About Kim Caldwell
Kim is a qualified and registered homeopath, a qualified remedial massage therapist, and holds a Bachelor of Health Science in Complementary Medicine.
Kim has always had a deep interest in wellness, and has worked in health related fields, from nursing to chiropractic, for most of her career. Kim practices in Sydney's inner west; from the Centre of Health, in Five Dock.
Kim’s interest in homeopathy began when one of her children became very sick, and was not able to be adequately helped by the medical system. After trying various options, Kim visited a homeopath and was astounded at the results. Her son has been well since, and she developed an abiding belief in the ability of homeopathy to treat even the most difficult problems. Kim was so impressed that she went on to study and gain her Advanced Diploma of Homeopathy at Nature Care College. To further this knowledge, Kim has studied Dr. Parimal Banerji's Advanced Homeopathy, and has attended the Goa School at the Shri Kamaxidevi Homeopathic Medical College and Hospital in Goa, India.
In addition to her clinical practice, Kim runs regular workshops on the use of homeopathy as a means of family health care in the home. Many minor injuries, including sprains, bruising, bites and stings; and common ailments, including colds, flus, earache, teething and diarrhoea, can be successfully treated at home using homeopathic remedies. Courses are run in small groups and comprise 2 x 2 ½ hour sessions, covering the use of 20 homeopathic remedies to allow you to be prepared for any minor health problem. Courses are run in the clinic setting, or can be arranged at your mothers group, preschool or school group by appointment.
About Homeopathy
Homeopathy is the second most widely used system of medicine in the world. It is a gentle, holistic system of healing suitable for everyone, young and old.
This natural healing process, provides remedies to assist people to regain health, by stimulating the body’s innate healing power.
Homeopathy aims to treat the whole person, taking into account personality, lifestyle and hereditary factors as well as the history of disease. It can treat people of any age or stage in life, including pregnant women and babies.
Homeopathy can treat the symptoms of a wide range of conditions including
Acute complaints - coughs, colds, earaches, food poisoning etc.
Chronic complaints - skin conditions, digestive disturbances, headaches, asthma, arthritis, hormonal imbalances, menopausal symptoms, PMS, mild depression, behavioural problems, etc.
First aid situations - stings, bites, trauma, shock etc
Vague Symptoms - where there is no identifiable cause of disease, but the person feels generally unwell.
How does it differ from conventional medicine?
Unlike conventional medicine which aims to either kill harmful organisms or oppose the resulting local symptoms with drugs, Homeopathic treatment strengthens a person’s health, acting as a catalyst, stimulating and directing the body’s ability to fight disease, and resolving underlying susceptibility to disease.
What to expect in a consultation
Prescribing the right homeopathic remedy takes a little more time and patience than conventional medicine. For chronic conditions, the first consultation will take between 1 and 1 1/2 hours. Simple acute conditions may only take 30-45 minutes.
For your first visit, the homeopath will ask detailed questions about your lifestyle, emotional, mental and physical health, levels of stress, any fears you may have and reactions to aspects of the environment. This level of information is required in order to build up a comprehensive profile of your / your child’s symptoms. On the basis of this profile, the homeopath will work out the most appropriate remedy, matching all your symptoms and individual characteristics to those of the medicine. Two people with the same condition may have very different prescriptions because of their own unique set of symptoms.
A single dose or repeated doses of the medicine may be given. These small amounts of medicine are sufficient to stimulate the body’s healing process. Where the illness has developed over a long time, several successive medicines may be needed.
Why use Homeopathy?
- Homeopathy is extremely effective. When the correct remedy is taken, results can be rapid, complete and permanent.
- Homeopathy is completely safe. Even babies and pregnant women can use homeopathy without danger of side effects.
- Homeopathy can be a gentle, easy and effective way to help children with their illnesses or health issues. It has been used to treat a wide range of conditions such as hayfever, colds and flus, and insomnia. Homeopathy can also be beneficial for children with behavioral or developmental problems and adolescents with study and exam stresses.
- Homeopathic remedies are made from natural substances including plant, mineral and animal remedies.
- Homeopathy works in harmony with your immune system, unlike some conventional medicines which suppress the immune system.
- Homeopathy is holistic. It addresses the cause, not just the symptoms.
