Homeopathy is an alternative medicine based on the idea of “like cures like.” For example, the sleeplessness someone experiences from insomnia is similar to the effects that coffee produces, so a homeopath may recommend a coffee-based remedy to help with the insomnia. The amount of substances used in homeopathic remedies is tiny, so will not be enough to produce the same effect. By mixing these substances in an alcohol or water-based solution, its healing essence is transferred, which provides relief for the person taking it.
Naturopathy and homeopathy are entirely different practices that differ in scope. Homeopathy deals exclusively with homeopathic remedies, which are administered to treat particular issues like acid reflux, hay fever, coughing, as well as a general well being. Naturopathy is a much broader practice that includes treatments like supplements, herbs, dietary advice, hydrotherapy, and physical therapy. Homeopathy and naturopathy are both holistic medicines that aim to treat people’s entire health.
Homeopaths can treat a variety of conditions and issues, but the most common include:
A practitioner of homeopathy has access to a huge number of substances from the plant and animal kingdoms, in addition to minerals found within the earth. These are some of the more common substances they use in their remedies:
To find a good quality homeopath, they will need to be accredited through a course that is recognised by the Australian Government. They must also be up to speed on the latest developments in their field. At ANTA, these two things are embedded into our membership criteria, so the quickest way for you to find a skilled homeopath is using our practitioner directory at the top of this page.
Homeopathic treatment usually starts to work from three days to a week. But this varies depending on the issue that is being treated, and how severe it is. For example, chronic conditions can take much longer to produce effects, whereas smaller issues may be resolved faster.
As a complementary therapy, homeopathy is meant to complement conventional medicine, rather than be a standalone treatment. So it’s fine for you to take homeopathic remedies with your existing medication, but be sure to tell your homeopath what you’re taking before doing so, as some strong medications may cancel out the effects of homeopathic remedies.
