The Homeopathic Process
Consultation
The initial consultation is about two hours long. During the consultation the homeopath seeks to gather all the symptoms that the patient experiences. All of the symptoms that the body produces is the language that your body uses to tell you something is wrong. No two persons react alike in sickness. Though several people may have the same complaint and the same disease label, the symptoms of one patient differ from the symptoms of all others. This individuality is what the homeopath seeks to discover in a consult. Discussions are mainly led by the patient and can include information on childhood, day-to-day life, mental and emotional symptoms, physical symptoms, food likes and dislikes, dreams and more.
Homeopathic Medicine
After the consultation the homeopath will take some time to select a homeopathic medicine that matches the individual case. There are over 3000 homeopathic remedies which are made up of either plant, mineral or animal substances. When the homeopath selects a medicine it will match the patient’s mental and emotional symptoms as well as the physical symptoms. Typically the medicine comes in the form of pellets that are disolved under the tongue, but can also come in other forms depending on the individual case. Homeopathic medicine is safe for all ages including babies, pregnant mothers and the elderly. It is gentle and non-invasive, produces no toxic side effects, no dependency and no withdrawal.
Follow-Up
A follow-up appointment is typically booked four weeks after starting the homeopathic medicine. After which, they range from every 4 weeks to every 3 or 6 months, depending on the individual case. Follow-ups are important for long term benefit of the patient. Especially in chronic conditions, patients need to return for several follow-ups to see long term benefits. Homeopathic medicine can act quickly but it is important to have the follow-ups so the homeopath can continue to assess and adjust the medicine as needed. Think of homeopathy as a choice of medical treatment that you adopt as a lifestyle. In the long run you will be ill less often and over a period of time will be less prone to stress and feel healthier overall.

Is homeopathy covered under employee benefits?
Homeopathy is covered under employee benefits through a Health Spending Account. More employers are including health spending accounts in their group benefits so that employees can choose their modality or spend more on a certain modality. Some employee benefits do cover Homeopathy as a separate modality. It is a modality that is covered by all major health insurance companies, but not necessarily chosen by your company group plan. You will need to check with your specific group benefits insurance provider. You can also always request that your employer adds homeopathy as a modality to your group benefits. Group benefits typically get reassessed every year and employee benefits are based on what people are requesting to be covered. Thus a quick email to your HR department requesting homeopathy to be added to benefits can make a difference for seeing this on your group benefits.
