Homeopathy
Homeopathy is a natural form of complementary medicine that works on the principle of encouraging the body’s own ability to heal itself. It has been practised worldwide for over 200 years and is recognised as the second largest system of medicine globally by the World Health Organization.
At The Northgate Clinic, homeopathy is used to support a wide range of acute and long-term health concerns. It is commonly sought for minor ailments such as cuts, bruises, coughs, and colds, as well as for ongoing conditions including arthritis, asthma, migraine, chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, eczema, and irritable bowel syndrome. Many people turn to homeopathy when symptoms have not responded fully to conventional treatment, or when they are seeking a more individualised and holistic approach to care.
Homeopathy treats each person as a unique individual rather than focusing solely on a diagnosis. By considering physical symptoms alongside emotional wellbeing, lifestyle, and medical history, treatment aims to stimulate the body’s natural healing response and support long-term balance and resilience.
