<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nHomeopathy is a 200 year old therapy which involves the individualised prescription of homeopathic medicines for each patient. Homeopathy is effective in treating patients of all ages suffering from a wide range of acute and chronic complaints. Homeopathic medicines are safe to use and free from the risk of the side-effects associated with conventional pharmaceuticals.<\/p>\n
Due to the individualised treatment method homeopaths and patients need access to a wide range of medicines. Otherwise treatment will not be optimally effective.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nHomeopathic medicines are produced through a process of serial dilution and succussion (referred to as potentisation) of source substances that may be of mineral, vegetable, animal or human origin.<\/p>\n
Homeopaths use a range of low to high potencies (succussed serial dilutions), the mechanism of action of which has still not been fully explained using present scientific methods. However, despite the lack of explanation so far, clinical experience and a large number of clinical trials have clearly shown the effectiveness of homeopathic treatment.<\/p>\n

In some countries badly revised regulations have led manufacturers to reduce the range of available homeopathic medicines by up to 90 percent.<\/p>\n

They are safe to use due to strict production procedures that include sterilisation of the original substance. Also, such medicines are usually used in potencies diluted beyond Avogadro\u2019s number and are thereby safe by dilution alone.
