We will discuss taking other remedies during your treatment. First aid consultations can also be booked in between consultations if you have an acute symptom you need help with. For minor acutes that come up between appointments please do contact me by email for free advice if this is straightforward to remedy, or if your most recent appointment was within 3 weeks I may suggest a 10min call to clarify details but if more time is required an acute consultation may be necessary.

Taking Homeopathic Remedies 

Homeopathic remedies are high dilutions of natural substances & are assimilated through the saliva NOT through the digestion, therefore please take your remedies away from food (ideally at least 20mins before or after eating, longer if eating anything strong tasting ie mint, coffee etc - then wait 30-40mins) Note - this does not mean you need to eat before or after only that if you have eaten you wait at least 20mins before taking a remedy and ensure you wait at least 20mins afterwards before eating.  Please leave the remedy in your mouth or under the tongue to dissolve.  (This is very important if your remedy is a once a day/week/month dose rather than a remedy taken 2-3 times a day). 

Note - If you have any symptoms after taking a remedy please get in touch, these may be a clearing of sorts in the form of a discharge or cold, very occasionally symptoms can intensify then improve.  If this is uncomfortable or you are concerned please get in touch by email.

If you have any further questions please let me know.
