Homeopathy is based on the principle of “like cures like”. According to this principle, an illness is treated by a remedy that induces similar symptoms to those suffered by the patient. The dilution of a substance allows the body to build a tolerance and resistance which henceforth allows the body to heal itself naturally. Homeopathy is remedied to suit each individual patient.

Homeopathy was created in 1796 by Samuel Hahnemann and is used worldwide to this day.

Nutritional therapy is holistic in nature. This means that it is meant to treat the whole rather than the individual parts. Medicine often only treats the symptoms of a problem rather than curing the cause of the problem. Nutritional therapy is designed to cure the cause of the problem. By combining science (biochemistry and nutrition) with naturopathy (natural, drug-free medicine), Nutritional therapy seeks to return each patient to a state of optimal health.
