioners are trained in mind-body medicine and having this kind of support is vital to get well in chronic cases.

  • Absolutely. It’s safe for children, infants, during pregnancy and breastfeeding and even animals to take. Yes, your pet can benefit from your homeopathic first aid kit too!

    Homeopathy is safe in pregnancy and breastfeeding but I always say when pregnant or breastfeeding please consult a professional homeopath or medical doctor first. Some remedies can be better avoided in the first trimester.

  • Yes. Healthcare shouldn’t be inaccessible for some which is why I have purposely tried to make all my fees and packages affordable so homeopathy is accessible to everyone. I offer payment plans for packages and if you’re interested in this please just reach out and we can help you with that

  • You just need to fill out a health questionnaire that will be immediately emailed to you at the time of booking. This intake form will include information about your health condition and how you’ve been managing it so far and ask for some medical history just so I have some back story information on hand before we dive deeper in your consultation. It will also include things around your diet and lifestyle and your current stress levels, moods and emotional state.

  • We understand that sometimes life happens, but appointment times are reserved specifically for you and late changes impact our busy schedule. To ensure fairness and availability, at least 48 hours notice is required for cancellations or changes to appointments.

    Cancellations or reschedules with less than 48 hours notice will incur a 50% fee equal to that of the consultation cost to cover the reserved appointment time. Cancellations with 48 hours or more notice will not incur a fee. Failure to attend your appointment will incur the full cost of the consultation with no refunds offered. In these cases the full consultation fee applies and will be invoiced to you or charged to the card we have on file.

    Late arrivals - If you arrive late to your consultation, the session will still end at the end of the scheduled time to respect other clients. Missed time cannot be extended or refunded.

    Refunds - Consultation fees are non-refundable once the appointment has taken place. Refunds are not provided for change of mind, missed appointments or dissatisfaction with outcomes, as individual responses and outcomes cannot be guaranteed.

    Discretion may be applied in exceptional circumstances.

  • Yes. Homeopathy works well with all kinds of other therapies like acupuncture, massage, chiro, craniosacral therapy, reiki etc. Homeopathy will not interfere with other medication, though some medication can suppress your immune system and prevent you from getting the full benefit of homeopathic remedies. Some medications are lifelong or very much necessary and cannot be stopped, epilepsy for example. Homeopathy can still be of use and stabilise the vital force in situations such as these.

    Very often with homeopathic support you may find you need less medication as your condition improves. You must consult your physician to determine if, how and when to taper off medication gradually.

  • Short answer, no.

    However, there can be what we call a “healing response". This is a temporary worsening of symptoms such as increase in mucous, old symptoms resurfacing, rash breakout, stomach or bowel changes etc. This is usually temporary lasting only a few days as the body detoxes and shifts out old ‘stuff’. The benefits seen after are usually worth any initial aggravations.
