Home visiting homoeopathy brings the consulting room to you.

The home visit service was borne from children disrupting clients in the next room trying to have a relaxing massage where the walls are separated by partition board. I have no problem with noisy children, but obviously it's not appropriate if you're trying to have a massage in the next room; clients being unable to manage a flight of stairs to the consultation room, clients wanting to see me outside of clinic opening times and just for the sheer convenience of clients not having to worry about parking, childcare and having to take time out from their busy schedule.

I really enjoy home visits and so do my clients. Sometimes my clients even offer me a cup of tea, great! Where will I visit? Essentially, up to an hour's drive away.

If you'd prefer to see me in a clinic, my practices operate from multi-discipline, environments in Wallington, Guildford, Dorking and Bromley.

• Homoeopathy is geared towards promoting health rather than reducing illness.

• It is neither appropriate, ethical or legal to claim that I can cure any illness.

• The homoeopathic philosophy is that your body has produced symptoms as a reaction.

• So, I'll give you a medicine that works with your body to strengthen it so that you no longer have to produce symptoms anymore, thereby getting well again.

• It's important that your health is promoted by the homoeopathic medicines to the extent that you are less likely to get ill again.

• Every homoeopathic medicine I prescribe has been done so with this intent.

• I've helped people of all ages both in my clinics and in their own homes with all manner of illnesses.

• Examples of some of the illnesses and problems they came to me with are listed further down the page.

Boots hit by mass homeopathy 'overdose' - The Telegraph

10:23 Publicity Stunt, What a brilliant idea!

If you’ve not heard, a group of sceptics, more aptly termed ‘denialists’ have planned to take a whole bottle of Arnica 30c in one go whilst standing outside Boots since Boots is the largest retailer of homoeopathic medicines in UK. This is a far easier target than the NHS or the MHRA who both at least indirectly endorse homoeopathy.

The ‘stunt’ has been dubbed ‘ill-advised’ and thus poorly thought out.

… but here’s the thing, when you what to carry out a scientific experiment you need to have an aim, objective or hypothesis – The 10:23 bunch has the hypothesis – Homoeopathy doesn’t work. They then have to set out to prove or disprove this hypothesis. What do you think they would like the result to be? – Yep, that’s science for you.

If the 10:23 crew have any understanding of homoeopathy (and science), they will acknowledge that in order to test the efficacy of a substance it will need to be tested in a double-blind, placebo manner, just as in the homoeopathic equivalent of a clinical trial called a ‘proving’ from the German verb ‘prefung’ – to test.

If you were one of the volunteers, you would take a substance, in homoeopathic potency, usually 30c, frequently, rather than all the tablets at once, to evoke a reaction, mental, emotional or physical in you over the space of few days. Some would take placebo and only the homoeopathic pharmacy would know who had taken substance or placebo. A case history would be taken by a homoeopath before and after the tablets had been taken and the results noted and eventually documented in homoeopathic literature before it could be classed as a homoeopathic medicine or remedy, and subsequently prescribed to a client.

If the ‘stunt’ was carried out in this manner, it may work, which is why it won’t be orchestrated in a manner in any way similar to this.

Therefore, it’s a brilliant idea… if you want to demonstrate that homoeopathy doesn’t work using bias, un-scientific experimental protocol and spin.

Denialists would prefer homoeopathy to not be available to you. They want to deny you that choice. The thing is, when it works it costs the pharmaceutical industry in lost revenue, but saves the NHS money.

Homoeopathy is the last resort for many people, it’s not regarded as conventional. They choose it last since they believe in it least. Why then, does the placebo response work so well in these people when the first resort, in which they so strongly believed, failed them?

If you take away homoeopathy, what then will be the last resort to people for whom the conventional route has failed?

PS I may gatecrash the stunt :o)
