This book is written specifically to provide information and support for the homoeopathic home prescriber.

Homoeopathic remedies have a long history of effective use for the self-treatment of everyday, simple ailments such as bumps and bruises, bites and stings, colds, coughs, tummy upsets, study and exam problems and many more. Homoeopathy is widely embraced in the United Kingdom, America, Europe and Asia, and to a lesser extent, Australia. In the late 1700's a German doctor, Samuel Hahnemann, discovered a different approach to the cure of the sick called Homoeopathy, which is an effective and scientific system of healing to assist the natural tendency of the body to heal itself. It recognises that symptoms of ill health are expressions of disharmony and that it is the patient who needs treatment not the disease.. A Homoeopathic medicine is understood to act by stimulating a healing response in the body by way of its similarity to the existing complaint. When choosing a remedy we note the important symptoms experienced by the person and select a remedy with a similar 'remedy picture'. A very small dose of that remedy is then administered to stimulate healing. The guidelines in this book are for the treatment of simple and minor complaints. In Homoeopathy emphasis is put on the individuals own unique experience of their symptoms. There is not simply one remedy for a particular illness, but rather one remedy, out of a whole group, which is carefully selected on the basis of each person's own variation of that illness. More than 15,000 Homoeopathy for the Home Prescriber hardcopy booklets have already been sold Australia-wide. The advent of this e-book puts the solution for a myriad of minor health and wellness issues at readers' fingertips, whenever and wherever they need it.
