About Treatment Homeopathic medicines are derived from animals, plants and minerals and number over 3,000. They are diluted to a great degree and can be safely used by everyone, including pregnant women and babies. I conduct a thorough history that usually lasts 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 hours. After the interview, I research the case and prescribe a single homeopathic medicine that is precisely individualized to the patient. In some cases, it takes several visits to find the correct medicine. Often, once the correct medicine is found, a dose or two will work for six months or more. A word about fees: Each case requires hours of research in order to find an appropriate medicine. To get a deep-acting prescription, it is necessary to precisely individualize each prescription. Additionally, the elegance of homeopathy is that once a curative medicine is found, visits become further and further apart. Therefore, as we succeed, the cost of treatment becomes less and less. Ultimate success is for the patient's new- found health to be self-sustaining, so that future visits become unnecessary. Please contact the office for information regarding my fees.
