Detoxing with Homeopathy

The New Year is an ideal time to make plans for improving our health and wellbeing. After indulging over the festive period, many of us are keen to ‘detox’ ourselves and start afresh. Detox, short for detoxification is the removal of potentially toxic substances from the body. The health of every organ in the body depends on its ability to eliminate waste products. Detoxification is a practise of resting, cleaning and nourishing the body from the inside out that is known for centuries by many cultures.Many people after the festive season decide to give up the rich foods, alcohol, chocolate etc. and eat more healthily which is often enough to get people back on track but for some its not enough

There are many different types of detox diets and they should be tailored to meet your individual needs.Homeopathy can be an important part of a gentle detoxification program that safely cleanses the organs without side effects. The remedies used stimulate the body’s own natural elimination and detoxing process. Our body has a powerful and sophisticated detoxification process that works to neutralize and excrete toxins. The organs involved in this process include the liver, kidneys, lungs, skin, digestive and lymphatic system.

  • Symptoms of toxicity can include:
  • Tiredness
  • Irritability
  • Restlessness
  • Depression
  • Anger
  • Headaches/migraine
  • Skin rashes
  • Aching joints
  • Allergies/food intolerance
  • Difficulty in losing weight
  • Candida

In Homeopathy a detox programme is designed specific to your needs. Rather than a typical off the shelf prescription of ‘one pill fits all’, after an indepth consultation we prescribe according to your particular requirements. Homeopathic remedies are selected whether to stimulate and improve the organ function, purify the blood, provide drainage, help with water retention or encourage better digestion and absorption. By stimulating the cells to eliminate toxins, improve organ function and redress any areas fo weakness, you can enjoy an increase in vitality and energy and an overall improvements in immune funtion.
