As a homeopath Melisa provides a practical and common sense approach to your health. Homeopathy is free from toxins and chemicals and is a safe for all ages.  It can be used either exclusively or in conjunction with other forms of medicine. Homeopaths do not diagnose conditions (unless trained to do so), and Melisa will always encourage the patient to have a good relationship with their physician. 

How long is the consultation? First consultations are always 1 hour 30 min, Follow ups usually are 45-60 minutes depending on your needs.

When will I get the remedy? Occasionally I may give you the remedy to take during the consultation or as you leave. Other times I may feel I need more time to look over your case. If this happens your remedy will be mailed out the following day. I will always post your remedies within 48 hours of our appointment.

What to expect after you take your remedy?

Many patients notice changes after taking their remedy.  Some patients experience a period of exceptional well-being and optimism.  Sometimes your symptoms can appear to get worse for a short time.  This is often a good sign that the remedy is taking effect.  Sometimes a cold, rash or some form of discharge may appear as a ‘spring cleaning’ effect which means your system is going through a clearing out stage.  Similarly, old symptoms can reappear, usually for a short period of time.

 These symptoms are an important part of the healing process but, if any response to your treatment concerns you, do contact me as soon as you can.  You might also want to make notes of any changes and take them with you to discuss at your next appointment.

After your appointment

I offer continuous treatment, which means that as part of the fee, you may receive a reasonable amount of brief telephone support between regular appointments, providing you telephone at the allocated times. Help is therefore available for acute ailments that arise in between appointments (nb: a charge is made for remedies sent out).
