First Time Patients

What can I expect from a visit for homeopathic treatment?

The patient of homeopathy will sit for a homeopathic interview, which may last from 1 1/2 to 3 hours. The practitioner's goal is to elicit as much information as possible (symptoms) about the person's physical, mental, and emotional state, as well as their primary health concern(s). The homeopath delves into the intricacies of a person's nature, and people often report that they enjoy the process and the individualized care they are given. Following the interview a licensed Naturopathic Physician will then perform indicated physical examinations and may want to run some tests to secure a medical diagnosis. The practitioner then chooses a remedy after a methodical analysis of the case. It is likely that a person will move through a series of indicated remedies before they are completely well, all the time moving in the direction of cure. For some with complex cases and a long history of allopathic drug therapies, it may take years, for others like young children with a pure health history, recovery will occur much more quickly.
