Take the Homeopath To Health

What I love about homeopathy and why I am so passionate about it is how it treats every person as an individual. We all experiences illnesses in an individual way, for example I might have 5 patients with headaches and they might each get a completely different remedy as they experience their headaches very differently.

Homeopathy can be used on its own, but as it is so flexible it can be used alongside conventional medicine or alongside other forms of complimentary medicine. You can pretty much use homeopathy to treat anything.

Who can benefit from homeopathy?
Some common conditions that can be successfully treated are:
    Addictions
    ADHD/behavioural problems
    Allergies, hay fever
    Anxiety, mood swings, depression
    arthritis
    Asthma
    Childhood illnesses
    Colds, coughs, flu etc.
    colic
    cystitis
    Digestive complaints, IBS
    Endometriosis
    Fevers
    grief
    Headaches and migraine
    Headlice
    Hormonal disorders Infertility
    Injuries ? recent or long standing
    insomnia
    ME and chronic fatigue
    Panic attacks
    Post operative recovery
    PMT and period pains
    Polycystic ovarian syndrome
    Pregnancy
    Skin conditions: acnes, eczema, fungal infections, psoriasis
    stress
    Tonsillitis
    warts, molluscum

We all have an innate memory or blueprint for well-being, and homeopathic remedies work as our blue print responds to the remedies, as they remind the body to get back to health and they act to stimulate our vital energy.

As a practical homeopath I am trained to find the causes of disease and to take into account the busy and stressful lifestyles that we have in the 21st century and to come up with practical homeopathic strategies to address them.

What Homeopathy Can Do For You

What is homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a natural, safe, gentle, non-invasive, holistic and comprehensive system of medicine.

Homeopathy works by administering small doses of natural substances that match the person's symptoms and their needs.
Homeopathic remedies stimulate the body's own healing mechanisms.

With homeopathy each individual's set of symptoms and their causes are taken into account. Homeopathy treats the individual and not just the disease name itself.

How it works:
Each remedy is unique and acts as a template of information that helps the body when it has got stuck in a rut and it helps the body to move on.

Natural Remedies:
Homeopathy uses natural remedies, which are safe, non-toxic and are non-addictive.
Remedies do not interfere with prescribed medication and can still be of benefit when used alongside conventional medicine
The remedies are either made of small sugary pills that dissolve on the tongue or drops.

Homeopathy is suitable for everyone.
It is suitable for people of all ages with different lifestyles from small babies, children, teenagers, pregnant women, housewives, and busy stressed career people through to the retired and elderly

History of homeopathy:
The founder of homeopathy was a German doctor, Samuel Hahnemann who died in 1843.
Homeopathy has been successfully treating people for over a hundred years and there are 5 NHS homeopathic hospitals in the UK alone.
Homeopathy is used by the Royal family and David Beckham. Wimbledon football club have a homeopath.

Like Cures like:
One of the basic principals of homeopathy is like cures like. An example of this is that coffea is an excellent remedy for someone who can't sleep, is over excited and their brain is in overdrive at night

A system for good health:
Once the body has been encouraged to heal itself, homeopathy can be used to maintain a good level of health

What does a homeopathic consultation involve?
The first consultation usually lasts 90 minutes and then 40 minutes for any follow-ups.
During the consultation the person's current symptoms will be discussed as well as going through medical and family history to establish any patterns that need treating.

Homeopathy Works

Homeopathy - the facts

March 2009: Complementary and Alternative Therapies Backed for NHS Funding

A major Government-funded study, carried out in Northern Ireland and commissiond by the Department of Health, Social Services and Public Safety, found there would be a range of benefits to patients in providing access to complementary and alternative medicine, and that the treatments could even save the health service money.
Treatments administered after referral from local GPs included acupuncture, homeopathy, chiropractic, osteopathy, reflexology and aromatherapy.
The Health Minister in Northern Ireland has made the independent evaluation report available to download on the Department's website. As well as an extensive report with detailed responses from patients, GPs and practitioners, using a validated audit tool, focus groups and surveys, the report has made recommendations about the way forward. www.dhsspsni.gov.uk/index/hss/complementary-alternative-medicine.htm

The Results
Following the pilot, 80% of patients reported an improvement in their symptoms, 64% took less time off work and 55% reduced their use of painkillers.
In the pilot, 713 patients with a range of ages and demographic backgrounds and either physical or mental health conditions were referred to various complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapies via nine GP practices in Belfast and Londonderry.

Homeopathy received the highest percentage of reported improvements : In relation to treatment programme, patients who availed of chiropractic and osteopathy treatments (56%) were less likely to record an improvement in their level of wellbeing, compared with patients availing of acupuncture (77%) and homeopathic treatments (79%).

Health improvement
  • 81% of patients reported an improvement in their physical health
  • 79% reported an improvement in their mental health
  • 84% of patients linked an improvement in their health and wellbeing directly to their CAM treatment
  • In 65% of patient cases, GPs documented a health improvement, correlating closely to patient-reported improvements
  • 94% of patients said they would recommend CAM to another patient with their condition
  • 87% of patient indicated a desire to continue with their CAM treatment

Painkillers and medication
  • Half of GPs reported prescribing less medication and all reported that patients had indicated to them that they needed less
  • 62% of patients reported suffering from less pain
  • 55% reported using less painkillers following treatment
  • Patients using medication reduced from 75% before treatment to 61% after treatment
  • 44% of those taking medication before treatment had reduced their use afterwards

Health service and social benefits
  • 24% of patients who used health services prior to treatment (i.e. primary and secondary care, accident and emergency) reported using the services less after treatment
  • 65% of GPs reported seeing the patient less following the CAM referral
  • Half of GPs said the scheme had reduced their workload and 17% reported a financial saving for their practice
  • Half of GPs said their patients were using secondary care services less

Despite initial scepticism, the GPs involved were almost unanimously in favour after seeing tangible results. In 99% of patient cases GPs said they would refer the patient, or a different patient, to the scheme again and in 98% of cases GPs said they would recommend the service to other GPs. However, they also called for more information to help build their understanding of CAM therapies.

HOMEOPATHY WORKS.....More facts
In 2005 the World Health Organisation brought out a draft report, which showed homeopathy was beneficial. In the past 25 years there have been over 200 trials into homeopathy, the results of which have concluded the benefits of the treatment went beyond results that could be explained by the placebo effect.
In 2005, the Bristol Homeopathic Hospital carried out a published study on 6500 patients. 70% of them showed an improvement in health.

About Carolyne Hallett

I trained at the College for Practical Homeopathy in London where students treat patients in supervised clinics from the start of their training so they leave as experienced and competent qualified homeopaths with 4 years experience on going into practice.

I have been trained to be a homeopathic detective and am able to work out how people get to where they are in terms of their mental and physical health and then to deliver the most effective way of prescribing remedies to address their individual needs.

I am passionate about the benefits of homeopathy.
Homeopathy is a system of health using energetic medicines and as we are energetic beings the results and benefits can be astonishing, as remedies remind our life-force how to heal itself.

As a mother of a teenager I'm used to treating children of all ages as well as their parents and I am familiar with the type of illnesses than can come with different life stages.

Having been a business research consultant working with blue chip clients for many years and prior to that having worked in the music business I am used to the challenges faced by people with stressful and busy lives and know how homeopathy can help address the conditions that can be the result of a twenty first century lifestyle.

As a practical homeopath I prescribe a course of treatment that is safe and effective that is tailored to the specific requirements of each individual.

I often prescribe herbal tinctures, which compliment the homeopathic remedies by supporting and strengthening weaker areas of the body to bring about more energy for healing.

I also prescribe flower essences which provide a gentle way to address a range of emotional states and which work beautifully alongside homeopathic remedies.
Homeopathy can enhance immune system function allowing people to enjoy and sustain good health and well-being.

Patient Testimonials

MH - female - city worker age 27
"In the space of three months I had come down with two serious kidney infections, the second of which I was hospitalized for.
I was medicated with IV antibiotics for four days and when discharged prescribed a further week of oral antibiotics.
Exhausted, fed up and still in quite a bit of pain (bad enough to catch my breath at times) a friend put me on to Carolyne.
If I'm honest I was a little skeptical as this was my first visit to a homeopath, I was finding it hard to believe that natural remedies would help the pain where other medicines had failed.
After meeting with Carolyne I was started on a mixture of remedies straight away. I was told the remedies work by getting to the root of the problem rather than just a temporary fix.
I could not believe that after only two days of taking the remedies the pain in my side had eased dramatically and within the week no trace of it what so ever.
I was absolutely delighted to be feeling as close to normal as I had been in ages. Thankfully I haven't had any problems for seven months now and am very thankful to Carolyne for helping be get back to full health.
I would happily recommend Carolyne and homeopathy to anyone who could benefit from this alternative medicine as I have."


HW - female city worker
"Walking away from my doctor's surgery for the third time in as many months, I was not looking forward to taking yet another course of antibiotics, surely there was another way? Luckily I was introduced to Carolyne through a friend. Carolyne took the time to really listen, ask questions and learn about me as person. Even after our first session, suddenly I had reasons for my ill health and it all began to make sense. More importantly Carolyne could help me. Within a short period of time I was starting to feel better and with Carolyne's help I started to take control of my health.
Carolyne is such a genuinely caring person and is always at hand to answer any questions. Sessions with Carolyne are informative and a real eye opener, even more than that they are fun and I truly believe that anyone who sees Carolyne will gain so much from the experience."


NB - female professional
"I first contacted Carolyne for sleeplessness (waking up at specific times during the night and finding it very difficult to go back to sleep), which, at that point in my life, was linked to a particularly stressful period at work. Other symptoms of this stress included a couple of scary panic attacks, a rash all over my legs, extremely and unusually painful menstruation pains and a general feeling of permanent exhaustion, which was as physical as it was emotional. I was very reluctant to resort to chemical tablets and regular exercise did not prove to be sufficient to induce relaxation. Through a thorough holistic approach, Carolyne was able to understand and identify the particular areas of my body and organs which needed to be worked on through the administration of homeopathic remedies. With the help of appropriate remedies, I was soon able to find restful sleep again and the panic attacks did not re-occur. All other symptoms rapidly subsided and within less than 6 months, I was feeling very healthy again, as well as re-energized. This in turn of course filled me with optimism and a renewed enthusiasm. Homeopathy is a very good alternative approach to traditional medicine because it takes into account the person's body, mind and soul. I felt that Carolyne's warm, open and genuine personality makes her particularly attuned and apt to take into account all three elements in order to provide the best individual remedies and treatment for each particular person."

GU - Male dance therapist - came with hyposplenic diagnosis & was told he would be needing antibiotics long term:
"My homeopathic treatment has allowed me to avoid the use of traditional medicines through cleansing my body and strengthening it's physical resources. This has led to continued stability in mood, energy, psychological and emotional fluctuation. The homeopathic process, and it's valuable support, allows me to trust my own resources and mind-body awareness."
MA DMT. PGCE.

IA - working mother
"I am a 30 year old mother of a toddler and I would like to share my experience with Homeopathic treatments with anyone else who has not been 100% satisfied with conventional medicine: My son, Eddie, was born with eczema and his immune system wasn't strong enough so he keep catching colds now and then.
Since I started using the gentle homeopathic treatments, the eczema has disappeared for good and his general health has improved so much that he is a completely different child.
Therefore, I did start using similar treatments to improve my physical and mental health.
I strongly recommend anyone to avoid conventional medicine as it doesn't really help your body and also recommend Homeopathy as a life style. Good luck"


MC - female - city worker
"In the summer of 2004 I developed a very painful skin condition which manifested in swelling and aching. I went to the Doctor who did various blood tests but could find nothing wrong. He eventually referred me to a dermatologist who diagnosed me with 'vasculis urticaria'. I was put on steroids for a month and advised to take an anti histamine every day. The steroids worked a treat and I was fine, but as soon as they were finished, my symptoms came back with a vengeance! In absolute desperation, I turned to homeopathy and have not looked back since. In just over a month my skin problems were gone and I was feeling healthier all round. I have since used homeopathic remedies prescribed by Carolyne and on her advice have reduced my caffeine intake, cut out sweeteners and various other toxins. I recently had my first baby and once again the homeopathic remedies and tissue salts helped throughout my pregnancy and recovery. I am healthier and happier than ever before and feel good knowing that I am no longer unwittingly poisoning my body. I would recommend seeing a homeopath to everyone."

HC - female - career woman:
"Homeopathy has helped me gain control of my life in many ways. It has helped me understand my body and know what I am feeling when I am feeling it and how to deal with it naturally rather than by suppressing it with allopathic treatment, and living your life with instant gratification.
Apparent physical changes are - I have a normal, almost clockwork cycle, and my immune system is stronger - these being the 2 predominant reasons for me seeking treatment."


CL - female - retailer
"I would like to thank carolyne for helping with my recent eye problem. I was diagnosed by my GP with a cyst on my eyelid. There was no improvement after taking a course of antibiotics, and I was told minor surgery was the next step.
However thanks to a brief course of 2 remedies within a few days of taking them the cyst halved in size and no longer felt sore.
Having continued treatment for a further few weeks the cyst has almost gone and when I attended my appointment at the eye hospital I was told surgery would not be necessary.
I am very pleased and would like to thank Carolyne for her help."


PH - Business owner and father
"Since being treated by Carolyne Hallett, I have experienced a general improvement in my overall health, both physically and emotionally. Carolyne always responds to changes I report with a practical sensitivity towards my overall process. When considering her response, it is always evident that she listens thoughtfully and looks at the bigger picture, before advising on treatment. Carolyne has always advised treatments aiming to bring about enduring change, whilst showing consideration towards my day-to-day sensitivities. Her manner is both friendly, trustworthy and professional."

JK - 49 - housewife & chair of PTFA
"I had always been somewhat sceptical about homoepathy and its beneficial effects. However, after a bout of debilitating illness last year, I decided to try it and was extremely fortunate to have met Carolyne Hallett. I have now been seeing her for over a year, and there is no way I can deny how helpful this has been for me on several levels.

Symptoms I presented with when I first met Carolyne are significantly improved, if still present at all. I feel infinitely better in myself each time I see her - just from spending 45 minutes to an hour with her. Perhaps somewhat selfishly this could be because that time is focused on me! But the benefits are clear - there have been marked improvements for me both physically and psychologically.

I would recommend everyone to try homeopathy - and with whom better than Carolyne. She's a gem and I feel very lucky to have had the chance meeting I had with her. She has improved my life significantly during the past year. Thank you Carolyne."


MF-32 yr old male-manager
"After a particularly difficult family Christmas and stress in work I began to have various symptoms such as a dead arm, dizzy spells and high anxiety. Even the smallest problem seemed magnified and my confidence was at an all time low. After a while I started to collapse
and ended up having an MRI scan. The doctor wanted to put me on anti-depressents, which was something I was opposed to. A friend referred me to Carolyne and the changes have been amazing. Carolyne is very attentive, approachable and extremley supportive but also proactive in
the remedies she prescribes. Each session is very holistic and the remedies I received suited different symptoms. I feel much more positive and energised and have even got a new job and my ability to deal with lifes tribulations has improved ten-fold.

I would thoroughly recommend Carolyne to anyone."
