Homeopathy is a non-invasive therapy and is based on verbal communication.  During the initial consultation we will discuss a range of topics including any current complaints, your medical history, lifestyle, diet, sleep, personality etc.  After each consultation, I carry out thorough case work analysis, and will take into account a range of physical, emotional and lifestyle factors in order to prescribe the best remedy for you.

It is important for me to learn as much as possible about you in order to match the appropriate remedy to you.  I need to know when and where symptoms occur, what brings them on, what aggravates them, your state of mind and any other symptoms you experience.  It is important that you tell me about any medicine, supplements, or therapies you are receiving, and especially of any recent or impending dental treatment.   

How many appointments will I need?

At the initial consultation, a follow up appointment will be made as it is necessary for me to assess how your first treatment has progressed.  I will always discuss with you the need for any further follow up appointments.  Symptoms and remedies will continue to be reviewed throughout any follow up consultations.  Depending on what illness you have, it is generally recommended you have an initial consultation with at least 2 follow up appointments; this is so we can monitor your progress regularly.  Each treatment is tailored to the individual person, and a remedy may not always be prescribed after each session.  If you have any questions then please contact me and we can discuss this further.

If you want to contact me about making an appointment or to ask me any questions, then please give me a call on 07896 250 089 if you are unable to reach me then please leave me a message on my answer phone and I will get back to you as quickly as I can. Alternatively you can email me at maryhomeopath@blueyonder.co.uk 

Please note I can only accept payment by cash or cheque at the time of consultation (any prescribed remedy is included in the fee).  I respectfully remind patients that a minimum of 24 hours notice is required for cancellations, so the appointment can be filled.   Failed appointments or those cancelled with less than 24 hours notice may incur a fee.
