Homeopathy is a healing modality that works by using a small dose of a substance to help stimulate the body's healing forces.
Homeopathy recognizes the intimate connection between the mind and body. A homeopathic consultation includes gathering information of the person's unique hereditary background, physical, and emotional aspects instead of isolated symptoms of the body. The goal of working with a homeopath is to strengthen the individual so that their own vital force, the body's innate intelligence, is stimulated by individualized homeopathic remedies to help bring about balance.
The principle of "the Law of Similars" or "like cures like" that was mentioned by Hippocrates two thousand years ago describes the core of homeopathy. Samuel Hahnemann, M.D. (1755-1843) of Germany founded this therapeutic method based on this law. Dr. Hahnemann proved that a substance that could cause a disturbance in a healthy person can heal anyone experiencing the same disturbance with the same substance in micro doses prepared through a scientific process that dilutes the substance. Dr. Luc Montagnier, the French virologist who won the Nobel Prize in 2008 for discovering the AIDS virus, has performed experimental research that confirms that the way that homeopathic remedies are prepared, where substances undergo sequential dilution with vigorous shaking in-between each dilution, the electromagnetic signals of the original medicine remains in the water and has dramatic biological effects.

Homeopathy is safe and effective and is used by an estimated 500 million people worldwide. The World Health Organization cites homeopathy as the second most widely used form of healing in the world and as one of the systems of healthcare that should be integrated worldwide with conventional medicine in order to provide adequate care. A breakthrough report by the Swiss government in 2012 validated that homeopathy is effective and that homeopathy consultations should be reimbursed by Switzerland's national health insurance program. .
Because of the highly individualized approach to each person and his/her
condition, a partnership between the homeopathic consultant and the client is
essential. I am committed to creating this partnership with every client I work with.
