"The homeopathic physician must approach the patient as a whole, not as a mere collection of symptoms. The true art of prescribing lies in understanding the totality of the individual's condition - physical, mental, and emotional - and selecting a remedy that matches the whole person, not just isolated symptoms." – James Tyler Kent
Frequently Asked Questions
Consistency in homeopathic treatment is essential, as chronic diseases take time to heal and often require multiple remedies. Patients should not be discouraged if they do not see immediate results, as symptoms typically disappear in reverse order—meaning the most recent symptoms resolve first, while older, deeper ones take longer. In some cases, the most bothersome symptom may be the last to go. Trusting the process and staying committed to treatment allows for a gradual and lasting cure.

The initial consultation will last 1.5 to 2 hours and can be conducted either in person or virtually.
To make the most of our time together, please complete the questionnaire before the consultation.
During the session, I will ask detailed questions about your physical, mental, and emotional health, as well as your and your family’s medical history.
This consultation may be different from what you experience at an allopathic doctor’s visit. Your cravings, habits, and mood play a crucial role in determining the correct prescription.
After the homeopathic interview, I may need up to 24 hours to analyze your case. I will then contact you with a prescription and further instructions.
I will follow up with a 15-minute phone check-in one week later.

Homeopathy can be highly effective for a wide range of conditions, but there are limitations. It is not suited for treating diseases that require surgical interventions, such as fractures, torn ligaments, or conditions like herniated discs ,ovarian/testicular torsion, etc. Acute emergencies, such as heart attacks or strokes, also fall outside its scope. Additionally, homeopathy may not be curative in advanced-stage cancer or autoimmune conditions.
However, the success of homeopathy depends greatly on the patient's overall health, we call it Level of health, and the stage of the disease. In patients with a stronger constitution or in earlier stages of illness, many conditions—sometimes even cancer—can be cured. In advanced stages or end-of-life situations, homeopathy can still provide valuable palliative care, easing discomfort and improving the quality of life
-
Yes, you can continue to use your prescription medications and typical treatments. However there is one exception. Homeopathy should not be used in combination with other energetic healing practices. For example, acupuncture also influences the body on an energetic level and might influence the picture of the remedy and evaluation of the case.
-
In classical homeopathy, we use one remedy at a time and monitor its effects through follow-up consultations. The remedy may be given as a single dose in a sugar pill during the office visit, or you may be instructed to purchase a liquid dilution or sugar pills for use at home.
Combination remedies, often used in non-classical homeopathy, can interfere with proper feedback and may create confusion within the body.
Homeopathic remedies are safe, effective, and relatively affordable.

The initial consultation is $160, and follow-up consultations are $70. During the early stages of treatment, follow-ups are typically recommended every 6 weeks. As treatment progresses, follow-ups will be scheduled as needed.
In between consultations, you are welcome to contact me at no additional cost if an acute condition arises (such as a cold, flu, injuries, food poisoning, urinary tract infection, etc.) or if you plan to start a new allopathic medication.
What You Should Know
-
1. Homeopathy is Just a Placebo
Homeopathic remedies are not merely placebos; they are based on the principle that highly diluted substances can stimulate the body’s healing response.
2. Homeopathy is Pseudoscience
Although debated, homeopathy is not inherently pseudoscience; it’s an evolving field with ongoing research and differing views on its effectiveness.
3. Homeopathy and Herbology are the Same
Homeopathy differs from herbology—herbal medicine uses natural plant substances, while homeopathy relies on highly diluted remedies.
5. Extreme Dilutions Make Homeopathy Ineffective
Homeopathy’s dilutions don’t aim to leave chemical traces but to work through energetic or vibrational effects, which is a key distinction.
6. Homeopathy is Only for Minor Ailments
Homeopathy can be used for a wide range of conditions, including chronic and acute health issues, not just minor ailments.
7. Homeopathy Conflicts with Conventional Medicine
Homeopathy can complement conventional medicine when used alongside other treatments, offering a holistic approach to health.

In some cases, brief aggravation of existing symptoms may occur within a few days after taking a remedy. This is a healing reaction, typically followed by gradual improvement.
If this happens, do not take any more of the remedy and wait for the symptoms to pass. After six weeks, we’ll have your first follow-up session to assess the effects of the remedy. If the chosen remedy is not correct, there will be no change, and we will select a new remedy. Depending on the severity of the case, it may take anywhere from six months to two years (or more) to cure or palliate the condition. For acute conditions relief can be seen fairly quickly.
Healing Takes Time: It's important to be patient and observe gradual improvements in various areas of your life. Many factors can influence the healing process, such as lifestyle, constant stress, and poor habits. It’s important to be mindful of these and avoid them whenever possible.
Consistency is key to success.

To support the healing process, it's recommended to avoid caffeinated coffee.
Tea and decaffeinated coffee are fine in moderation.
Additionally, it's important to completely avoid camphor oil and limit the use of essential oils.
Vaccinations, antibiotics, or hormonal treatments may also neutralize or interfere with homeopathic remedies.
Please consult with me before taking any new allopathic or other medications.
