About Homeopathy: Homeopathy is a safe and gentle system of medicine that uses naturally occurring substances in the form of remedies to stimulate the body's natural ability to heal. All kinds of complaints are treated by Homeopathy and each case presents a unique set of circumstances. It is suited to all ages and safe even for children, pregnant and sensitive patients and Sheelagh often treats whole families. Recommended reading: ‘The Complete Homeopathy Handbook’ or ‘Homeopathy for Mother and Baby’ for pregnancy and childbirth, both available in Nelson’s Homeopathic Dispensary, Duke St, Dublin or on the internet. You should always use these in conjunction with professional advice. It is also advisable to do a short course on using homeopathic remedies at home.
