I suffered for many years with migraines and in 2002 I started experiencing disturbing side effects from migraine tablets. I met a homeopath through a friend and decided to go and see her. I was amazed at how in-depth the first consultation was, the questions she asked helped her to build up a picture of me as a whole person. As well as prescribing a homeopathic remedy, she tested me for food intolerences and suggesting changes to my diet. My energy levels improved enormously within a week and the migraines became much less frequent and less intense.
Homeopathy worked extremely well for me so I became more curious about how and why it worked. This led me to study for four years at the British School of Homoeopathy in Bath, graduating in the summer of 2007. I am also a registered member of the Society of Homeopaths and adhere to their code of ethics and professional conduct.
I have a background in science, gaining a degree in chemistry at Sussex University before working in university chemistry and geology research laboratories for many years. With my scientific mind I wanted to see existing evidence supporting homeopathy and was reassured to find there are a huge number of research papers and studies which show it is an effective treatment.
