Remedies

Homeopathic remedies are made from minerals, metals, plants and animal products.

These substances if used in their natural state might be harmful to us, but they are used in tiny quantities and scientifically prepared. The remedies are gentle and strong and work with the body to promote healing naturally.

An example of a homeopathic remedy is Apis, which is made from the bee sting. When you are stung by a bee, the surrounding area becomes red, swollen, painful and often itchy as well. This remedy is used for any situation when the skin has the same reaction.

Recently, I prescribed this remedy for a friend’s son who was extremely susceptible to stings of all sorts. He had a bad wasp sting which was red, swollen and hurting. I gave him a couple of tablets of Apis. Next morning he telephoned me and said “your remedy worked a treat – what a pity more people do not know about homeopathy”.
