A homeopathic consultation is a little different from the kind of appointments you might be used to. Instead of jumping straight to a diagnosis or treatment, the focus is on you — your story, your symptoms, and how you experience them.
Prior to your first consultation
At this point, I will send you a form to fill in, to gather some important information, which is confidential and protected, eg.. nature of the complaint to be treated, current prescribed medication if applicable, background to the complaint, and family medical history etc. This allows us more time during the actual consultation, where I will be able to focus on finding the best tailor made medicine that is most suited to you at the time.
The Consultation
During your first consultation, which may last up to one hour, 30 mins, you’ll have the space to talk about what’s going on for you — whether it’s a physical issue, an emotional challenge, or both. We’ll explore how your symptoms started, what makes them better or worse, and how they affect your daily life.
We’ll also chat about things like your sleep, energy levels, food preferences, general and health history . All of this helps build a fuller picture of who you are, so that I can find a remedy that matches you as a whole person — not just your symptoms.
Once I’ve gathered enough information, I’ll carefully select a homeopathic remedy that fits you best. While many people might have similar conditions, like headaches for example, everyone experiences them differently. Homeopathy takes those differences into account.
After taking the remedy — whether it’s a one-off dose or taken over several days — many people notice subtle shifts at first. You might feel more rested, sleep more deeply, or have more energy, or feel more motivation to tackle the obligations of life. Sometimes, your body may respond with a temporary return or intensification of symptoms, before things start to improve. This is often a sign that the healing process is starting to take effect.
As time goes on, you may notice your symptoms becoming less intense, less frequent, or not lasting as long. These changes are signs that your body is finding its way back to balance and health. Occasionally improvement is rapid or sudden.
After the initial consultation, we’ll of course be checking in to see if any questions arise in relation to the remedy or how to take it, and to see if any other feedback is needed, either way.
Follow Up Appointment
We’ll then have a follow-up appointment to check in on how things are going, usually after 4 to 6 weeks or sooner, If needed. I’ll be evaluating the results of the remedy given, to see if I need to enhance its action, and/or to see if anything needs to be changed or adjusted at that point, in order to support your ongoing healing.
I will occasionally provide a remedy from my own dispensary, if I happen to have it in supply. Otherwise I will refer you to a homeopathic pharmacy close to your location, with a prescription and clear instructions re potency, dosage and method of dilution.
