What is homoeopathic medicine?

The word homoeopathy comes from the Greek words homos (similar) and pathos (suffering). Homeopathic remedies are prepared from minute amounts of an active ingredient, that when given in large doses can create an illness. The minute homeopathic doses have been so diluted that there is no danger in giving the remedy, however the bodies own natural healing response is stimulated to create a cure.

Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician, (1755-1843), first discovered this healing modality. James Tyler Kent an American physician, refined and popularized homeopathy.

Over the last 200 hundred years homeopathy has been used in many countries as a safe effective complementary medicine.
The whole person is treated in homeopathy. The spirit, mind emotions and physical body are all taken into account when choosing a remedy. It is best to see a qualified practitioner, for a constitutional remedy (a remedy that is suited to specifically you.)

Homeopathy may be used very effectively in an acute situation. For example in a fall, where a person has; shock and bruising, Arnica, in a diluted homeopathic form can be given to speed the healing and reduce the shock.

Mullumbimby Herbals stocks these acute remedies and a full range of more obscure remedies. We alos offer a variety of first aid kits.
