A: Typically 2 hours is scheduled for the first appointment. You and your Homeopath will discuss what your symptoms are and why you are seeking Homeopathic treatment. The Homeopath will ask you several questions about what’s going on, how long you’ve been suffering, and about your personal past history. The smallest details are key and highly important to uncovering the right Homeopathic remedy. Questions on how you sleep, what you like to eat, what type of weather you prefer, and what you like to do are all common questions that help the Homeopath. The appointment can be done over the phone, a video meeting online, or in person.

A: A follow-up appointment is always advised. This allows you to address any questions you have after your initial meeting and remedy dose. It also allows the Homeopath to see what progress has been made and if a second dose or different remedy is needed. The duration of appointment is typically 30 minutes and can be done over the phone or in person.

A: The remedy is tasteless. In pellet form, you simply let it dissolve under the tongue to be received into the body sublingually. Your Homeopath will provide detailed instructions on how to take it and when to take it. Remedies can also be given in liquid form. This is where the remedies are dissolved in water. Again, your Homeopath will provide detailed instructions on how to take it so there is no confusion. Because the remedies are tasteless and odorless, children and pets typically have no problem taking it and think it’s a treat or candy.

A: When your symptoms subside or lessen in degree you know it’s working. The time it takes to start working can vary. Remedies can take anywhere from 30 seconds to 30 minutes to days for you to start noticing the change. At times you won’t be aware but family members will say, “Wow that remedy really worked, I notice a change in you already!” If you do not notice any relief or change and you have cause for question, please contact your Homeopath to discuss.  Often times we forget the symptoms we had once they are no longer an issue.  Your Homeopath will go over what symptoms you had and were struggling with one by one at the follow up appointment to see how everything is feeling at that point.

A: Homeopathic remedies can help physical, mental, and emotional symptoms that are acute (just started) or that you have been suffering with for years and years. Talking with your Homeopath is advised and the initial call is free to discuss your symptoms.

A: Of course! Homeopathic remedies are safe for pets of all types and for many conditions. Pets respond just as well to remedies as humans. Giardia is a common sickness in dogs that is a parasite causing diarrhea, vomiting, and weakness in dogs… there is an excellent Homeopathic remedy for that.  That’s only one example!

A: No, Homeopathy can not fix a broken bone. If you break a bone please see a MD and get the bone reset. After you have it fixed by a licensed professional, you can take a homeopathic remedy to speed up the healing process for the bone fusion and also to reduce the pain. Homeopathic remedies can also help the healing and recovery of torn ligaments, cartilage, sprains, and bruising.

A: Yes! Homeopathy is safe and natural. Anyone from infants, elderly individuals, pregnant woman, and individuals taking prescription medication can safely take these remedies. There are no counter indications or side effects. It is recommended that you advise your doctor if you are taking prescription medications that you are seeing a Homeopath and taking Homeopathic remedies to be upfront with them and their treatments for you.
