Homeopathy

                   With   Sue Baker MSc RSHom   

 

  

Professional Profile

Sue studied Psychology at University and then followed this with a Masters degree in Clinical Neuroscience. This formed a foundation for her belief that what goes on in our minds and emotional lives is connected to the illnesses that we develop.  Science recognises this link but it has yet to be incorporated into medicine.  The science of homeopathy looks at the individual and how they experience their illness. It goes behind and beyond the symptoms, whilst keeping them firmly in mind, to find the root cause as it is from here that true healing can begin.  Sue works with all ages and a wide variety of conditions.  She finds working with mothers and children particularly rewarding.

‘ I found Sue to be very thorough, professional and most importantly, extremely empathetic and 'tuned in'. I felt in very good hands from the moment we started. Thank you Sue! TS, Writer and Life Coach.

 

Personal Profile

I discovered homeopathy as a first-time mother of a very colicky baby. Unable to find her any relief I saw a homeopath and was immediately impressed and fascinated  when she asked me not only about the symptoms of the colic, but how my baby responded to the pain, what made it better or worse, what sort of baby she was and also questions about the birth. The consultation went beyond the obvious physical symptoms and looked at the whole. After using homeopathy with very pleasing results with my family and pets for some years I decided to formally train. I continue to be amazed at the scope of this medicine, from the smallest acute to chronic illness.

What to expect

A consultation involves you describing your symptoms in your own way, and answering questions to establish a good picture of you and how you function. Questions may relate to lifestyle, temperament, likes and dislikes, family and personal medical history as well as current symptoms. The homeopath uses all of this information to match the patient to a remedy

Gaining an understanding of you and your condition takes time so the initial consultation lasts for an hour and a half. Subsequent consultations are half an hour to forty five minutes and are about four weeks after the initial treatment. Generally speaking, the initial consultation may be followed by one or two follow-ups and maybe some telephone support in between. After this I should have a good understanding of how you respond to illness which makes visits at a later date more straightforward.

Homeopathy

Homeopathy is a highly individualised form of medicine that addresses the scientifically acknowledged link between our physical and emotional levels. Homeopathy places emphasis on the individuals own unique experience of their symptoms. There is not simply one remedy for a particular illness, but rather one remedy, out of a whole range, which is carefully selected on the basis of each patient’s own variation of that condition. In building up a relationship with a homeopath you have a practitioner who knows you uniquely; how you respond to life’s stresses strains and illnesses, and therefore how best to treat them using non-invasive medicines, free of side effects.
