About Beacon Homeopathy
Individualized and Confidential
Initial consultations last approximately 60 minutes for adults. Children’s consultations last 45-60 minutes. We’ll talk about your concerns and your health history in depth. After the consultation I’ll study your case and do some research to find a homeopathic remedy for you. I’ll send the remedy information via email including instructions for taking it.
Following up after the initial consultation: Once you get started with a homeopathic remedy it’s important to keep in touch with any questions or concerns and to meet for a follow up appointment between 3-6 weeks. During the follow up appointment we will review your symptoms and discuss any changes since starting with the remedy. Our follow ups help to determine whether the remedy has stimulated a healing response and there is continuous improvement. This process is individualized.
If you have a chronic illness that’s been present for many years, effective homeopathic support can take time. I recommend committing to working with a homeopath for at least the initial consult plus two follow up visits (approximately three months) to assess benefit from homeopathy and discover if working with an individual practitioner is right for you.
Acute/short term consultations (ie stomach bug, sore throat, injury, earache) are discussions via phone and email. For an acute problem the homeopath wants to know a lot of details about what’s happening. Example: Because homeopathy is individualized ten people with the same complaint might each need different remedies based on their unique collection of symptoms. Three kids with an earache might each need a different remedy.
*If the acute case is complicated it may make sense to have a longer consultation or multiple consultations. We would discuss this as we work together so there are no surprise fees.
*For chronic cases it is best to schedule follow up sessions periodically. If a telehealth appointment is not possible and a new remedy is needed there is a fee for reworking the case and a new remedy recommendation.
*Note- It is important to maintain contact with your primary physician to monitor your health and in case of emergency. I do not give conventional medical advice.
