Welcome to "Health for all the family..Naturally" - Aude Sapere!
Jane Lindsay AROH MAHA– Classical Homeopath – Aude Sapere!
Jane’s passion for Homeopathy started as a result of her own son being treated for eczema whilst still a young baby, when conventional medicine had not brought about “cure”. Homeopathy is a safe, natural & gentle medicine suitable for everyone & can help across a wide variety of acute & chronic illnesses.
Homeopathy treats the “whole person” which means that two people presenting with the same complaint may receive different medicine based on their individual symptoms & emotional response to their illness. Homeopathy was developed by Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician over 250 years ago & is based on the principle of “like curing like”. Homeopathy acts to facilitate the body’s own innate, natural healing processes. Today, extensive clinical experience, observation and research continue to support Homeopathy’s effectiveness for a wide range of complaints for Men, Women, Children, Babies & the elderly.
Prior to coming to Brisbane in 2009 Jane has run a successful practice in S Wales, UK; where she had a special interest in pregnancy, children’s & mother’s health; setting up research into the effectiveness of Homeopathy in childhood illnesses as well as a 5 year health improvement programmes for groups of children from Belarus whose health has been compromised by the world's worst nuclear disaster - Chernobyl 1986.
What is Homeopathy
Homeopathy is a comprehensive system of medicine which treats the “Individual” as well as the disease symptoms. Homeopathy works with the principle of "cure by Similars, " i.e. substances that can cause symptoms in a healthy person are used to cure similar symptoms in someone who is ill.
Homeopathy was developed by a German physician named Samuel Hahnemann in the early 1800s. The homeopathic method made its first pronounced impact during the cholera epidemic of 1832 when, by the accounts of all observers, homeopaths had far higher recovery rates than conventional medical doctors. Today, extensive clinical experience, observation and research continue to support Homeopathy’s effectiveness in both acute & chronic disease.
Homeopathy is precise
A conventional doctor usually focuses on a limited range of symptoms. The homeopath observes and considers the patients physical, mental and emotional state; for disease reveals a disharmony of the whole person. The initial consultation may therefore take up to 1 ½ hours. The homeopathic treatment is fine-tuned until the prescription matches the patient's idiosyncratic symptoms and constitutional make-up. There are no routine prescriptions in Classical homeopathy. For example two children have asthma:
One child is a chubby, complacent, sensitive boy with a tendency to sweat a lot. His asthma attacks occur mostly in the fall and winter. Another boy with asthma is energetic, talkative and likes to pick fights. His asthma occurs mostly at night. These two children, though both with the same condition, need two different homeopathic remedies.
Homeopathy is safe
In the hands of a well-trained homeopath, all homeopathic medicines are safe and without harmful side-effects. Classical homeopaths use a single remedy at any one time and wait a minimum of four to six weeks to re-prescribe. No invasive methods or machines are used in homeopathic treatment.
Homeopathic treatment is long-lasting
The aim of homeopathic treatment is complete cure or lasting remission. Patients who receive homeopathic care usually experience enduring relief from their disorders and a higher level of health and well-being. Homeopathic treatments address the underlying conditions of disease symptoms, so that permanent ease and health are restored. The individual is able to enjoy life more fully. Homeopathy can also enhance palliative care.
Who can benefit from homeopathy?
Individuals who have to live a restricted lifestyle because of allergic reactions and multiple sensitivities. Homeopathic treatment strengthens the immune system, so that the person can lead a life with fewer restrictions and enjoy a greater range of foods and environments.
Individuals who suffer from emotional and mental disorders; e.g., disruptive behaviour disorders, learning and memory disorders, anxiety disorders, phobias, eating disorders, distorted body image, psychotic states, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorders, post-traumatic/abuse disorder.
Individuals who suffer from symptoms that are unresponsive to other treatments and medication; e.g., Myalgic encephalomyelitis, facial tics, Meniere's, restless leg syndrome, non-specific vertigo, chronic pain. Homeopathy treats disorders affecting every system and organ of the body.
Individuals who are on medications with unwanted side-effects and who seek either complementary or an alternative and safe treatment. Homeopathy can work well alongside conventional medicine and may help to reduce or in some cases off their drugs; e.g., steroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatories, antihistamines, antibiotics, hormones, Ritalin, antidepressants, sleeping pills, tranquilizers, antipsychotics, anticonvulsants, immune depressants, hypertension drugs, diuretics, heart medications. Reduction in any conventional drug doses is always the responsibility of the patient to liaise with their MD/GP.
In summary anyone, young or old, male or female, pregnant or in utero may benefit from Homeopathic treatment. Treating children forms a large part of Jane's practice; in particular children who may have been adversely affected by vaccination. These changes may include social and behavioral issues, sleep disturbances or physical symptoms such as asthma, eczema, glue ear etc.
Pregnancy, childbirth and post-partum health concerns also respond very well to Homeopathic treatment and Jane enjoys working with mothers to be to maximise the mother and their baby's health in utero, facilitating positive birthing experiences and good transition into motherhood. Homeopathy offers safe, gentle and effective treatment for the Menopause, Men's Health issues and general well-being for the elderly.
