| I have been practising complementary medicine for a number of years now, and have explored a great deal of practices, in a number of ways. As a Homeopath I work with the prescriptive side of medicine and as a holistic practitioner I provide hands-on therapies. To educate others, I spend part of my working week as a lecturer and also provide training in alternative therapies themselves to enable others to spread the good practice of natural medicine. I believe that Complementary Medicine is a valuable, powerful and effective tool in treating a vast number of conditions without prescription drugs or surgery. However, I also appreciate and have a great respect for the services provided by our National Health Service. I promote the ideal that complementary medicine comes into its own when used to help the healing process. Going forward, as practitioners or as clients, we need to promote the beneficial use of alternative therapies to help overcome pain and discomfort, be it physical, mental or emotional. We also need to drive awareness to help people understand that professionals have extensive training and are not simply “happy- clappy” people wearing caftans, with feathers in our hair. How lucky we are to be in a world that is beginning to realise that there are other forms of healing that have been used since time immemorial. These healing therapies are now being brought back into our understanding and I am honoured to be part of promoting their use. |
